Abstract

In this paper we describe the concepts of government, governance, reform, e-Government and development of e-Government. We present a case of a referendum in Maldives and the use of ICT by the Office of the Commissioner of Elections (OCE). We found that the OCE was in the initial stages, of e-Government development which was exemplified by publishing of information and simple communication. We noted that the lack of human and financial resources and limitations of national ICT infrastructure were the main challenges in the development of e-Government for OCE. We also noted that the currently e-Government project to provide a shared services platform and national connectivity has the potential to help the country leap frog through the stages of e-Government development.The opinions or points of view expressed are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official position or policies of NCIT, OCE or the Government of Maldives.
