With e-government becoming more and more accepted, many governments use modern design and technology to enhance their online presence and benefit their people. China's local governments are no exception to this rule. They publish up-to-date and authoritative information, provide services to the public, and even exchange ideas with netizens, giving the public easy access to the governments.
