Viet Nam ranked 112th out of 191 countries in the 2004 e-government readiness rankings of the United Nations Public Administration Network (UNPAN) with an index of 0.3378, down 15 positions from the previous year.

A total sum of 20 billion VND will be spent to develop an e-government system in Viet Nam in 2005, said officials at a two-day regional seminar on e-government in Ha Noi.

More than 100 delegates from over 20 member countries of the Asia-Pacific Tele-community (APT), Vietnamese ministerial and branch officials, and local and foreign IT companies attended the conference.

HCM City will spend more funds to accelerate its e-government programme, even as doubts remain about the e-literacy of government employees.

Nguyen Thien Nhan, Vice Chairman of HCM City People's Committee, said the city's spending on e-government increased from US$1.26 million in 2002 to US$4.6 million in 2003, and rose further to hit US$6.5 million in 2004.

Participants at a symposium on e-Government agreed on Thursday that the technology is just what the country needs to better connect citizens to the State.

The establishment of e-Government, governmental processes and information on the Internet, would create a better life for citizens and would simplify the work of governmental agencies
