The seminar focuses on capacity building in e-Government, with the overall aim of narrowing the digital divide within Asean. Narrowing the digital divide will help the region move forward together to compete more effectively in the global market place and strengthen the region's economic growth.
In conjunction with this executive seminar, Singapore is also hosting "A Primer on Cyberlaws,' held back to back with the e-Government Executive Seminar, the first in a series of seminars and workshops on e- Asean, organised under the auspices of the IAI, which is aimed at narrowing the development gap within the grouping. Both seminars are attended by senior government officials at Permanent Secretary and Deputy Minister levels and will provide valuable input to relevant Asean bodies which are driving the e- Asean process forward.
