  • Pandemic Marks 1St PDA Asia Pacific's Anniversary
    Volume 1 • Issue 2 July 2020 www.pda.org/pdaletter Pandemic Marks 1st PDA Asia Pacific’s Anniversary Having just passed the milestone of our first-year initiation as the PDA Asia Pacific lead- ership, we find ourselves in a totally unpredictable situation. Thankfully, we belong to a network of association industry professionals who followed the situation in China starting in January. This enabled us to adapt to the situation quickly. Aside from the operational precautionary measures by operating our team in Singapore under the business continuity plan protocol early on, we had yet to see the impact in the region and the duration of it. Without giving away my age, I recall the days of SARS and applied what I learned from that time. Still, as we now all know, not much could have prepared us for this. Following the launch of PDA Asia Pacific last year, we reached out to PDA’s chapters in Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Singapore. We listened and we learned, adding three new events in these markets. We recognized that PDA members in several countries had a wonderful process in place, providing a good quantity of education for members. PDA’s Japan Chapter already has a strong framework. We also learned regulatory agencies and Marcel Ewals, PDA Asia Pacific Office other organizations in the region PDA was well known but its presence not felt. With this in mind, we drafted an ambitious plan to be represented at events, industry meetings and digital offerings. Of course, digital resources have become more critical as of late and we hope that you have encountered more PDA activities whilst browsing the internet feedback is always welcome.

BACKGROUND PDA is responsible for directing the administration of the Older Adults Protective Services program for the prevention and treatment of elder abuse, neglect, exploitation, and abandonment. It also designs and implements a statewide reporting and investigative system to address the needs of older adults requiring protective services. Under Pennsylvania law, AAAs are required to conduct face-to-face interviews of alleged abused or neglected victims within 72 hours after receiving the RON, and complete investigations of the allegation(s) within 20 days after receiving the RON. COOPERATION FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF AGING During the course of the OSIG’s investigation, PDA’s Executive and program staff were cooperative and accommodating.

  • «The Security Economy
    The Security Economy « Recent years have seen security take a prominent place on the political and corporate agenda. Organised crime, terrorism, disruption of global supply chains, The Security computer viruses – all have played a role in raising people’s awareness of the risks they face in today’s world. Economy The result has been the emergence of a USD 100 billion market for security goods and services fed by growing demand from governments, businesses and private households. With globalisation and technological progress continuing at a rapid pace, the security economy is expected to expand further in the years ahead. New identification and surveillance technologies such as biometrics and radio frequency ID are coming on stream, and satellite-based monitoring is set to play an ever greater role. How large are the potential economic costs of major disruptions to transport systems and information networks? What is the overall cost of tighter security? Are there trade-offs between higher levels of security and economic efficiency? What are the future implications for society of the growth of surveillance in terms of its impact on privacy and other democratic liberties? This report tackles those and many other questions critical to the security economy of the 21st century. The Security Economy OECD's books, periodicals and statistical databases are now available via www.SourceOECD.org, our online library. This book is available to subscribers to the following SourceOECD themes: Science and Information Technology General Economics and Future
