Representing ministries, ministerial-level agencies and 45 provinces and cities they shared this view at a national symposium on e-government in Ho Chi Minh City on July 16.
Present at the event, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Thien Nhan said he was satisfied with the cost-saving aspect of the application of e-government, regarding it as one of the successes the e-government programme has achieved.
“The government currently organises online meetings with all 63 provinces and cities with the participation of up to 1,000 officials, and the expense of doing this is dropping sharply. Previously, such a meeting saw the attendance of 120-200 officials from 63 cities and provinces and expenses amounted to VND500-800 million,” Deputy PM Nhan said.
The Deputy PM also pointed to the need to iron out snags in building and applying e-government as “the application of information technology helps to improve the relations between governance and the supply of services for the people.”
The www.hochiminhcity.gov.vn and www.agroviet.gov.vn topped the national ratings for websites and the supply of public administrative services nationwide.
According to Deputy Head of the Ministry of Information and Communication’s IT Application Pham Van Hai, 57 percent of local officials were provided with email addresses for work but 19 percent of them did not use them.
At ministries and ministerial-level agencies, 80 percent of officials were given email addresses of their workplace but 33 percent of them did not put those addresses into use.
