The considerable leap in ranking reflects the pace of progress in the Brunei’s e-Government initiatives to build ICT infrastructure, deliver electronic services and developing human resource capacities and capabilities within the country.
The main aim of the 2010 UN Global e-Government Readiness survey is to assess 192 UN member states in terms of their use of information and communication technologies to serve and interact with citizens. The overall index includes a web measure index, a telecommunication infrastructure index and a human capital index.
The top 10 countries in the 2010 e-Government Development Index are Republic of Korea, USA, Canada, UK and Northern Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Denmark, Australia, Spain and France.
The data for 2010 survey is available on the UN e-Government Development website www.unpan.org/egovkb.
