Officials to be held responsible for failure to update websites

China Daily | Updated: 2015-03-27 07:37

MOST COUNTY-LEVEL AND ABOVE GOVERNMENTS in China have their own websites, but many of them have become "zombies' that are never updated. These zombie sites will hopefully disappear after the State Council announced on Tuesday that it will launch a general survey of government websites nationwide, and those that fail to update regularly will be removed. Comments:

Worse than zombies are the kind of government websites that update regularly without providing any useful information; all they do is to boast of the "good performance" of officials and require citizens to be obedient. The government websites that fail to provide useful information should also be removed. Government websites should serve the public, instead of officials.
