Transforming Government since 2001
The E-Government National Centre (EGNC) will be launching Brunei's first E-Government Portal for a complete one-stop-shop for online government services and information. The portal will eventually host all the E-Government services such as electrical bill payment, application and renewal of licenses and passports, renewal of road tax and many more. With the introduction of this portal, the increasingly tech-savvy Brunei public can now obtain updated information on government services and manage their tasks with greater convenience and simplicity.

The EGNC invited the public in December 2010, to help them name their new portal through a contest on the phenomenally popular social medium - Facebook. With half of Brunei's population connected to Facebook, EGNC hopes to engage the public to enter the contest via their fanpage on the social site.

The Language and Literature Bureau is planning to introduce a new service called the 'Language Portal' next year as a measure in the preservation of Jawi and Malay language in the Sultanate.

"Since we are in this era where Information Technology (IT) is almost a must, we will spread Jawi education with the help of e-Government," the bureau acting director, Hjh Aminah Hj Momin told The Brunei Times.

"The use of the technology is an advantage for the next generation to learn about Jawi, one of Brunei's vital heritage," she said.
