Mobile government readiness in Africa : the case of Malawi.

Includes abstract. / Includes bibliographical references. / The research problem is: To what extent are governments of least developed countries ready to realise mobile government? Malawi as a least developed country was the sample used as case study. The objective was to assess the extent of government preparedness to realise mobile government in Malawi. To assess the government readiness for m-government, a study was conducted to find out the availability of factors that would support m-government and mobile services in Malawi. The motivation of the study was that there is scanty/no m-government readiness research that has been conducted before for LDCs. Concentration is not on the individual dimension such as technology, but rather the focus is on an overall m-government readiness, which includes the high level dimensions (themes) of technology, organisation, environment and tasks.
