WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:14.000
I'm going to talk about this here, but before that, I will give you some introduction by myself,

00:14.000 --> 00:18.000
not telling myself, just give you what kind of perspective I'm sharing fun.

00:18.000 --> 00:24.000
Okay, so I have a background in, I have a background in law, so I'm actually a model

00:24.000 --> 00:30.000
that I'm not a developer or tech people, but I enter in the tech industry 10 years ago,

00:30.000 --> 00:33.000
and then I went to the public sector and working on the tech.

00:33.000 --> 00:38.000
And now I'm in a NGO called the open structure foundation,

00:38.000 --> 00:43.000
and we are actually like, we are a legal entity of old Taiwanese open source communities,

00:43.000 --> 00:47.000
which means if they need to talk to the government and they need some government paperwork,

00:47.000 --> 00:50.000
they will come to us and we will support them as well.

00:50.000 --> 00:52.000
They won't get a grain of subsidy, this kind of things.

00:52.000 --> 00:56.000
And I will give you a clear understanding, like what this topic will be,

00:56.000 --> 01:00.000
slightly about government perspective, slightly about parliament perspective,

01:00.000 --> 01:03.000
and I was so slightly about community perspective,

01:03.000 --> 01:07.000
because actually I really have a complete background.

01:07.000 --> 01:11.000
Like I started with the marketing manager, so a little bit about industry,

01:11.000 --> 01:15.000
and then I went to a legislative union, become a legislative assistant,

01:15.000 --> 01:21.000
and this is actually our parliament, and I work on one of our legislature.

01:21.000 --> 01:25.000
And I have become a local government officer,

01:25.000 --> 01:30.000
during the COVID time, and mainly work with the community to actually come back to COVID.

01:30.000 --> 01:34.000
And one of my partners is we probably know about it,

01:34.000 --> 01:38.000
it's actually the one initiating the mask map in Taiwan.

01:38.000 --> 01:42.000
So one of the case, and I went to Molda Ministry of Digital Fair,

01:42.000 --> 01:47.000
and I actually responsible for implementing public code policy,

01:47.000 --> 01:51.000
and kind of drive it and plan it, and then I let's hear a laugh

01:51.000 --> 01:53.000
and went into open-scout your foundation.

01:53.000 --> 01:58.000
So always, I see myself like a spy, and a two-spaces spy.

01:58.000 --> 02:02.000
It's hard to say, like, which one I'm really for, community or government.

02:02.000 --> 02:07.000
But by this girl, that's why I can share actually different perspectives from two-side,

02:07.000 --> 02:11.000
and also let you know, like, what's really happening in Taiwan

02:11.000 --> 02:14.000
from both community perspective, and also go and message,

02:14.000 --> 02:19.000
as a whole, the battle neck, and try to kind of bring a breach to each other.

02:19.000 --> 02:21.000
So we will start a little bit about Taiwan,

02:21.000 --> 02:25.000
an episode history, it just gives you some ideas, and I will kind of fly through it,

02:25.000 --> 02:28.000
so we can talk more about the reality right now.

02:28.000 --> 02:31.000
So we pretty much start our open source culture,

02:31.000 --> 02:35.000
like different trends or developments since 1990s,

02:35.000 --> 02:38.000
so it's almost 40 years ago.

02:38.000 --> 02:42.000
Yeah, and it went up in those for sure, everything,

02:42.000 --> 02:46.000
and I actually put it into four different stages.

02:46.000 --> 02:49.000
So the first ten year will more like a Sikh stage.

02:49.000 --> 02:52.000
So people start milking about what open source is,

02:52.000 --> 02:56.000
as some people are talking about it, and they will come to early stage.

02:56.000 --> 03:00.000
A lot of things start for sports, and SO start developing,

03:00.000 --> 03:05.000
and we have a high expansion, and also kind of mature stage to 2020.

03:05.000 --> 03:08.000
But I have a sense right now, we're probably in the donned road,

03:08.000 --> 03:10.000
but I will share you later.

03:10.000 --> 03:14.000
And during the early stage, let's actually,

03:14.000 --> 03:17.000
when the Parliament first come in,

03:17.000 --> 03:21.000
like since 2020 is 2000, like,

03:21.000 --> 03:24.000
actually one of our academic institutions,

03:24.000 --> 03:27.000
in Taiwan, we already started studying open source,

03:27.000 --> 03:32.000
and helping to educate students about what open source is.

03:32.000 --> 03:36.000
So our miniature of education, even have courses about open source at a lot of time.

03:36.000 --> 03:40.000
So most of the young engineers, who people who started engineering,

03:40.000 --> 03:44.000
actually know a little bit about open source comes to that time.

03:44.000 --> 03:48.000
And probably because of this trend, in the next expansion stage,

03:48.000 --> 03:52.000
we have so many new community actually start coming up.

03:52.000 --> 03:56.000
Like, most of them as one is got zero, they use the concept of open source

03:56.000 --> 04:00.000
to solve all kinds of social issue.

04:00.000 --> 04:04.000
And also, we have a huge protects in 2014.

04:04.000 --> 04:08.000
It's also connected with the government role.

04:08.000 --> 04:12.000
Basically, we actually occupy our legislative.

04:12.000 --> 04:15.000
We occupy our parliament in 2014.

04:15.000 --> 04:18.000
And they kind of build our older digital infrastructure.

04:18.000 --> 04:21.000
So we can communicate with outside.

04:21.000 --> 04:24.000
Yeah. And other culture foundation also funded then.

04:24.000 --> 04:27.000
Because at that time, we become really strong.

04:27.000 --> 04:30.000
So they started to have their own roles.

04:30.000 --> 04:34.000
Sometimes, as a community, it's actually hard for people to find

04:34.000 --> 04:36.000
who's responsible authority.

04:36.000 --> 04:39.000
That's why all the community decide to fund it.

04:39.000 --> 04:41.000
Open culture foundation together.

04:41.000 --> 04:44.000
And that's why we're also community big up.

04:44.000 --> 04:47.000
And also, we even started a student information

04:47.000 --> 04:48.000
technology conference.

04:48.000 --> 04:49.000
We call it Sikha.

04:49.000 --> 04:52.000
Which this is actually forcing a younger generation.

04:52.000 --> 04:56.000
Because for in a former state, we're actually talking to college

04:56.000 --> 04:57.000
and university student.

04:57.000 --> 05:00.000
But let's say currently targeting on high school student.

05:00.000 --> 05:04.000
So actually, we got even, like, read it.

05:04.000 --> 05:05.000
Yeah.

05:05.000 --> 05:08.000
And then the culture and materials say, and, yeah.

05:08.000 --> 05:09.000
I'm sorry.

05:09.000 --> 05:10.000
Oh, I didn't understand.

05:10.000 --> 05:11.000
Okay.

05:11.000 --> 05:14.000
So at that time, I was just talking to myself.

05:14.000 --> 05:16.000
So at that time, you're probably already now, like,

05:16.000 --> 05:19.000
ODOTON actually can into the ministry.

05:19.000 --> 05:21.000
And really, as a time community,

05:21.000 --> 05:24.000
actually answer the governments.

05:24.000 --> 05:27.000
And a lot of people probably couldn't meet also

05:27.000 --> 05:30.000
until the government, like, trying to sell actually

05:30.000 --> 05:33.000
a lot of community voice actually get in.

05:33.000 --> 05:36.000
But the things really go well.

05:36.000 --> 05:38.000
Well, I showed you the press.

05:38.000 --> 05:39.000
So it's not so good.

05:39.000 --> 05:40.000
And I will tell you why.

05:40.000 --> 05:45.000
So in 2020, in 2020, 3, we actually have

05:45.000 --> 05:48.000
the public policy policy in Taiwan.

05:48.000 --> 05:52.000
And for, I guess most of you already know about public

05:52.000 --> 05:57.000
policy policy, but I was still differentiated with open source a little bit

05:57.000 --> 05:59.000
and tell you what's a different.

05:59.000 --> 06:02.000
So open source is now, I think, I'll be simple.

06:02.000 --> 06:04.000
Listen, by the way, it's like, you made a call.

06:04.000 --> 06:06.000
You show it all under the Southern Africa right?

06:06.000 --> 06:09.000
Public call is, and it's more like, in Dr.

06:09.000 --> 06:11.000
or community-based behavior.

06:11.000 --> 06:14.000
But when we have a public call, we actually target in

06:14.000 --> 06:17.000
government, which means government should actually open up

06:17.000 --> 06:21.000
their software code to the people.

06:21.000 --> 06:23.000
Because it's pretty much money.

06:23.000 --> 06:25.000
So supposedly people should own it.

06:25.000 --> 06:26.000
But not in the reality.

06:26.000 --> 06:29.000
Most of the time, like, you cannot really know what kind of

06:29.000 --> 06:31.000
algorithm is actually inside.

06:31.000 --> 06:34.000
A whole kind of software that actually using inside

06:34.000 --> 06:35.000
in the government.

06:35.000 --> 06:38.000
And that's why we like to kind of challenge it.

06:38.000 --> 06:40.000
So, at the time, we launched it.

06:40.000 --> 06:44.000
And we hope like in the non-sensitive software code,

06:44.000 --> 06:47.000
we'll be seeing a digital public goods.

06:47.000 --> 06:50.000
And also, like, you have like, universal assets,

06:50.000 --> 06:54.000
like public, secretary, NSL, make it share the community

06:54.000 --> 06:58.000
driven value, which means that we hope by opening up it,

06:58.000 --> 07:02.000
we're actually also open up creation from the public.

07:02.000 --> 07:04.000
You can now become part of it.

07:04.000 --> 07:08.000
Not just public service, it's a developer of the public

07:08.000 --> 07:09.000
software.

07:09.000 --> 07:11.000
All of the people can actually have a chance.

07:11.000 --> 07:13.000
So you can hear the old return.

07:13.000 --> 07:17.000
And we actually engage with the six biggest city in Taiwan

07:17.000 --> 07:19.000
to launch this policy.

07:19.000 --> 07:22.000
And what we will really do, the first that we actually

07:22.000 --> 07:25.000
have a data base, we code it code.gov.tw.

07:25.000 --> 07:29.000
So the, all those public software, all the government

07:29.000 --> 07:32.000
software is already, that is open up already.

07:32.000 --> 07:34.000
We'll be put up there.

07:34.000 --> 07:38.000
So you can easily find, like, if you want,

07:38.000 --> 07:39.000
you can go check it.

07:39.000 --> 07:43.000
And if you see certain kind of software is usable for you.

07:43.000 --> 07:45.000
Then you can just download it through GitHub.

07:45.000 --> 07:47.000
And let's just do whatever you want.

07:47.000 --> 07:49.000
And so you can also contribute back.

07:49.000 --> 07:52.000
And the other thing, we know, like, behind open source

07:52.000 --> 07:56.000
or public code, they cannot be just a vendor or just a people.

07:56.000 --> 07:59.000
There's a big community.

07:59.000 --> 08:00.000
There'll be an ecosystem.

08:00.000 --> 08:04.000
And we also want to make sure all this policy is still a

08:04.000 --> 08:08.000
really community base, a button up behavior policy.

08:08.000 --> 08:10.000
So we still work with the community.

08:10.000 --> 08:14.000
We, even, we actually annually will have different kind of

08:14.000 --> 08:17.000
software solution, co-out to the people.

08:17.000 --> 08:20.000
And you can actually develop it for a government.

08:20.000 --> 08:22.000
We will have grandfathered.

08:22.000 --> 08:25.000
And also if you recognize, then we'll use it.

08:25.000 --> 08:27.000
And also put it as a public code.

08:27.000 --> 08:30.000
And some of them will be showcased is actually showcasing

08:30.000 --> 08:32.000
the building K right now.

08:32.000 --> 08:35.000
So if you're interested, you can go visit later.

08:35.000 --> 08:40.000
And also for sure, we have involvement for the public

08:40.000 --> 08:41.000
7.

08:41.000 --> 08:44.000
Because you might can easily notice, like, there's probably

08:44.000 --> 08:47.000
a really new concept for a lot of people, especially

08:47.000 --> 08:48.000
public 7.

08:48.000 --> 08:52.000
So we have different courses or engagement with it.

08:52.000 --> 08:54.000
But have you ever had a question?

08:54.000 --> 08:58.000
I talked so many things about what we do with the public policy.

08:58.000 --> 09:02.000
Why we want to do it?

09:02.000 --> 09:05.000
Actually, there's three things that we talk about.

09:05.000 --> 09:06.000
Why is cost on?

09:06.000 --> 09:09.000
Because, like, Taiwanese government actually spend a lot

09:09.000 --> 09:13.000
of money, just like Europe, or join the EU policy

09:13.000 --> 09:15.000
summit yesterday.

09:15.000 --> 09:17.000
And I know, like, both of us spend a lot of money

09:17.000 --> 09:19.000
to certain countries, then to.

09:19.000 --> 09:20.000
Yeah.

09:20.000 --> 09:23.000
And actually, they're raising most of their fee right now.

09:23.000 --> 09:25.000
So that's the same we want to cost on.

09:25.000 --> 09:28.000
And the other thing is interoperability.

09:28.000 --> 09:31.000
So we want to make sure, yeah, like, this is Taiwanese

09:31.000 --> 09:34.000
sweet potato fries, but no matter is the American,

09:34.000 --> 09:38.000
Belgian, or French fries, usually look like this.

09:38.000 --> 09:40.000
We want to make sure everyone understanding

09:40.000 --> 09:41.000
can use it.

09:41.000 --> 09:42.000
Everything's connected.

09:42.000 --> 09:44.000
And also transparency.

09:44.000 --> 09:48.000
Because you may have noticed earlier,

09:48.000 --> 09:49.000
that we talked about garbage raw.

09:49.000 --> 09:52.000
Gov never comes from an open data.

09:52.000 --> 09:54.000
So already, the community have a really high openness

09:54.000 --> 09:55.000
sense.

09:55.000 --> 09:58.000
So we also want to go for transparency of all

09:58.000 --> 09:59.000
reasons.

09:59.000 --> 10:03.000
It's a sea of parts of over-government and diplomacy.

10:03.000 --> 10:06.000
But this street actually is not a lion.

10:07.000 --> 10:09.000
Yeah, so I have to tell you the ugly shoes.

10:09.000 --> 10:12.000
We don't really have a men purpose.

10:12.000 --> 10:15.000
We just kind of find it is really important.

10:15.000 --> 10:18.000
But we really haven't cut out a strong narrative,

10:18.000 --> 10:21.000
like, why is this important to implement it?

10:21.000 --> 10:24.000
And I will say, this is one reason why we actually fall.

10:24.000 --> 10:26.000
So I will make it fun.

10:26.000 --> 10:28.000
Well, this is one of the things we really like

10:28.000 --> 10:29.000
in Taiwan, the hot pot.

10:29.000 --> 10:31.000
We just put everything we like.

10:31.000 --> 10:33.000
Everything's possible inside the hot pot.

10:33.000 --> 10:35.000
And you just pick the one you like.

10:35.000 --> 10:38.000
So if I'm talking to someone like government,

10:38.000 --> 10:40.000
the democracy, I just talk about transparency.

10:40.000 --> 10:43.000
If I'm talking to someone who have no budget,

10:43.000 --> 10:44.000
I just talk about coastline.

10:44.000 --> 10:45.000
So that's how we do.

10:45.000 --> 10:46.000
It's flexible.

10:46.000 --> 10:49.000
But in the long run, it actually is not so healthy.

10:49.000 --> 10:52.000
Because it's just so when you contribute

10:52.000 --> 10:54.000
some conflict between different principles,

10:54.000 --> 10:57.000
it's actually so hard to let people know

10:57.000 --> 10:58.000
why you like to choose.

10:58.000 --> 11:00.000
Yeah, so this is one thing I share.

11:00.000 --> 11:02.000
And also we know like,

11:03.000 --> 11:05.000
now the day you live in the apartment,

11:05.000 --> 11:07.000
sometimes you encounter some neighbor.

11:07.000 --> 11:08.000
You don't really like.

11:08.000 --> 11:10.000
And things also happens with us.

11:10.000 --> 11:14.000
Yeah, so I hope I go and get Ben from coastline next year.

11:14.000 --> 11:15.000
I hope.

11:15.000 --> 11:16.000
Yeah, showing this picture,

11:16.000 --> 11:17.000
sometimes it can be so.

11:17.000 --> 11:19.000
And so I have to admit,

11:19.000 --> 11:21.000
70 issue, like,

11:21.000 --> 11:26.000
70 tech is also one of the narratives we are using right now.

11:26.000 --> 11:29.000
But this is work out really well.

11:29.000 --> 11:31.000
I would say probably no,

11:31.000 --> 11:33.000
because like when you actually use

11:33.000 --> 11:35.000
someone to attack this warrior,

11:35.000 --> 11:37.000
actually make people even harder to

11:37.000 --> 11:39.000
understand what open sources

11:39.000 --> 11:41.000
connected to,

11:41.000 --> 11:43.000
to like,

11:43.000 --> 11:45.000
military defense,

11:45.000 --> 11:46.000
national security.

11:46.000 --> 11:48.000
So sometimes it gets confusing.

11:48.000 --> 11:49.000
Like I think for sure,

11:49.000 --> 11:51.000
for a community like you guys,

11:51.000 --> 11:52.000
you can tell why.

11:52.000 --> 11:56.000
But for reality, for all the general public,

11:57.000 --> 12:00.000
it's actually a hot understanding concept.

12:00.000 --> 12:03.000
So this actually not so work out.

12:03.000 --> 12:05.000
And during all the speech,

12:05.000 --> 12:07.000
then you can find out actually,

12:07.000 --> 12:09.000
there's actually different narrative

12:09.000 --> 12:11.000
for different space,

12:11.000 --> 12:15.000
stage of the open source advocacy of Taiwan.

12:15.000 --> 12:16.000
At first,

12:16.000 --> 12:18.000
we actually started with intelligence,

12:18.000 --> 12:20.000
while it's some cool open source.

12:20.000 --> 12:22.000
Like it's something from Europe,

12:22.000 --> 12:23.000
so cool,

12:23.000 --> 12:24.000
no one knows about it,

12:24.000 --> 12:25.000
but I'm the one know about it.

12:25.000 --> 12:27.000
I was sure with you.

12:27.000 --> 12:28.000
Yeah.

12:28.000 --> 12:31.000
And they become a research and education target.

12:31.000 --> 12:33.000
And they become a community behavior.

12:33.000 --> 12:35.000
And during the maturetime,

12:35.000 --> 12:37.000
it became a transparency and collaboration.

12:37.000 --> 12:40.000
And it's like now we are working

12:40.000 --> 12:41.000
like we conclude,

12:41.000 --> 12:42.000
include all of things.

12:42.000 --> 12:44.000
But what we encounter is actually,

12:44.000 --> 12:46.000
right now we don't have

12:46.000 --> 12:48.000
a new narrative for a new age.

12:48.000 --> 12:50.000
I think that's why we are,

12:50.000 --> 12:52.000
what we're lacking right now,

12:52.000 --> 12:54.000
and also why we fail at this point.

12:54.000 --> 12:56.000
I'm also reflecting myself.

12:56.000 --> 12:57.000
And also,

12:57.000 --> 12:59.000
did you notice that there's really important things

12:59.000 --> 13:00.000
about open source?

13:00.000 --> 13:03.000
It's not showing this for narratives.

13:03.000 --> 13:06.000
And it's probably the most important.

13:06.000 --> 13:09.000
And Dr. Trey and a couple of economic.

13:09.000 --> 13:10.000
The thing,

13:10.000 --> 13:12.000
who's gonna pay for it,

13:12.000 --> 13:14.000
who's gonna develop talent for it,

13:14.000 --> 13:15.000
who's,

13:15.000 --> 13:16.000
and not to mention,

13:16.000 --> 13:17.000
we're asked to your government.

13:17.000 --> 13:20.000
Like why government want to push certain kind of things?

13:20.000 --> 13:23.000
If there's not about your national security,

13:23.000 --> 13:24.000
not sovereignty,

13:24.000 --> 13:27.000
usually it's about indoctrary economic.

13:27.000 --> 13:28.000
So why,

13:28.000 --> 13:30.000
like when we are doing public code,

13:30.000 --> 13:33.000
like we didn't include indoctrary economics,

13:33.000 --> 13:34.000
perspective.

13:34.000 --> 13:36.000
Okay, I will answer the first with

13:36.000 --> 13:40.000
a really high rocket answer.

13:40.000 --> 13:44.000
It's because it's different authority.

13:44.000 --> 13:47.000
Yeah, so in Ministry of Digital Fair,

13:47.000 --> 13:49.000
the one I used to work with

13:49.000 --> 13:51.000
is a department called,

13:51.000 --> 13:53.000
like, did democracy net war department?

13:53.000 --> 13:54.000
So we are,

13:54.000 --> 13:56.000
we can find some digital policy,

13:56.000 --> 13:58.000
but probably good.

13:58.000 --> 14:01.000
But when it comes to indoctrary economic,

14:01.000 --> 14:02.000
it's a non-agency.

14:02.000 --> 14:03.000
You can see here,

14:03.000 --> 14:07.000
a nutrition for digital indoctrary moda.

14:07.000 --> 14:09.000
Like actually agency on their moda,

14:09.000 --> 14:12.000
and we are just a tiny department on their moda.

14:12.000 --> 14:14.000
So it's all the different things.

14:14.000 --> 14:16.000
Let's still emphasize indoctrary economic,

14:16.000 --> 14:18.000
but we are not really

14:18.000 --> 14:20.000
connected, talking to each other.

14:20.000 --> 14:24.000
So when I do software indoctrary development,

14:24.000 --> 14:26.000
is for non-opensors,

14:26.000 --> 14:27.000
what?

14:27.000 --> 14:28.000
Menely.

14:28.000 --> 14:29.000
They talk a little about us,

14:29.000 --> 14:30.000
but not.

14:30.000 --> 14:32.000
So at least two is not combined.

14:32.000 --> 14:36.000
So it definitely affects a lot of things.

14:36.000 --> 14:38.000
But like this is just an organization,

14:38.000 --> 14:39.000
not usual.

14:39.000 --> 14:41.000
I think it happens in old country.

14:41.000 --> 14:42.000
But there's another fact.

14:42.000 --> 14:44.000
I think it's a different reason.

14:44.000 --> 14:47.000
So let's ask ourselves,

14:47.000 --> 14:50.000
that open source software,

14:50.000 --> 14:52.000
approach demonstration,

14:52.000 --> 14:53.000
like superior, economic,

14:53.000 --> 14:56.000
value for government and society.

14:56.000 --> 14:57.000
I know,

14:57.000 --> 15:01.000
probably most of you have a really strong idea,

15:01.000 --> 15:02.000
like saying, hey,

15:02.000 --> 15:03.000
if you open,

15:03.000 --> 15:05.000
develop open source indoctrary,

15:05.000 --> 15:10.000
they will be more a new layer of supply change,

15:10.000 --> 15:12.000
like focusing on open source.

15:12.000 --> 15:15.000
So it can be a new change for Taiwan or for indoctrary.

15:15.000 --> 15:17.000
They can make me money.

15:17.000 --> 15:19.000
And in the beginning,

15:19.000 --> 15:21.000
part is actually more,

15:21.000 --> 15:22.000
they can charge more,

15:22.000 --> 15:24.000
because they are actually

15:24.000 --> 15:26.000
customizing a different things.

15:26.000 --> 15:27.000
But why is it,

15:27.000 --> 15:29.000
especially Taiwan is a strong text,

15:29.000 --> 15:32.000
for some people is a strong text country.

15:32.000 --> 15:33.000
So why not?

15:33.000 --> 15:34.000
But in reality,

15:34.000 --> 15:36.000
we're actually strong in the hardware.

15:36.000 --> 15:38.000
We're not running a software.

15:38.000 --> 15:40.000
You probably OC this brand before,

15:40.000 --> 15:41.000
TSMC,

15:41.000 --> 15:44.000
like I guess most of your phone athletes,

15:44.000 --> 15:46.000
have to say that for that product.

15:46.000 --> 15:47.000
But the reality is,

15:47.000 --> 15:49.000
like TSMC is so strong.

15:49.000 --> 15:53.000
They can easily hire a lot of engineers,

15:53.000 --> 15:55.000
as much as money you can imagine.

15:55.000 --> 15:58.000
So we'll want to do this open source.

15:58.000 --> 16:00.000
We'll want to go to a company.

16:00.000 --> 16:04.000
They probably don't even want to go to the software industry.

16:04.000 --> 16:07.000
They will prefer to go to TSMC.

16:07.000 --> 16:09.000
They can make money easily.

16:09.000 --> 16:10.000
Probably not a good life,

16:10.000 --> 16:12.000
but still good.

16:13.000 --> 16:14.000
Generally speaking,

16:14.000 --> 16:16.000
compared to most of the European industry,

16:16.000 --> 16:17.000
we only have that software.

16:17.000 --> 16:18.000
Yeah.

16:18.000 --> 16:20.000
So let's look at the two sub and same coin.

16:20.000 --> 16:22.000
TSMC actually helping Taiwan sometimes,

16:22.000 --> 16:24.000
but sometimes it's still causing a problem.

16:24.000 --> 16:25.000
Yeah.

16:25.000 --> 16:27.000
And also,

16:27.000 --> 16:28.000
like in nowadays,

16:28.000 --> 16:29.000
we have a silver lining,

16:29.000 --> 16:33.000
like the growth in the Ministry of Digital Fair stop.

16:33.000 --> 16:35.000
But actually we have a silver lining right now.

16:35.000 --> 16:37.000
Open source culture condition is now working

16:37.000 --> 16:39.000
with Taipei City Government.

16:39.000 --> 16:41.000
And that really starting to shift

16:42.000 --> 16:44.000
all in some of their software,

16:44.000 --> 16:46.000
but you two use from Microsoft.

16:46.000 --> 16:48.000
Sorry, I shouldn't say that.

16:48.000 --> 16:50.000
Two open source.

16:50.000 --> 16:51.000
But why?

16:51.000 --> 16:53.000
Because open source,

16:53.000 --> 16:55.000
Microsoft is now raising the money.

16:55.000 --> 16:57.000
So in the money is too big this year.

16:57.000 --> 16:59.000
So they have to do it.

16:59.000 --> 17:00.000
So now right now,

17:00.000 --> 17:03.000
we actually ask by Lam to come up with

17:03.000 --> 17:05.000
a new principle and new policy for

17:05.000 --> 17:07.000
them to really apply

17:07.000 --> 17:09.000
to open source policy.

17:09.000 --> 17:11.000
Open source software.

17:11.000 --> 17:13.000
So we actually come up with a guidelines

17:13.000 --> 17:15.000
or I cannot show that you the real guideline.

17:15.000 --> 17:17.000
I just give you a graphic ideas.

17:17.000 --> 17:20.000
So like how can they do the software

17:20.000 --> 17:22.000
and inventory check to make sure

17:22.000 --> 17:24.000
what can understand their own need?

17:24.000 --> 17:27.000
And also know what kind of software they're having.

17:27.000 --> 17:29.000
And we have different guideline for

17:29.000 --> 17:32.000
different kind of open source software.

17:32.000 --> 17:33.000
Like,

17:34.000 --> 17:37.000
this is for server list on the virtualization.

17:37.000 --> 17:39.000
And each guideline will include different

17:39.000 --> 17:40.000
processes.

17:40.000 --> 17:42.000
How do you do assessment on yourself?

17:42.000 --> 17:43.000
And also,

17:43.000 --> 17:44.000
how can you make sure your

17:44.000 --> 17:46.000
transition strategy is proper?

17:46.000 --> 17:47.000
And also,

17:47.000 --> 17:48.000
how can you include

17:48.000 --> 17:49.000
operation and maintenance

17:49.000 --> 17:50.000
rejection?

17:50.000 --> 17:51.000
So this is,

17:51.000 --> 17:53.000
I will consider right now the

17:53.000 --> 17:56.000
currently the final hope of

17:56.000 --> 17:58.000
final state to apply open source

17:58.000 --> 18:00.000
or probably code entire

18:01.000 --> 18:02.000
government.

18:02.000 --> 18:04.000
So now we talk about

18:04.000 --> 18:05.000
feature.

18:05.000 --> 18:07.000
Right now we can see the trend

18:07.000 --> 18:08.000
like just like Europe.

18:08.000 --> 18:10.000
70 and resilient is still the best way to

18:10.000 --> 18:12.000
talk about public code and public money.

18:12.000 --> 18:14.000
Despite the onsite,

18:14.000 --> 18:16.000
I've shared about.

18:16.000 --> 18:18.000
But it's on a trend.

18:18.000 --> 18:20.000
So it's easier for us to talk.

18:20.000 --> 18:21.000
So we still use it.

18:21.000 --> 18:22.000
Sorry.

18:22.000 --> 18:23.000
Yeah, just like a couple of ideas.

18:23.000 --> 18:24.000
Yeah.

18:24.000 --> 18:27.000
But we have to fight different

18:28.000 --> 18:30.000
reality and also ask of self.

18:30.000 --> 18:32.000
Some question during

18:32.000 --> 18:35.000
while we are doing this advocacy.

18:35.000 --> 18:38.000
How do you define non-sensitive software?

18:38.000 --> 18:40.000
For a government?

18:40.000 --> 18:42.000
Because you know,

18:42.000 --> 18:44.000
now the software is so complicated.

18:44.000 --> 18:45.000
All the component,

18:45.000 --> 18:47.000
I don't think you know exactly

18:47.000 --> 18:50.000
every component of your own software

18:50.000 --> 18:51.000
to be honest.

18:51.000 --> 18:52.000
That way, the component,

18:52.000 --> 18:53.000
all the copyright.

18:53.000 --> 18:55.000
So the first thing is about a legal issue.

18:55.000 --> 18:56.000
It's about a reality.

18:56.000 --> 18:58.000
It was if someone attacked you.

18:58.000 --> 19:00.000
So what I'm showing is something happened

19:00.000 --> 19:03.000
before in 2022 or 23.

19:03.000 --> 19:06.000
American, some important American lady

19:06.000 --> 19:09.000
come visit Taiwan and suddenly

19:09.000 --> 19:11.000
they hack a lot of different things

19:11.000 --> 19:12.000
in Taiwan.

19:12.000 --> 19:14.000
This is actually just a no more

19:14.000 --> 19:17.000
display board of our railway station.

19:17.000 --> 19:19.000
Usually used for simple advice on

19:19.000 --> 19:20.000
her things.

19:20.000 --> 19:22.000
But let's take it and put something like

19:22.000 --> 19:23.000
against us.

19:23.000 --> 19:26.000
Is that considered a non-sensitive software?

19:26.000 --> 19:28.000
Or is it sensitive software?

19:28.000 --> 19:30.000
Is it a national security?

19:30.000 --> 19:32.000
Or is it not sensitive security?

19:32.000 --> 19:34.000
So when you are using 70,

19:34.000 --> 19:36.000
how do you differentiate this?

19:36.000 --> 19:37.000
And also,

19:37.000 --> 19:38.000
we are talking about 70,

19:38.000 --> 19:40.000
and also you are talking about open stories

19:40.000 --> 19:41.000
really politic.

19:41.000 --> 19:43.000
And also,

19:43.000 --> 19:47.000
it's connected to the digital democracy.

19:47.000 --> 19:49.000
But what kind of organization model

19:49.000 --> 19:51.000
and legal framework of a government

19:51.000 --> 19:53.000
and a public good?

19:53.000 --> 19:54.000
Yeah.

19:54.000 --> 19:55.000
For example,

19:55.000 --> 19:58.000
we all know about procurement.

19:58.000 --> 20:00.000
So do you think the one in charge of

20:00.000 --> 20:02.000
procurement in government

20:02.000 --> 20:05.000
is actually a developer?

20:05.000 --> 20:06.000
Not really,

20:06.000 --> 20:07.000
most of the time now.

20:07.000 --> 20:09.000
And what even though he is a developer,

20:09.000 --> 20:10.000
in his role,

20:10.000 --> 20:13.000
what's most important is project manager.

20:13.000 --> 20:15.000
It's not really about doing the tech.

20:15.000 --> 20:18.000
But if you want to make sure your code is so safe,

20:18.000 --> 20:19.000
at some point,

20:19.000 --> 20:21.000
it also not need to know about detail.

20:21.000 --> 20:24.000
Like, how can you make sure everything goes right?

20:24.000 --> 20:27.000
I'm not sure how many public servants

20:27.000 --> 20:30.000
are one or actually can do it to be honest.

20:30.000 --> 20:31.000
Like,

20:31.000 --> 20:33.000
and you have so many public servants

20:33.000 --> 20:35.000
to do that in one single government.

20:35.000 --> 20:37.000
That's actually the things to talk about.

20:37.000 --> 20:38.000
Not to mention,

20:38.000 --> 20:40.000
do you have enough confidence for your government

20:40.000 --> 20:41.000
to do that kind of things?

20:41.000 --> 20:42.000
Yeah.

20:42.000 --> 20:43.000
They open up the algorithm,

20:43.000 --> 20:45.000
but how can you make sure all that everything?

20:45.000 --> 20:46.000
Yeah.

20:47.000 --> 20:48.000
Especially right now,

20:48.000 --> 20:50.000
we all know we are on dirt,

20:50.000 --> 20:51.000
a really,

20:51.000 --> 20:52.000
and strong,

20:52.000 --> 20:53.000
like,

20:53.000 --> 20:54.000
political climate change

20:54.000 --> 20:55.000
around the world.

20:55.000 --> 20:56.000
And not to mention,

20:56.000 --> 20:58.000
and some already brought it up

20:58.000 --> 21:00.000
in last yesterday's EU policy,

21:00.000 --> 21:01.000
some weeks.

21:01.000 --> 21:04.000
Opens are supposed to be a global movement,

21:04.000 --> 21:06.000
but now they were talking about sovereignty.

21:06.000 --> 21:08.000
And we have to face it.

21:08.000 --> 21:10.000
Some of these actually about nationality.

21:10.000 --> 21:11.000
And we're also doing the same thing,

21:11.000 --> 21:13.000
because I just share our neighbors' photo

21:14.000 --> 21:15.000
that are all black.

21:15.000 --> 21:16.000
So, not just you guys,

21:16.000 --> 21:18.000
we're also reflecting like open source

21:18.000 --> 21:19.000
and nationality.

21:19.000 --> 21:21.000
I really kind of shifting things back.

21:21.000 --> 21:22.000
What?

21:22.000 --> 21:23.000
Not open us anymore.

21:23.000 --> 21:24.000
So, I think there's something

21:24.000 --> 21:26.000
that we can reflect both

21:26.000 --> 21:27.000
in Taiwan and EU,

21:27.000 --> 21:28.000
because I really find that now

21:28.000 --> 21:29.000
we are in a STEM stage.

21:29.000 --> 21:30.000
So, thank you so much.

21:30.000 --> 21:32.000
I'm open up to all kinds of questions

21:32.000 --> 21:33.000
and help you like it's all.

21:33.000 --> 21:34.000
Thank you.

21:35.000 --> 21:36.000
Thank you.

21:42.000 --> 21:43.000
Hi.

21:43.000 --> 21:44.000
Great talk.

21:44.000 --> 21:45.000
Thank you.

21:45.000 --> 21:47.000
You were talking about

21:47.000 --> 21:48.000
one of those specific things,

21:48.000 --> 21:51.000
grants for writing open source code.

21:51.000 --> 21:53.000
And I was wondering if you could say

21:53.000 --> 21:55.000
a little bit more about those grants.

21:55.000 --> 21:57.000
And if it's easier than,

21:57.000 --> 22:00.000
say, hiring an agency to write open source code

22:00.000 --> 22:02.000
or like hiring a big tack on

22:02.000 --> 22:03.000
for need to write open source code.

22:03.000 --> 22:04.000
Are the grants good?

22:04.000 --> 22:05.000
Are they working?

22:05.000 --> 22:06.000
Yeah.

22:06.000 --> 22:08.000
Okay.

22:08.000 --> 22:09.000
Okay.

22:09.000 --> 22:10.000
So, sure.

22:10.000 --> 22:11.000
Okay.

22:11.000 --> 22:12.000
They all answer us.

22:12.000 --> 22:14.000
I have to meet like letting community

22:14.000 --> 22:17.000
to solve the software problem of

22:17.000 --> 22:19.000
the government is actually

22:19.000 --> 22:21.000
definitely much, much, much harder than

22:21.000 --> 22:23.000
hiring a company to do procurement.

22:23.000 --> 22:25.000
Because like, to be honest,

22:25.000 --> 22:26.000
like, is it a procurement?

22:26.000 --> 22:27.000
So, it's a country.

22:27.000 --> 22:28.000
You do what you do.

22:28.000 --> 22:29.000
But when it comes to community,

22:29.000 --> 22:31.000
like, we're all coming to members.

22:31.000 --> 22:32.000
Sometimes we have different value

22:32.000 --> 22:33.000
and different things.

22:33.000 --> 22:34.000
So, you need to communicate.

22:34.000 --> 22:36.000
But what we think is important is because,

22:36.000 --> 22:37.000
like, during that time,

22:37.000 --> 22:40.000
you will actually go through a culture,

22:40.000 --> 22:41.000
shock or culture transition.

22:41.000 --> 22:43.000
You actually understand each other.

22:43.000 --> 22:45.000
You also have public servant to know about

22:45.000 --> 22:47.000
the tech war and also about democracy and

22:47.000 --> 22:48.000
as a value of public code more.

22:48.000 --> 22:49.000
So, we're still valued.

22:49.000 --> 22:50.000
That's it.

22:50.000 --> 22:51.000
It's hard to scale.

22:51.000 --> 22:52.000
I have to do the make.

22:52.000 --> 22:53.000
Yeah.

22:53.000 --> 22:55.000
Just a quick question.

22:55.000 --> 22:59.000
How do you combat like informal and blatant

22:59.000 --> 23:01.000
corruption from the companies that

23:01.000 --> 23:03.000
are losing money?

23:03.000 --> 23:04.000
Like, I don't know.

23:04.000 --> 23:06.000
I'm sure that Microsoft, sorry.

23:06.000 --> 23:08.000
The not company done to me named has a lot of money

23:08.000 --> 23:13.000
to just spend on policies and other stuff like that.

23:13.000 --> 23:17.000
I also have to export to answer it.

23:17.000 --> 23:18.000
Yeah, for sure.

23:18.000 --> 23:21.000
But because I think it's another specific area.

23:21.000 --> 23:23.000
But I would say, like, now a day,

23:23.000 --> 23:25.000
I've been really afraid about it.

23:25.000 --> 23:27.000
Like, now a day, our procurement act

23:27.000 --> 23:29.000
is actually super strict.

23:30.000 --> 23:32.000
If you are a healthy enterprise,

23:32.000 --> 23:35.000
I don't think you would want to go to a procurement.

23:35.000 --> 23:37.000
So, I mean, for having me healthy,

23:37.000 --> 23:38.000
you're earning money very well.

23:38.000 --> 23:40.000
Like, you don't need to go to the community.

23:40.000 --> 23:42.000
I don't think actually government procurement

23:42.000 --> 23:44.000
at this point is the best choice.

23:44.000 --> 23:47.000
So, at a organizing, it reduces the situation like you ask.

23:47.000 --> 23:48.000
Yeah.

23:48.000 --> 23:50.000
But, like, for sure, it seems to still happen.

23:50.000 --> 23:53.000
But right now, we are still mainly focusing on,

23:53.000 --> 23:57.000
like, how all the security check

23:57.000 --> 23:59.000
based on criminal cumin.

23:59.000 --> 24:00.000
Yeah.

24:00.000 --> 24:01.000
So, thank you very much.

24:01.000 --> 24:04.000
Please join me in the big round of applause for Zalin.

24:04.000 --> 24:05.000
Thank you.

24:05.000 --> 24:06.000
Thank you.

24:06.000 --> 24:07.000
Thank you so much.
