As part of the E-Government project initiated to provide government services with the most advanced technology, the internet portal consists of important information from government agencies.
While more than 300 forms of different government agencies can be downloaded from “egov.mv,” accessible in both English and local Dhivehi language, it contains information on service hours, important contact information of agencies and senior government officials and NGO listings.
Chief Executive of National Centre for Information Technology (NCIT) Faiq Umar said many recipients would be able to obtain government services easily via the e-government portal.
“The portal will enable businesses to obtain the required services easily. It will also solve many problems faced in going to the agencies,” he said.
Deputy Communications Minister Ahmed Fayaz said missing information and suggestions could be mailed to the authority.
“If information of a government agency changes, they will update the portal,” he said.
A Sri Lankan company named NCS Pvt Ltd. develops the U $3.36 million (Rf43.1 miillion) Maldives e-government system.
