Abstract

This article evaluates the efficacy of Indonesia's data protection laws in bolstering the foundations of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), characterized by dynamism, productivity, and competitiveness. The AEC is required to evaluate the interrelated policies of all subjects and member nations. Policy countries may encounter prevalent economic challenges. Consequently, they must be adequately prepared. Indonesia must enhance its output in terms of quantity while ensuring quality development to remain competitive within the AEC, particularly in the highly competitive economic regions, as the second pillar of AEC 2015. It will be achieved through multiple collaborations, particularly in the domain of e- commerce policy. The e-ASEAN framework outlines several strategic metrics in this context. The primary concerns include the suitability of the operating system, security measures, the accuracy of the framework, the reliability of electronic identity, signature authorization, and comprehensive protection of personal data. This paper utilizes a descriptive-analytic approach through normative legal research, referencing legal sources, including the ASEAN Framework on E- Commerce, the Indonesian Law on Commerce, and the Law on Personal Data Protection. The study suggests that Indonesia should advocate for the focused and efficient enactment of personal data protection rules to synchronize with the evolving foundations of productivity, competitiveness, and efficiency within the AEC. Cross-border data transmission among ASEAN member nations is essential for facilitating e-commerce transactions. The government is obligated to safeguard consumer interests. The findings of this study influence the Indonesian government's strategies for enforcing personal data privacy in e-commerce.
