Personal data has become susceptible to data breaches following the drastic rise in data processing worldwide. Consequently, data protection issues have been addressed using personal data protection (PDP) laws. The current article compared the PDP regulations in Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, and the Philippines by assessing the salient features of every law on PDP components via content analysis. As law enforcement varies based on each nation’s requirements and situations, their similarities and differences were highlighted in the research outcome. Findings from this study show that each country is committed to ensure the protection of personal data and does so by using ways that most suit the needs and legal requirements of their respective countries.
