[APAC-Discuss] Proposal for APRALO Extraterritorial Legislation WG

[Satish Babu]

Thanks Maureen.

Regulations with extra-territorial jurisdiction impose a significant burden
on compliance on businesses, and GDPR, with its sweeping coverage, provided
a good example. The issue is compounded when businesses have to
simultaneously comply to multiple laws that may have conflicting
requirements.

With topics such as data sovereignty, data protection and cross-border data
flows assuming importance in different parts of the region, APRALO
considers it useful to document and analyze the status of such legislation
within the APAC region. Consequently, we were happy to support Yeseul when
she proposed such an initiative.

We will be shortly calling for members to this WG, and once the members
have joined, we will be discussing the terms of reference (such as the
mandate/remit, term and outcomes) of the WG with them. I'd like to request
anyone interested in the topic to join the effort.

With kind regards,






satish
