Fifth Freedom Online Coalition is to be held on coming Monday. We have approached to listen to the views of D.Jargalsaikhan on digital world who is to participate at FOC representing the civil society.
Our body is existent in real life, but our minds dwell in digital world. In this digital world the important aspect besides the freedom is the matter of online safety.
This is the first of its kind to be organized in Asian region and Mongolia is hosting the international event for 2015.
During the State Visit to United States President of Mongolia has met with the representatives of the leading the digital companies and had invited them to visit Mongolia. Digital world started to play enourmous role in our lives today. Therefore, it is indeed crucial time when each and everyone of us needs to touch upon the online freedom issues. Democracy is not a food that is ready for consumption. We are building it by ourselves, although it takes significant amount of time.
We are spending 1/3 of our lives online. Our body is existent in real life, but our minds dwell in digital world. In this digital world the important aspect besides the freedom is the matter of online safety. There are negative impacts such as privacy breach, bullying and so on. Other countries are strengthening their laws on online and digital matters. While for us this is completely anew.
Majority of Mongolian population is youth and therefore we have involuntarily slid to the digital world. Following this trend media in parallel to conventional means has shifted to social media as well. If in real world we know whom we talk to in digital world it is hard to predict who is at the end. Therefore, one cannot predict his or her actions and cannot assess the impacts of those actions. This is just one example.
One more thing to add is the impact of the digital world on our economic development. Many have the luxury to work online and save their time. Banking transactions are now digitized. We have to ensure the safety and security and the related entities should be paying more attention to this matter.
FOC is not just about gathering together and meet. It should be start to the safe and secure digital world.
