of the e-Government collaboration between the State
of Kuwait and Singapore

bilateral relations between both countries

Both governments expressed satisfaction with
the level of bilateral co-operations and progress so far for
projects such as the Kuwait Government Portal, the Kuwait
Information Network and the establishment of Kuwait's own
Central Infocomm Technology (IT) Entity to drive e-Government
implementation. Dr Al-Shatti said that the structure of the
IT entity would be the same as the IDA in Singapore, adding
that much could be learnt from the Singapore experience in
this field.
Singapore has also invited senior officials
from the Kuwaiti government to attend the newly formed Singapore
e-Government Leadership Centre (eGL) as both countries continue
to exchange knowledge and share experiences in implementing
e-Government.
In a joint statement, Dr Al-Shatti and Dr
Lee reiterated their desire to continue collaborating as both
countries have established a strong relationship, and can
look forward to a deeper commitment to strengthen bilateral
relations and to jointly explore opportunities for mutual
benefit.
