Telling a Good Hong Kong Story – Assistant Privacy Commissioner Speaks at the 8th National Data Privacy Conference of the Philippines

The Assistant Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (Compliance, Global Affairs and Research), Ms Joanne WONG, along with a representative of the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) attended the 8th National Data Privacy Conference from 27 to 29 May 2025 in Metro Manila, the Philippines. The conference was themed “Global Privacy Matters: Navigating a Borderless Digital World and Expanding New Professional Horizons”.
 
Ms WONG spoke at a panel titled “Accountable AI and Data Protection: Building Foundations for Workforce Transformation” on 28 May, where she discussed the potential privacy risks posed by the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI). She also introduced the AI guidelines published by the PCPD, including the “Artificial Intelligence: Model Personal Data Protection Framework” and the “Checklist on Guidelines for the Use of Generative AI by Employees”.
 
The conference was organised by the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines as part of its Privacy Awareness Week 2025. PCPD executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines in 2023 to foster closer cooperation and to facilitate communication between the two authorities.
