E-Governement Second Seminar - Maarab 4-2-2016

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea touted electronic government as an answer to Lebanon’s corruption and bureaucratic red tape Friday, adding that his party’s lawmakers have already prepared a draft law to establish an “e-government.”
Geagea, who spoke from Maarab at a conference entitled “Electronic Government: For a Better Society,” said an electronic government could reduce costs, enhance the productivity of the public sector and facilitate better, faster services for citizens.
“We all know that finishing administrative paperwork takes all day,” he said, lamenting the lost time and corruption when citizens go to renew official documents.
