What is e-Government?
E-Government describes the use of technologies by the government to help the citizen, business and even government employees in their access of government services and information.
In the e-government vision, public can:
- Submit their applications electronically via the Internet and mobile phones, available 24 hours a day.
- Minimises the time spent queuing and submitting forms at government buildings.
- The services delivered must be easy to use, navigate and most importantly intuitive.
There are three main authorities responsible for e-Government:
- E-Government Leadership Forum (EGLF)
- Overall Government CIO
- E-Government National Centre (EGNC)
