    Abstract: 甘比亞電子化政府之服務計畫
    In this study, I conduct an in depth research on the e-government trends in the world and map out a way for The Gambia to follow and implement its e-government initiatives and use examples from Taiwan to plot a vibrant future for e-government in The Gambia. The lessons learnt from other countries, which are based on the literature review and their initiatives and experiences are also useful to The Gambia.
    I use my experience as a civil servant of The Gambia to look at e-government strategies and practice to map the way forward for an effective and responsive e-government project for the entire government. This will enable other e-programs such as e-administration for government and e-commerce for business to take root, and replicate the successes enjoyed in Taiwan. A literature review and a case study on Taiwan’s e-government experiences are used to support my arguments and show how the government and The Gambian people can benefit. New challenges that Government must overcome and address are identified in order for it to reach its desired knowledge based society vision 2020. Finally, a roadmap for the successful implementation of e-government services is proposed for The Gambia. I will rely on data from The Gambia Government colleagues, as well as secondary data from other countries and the literature on e-Government and government innovation.

    Notes:
    According to the Centre for International Development at Harvard University, Taiwan is rated “excellent” in Internet preparedness. The World Markets research Centre has agreed with this assessment, observing that Taiwan government institutions provide top online services. The Centre for Public Policy at Brown University in a report Global E-Government has ranked Taiwan in the top five since 2002. In 2008, Taiwan ranked no.2 after South Korea. This author has worked in the Taiwan e-government office and saw first seriously the government of ROC takes matter relating to e-government. It is all aimed at maintaining Taiwan’s competitive edge and giving the citizens the best.
    Taiwan one of the four tigers of Asia, the others are Hong Kong, Korea and Singapore. It is worthy to note that these four tigers are also in the forefront of the e-government leading countries.
    Dr. Sung, Joo Park is an e-government expert and Professor at the Korean Advanced Institute for science and Technology- Conversation took place on November, 2008.
