    <abstract>The Sarawak Government has acknowledged the prospects of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and the Internet to its citizens. The rising need for e-government applications leads to the needs of the Sarawak Government to improve their online services. In the race for providing online services to the citizens, the Sarawak government does not want to be left behind. This paper highlights the success story behind e-government initiatives in Sarawak. First, it will explain the ICT governance and administration and also discuss the existing e-government&#13;
online applications and tools. Then, this article will highlight some of the e-government programmes to bridge the&#13;
digital divide and the effort on assessing Sarawak’s readiness into a knowledge society. This article will conclude with some suggestions and recommendations.</abstract>
