The Asian e-Government Conference
April 2006, Bangkok, Thailand
Introduction
Asian countries are witnessing a dramatic change in their economy. So is
the scene of e-Governance! Some countries are already topping the
international charts of e-Governance, some have just begun their
journey, while there are a few others who are yet to step into the
e-Governance arena. The scope for these countries to learn from their
advanced Asian neighbors is immense and opportunities are unbound. The
