It aimed to bring industry leaders together and spearhead development of solutions for the next generation of E Governments worldwide. The event was organised by Ecquaria and Sun Microsystems along with partners e.cop.net, Elixir technology, e Suria and SCS Information Technology.
Participants for the seminar included around eighty members from the government and ten from the private sectors.
It showcased Ecquaria and Sun Microsystems' experience in aiding Singapore's deployment of its "Public Services Infrastructure" (PSI), a government-wide infrastructure with an estimated 1,600 public services online and an emphasis on the best practices for Next Generation E Government.
The first wave of E Government saw the development of Intranets and electronic services from various government agencies.
The forum explores the possibilities and improvements that can be done to further leverage on these investments, with the objective of transforming the public service into a networked government that delivers friendly, accessible and integrated electronic services that delight customers and citizens.
Present on behalf of Sun Microsystems was Mr Boon San Gan, Managing Director as well as Mr Bernard Kam, Technical Consultant.
Among the seminar's speakers were representatives of companies as well as other users including LCDR Julianto G. Bucayan, Jr. (PN).
