Overall contents of the magazine are good. More space may be given to case studies of actual implementation of e-governance project in government offices howsoever small they may be.

A small column indicating usefulness of computers for day-to-day in administrative problems can be started in which practical solutions devised by the readers may also be given. A small quiz type feature may also be added.

I read the online version of this magazine. It is a very good effort.
Mahesh C Verma, Director, IT Linguistics Institute, Luxembourg

To my opinion, the magazine has very timely coverage and easy style of dissemination.

My suggestion to this magazine is to have holistic cover of the e-Gov initiatives of various States across the country. Target the youth of the country and make them aware of the e-Gov potential by introducing the e-Gov subject into their course curriculum both for B.Tech/B.E(IT,CSE,ECE,EEE,Mech) ,MCA, and MBA Courses and target several articles and papers for this cross section of the audience.
Dr.V.Prithviraj, Professor and Vice Principal, Pondicherry Engineering College

It has become the major publication on regional e-gov developments, trends and concepts. It has a very current approach to regional situation. Since I receive the hardcopy regularly, I rarely visit the site. From my little experience it is a good site providing all relevant info electronically
Wasantha Deshapriya, Director, Re-Gov, ICTA, Sri Lanka

The contents have improved extensively. The new content/ services available through various e-gov websites of various governments would be of interest to the readers.
P K Garg, Wireless Adviser to the GoI, Dept. of IT, India

It is very nice international magazine. I gave interview to the magazine about the e-Governance in Estonia in 2005, after that I am systematically reading the magazine and I think it is very interesting and useful for e-government experts in all around the world.  Continue with the good job!

e-Governance Academy, Estonia

It has come a long way to become one of the respected magazines in this rapildy changing field of

e-Government – will soon become a must read magazine for anyone involved in e-Government and who wants to stay current in this area. Coverage on emerging good practices in

e-Government applications with clear evidence and analysis; what has worked and what has not worked; in and underlying reasons, current thinking from the world’s leading e-Government experts; covering both operational and policy areas; changing roles of public and private sector in the provision of e-Government services; sustainability of e-Government programs; Impact of e-Gov programs and its methodology could also be helpful for the readers.

A good focused magazine, providing lot of value addition for decision makers in e-gov space
Subhash Patil, System Manager, Kalyan Dombivli Municipal Corporation, Mumbai

As I am viewing only online copies, the concept is very good, and is growing day by day by opening more areas to it. Wish egov very good circulation and a very happy new year!

Career counseling / more options and details about IT industry, detailed reports and success stories of different individuals to motivate coming generation would be very useful.

Sghalini Luthra, Front Desk Executive, Ahloeon International School, India

It has grown to become a informative magazine for egov people. It gives a snapshot of egov events, issues and developments even though most information is India based.
Magazine is a good source of information on mainly Indian e-gov although thematic issues do embrace others. But as a magazine it is more vendors driven in tone and style. I would like to see some critical essays on e-gov. You have some occasionally but it isn’t a regular feature

Hazman Shah Abdullah, Professor, Universiti Teknologi Mara, Malaysia

egov is improving every year. Would like to know about new projects awarded by the government every month.
Alok Gupta, Managing Director, Samtech Infotech Ltd., India

It is a good endeavour.  It must include feedback from rural areas.

N. K. Chhibber, Secretary General, Pacific Telephone Council India Foundation

I am reading the online version of this magazine and is a fantastic effort to provide information sharing platform between e- Governance stake holders of our country.

Prof Ashok R Patel, Director of Computer Department, Ph.D. (E-governance), North Gujarat University, India

It needs improvement like focusing on benchmarking and local governance. Technical training or information to develop the lowly paid government employees. Accomplishments are good but will not help develop the personal technical and management skills of government employees.Give technical and management training information to develop government employee’s capability
Edward C. Larubis, Provincial Assessor, Philippines

Reading this magazine for last 2 years and I must say that it has been filling a much felt void.
Ram K Goel, Vice President, Infostep, India
