Vietnam to Release Weekly Internet Speed Index

The Department of Telecom at the Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) will publish the weekly index of Vietnam’s Internet quality on its portal starting this month. The release of the Quality of Experience is to protect the interest of Internet users and raise the competitive edge of service providers.

According to a news report, the project was announced by the Vietnam Internet Network Information Centre (VNNIC) on 11 August. The VNNIC will collect the data from its Internet Speed system and publicise the information at the official portal. The released data will help users evaluate the Internet quality themselves. They are also advised to install the i-Speed app, the first Made-in-Vietnam Internet speed measuring app. It can check speed and quality and enables users to send feedback to service providers.

The app was developed by VNNIC from a web-based system to measure internet access quality in Vietnam. Available on iOS and Android platforms, i-Speed helps users check the speed of their Internet connection, including download and upload speeds, ping, and jitter, and quickly evaluates network service quality. Representatives from VNNIC and the Authority of Telecommunications said that i-Speed’s development together with data on Internet access quality has contributed to completing multidimensional statistics on Vietnam’s internet while promoting competitiveness between service providers.

In April, a report explained that figures from i-Speed show that average download and upload speeds across mobile networks reached 40.47 Mbps and 25.73 Mbps, respectively, in the first quarter. Those on fixed broadband were 57.60 Mbps and 47.40 Mbps. Last year, VNNIC joined hands with the Authority of Telecommunications and network service providers to develop internet speed measurement facilities in 30 localities nationwide. Soon, VNNIC will work to upgrade i-Speed to ensure that Vietnam has a safe and modern internet network and to improve the capacity of digital infrastructure to serve national digitalisation goals. Data on the internet connectivity speeds of internet service providers is announced on the official website, helping users choose suitable internet service providers.

In July, OpenGov Asia reported that Vietnam’s Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) adoption rate reached 44%, ranking second in ASEAN and 10th globally, VNNIC said in an effort to switch to IPv6, 44 out of 63 cities and provinces have issued their own action plans. IPv6 is expected to meet Vietnam’s demand to offer new and quality services such as the Internet of Things, 4G-LTE, and 5G networks, contributing to digital transformation and digital government building.

In the first half of this year, many localities such as Vinh Long, Binh Thuan, Hau Giang, Thai Binh, and Ha Tinh rolled out their plans to switch to IPv6. They partnered with the VNNIC to hold training for information technology officers in the field. The VNNIC also recently held a webinar on guidelines for IPv6 address planning for departments of information and communications in the central and Central Highlands regions. In Vietnam, 34 million mobile and 11 million Internet subscribers are using IPv6 services. As of mid-June, over 20% of information and public service portals by municipal and provincial authorities worked on the IPv6 platform.

Singapore: Magnetic Muscle Therapy Reversing Ageing Trends

Digital innovation empowers ageing individuals by promoting better health management, social engagement, cognitive stimulation, safety, and access to resources, ultimately improving their overall quality of life.

While ageing is frequently accompanied by a deterioration in functional mobility, loss of muscle strength, and an increase in body fat, this trend could be reversed thanks to a novel magnetic muscle therapy developed by researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS).

Weekly exposure to very low levels of proprietary pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) using the BIXEPS device invented by NUS researchers in 2019 is associated with significant improvements in mobility and body composition after 12 weeks, particularly in older people, according to a recent community study conducted in Singapore involving 101 participants aged 38 to 91 years old. After three months of magnetic muscle therapy, participants reported reduced pain perception.

Associate Professor Alfredo Franco-Obregón, who led the research team and is a Principal Investigator with NUS iHealthtech and co-founder of QuantumTX, says that the BIXEPS device uses a specific magnetic signature to target the muscles in a user’s leg and create metabolic activity in the cells, just like when a person exercises.

Studies from the past showed that when magnetic muscle treatment was used on one leg after knee surgery, the whole body’s metabolism improved. This was mostly seen as changes in the blood lipid profiles. That is, the effect went beyond just the leg that was treated and led to changes throughout the whole body.

After eight weeks of treatment, 72% of individuals reported improved skeletal muscle maintenance along with reductions in total and visceral fats, with 85% of subjects reporting improvements in functional mobility after 12 weeks, most notably among the elderly.

These encouraging findings suggest that this PEMF-based technology could be a beneficial adjunct to traditional geriatric therapies aimed at lowering the prevalence of frailty and metabolic diseases in the elderly population.

Importantly, visceral fat is an inflammatory fat that has been linked to a variety of metabolic diseases, including diabetes. Previous research has found that people in Southeast Asia retain visceral fat more persistently than persons in other regions of the world, despite exercise.

As a result, people in Southeast Asia get diabetes at a lower BMI than persons of other ethnicities. This has created a significant challenge for the Southeast Asian health business. Researchers finally have a solution to this local healthcare dilemma in the form of magnetic field therapy.

Based on the promising findings of the community study, the team has collaborated with research groups in the United States and Hong Kong to perform randomised controlled clinical studies to further validate the advantages of frailty across various ageing groups.

Since 2022, the team has also begun a senior-focused study with 200 elders across four Singapore community care centres to assess how the technology can improve function and ease chronic problems. This research is projected to be completed in 2023.

Real-world pilot data from current community programmes have also shown promise of improved HbA1c control – the most common measure for diabetes progression – after beginning weekly BIXEPS sessions.

The research team is currently collaborating with the Singapore General Hospital to perform a clinical trial to evaluate further the therapeutic potential of PEMF-based therapies for diabetes progression management.

AI to Accelerate Indonesia’s Banking System

Bernard Widjayam, the Head of the Market Conduct Department at the Financial Services Authority (OJK), underscored the significance of incorporating technology into the oversight of financial service businesses. In his statement, he highlighted the limitations of manual analysis when it comes to efficiently and effectively analysing data on behaviour within the industry.

Manually analysing vast amounts of data related to financial service business behaviour can be a time-consuming task. Furthermore, relying solely on manual analysis can introduce the risk of inefficiencies, inaccuracies, and inconsistencies in the data analysis process. It may lead to a lack of coherence and potentially misleading information.

By leveraging technology in the supervision and monitoring of financial service businesses, the aim is to enhance data analysis’s efficiency, accuracy, and reliability. Automation and advanced algorithms can streamline the process, enabling faster and more comprehensive analysis of behaviour-related information. In turn, facilitates timely and informed decision-making for regulatory authorities and promotes a more transparent and compliant financial services sector.

Implementing technology-driven solutions allows for data collection, processing, and analysis automation. By harnessing advanced analytical tools and techniques, regulatory bodies can uncover patterns, trends, and anomalies in behaviour data that may otherwise be overlooked in manual analysis. This comprehensive and data-driven approach enables a deeper understanding of the industry, identifies potential risks or misconduct, and supports proactive regulatory interventions.

Moreover, using technology to supervise financial service businesses helps establish a consistent and standardised framework for data analysis. It ensures that the analysis is conducted systematically and unbiasedly, reducing the potential for human errors and subjective interpretations. It promotes transparency, fairness, and accountability in assessing behaviour within the financial services industry.

Bernard Widjayam also highlighted the potential use of AI and machine learning technologies in monitoring the offerings of financial products and services through various media channels. By harnessing the power of AI and machine learning, regulatory authorities can enhance their ability to detect and assess potentially misleading or non-compliant advertisements and promotions in the financial services sector.

AI and machine learning algorithms can analyse enormous amounts of data from different sources, such as websites, social media platforms, and online advertisements, to identify patterns and anomalies in the marketing practices of financial service providers. It enables authorities to swiftly identify misleading claims, hidden fees, or unfair marketing tactics that misguide consumers or violate regulatory standards.

Using AI and machine learning technologies can significantly augment the effectiveness and efficiency of regulatory oversight in the digital age. These technologies can automate the monitoring process, flagging suspicious advertisements or promotions for further investigation and reducing the burden of manual monitoring on regulatory authorities.

To promote the digitalisation of activities in BPR/BPRS as outlined in pillar 2 of the Indonesian Banking Development Roadmap, CBI, as the Credit Insurance Management Institution (LPIP), has implemented Artificial Intelligence (AI) and utilised credit scoring for credit application analysis.

Implementing AI in credit application analysis is expected to provide higher efficiency and accuracy. By leveraging AI technology, CBI can process customer data quickly and accurately, identify credit risks, and make more precise credit decisions. Moreover, CBI can evaluate the credit profiles of prospective borrowers based on factors such as credit history, income, and assets. It enables CBI to make objective and fair credit decisions.

With the implementation of AI and the utilisation of credit scoring, CBI can accelerate the credit application process, reduce undesirable credit risks, and improve the overall operational efficiency of BPR/BPRS. This step aligns with the vision of the Indonesian Banking Development Roadmap, which emphasises the importance of digitalisation in enhancing the competitiveness of the banking sector.

The Philippines National Cybersecurity Plan Shaping a Secure Cyber Landscape

The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) invites all stakeholders, advocates, and concerned individuals to submit feedback, comments, and suggestions on the drafted National Cybersecurity Plan (NCSP) 2023-2028 to provide a safe and reliable cyberspace for all Filipinos.

The goal of the public consultation on the draught of the NCSP 2023-2028 is to improve the final document, which is expected to be released by the end of 2023. All parties interested may offer their suggestions and comments to the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Cybersecurity and Upskilling via email at oascu@dict.gov.ph. The outline NCSP 2023-2028 is organised around six (6) pillars, including:

Enactment of the “Cybersecurity Act” to strengthen the policy framework;
Secure and protect Critical Information Infrastructures (CII);
Proactively defend the government and people in cyberspace;
Operational and well-coordinated network of Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) and SOC;
Capacitate workforce in cybersecurity; and
Enhancing international cooperation.

Ivan John E. Uy, secretary of the DICT, emphasised the importance of concerted action from all interested parties to create a trusted, dependable, and safe online environment for Filipinos.

“The NCSP 2023-2028 shows the importance of convergence among all government agencies in delivering our mission. It outlines steps on how each government agency can coordinate all their cybersecurity initiatives through the National Cybersecurity Inter-Agency Committee (NCIAC). It also harmonises all organisation CERT and defined two national-level CERTs,” said Secretary Ivan.

He also stated that there was a steady increase in internet-based transactions during and after the COVID-19 outbreak. The country gradually evolved to cashless transactions as electronic commerce and e-banking became commonplace, mostly because of inventions from the private sector. Cybercrime incidences rose as these advanced.

Cyberthreat actors took use of flaws and vulnerabilities in processes, technology, and human behaviour. In response to these changes, the National Cybersecurity Plan 2023–2028 (NCSP 2023–2028) was created.

The goal of DICT is to give every Filipino access to a trusted, secure, and reliable online environment. This demonstrates the necessity of protecting the government and the public online, as well as the significance of fostering the kind of trust required for online commerce to flourish.

The NCSP’s second iteration drew on the preceding strategy’s results while also demonstrating a policy shift. DICT is now attempting to establish a Cybersecurity Act to balance the economic linkages impacting noncompliance with cybersecurity legislation.

The new strategy also promotes policy based on standards and risk-based methods. Individual organisations, rather than entire sectors, are designated as CIIs if they fail, depending on their size and influence. A renewed emphasis on developing the cyber workforce, as well as the significance of improving international collaboration in cybersecurity, was also emphasised.

Most particularly, the NCSP 2023-2028 demonstrates the importance of collaboration among all government departments in carrying out its mandate. It details how each government agency can use the National Cybersecurity Inter-Agency Committee (NCIAC) to coordinate all their cybersecurity initiatives. It also unifies all organisation CERTs and establishes two national-level CERTs.

Though the NCSP 2023-2028 has a sublime goal, DICT thinks this strategy can be successful with the assistance of all government agencies, the private sector, and all departments of government.

The National Cybersecurity Plan must be developed by DICT in accordance with RA 10844, hence, the National Cybersecurity Plan 2028 (NCSP 2028) draft is meant to serve as a guide for consultations, with the goal of using comments to improve the final version of the NCSP, which is scheduled to be released before the end of 2023.
