Abstract

Based upon several reports of United Nation in e-government recently, we analyze and pinpoint the development lag of developing countries versus developed countries in the field of e-government. We consider two countries as a comparative case study, the developing country Viet Nam and the highly developed country South Korea. In this paper, we also find the drivers for the 1st position of South Korea and barriers and challenges of Viet Nam in e-Government developments. At the end of the paper, we address the recommendations for Korea to be constantly at its position and for Viet Nam to leap up from the existing position.
