Governments around the world are striving to achieve more efficiency, faster delivery of service and in order to do that government departments are turning to the Internet as a way of developing e-Government initiatives.
Many countries around the world use information technology particularly the Internet to deliver public service in a much more customer-oriented and cost-effective way via e-Government drive. In general the e-Government is being driven by the need for the government to cut cost and improve efficiency, meet citizen expectations and improve citizen relationship and facilitate economic development.
The slow moving red-tape linked to reams of paper and ledgers will soon be over as some of the key Ministries will be fully streamlined with the state of the art electronic systems that will not only speed up work but also bring the public service closer to an eGovernment, the buzzword of the 21st century.
