e-Government vs. the Real World Almost 87 million people live in Guangdong province, one of the areas of greater technology concentration Here's a great quote from the Renmin Ribao (Peoples' Daily) on the Chinese bureaucracy's acceptance of e-government: The government staff still love to work in the real world despite mounting calls for e-government services. I guess some people are still having a hard time making the connection between their cyber-world and everything else.  Like many of the rest of us, the Chinese are having a hard time with adoption which is critical to justify more e-government investment.  It is a priority here.  By the end of 2005, the Chinese hope to have broadband to 150 million people, 11 percent of the population. 4:56:46 PM    comment []
