“If the PDP law is passed, and all users of personal data are supervised by an independent body, not under the ministry, of course this accusation of privacy violation would be easier to disprove, and would not generate controversy in the community,” said Puan in an official statement on Monday (18/4).

According to her, the accusation from the US cannot be ignored because it has created public anxiety.
