MOS Rahayu Mahzam 在巴西马塞约（Maceió）G20 数码经济部长级会议上的发言（2024 年 9 月 13 日）
优先议题 1：数字包容、普遍且有意义的连通性
优先议题 2：数字政府——构建可信、包容的数字公共基础设施
尊敬的主席
各位阁下
早安。我代表新加坡感谢巴西主席国主办本次 G20 数码经济部长级会议、并感谢各位的盛情款待。感谢邀请新加坡参与这些重要讨论。我也和身在马塞约的同行与朋友们一道——感谢主席国对全年 G20 数码经济讨论的卓越领导。
在第一项优先议题上——我们欢迎主席国对「数字包容、普遍且有意义连通性」的贡献。新加坡尤其相信——「不只是给人们提供硬件——还要给他们『有意义参与在线、并安全且彼此尊重地参与』的技能」。在新加坡——我们已经在《新加坡数字社会报告》中开始度量「访问与技能」。该报告跟踪新加坡数字社会的状态——并就「构建包容数字社会」提出建议。我们期待与国际社会更多合作——开发能帮我们打磨「数字包容」工作的指标。
话虽如此——仅靠政府努力来确保数字包容与在线安全是远远不够的。与利益相关方协作——弥合数字鸿沟、推动安全积极的数字空间——至关重要。我们赞赏巴西主席国——不仅与 G20 国家与嘉宾合作，也与其他利益相关方合作——让我们能作为「生态」推进这一共同愿景。
我也很高兴——在第二项优先议题（数字政府与包容性数字公共基础设施）上有进展。我们的生活越来越多地搬到在线——把数字服务在线化也是「拓宽访问」的关键变革——尤其对那些「服务不足或难以触达」的群体——比如农村社区、行动不便者。今年关于「开放、包容、可互操作的数字公共基础设施」的重要工作与讨论——为「帮助大小国家给公民提供这种服务」的全球努力——再添一份贡献。
数字公共基础设施的关键一环是「数字身份」。15 岁以上新加坡公民与永久居民中——超过 97% 已拥有数字身份——可与 800 多家政府机构与私营组织、跨 2,700 多项服务进行交易。多年来——我们在推出数字身份方面学到了许多——无论是「技术或安全创新」，还是「在 4 种官方语言上做包容」。我们相信——分享这种经验——在我们的数字转型旅程上彼此学习——是有用的。我们因此欢迎主席国就「数字身份治理」的总体原则——为国际社会发展出有用的最佳实践与标准。
谢谢。
优先议题 3：在线信息完整性与数字经济信任
优先议题 4：AI 服务包容可持续发展与不平等减少
感谢主席。
第三项优先议题（在线信息完整性与数字经济信任）——是所有国家的关键关切——尤其当数字技术无缝整合进我们的日常生活时。在线空间充满机会——但也带来误导信息、虚假信息、诈骗等风险。技术与法规能帮助我们缓释一部分——但每个人也必须承担起保护自己的责任。政府、产业与公民社会——必须协作——推动数字素养、构建网络韧性、培育对移动数字生态的信任。我们赞赏巴西主席国把这一议题列为优先。
为对抗误导与虚假信息——新加坡引入了一组针对性的立法杠杆——包括《保护免受网络谎言与操纵法》（POFMA）与《反外国干预对策法》。这些工具让政府能迅速回应误导信息、虚假信息与「敌对信息行动」——这些威胁会侵蚀我们对社会（包括对机构与选举）的信任。我们承诺继续构建必要的技术能力——回应误导与虚假信息不断演化的威胁。为应对这些议题与其他在线伤害——我们今年成立了「在线安全先进技术中心」（Centre for Advanced Technologies in Online Safety）——它将帮助我们开发工具，构建更安全的在线生态。
一个安全、稳定、可信、开放、可互操作的网络空间——是收获数字经济好处的关键。除了监管——公私合作——也是培育数字经济信任的必要。我们需要持续与科技公司对话——鼓励他们做更多——加强网络安全姿态、确保其功能不被滥用。新加坡政府也优先推动媒体素养与公众教育——赋能个人——批判性评估信息、保护自己免受谎言侵害——包括培育良好的网络卫生习惯。
AI 生成的误导信息与深度伪造——尤其在选举语境下——是日益增长的共同关切。和其他国家一样——新加坡也在研究——如何在选举等关键时期进一步保护自己——免受 AI 生成的误导信息与深度伪造。本周早些时候——我们提交了《选举（线上广告完整性）法案》——拟禁止「在选举期间——以深度伪造或其他数字生成/操纵的方式——展现候选人说或做他们并未说或做的事」。这一举措凸显了新加坡政府对「在选举期间与平时都培育安全信息空间」的承诺。
新加坡欢迎第四项优先议题（AI 服务包容可持续发展与减少不平等）。新加坡相信——AI 具有变革力量——AI 能用于公共利益——为新加坡，也为世界。在这一愿景指引下——我们去年 12 月发布了更新版《国家 AI 战略》。更新版战略涉及——积极参与 AI 研究与部署——并在先进制造、金融服务、医疗、教育、公共服务等领域为有说服力的用例规模化 AI。新加坡公共部门也已拥抱 AI——大模型与我们自家的安全版 ChatGPT——被公职人员用来提升生产力。包容是我们《国家 AI 战略》的关键一面。AI 技术必须以「惠及包括小国在内的所有人」的方式开发与部署。2022 年——我们启动了「Digital Forum of Small States」——为小国提供一个交流空间——交换数字转型经验、共塑共同的数字未来——也包括 AI 治理。
感谢巴西主席国给我们机会——在 G20 数码经济通道上分享新加坡经验、向他人学习。这种交流让我们彼此学习、培育合作。临近本届会议尾声——也请允许我祝贺这次非常成功的「数码经济部长级会议」。
谢谢。

MOS RAHAYU MAHZAM’S INTERVENTIONS AT G20 DIGITAL ECONOMY MINISTERIAL MEETING IN MACEIÓ, BRAZIL (13 SEP 2024)
Priority Issue 1: Digital Inclusion, Universal and Meaningful Connectivity
Priority Issue 2: Digital Government: Building a Trustworthy and Inclusive Digital Public Infrastructure
Distinguished Chair
Excellencies
Good morning. I would like to express Singapore’s appreciation to the Brazilian Presidency for hosting the G20 Digital Economy Ministers’ Meeting and for the warm hospitality. Thank you for inviting Singapore to participate in these important discussions. I join colleagues and friends here in Maceió in also expressing appreciation to the Chair for the excellent leadership of the G20 Digital Economy discussions throughout the year.
On priority issue 1, we welcome the Presidency’s contribution to Digital Inclusion, Universal and Meaningful Connectivity. In particular, Singapore strongly believes that it is not just about providing people with hardware, but also the skills to meaningfully participate online, and do so safely and respectfully. In Singapore, we had already begun some early work in measuring access and skills in our Singapore Digital Society Report. This report tracks the state of digital society in Singapore and recommends ways to build an inclusive digital society. We look forward to more cooperation with the international community to develop indicators that can help us sharpen our efforts in ensuring digital inclusion.
That said, government efforts alone will only go so far in ensuring digital inclusion and online safety. It is crucial to work with stakeholders to close the digital divide and promote safe, positive digital spaces. We commend the Brazilian Presidency for working with not only G20 countries and guests but also other stakeholders so that we can work as an ecosystem to advance our common vision on this front.
I am also pleased that there has been progress on priority issue 2 on Digital Government and Inclusive Digital Public Infrastructure. More of our lives are moving online, and providing digital services online has also been a game-changer in enabling access – especially to underserved and hard-to-reach groups, such as communities in rural areas or persons with mobility challenges. To this end, our important work and discussions this year on open, inclusive and interoperable Digital Public Infrastructure adds to a global effort around helping countries large and small provide such services to their citizens.
A crucial part of Digital Public Infrastructure is digital identity. More than 97% of Singapore citizens and Permanent Residents aged 15 and above have a digital identity and transact with over 800 Government agencies and private sector organisations across more than 2,700 services. Over the years, we have learned many lessons in rolling out digital identity, whether in terms of technical or security innovations, or inclusivity where we accommodate Singapore’s four official languages. We believe that sharing such experiences is useful as we all learn from each other in our digital transformation journeys. We therefore welcome the Presidency’s effort to develop general principles on the governance of digital identity, which can be a useful best practice and standard for the international community.
Thank you.
Priority Issue 3: Integrity of Information Online and Trust in the Digital Economy
Priority Issue 4: AI for Inclusive Sustainable Development and Inequalities Reduction
Thank you Chair.
Priority issue 3 on Integrity of Information Online and Trust in the Digital Economy is a key concern to all countries, especially as digital technologies are seamlessly integrated into our daily lives. The online space, while full of opportunities, also comes with risks such as misinformation, disinformation and scams. Technology and regulations can help us mitigate some of these risks, but every individual must play their part in protecting themselves. Government, industry and civil society must collaborate to promote digital literacy, build cyber resilience and foster trust in the mobile digital ecosystems. We commend the Brazilian Presidency for highlighting this as a priority issue.
To combat misinformation and disinformation, Singapore has introduced a suite of targeted legislative levers, including the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act and the Foreign Interference Countermeasures Act. These provide the Government with the ability to swiftly address misinformation, disinformation, and hostile information campaigns that threaten to erode trust in our society, including trust in our institutions and elections. We are committed to continue building the necessary technological capabilities to respond to the evolving threat of misinformation and disinformation. To address these issues and other online harms, we established the Centre for Advanced Technologies in Online Safety this year. The Centre will allow us to develop tools to build a safer online ecosystem.
A secure, stable, trusted, open and interoperable cyberspace is crucial to reap the benefits of the digital economy. Beyond regulation, public-private partnerships are necessary to fostering trust in the digital economy. We need continued conversations with tech companies to encourage them to do more to strengthen their cybersecurity posture and ensure that their features are not exploited. The Singapore Government also prioritises media literacy and public education. These empower individuals to critically evaluate information and protect themselves against falsehoods, including through fostering good cyber hygiene habits.
AI-generated misinformation and deepfakes, especially in the context of elections, is a growing shared concern. Like other countries, Singapore is looking at ways to further protect ourselves against AI-generated misinformation and deepfakes during critical periods like our elections. Early this week, we tabled the Elections (Integrity of Online Advertising) Bill which proposes to prohibit deepfakes and other digitally generated or manipulated online depictions of electoral candidates, shown saying or doing something that they did not say or do during the election period. This measure underscores the Singapore Government’s commitment to foster a safe information space, both during and outside of elections.
Singapore welcomes priority issue 4 on AI for Inclusive Sustainable Development and Inequalities Reduction. Singapore believes in the transformative power of AI and that AI can be used for the public good, for Singapore and the world. Guided by this vision, we released our updated National AI Strategy last December. The updated strategy involves active participation in AI research and deployment, and scaling up AI for compelling use cases in areas like advanced manufacturing, financial services, healthcare, education and public services. The public service of Singapore has also embraced AI. Large learning models and our own secure version of ChatGPT are used by public officers to improve productivity. Inclusivity is a key aspect of our National AI Strategy. AI technologies must be developed and deployed in a way that benefits everyone including small states. In 2022, we launched the Digital Forum of Small States aimed at providing a space for small states to exchange ideas on our digital transformation journeys, and forge a common digital future, including on AI governance.
We thank the Brazilian Presidency for the opportunity to share Singapore’s experience and to learn from others in this G20 Digital Economy track. Such exchanges allow us to learn from each other, and foster collaboration. As we approach the end of this Session, may I also add my congratulations on the very successful Digital Economy Ministers’ Meeting.
Thank you.
