A prognosis of Chinese E-governance

Abstract

Electronic-Governance is swiftly expanding in China. Interestingly, in the domain of e-services delivery, this developing country is still very much lacking behind. However, in order to achieve paperless offices with greater transparency, accountability, and accessibility, the central and city governments of China have made considerable attempts in transforming each available service into e-service. Accordingly, several of the landmark e-governance projects in China are highlighted in this paper. Similarly, certain fully and partially covered domains are discussed. Further, the impact of e-governance on society is elaborated, and the major obstacles in the fruitful e-governance implementation are highlighted.
