ABSTRACT

In order to enhance the overall capacity of IT convergence, Lee, Myung-bak administration reshuffled government organization in Feb. 2008. The Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) was dissolved, and its functions were distributed four other ministries. Currently, IT has been selected as a new growth engine industry for all ministries. Therefore, four ministries are focusing their IT policy efforts into departmental level. In December 2008, the government announced Framework Plan for National Informatization, which would guide a new policy direction. However, the promotion policy of ICT industry was not properly working because of the organizational conflicts. Therefore, IT control tower and council should be established for policy coordination. And IT governance with IT related budget process is strongly required.
