El John News, Jakarta - President Prabowo Subianto asserts the importance of national data sovereignty as one of the pillars to maintain the integrity of the nation in its competition for digital technology development. It was delivered when receiving the Commonwealth of Indonesian One Data Act at the Presidential Palace Jakarta Thursday (29 / 10 / 2026).

The President's message was delivered through the upload of the Cabinet's Secretary's social media account, @ secretariat.cabinet. In that meeting, Prabwo emphasizes that national data management needs to be amplified so Indonesia can keep information safe and face digitization challenges.

"Mr. President insists that the sovereignty of data is an essential foundation for maintaining the integrity of the nation in the digitized current," as quoted in the upload.

It also talks about drafting Indonesia's One Data Data Act as a platform to build more integrated national data management systems. Discretion involves various elements, starting from DPR RI academics, to the ministry and related agencies.

Through that regulation, data integration is expected to increase the precision of information the government uses in organizing public services. In addition, an integrated information exchange system is also expected to have more powerful security protection.

"Data integration is expected to support more accurate public services, as well as strengthen the security of information exchange and cyber resistance," written in the statement of the Cabinet Secretary.

The drafting of Indonesian One Data Act is directed to form integrated, secure, accountable national data management. With integrated data available, the government is expected to have a more accurate information base in formulating policy or providing service to society.

This attempt has at once become part of the reinforcement of Indonesian sovereignty in managing and utilizing national data, including keeping information in the midst of increasing digital activity.
