  abstract      = {Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) are playing an increasingly vital role in the daily lives of people by revolutionizing their working procedures and rules of business. In the realm of government, ICT applications are promising to enhance the delivery of public goods and services to common people not only by improving the process and management of government, but also by redefining the age-old traditional concepts.
			The world is witnessing dynamic changes in all spheres of life, business and governments. The ICT which is the catalytic agent of this millennium offers magnitude of opportunities for a better world of tomorrow. Many countries have adhered to the wonders of the Internet technologies and have embraced diversified approaches for the advancement of their economies and betterment of their peoples’ lives.
			The realizations of ICTs on societies are over ambitious, far-reaching and uneven. In one aspect, ICT is influencing the transition from industrial-based economies to knowledge-based societies, in the aspect, ICT still has little or no impact of ICT around the world today underscores the uneven progress of economic development. It also portrays constricted and critical role of government within the information society.
			To achieve the real success of e-governance within the information society, there need to clarify the major issues surrounding e-Government, as well as adopt best practices in e-governance in the developing world. Glimpse of hopes are there that global leaders committed to e-Government are demonstrating far reaching achievements by combining technology with new ways of management with which government can be made much more effective, efficient, transparent and responsive for the betterment of the society.
			Ideally the ICT tools offer an unprecedented opportunity for community to access information over any geographical distances and across any sovereign state borders. Opportunities for networking and knowledge sharing are also unlimited, regardless of its perseverance. Furthermore, ICTs position in governance systems and practices have becoming widely participatory and inclusive, with endless economic opportunities.
			At the milestone of the World Summit of Information Society (WSIS), time has come to look backward, take a good view, breath a while, and re-think on strategies, policies and planning on the developing countries acting locally, regionally and globally along this hopeful road to success and prosperity.}
