ICT 4 D • Problems: • ICT policy is politically dependent • There is no unified indicators to measure ICT development • There is no IT standards • There is no evaluation of E-Mongolia National Program implementation • E-Government master plan is not implemented, because it’s not understandable for stakeholders • There is a lack of IT human resource policy • There are overlappings of ICT projects and initiatives
Is ICT developing in Mongolia? • Research questions: • Can current structure of regulatory body for ICT effectively lead the development of ICT sector? • Is ICT development in Mongolia growing or descending? • Has ICT development in Mongolia impacted to the social and economic development of the country for last 5 years? • How accessible information to public? • What was achieved through E-Mongolia National program approval?
