Citizens will not stay in lines for passports and ID cards. From July this year, the citizens will be able to appoint meeting in the MI office from their home PC. This is just a part of the novelties and alleviations that will be implemented with the projects for electronic public services.

Passports and ID cards will be the first public services available on-line. The Government and the Parliament will be included later. This was announced by the president of the Committee for Information Technology within the Macedonian Government, Jani Makraduli, during the seminar “Solutions for the Governments of the 21st century” organized by Hewlett Packard and Microsoft on January 20th, 2005. Projects are part of the Strategic Partnership Agreement between the Government and Microsoft. First project is about on-line appointments for passports and ID cards.

”Projects for e-government services and e-market will be implemented very soon. With the former project the citizens can obtain information about on-line services offered by the Government, and the latter is about enhancing competition in domestic business sphere. In the following months the project about connection between the Government and the Parliament will be realised. This project should decrease the use of paper in internal communication,” said Ilijancho Gagovski, Microsoft’s general manager in Macedonia.

”Macedonia has achieved great progress in the implementation of IT. I was surprised that the country has the strategy for development in the following three to five years,” said Helene Belndorfer, Hewlett Packard.

According to her Macedonia is getting closer to the world programs in that sphere which will contribute to improvement of the work of the state bodies and to achieve the EU standards.
