The three key elements of smart city development are the focus of development in the implementation of urban areas in line with the mandate of Indonesian Government Regulation Number 59 of 2022 concerning Urban Areas as well as the implementation of SNI ISO 37122 concerning Smart Cities, he noted.

He said that such ideas will be proposed to the framework submitted to the ASEAN Smart City Network (ASCN).

Amran stressed the importance of cooperation between ASEAN countries and international partners, such as Japan, to jointly promote innovation and technology application.

He further emphasized the need for collaboration among ASEAN member countries and cooperation with partners, such as Japan, to realize innovation and utilization of technology.

The ASEAN-Japan Smart Cities Network High-Level Meeting was held for the sixth time in Tokyo in late October.
