Singapore will be setting up an e-Government Leadership Centre for training of industry and government personnel, as part of efforts to promote the country’s e-Government solutions.
Speaking at the opening of the Infocomm Media Business Exchange 2006, Dr Lee Boon Yang, Minister for Information, Communications and the Arts, said Singapore’s e-government solutions were an example of innovative “Made-by-Singapore” products, services and solutions that could help the country’s infocomm industry compete more effectively in the international market. “Our proven track record in developing and implementing innovative e-government solutions over the last 25 years has helped our local enterprises on the world market,” he said.
The e-Government Leadership Centre, a joint effort between the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore, the National University of Singapore’s Institute of Systems Science and the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, will be launched later this year.
It aims to be a world-class leader in e-government education, research and consulting, said Lee. The centre will offer executive management programmes covering topics relating to public policy, ICT policy and management and case studies in innovative e-Government.
