Organisations compelled to have at least one Data Protection Officer

To oversee compliance with the PDPA.

The Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) has required organisations to designate at least one Data Protection Officer to oversee the organisations' compliance with the PDPA.

The mandate is just one of many advisory guidelines PDPC has formulated following public feedback. The guidelines are meant to aid understanding of the Personal Data Protection Act or PDPA, which will fully come into effect next year by 2 Jul 2014.

One set of advisory guidelines focuses on the key concepts, while the other will focus on how the PDPA applies to selected topics and domains.

The full guidelines can be read here.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
