The Ministry of Information and Communications needs to work with the security sector to enhance cyber security; the Ministry of Social Welfare needs to work with the security sector to combat human trafficking, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs must continue to cooperate with the security sector to combat crimes against our nationals in foreign lands.

We must push forward this paradigm shift to enhance our collective security and development. The time has come to work towards the inclusion of all in matters relating to national security.”
