City services drive further down the high-tech route

Shanghai wants to transform its public services to provide an integrated and high-tech government.

The city is creating an online government service center to be a "single window," providing government services and information sharing.

Officials say it has largely achieved an "integrated linkage" with the online government service center, the district administrative service center and the transaction service center of streets and communities.

The municipal commission of economy and information technology led the promotion of the opening and sharing of government data. Over 1,200 data resources covering the main business fields of various municipal departments is now open to the public.
