| description | The world’s Industrial Revolution 4.0 and Society 5.0 are massively utilising the Internet of Things, Big
Data, Artificial Intelligence and Robotic technology to solve various challenges and social problems. The
challenge for the government now is to fully utilise these technologies to improve public services and
government administrations. This study focuses on the transformation process of an e-government to
become a digital government. The study aims to analyse the current development of e-government in
Indonesia and the barriers to implement it as well as to propose how to transform from being an e-government to becoming a digital government. It uses a qualitative approach supported by secondary
data. Focus Group Discussion was held in May 2019 to identify e-government barriers factors. The
secondary data, meanwhile, was collected through e-government surveys published by the United
Nations and E-government Evaluation issued by Indonesia’s Ministry of Empowerment Apparatus and
Bureaucracy Reform. Data obtained was analysed using descriptive analysis techniques. Study shows
that the development of Indonesia’s e-government is slow and lags behind other ASEAN countries. The
E-government index in government institutions is not on target. There is a gap between the e-government indexes and central institutions and gaps between the Provincial and Regency / City
Governments. The barriers factors of e-government are: (1) Regulations are not sufficient enough to
encourage and guide e-government (2) Lack of data integration; (3) Gaps in the availability of ICT
infrastructure between regions; (4) Limited ICT competence and, (5) Bureaucratic culture and
leadership. |
