The combined impact of globalization, ICT and the explosion of knowledge has led to striking changes in modern society, calling into question all aspects of our modern way of life. To cope with these rapid changes, we need to prepare a workforce with the skills to work with various electronic technologies specific to our digital era. A different approach to education is needed to develop citizens with a worldview, intercultural understanding, the ability to work on group projects in a multicultural environment, as well as the ability to think creatively and critically. This article argues that it is necessary to radically change, especially in developing countries, the way education is provided to the "digital aborigines" of today and tomorrow. Arguing that education is the engine, that a country's strength is based on its quality education, and that the country must provide a verified education to produce globally competitive citizens. The article examines various educational reforms carried out in some successful education systems, but it makes a reservation that developing countries, such as Indonesia or the ASEAN region, should learn from the experience of such systems. At the same time, they should understand that an idea that works in one socio-economic environment may not be as effective in another, since socio-political systems play their role.
