Capitalising on our Strong Foundation

E-Government Action Plan II, valued at S$1.3 billion, capitalises on the strong foundation established by the first Plan and our long history of government computerisation. New strategies to adapt to the needs of the changing environment have been incorporated to herald a new era in e-Government.

Singapore – A leading e-Government in the world

Singapore has become one of the most advanced e-Governments in the world and has been recognised internationally as a leader in e-Government. We are consistently ranked 2nd in Accenture's annual global e-Government report (2000-2004). We also topped the e-Government segment in World Economic Forum’s Networked Readiness Index for three years in a row (2002–2004). Singapore won the prestigious Stockholm Challenge Award (2002) for the eCitizen portal.
