These characteristics form the basis of Citizens’ Self-Knowledge. Decision making in e-government is a collaborative action between the government who functions to serve the public and the citizen who are the recipient of the government services. Such collaboration would provide best e-government model (planning, application) and other parts of the e- government initiatives.
