The World Government Summit is an important event gathering government representatives together to learn from other countries’ expertise, Egyptian Planning Minister Ashraf el Araby said.

Speaking on the sidelines of the summit, Araby said the UAE is a very advanced country in terms of technology used in governmental service bodies.

Egypt has a new smart application in this regard but it is at its very beginning as it offers services to a number of governorates, he said.

The UAE example can be applied in Egypt but it needs a lot of work, database and security, he said.
