• E- Governance is the application of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) for DELIVERING government services, exchange of
information communication transactions, integration various stand-one
systems and services between Government-to-citizens (G2C), Government-to-
Business (G2B), Government-to-Government (G2G) as well as back office
processes and interactions within the entire government frame work or
Government-to-Employee (G2E).

What is e-Governance or e-Government?
• It also refers to the use by government agencies of information and
communication technologies (ICT) that have the ability to TRANSFORM
relations with citizens, business, government employees and other arms of
government in the delivery of services. Also provide access to information to
empower citizens.
• For the World Bank, it is define as the use of ICT to improve the efficiency,
effectiveness, transparency and accountability of Government.

thereby enhancing citizens’ access to government services.
• It is the application of information and communication technology for
improving governance by enhancing government’s role in service delivery,
public administration and promotion of participatory democracy.

Types of Interactions in e-Governance

4 TYPES OF TRANSACTIONS IN E-GOVERNANCE:
• G2G (Government to Government) – ICT is used not only to restructure the government processes involved in the
functioning of government entities but also to increase the flow of information
and services within and between different entities. This kind of interaction is only
within the sphere of government.
• G2C (Government to Citizen) – An interface is created between the government and citizens which enables the
citizens to benefit from efficient delivery of a large range of public services.
This expands the availability and accessibility of public services on the one hand
and improves the quality of services on the other.
• G2B (Government to Business) – Here, e-Governance tools are used to aid the business community – providers of
goods, and services – to seamlessly interact with the government. The objective is
to cut red tape, save time, reduce operational costs and to create a more
transparent business environment when dealing with the government.
• G2E (Government to Employee) – Government is by far the biggest employer and like any organization, it has to
interact with its employees on a regular basis. This interaction is a two-way
process between the organization and the employee. Use of ICT tools helps in
making these transactions fast and efficient on the one hand and increase
satisfaction levels of employees on the other.

COMPONENTS OF E-GOVERNANCE:
• Technological Component – This relates to educate people who are in the bureaucratic structure or outside its periphery
regarding use of electronic means to develop better connectivity within and with the system.
It requires use of computers:
a. in developing the data-base
b. in networking to facilitate the communication
c. in creating e-knowledge workers so as to increase their potentiality. This
focuses on “e” of electronic knowledge and its proper utilization.
• Social Component – The Fundamental duty of any government is to educe a society which is based on the
principles of equality and justice. This would help in attaining the “e” of egalitarian society
with thrust on equality.
• Cultural Component – With the advent of the era of knowledge explosion there is a need to reorient some of the
value patterns without eroding the fundamental normative structure of any social system.
Thus “e” of ethical framework has to be the focal point in constructing a ,orality-based
system.
• Political Component – It is an essential aspect of governance as it holds responsibility of rationalizing various
operative frameworks by enacting laws. This refers to the importance of “e” of enactment of
laws to stop society from disintegration.
• Psychological Component – Developing required psycho so as to facilitate formation and inculcation of right type of
attitudes in the people is prerequisite for efficiency. This specifically relates to “e” of
extension of self so as to have constructive collaborative social relationships.
• Service Component – The ultimate function of any welfare government is to serve. This explains “e” of
empowerment of people in any system.

INTERVENTIONAL STRATEGIES OF e-GOVERNANCE:
• Transitive Counseling – In order to reduce the resistance, people need to be prepared for coming out of transitional
phase. Thus proper counseling is required regarding changes in attitudes, reorienting mind
set etc. at various levels of government functioning.
• Electronic Accessibility – There is a need to equip people with necessary knowledge regarding use of electronic multi
media by imparting it through various institutions. Technologically advanced Institutes with
expertise must be set up which must established themselves as the centers of excellence by
imparting to people of e-knowledge.
• Institutional Networking – Various agencies needed at different levels of governmental functionaries must be brought
within the purview of constitutional framework by enacting laws for controlling their formal
as well as informal constituents. A large scale connectivity has to be ensured.
• Ethical Framework – Apart from legal framework, morality has to be the key area where any society must work out
strategic plan by designing ethos before adopting e-governance. The framework gas to be
supportive of fundamental societal normative pattern so that it gets extra leverage for
perpetuating necessary values patterns.
• Role Shifting Strategies – New stresses are the by products of knowledge based society. Hence more humanitarian
psychological coping mechanisms based on collaborative role shifts have to be introduced.
Each role must shift in such a way that effects of change can be managed without resulting
into situation of crisis.

E-GOVERNANCE INDEX AROUND THE WORLD:
ACCORDING TO United Nations - Department of Economic and Social Affairs - Division
for Public Institutions and Digital Government:

E-GOVERNANCE AROUND THE WORLD:
E-Estonia: the Estonian e-government
Estonia is one of the most advanced countries in terms of e-
governance. This situation was not deliberate, but rather born out of
necessity after the country gained independence from the Soviet Union in
1991. At the time, apart from ridding themselves of the antiquated
Russian bureaucracy, the Estonian politicians realized that it was more
efficient and cost effective to accelerate the administration and equip it
with technology.
The result of this process is e-Estonia, an ecosystem that has enabled the
council of ministers to do away with the use of paper, laws are approved
with digital signature, public services are connected in order to optimize
resources and administrative procedures, like renewing a passport, can
be conducted while carrying out everyday activities such as waiting for the
bus.

United Kingdom's digital governance: the e-Government unit
In 2010, the United Kingdom launched Digital by Default to digitalize its
relationship with citizens. One year later the Gov.Uk portal was launched,
which directs all government activities towards a single digital platform.
The governing principles of this strategy are that citizens do not have to
provide the same information to different government entities more than
once, that all government officials working in the public sector must have
used the services being offered to citizens and, finally, that although all
the services are designed to be digital by default, this does not mean
there is not an information number or customer service desk to prevent
digital divides.

China's e-Government
Since being elected President of the People's Republic of China in 2012,
Xi Jinping tackled the modernization of the Chinese government,
embracing technology and artificial intelligence. One of the results of this
process was the big data collection system, which has also helped
to monitor the population.
In fact, one of the results of the Chinese e-governance is the social credit
system, a personal digital record system that awards points to citizens
based on morality and honesty, which determines how citizens can liaise
with the administration. Those who, according to the system, cannot be
trusted, will not be able to interact or carry out certain procedures with the
institutions. A form of e-governance originally designed in China, but with
general principles which, according to some experts, are already
established in the West but not by the government.

HISTORY OF e-Governance in the Philippines
1971 – The National Computer Center (NCC) was established by Executive Order 322.
1978 – NCC was designated the primary agency in government with the responsibility of directing IT us for national
development and rationalizing computerization in the country.
1994 – The National Information Technology Council (NITC) was created and designated as the central policy body on
ICT matters in the country (through E.0 190).
1998 – NITC was reorganized as the highest planning and policy advisory body on IT matters.
The Government launched IT21 which outlines the country’s action agenda for the 21st century. The plan promotes e-
governance and encourages the outsourcing of government ICT projects to stimulate industry growth.
Electronic Commerce Promotion Council (ECPC) was created in recognition of the country’s need for a coordinating
body to enhance public-private partnerships to promote and develop e-commerce in the Philippines.
1999 – NCC was tasked to provide NITC with professional and technical support.
2000 – Enactment of the e-Commerce Act. This law defines the Philippine government’s policies on electronic transactions
and provides the legal framework for enabling the country to engage in e-commerce.
Government Information System Plan (GISP) was approved and adopted as a framework and guide for all
computerization efforts in government (EO265). The GISP aims to create a system of governance that will lead to:
-Faster and better delivery of public goods and services
-Greater transparency in government operations
-Increased capacities of public sector organizations and
-Proactive participation of citizens in governance.
