Abstract

Many countries are attempting to develop themselves as intelligent nations, equipped and empowered by advanced info-communications technology (ICT).

It examines the substance of the vision and highlights some of the initiatives implemented to realise the vision. It also discusses the different roles of the government in implementing the iN2015 vision and some of the challenges ahead.
