National Jokes.. e-govt?


Seriously.. most of our .gov websites are jokes. Most look like primary school children projects.
RTB just launched their RTB City website.. I went in to have a look and saw this (Click About US, Spell Organisation).

I can't believe they had a launching ceremony for this crap and i cannot believe that "Pg Dato Ismail was proud to mention that RTB’s website is ranked top 10 among other government website worldwide.." Maybe the reason why its top 10 is so it allows people to come have a good laugh at us. The links travel from english to malay and english again.. the international programme is in malay.. the site themes are all inconsistent.. blah blah blah. Come on.. if you cant do it yourself pay someone like Kurapak.com to do it. This is a NATIONAL EMBARASSMENT!

At the time of posting this, our ISPs are also damn hilarious. I couldnt even upload a 60kb file for a screen shot.

Here is the :
1) BBC for comparison. and here is
2) Bangladesh's National TV site. At least they can keep the theme consistent!
3) Here is China's CCTV.
4) Here is the US .gov portal
5) Here is SIngapore's .gov
6) Here is Malaysia's .gov
7) Here is UK's .gov
8) Here is South Africa
9) Here is Brazil's
10) Here is Taiwan
11) Here is Japan

Where does our .gov sites fit in any of those???? And these are just all random..
