Korea ranked first in UN e-government ratings in 2010 and 2012, but total exports of Korean e-government systems have been slowing down this year.
According to the Ministry of Public Administration and Security on November 11, Korea exported its e-government system to 27 countries as of October 31. The total amount reached US$341.7 million, 76% of the US$400 million target.
The result is widely regarded as an improvement in quality rather than quantity, given an increase in credit assistance through credit loans or local loans of import countries, instead of free handouts via Official Development Assistance (ODA).
