Kazakhstan will provide technical
assistance to an African country in developing e-government. According to the
Kazakhstan Agency for International Development (KazAID), the transfer of digital
components of eGov took place under grant support to Sierra Leone. As part of
the signed memorandum of cooperation for exporting Kazakh IT solutions, the
Smart Bridge Service Showcase, Unified Platform for Internet Resources of
Government Agencies, and Smart Data Ukimet information and analytical system
were provided. Currently, a Kazakh delegation is assessing Sierra Leone’s
digital maturity in information and communication infrastructure to facilitate
further IT solution implementations.
«Currently, we are continuing to
analyze the infrastructure and audit existing regulatory acts in Sierra Leone
to identify areas needing enhancements for faster implementation of our
products. Concurrently, we will commence training government agencies in Sierra
Leone to use these tools. We are awaiting the provision of servers that meet
the necessary specifications for the complete installation of these products,» said
Dmitriy Mun, Acting Chairman of National Information Technologies.
Notably, Kazakhstan ranks high
in international e-government rankings. For example, the country is 28th out of
193 nations in the E-Government Development Index and eighth in the Online
Service Index.
