Hi, The novel idea behind this bill is to enforce more accountability behind any critical public infrastructure engagement which is what we as taxpayers desperately need due to mostly opaque project management and layers of accountability structure that we have now.
Having said that I do agree that the present draft raises more questions and issues that what it intend to solve. I believe the bill needs to balance the dynamics of technology industry, encouraging innovation, promoting transparency and accountability. I don't necessarily agree with wholesale scraping of the bill but it is critical to make fundamental changes to the content so that it reduces the questions and eventually strenghten the stakeholders I.e. Public, industry, enterpreneurship etc. I'm sure MOSTI has the resources to do this correctly with the stakeholders being in the picture. ihsan -----Original Message----- From: Harisfazillah Jamel <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2011 15:48:32 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Cc: Dunia DIgital<[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Subject: [osdcmy] MOSTI: Stop Computing Professionals Bill 2011 (CPB2011) http://www.change.org/petitions/mosti-stop-computing-professionals-bill-2011-cpb2011 MOSTI: Stop Computing Professionals Bill 2011 (CPB2011) Greetings, I just signed the following petition addressed to: MOSTI. ---------------- Stop Computing Professionals Bill 2011 (CPB2011) If this Bill becomes and Act, it will hamper the growth and innovation that is coming from the ICT sector.
