Two ministries have called for the better use of information technology in the Indonesian bureaucracy as many countries with well-managed e-governments have improved their quality of public services.
“(E-government) should stop being just an idea. No more theories, no more comparative studies. We should start practising it,” Minister of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reforms Asman Abnur said this week.
Both Jakarta and West Java capital Bandung have both been deemed "smart cities" in a region-wide research project from the Economist Intelligence Unit, thanks to recent technology programs adopted by local government in both cities. Jakarta and Bandung are among 20 cities across Southeast Asia and Asia-Pacific identified by Startup My City, a research program by EIU, a branch of the Economist Group which provides global economic data and advisory services for industry overviews, and sponsored by Hitachi.
