"E-government is the answer to modern governing system, using an integrated information technology system," State Apparatus and Bureaucracy Empowerment Minister Yuddy Chrisnadi said on the sidelines of a forum to heed an MoU on e-government and bureaucracy reform cooperation between Indonesia and South Korea held here.
The forum was attended by 130 Indonesian and South Korean officials.
The MoU was signed by officials of the previous Indonesian government and their South Korean counterparts last year.
Yuddy said South Korea apparently has proven good records in applying the e-government system that makes Indonesia keen to adopt it.
According to the minister, Indonesia has actually applied information technology systems in its institutions and agencies, but the systems were separated from one another.
He said the e-government system to be applied by the present government will integrate information compiled by each of those institutions and agencies.
He added that the government has six priority programs to use e- government system in a bid to create effective, efficient and transparent governing system.
They include government's cyber security, intra-government broadband, interconnection of government service system, integrated electronic data center, national one-window licensing service and empowerment of public service portal.
Discussions on preparing implementation of the e-government system in Indonesia between officials of both governments are now underway. South Korea is willing to provide assistance in training human resources to run the system.
