The South African government will launch by July the Batho Pele Gateway portal which will provide streamlined government services online, says South African President Thabo Mbeki.
In his state of the nation address to the newly elected Parliament on Friday, Mbeki said these would be available through public information terminals in post offices and multi-purpose community centres.
Altogether about 60 community centres would be built by the end of the year “and plans [will be] finalised to have at least one of these in each of our 284 municipal areas”. – I-Net Bridge
