Objectives

• The key purpose of the Asian Info-communications
  Council is to support the sound development of
  telecommunications infrastructure, and contribute
  to the socio-economic development and improvement
  of the standards of living in the Far East Asia
  countries and member countries of the Association
  of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) by advancing
  the development of information and communications
  infrastructures through joint studies and
  research activities undertaken on an equal
  status.
• The Constitution of the AIC states that the
  council shall promote the following
• Greater mutual understanding among member
  countries on the modernization of
  Info-communications
• Exchange of views and opinions and/or research
  results, and development of human resources in
  the field of Info-communications technologies
• Contribution to the international standardization
  of Info-communications technology, in particular
  with reference to the international
  recommendation on standardization.

19
Organizational structure and research themes

• AIC is composed of a management committee, a
  general assembly, and working groups (WGs). The
  management committee, which is the AICs highest
  decision-making body, is made up of the
  supervising government agencies of each member
  country, and its role is to discuss and make
  decisions regarding matters such as the structure
  of AIC, its operation and management, its
  research themes, and extensions to its sessions.
  The general assembly is a forum for the exchange
  of opinions, in which all council members can
  participate, and it is also used for announcing
  country status reports and communicating the
  decisions made by the Management Committee.
• In the first term and second term there were
  only two WGs in operationWG1, dealing with
  technology, and WG2, dealing with services and
  applicationsbut in the third term a new WG was
  addedWG3, dealing with regulations and policies,
  and projects relating to information and
  communications infrastructure. At the end of the
  third term, a special session on a designated
  theme was added in order to stimulate discussion.
  Thus, there are finally three WGs plus one
  session in the research system of the AIC.

20
Organizational structure and research themes(2)

• The research themes of the AIC are set at the
  Management Committee Meeting, to reflect changes
  in the telecommunications environment.
• During the first term, when the member countries
  were at the stage of preparing to develop ISDN
  systems there was a need for personnel training,
  so the focus of the council was on concrete tasks
  such as the collaborative creation of guidebooks
  and handbooks relating to ISDN by WG1, aimed at
  facilitating the launch of these services.
• At the same time, WG2 surveyed the planning and
  development status of each member country,
  summarizing its findings in the form of a
  handbook.
