It is good news that the government websites in Beijing have taken the initiative to "slim down" and do "subtraction". This also means that the "slimming" of local government websites should be put on the agenda. According to the data of 20 15, there are nearly 85,000 government websites in China, but the operation and maintenance situation is quite bad. More than 90% of government websites are almost inaccessible and become "zombie websites". Among them, the top 1% government websites account for 90.25% of the total national visits. Even the government websites with visits have many problems, such as untimely updating, irregular publicity, unprofessional answering questions from netizens and so on. Therefore, such websites are either ridiculed as "wonderful websites" by the public and public opinion, or incited by netizens into public events ... and the result is tortured by public opinion.
Therefore, the slimming of government websites is not a simple subtraction, but a drastic operation. None of the "zombie websites" can be left, and the "wonderful websites" cannot continue to exist. Those websites that obviously do not conform to the disclosure of government information should be included in the normal supervision, and those that do not rectify should also be "reduced". Since 20 15, the general office of the State Council started the "slimming" action of government websites, the number of government websites has decreased by more than 50,000.
The number of Beijing municipal government websites has been reduced from 1042 to 80, and the proportion of "slimming" has exceeded 93%. It seems that it is true that Beijing has "reduced" government websites. The State Council General Office has the requirement of "slimming" the government website, Beijing has made a demonstration of "slimming" the government website, and other regions can't be soft on "subtracting" the government website.
However, the government website is not a pure arithmetic problem, and of course it can't become a number game of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The existence of government websites has three meanings: one is the carrier of government information disclosure; The second is the big data link between the power sector and people's livelihood; Third, the most important thing-the government website represents the administrative level of the administrative organs according to law and the people-oriented service ability. Obviously, government websites should not only have corresponding normative forms, but also have the power to accept public supervision and satisfy the people. Therefore, the "subtraction" of government websites is both reduction and formalism. The quality and quantity of government websites are not much. Just like Beijing, minus 93% of government websites can better operate and maintain 7% of government websites.
China society has been deeply connected with the era of big data, and the public has also adapted to the lifestyle of the Internet era. Government websites must adapt to people's demands in the era of big data, so that people can obtain real and effective government information and procedures conveniently and economically. Beijing's approach is to subtract the extra 93%, and "one district, one network, one department and one network" is enough.
After streamlining and integration, 7% of government websites will centrally manage information data and provide content services through unified standard system, unified technology platform, unified security protection and unified operation and maintenance supervision, so as to realize the optimization and integration of website resources and mutual recognition and sharing of data, and completely solve the "information island" and "data chimney".
Platform integration and data optimization of government websites can give full play to the information disclosure and public service functions of government websites, that is, through information release, interpretation and response, service and interactive exchange, a new government big data service platform can be built, so that the public can understand national policies, government information and related work processes without leaving home. That is, as the relevant person in charge in Beijing said, "it is as convenient for the masses to do things as online shopping." Indeed, if the power department really cares about people's livelihood, it will make the government website more practical, useful and useful like the e-commerce platform.
There are many excellent government websites, and "slimming" is the proper meaning to improve the effective supply of government websites. Beijing has made a good start, and other places should also conduct a thorough "streamlining and integration" of government websites in light of local conditions, which is also a supply-side structural reform in the transformation of government functions. On the consumer side of government websites, the public can enjoy personalized, convenient and intelligent services of government websites.
