USD 799 million allocated for e-Governance in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia has allocated USD 799 million to set up infrastructure facilities required for providing 150 e-Government services within the next five years.

According to the Culture and Information Minister Iyad Madani, the e-Government program would include 150 main services and more than 1,000 subsidiary services by 40 government agencies.

The e-Government program is aimed at enabling government agencies to use electronic communications to extend their services to the public and the private sector. This would improve the efficiency of government departments and help create a more investment-friendly atmosphere in the Kingdom.
