Transforming Government since 2001
This morning came the results of a survey conducted by China Youth Daily and Sina.com that a large number of the country's Internet users were not satisfied with government websites and want them to be more "interactive" and "helpful". Less than 7 percent of respondents thought them "satisfactory". China has the world's largest Internet population and such findings are truly troublesome.

While reading this it reminded me of a good friend I have of mixed Thai/Dutch heritage who works at The Hague within their e-government sector. Years back we were both infant interns at the Bangkok Post, fresh faced and willing to do almost anything to get our names in print. Well we stayed in touch and last year I was fascinated when I learnt of her current position as a back-end civil servant operator.

The International Department of the Central Committee of CPC, the Ministry of Commerce of China, and the State Archives Administration of China have started to promote the Chinese-made Uniform Office Format standard, and it will be promoted in at least six ministries in China before the end of 2008.

UOF is a standard document format for the new generation of China's office-related software and it uses XML contained in a compressed file container. It competes with the OpenDocument format, which was developed by the Open Office XML technical committee of the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards.

Mehr Nutzer als die USA, mehr Domains als Deutschland

Mit Ende Juni 2008 konnte China 253 Millionen Internetnutzer vorweisen und hat damit erstmals die USA als Spitzenreiter abgelöst. In dieser Woche hat die chinesische länderspezifische Top-Level-Domain (ccTLD) .cn auch die deutsche Endung .de überholt und ist damit die größte ccTLD im Internet. Das berichtet die staatliche Nachrichtenagentur Xinhua unter Berufung auf gestern, Donnerstag, veröffentlichte Zahlen des China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC). Damit erhebt China den Anspruch, nun Internet-Nation Nummer eins zu sein.
