Korea is a Leader in e-government
The latest global e-government survey by the United Nations shows that Korea ranks number one in the world. As reported in the Joongang Daily today, this results in a wide range of conveniences for Korean citizens. Other countries are taking an active interest in Korea's e-government systems. (click on graphic at left to see a larger version) Even Japan, it is reported, wants to learn from the Korean experience and introduce similar measures at home. There is little question that Korea's efforts toward e-government have provided for greater transparency in many transactions and more efficient service to citizens across a range of services. However, this leadership could be enhanced if the country could break out of its Microsoft monoculture (see my earlier posts) and allow secure banking and financial transactions.
