The survey indicated strong public support for ISOC's continued existence and an expanded role, with 62.9% suggesting it include cyber security and 51.4% for public disaster mitigation.
Many respondents (51.5%) also believe ISOC should be reformed to better meet local demands, rather than being dissolved.
