Summary

Introduction

Public service delivery by the government should be focused on what citizens want instead of what providers are ready to give (Tamrakar, 2010). Providing services efficiently and effectively to citizens is a primary responsibility of the government (Oyedele, 2015). The government must view complaints from people as an indication of organizational performance appraisal, or problems that need fast recovery to avert migration of clients (Filip, 2013). Public services must be available for all people in the community and provided equitably (Broadbent, & Guthrie, 2008). In the case of Bahrain, there have been several complaints from citizens about performance of public services. Electronic Transformation, Information & eGovernment Authority‟s of Bahrain, stated that the number of complaints received since 2014 until 2017 about different government services was 36000.
