With the development of Internet Technology, Electric Service has been popular in the light of the prompt, simple, easy functions. At the same time, E-government has become the key part of politics in the industrial countries. After many countries completed the basic facilities of information in the government, they have focused the construction of government website. That is to say that government website has been the core of E-government at present. In recent years, kinds of government websites have appeared in China, But compared with the websites of developed countries, China government websites is at the elementary level. As is well known to all, the website which Singaporean government has is the first class all over the world. Therefore, we have China website government compare with the website which Singapore government has is very useful because the comparison between them is not only to conduce to handle the trend of E-Government, which makes us take an objective knowledge of the functions which can be realized and the use which is madeof government website now and in the future, but also to have a good effect on that we face the deficiency of construction of China government website and work out the problems which happen in the course of building the E-Government. The other reason that we select the websites of Singaporean government as the comparative objective is that Singapore is a high-urbanization country, whose area is very small, and its successful experiences in building the government website have the value of reference to the development of government websites of many cities in China. In addition, What we can learn from Singapore is that Singapore is good at make use of the advanced technology of information in the public service, which is an example of putting the information into the public service learned from by China.The thesis contains three parts:The first is about the overview of government website. In this part, we introduce the condition of use of information technology in the governmental service for common people. The part explain the definitions about E-government and government website and their relationship, and also introduce the basic functions and its development.The second part is about the comparative research between websites of two countries. This part is the key of the thesis. In this part the thesis introduces and compares thoroughly the environment of two countries, the mode of motivation on government websites of the two government. Thispart also is to analyze the functions of government website.The third part is about suggestion of developing the websites of China government. In this part, based on the comparative analysis in the last section, the conclusion or the suggestion is presented. The flaws of Chinese government websites are described, on the basis of which, the thesis put out the suggestion of governmental websites of China in the future according to the condition of China.When it studies the relative things of government website, the thesis applies the several methods of research, mainly theme comparison and countries comparison, which is accompanied by the research methods of discussion on kinds of documents and positivist analysis etc. As a kind of research which is practical, the research on government website have been popular with construction of websites in globe. In China, the building of government website began in 1990s., whose real development is in the latest years. Though the beginning of government website of China is very late, our research is not far away from the world. Many researchers make research from the different parts including definition, function and the situation of development of government website of China. But, we should know the research on government website is at the level of why we should build the government website of China, which are lack of answers to how to construct the government website. From all of research, it is short of the significance of direction to practice or is far away from situation of China. All of thesemethods of research in the thesis will help us on take an entire knowledge of government website from a high level, which makes us realize the gap at the part of E-government between China and the advanced countries in order that we can present concrete suggestions to narrow the gap. It is believed that the r methods of research used in the thesis will also makes the thesis better-knit than others, and the thesis have a doable success.Through comparison of websites between China and Singapore, we can find that the environment which the government website exists in need to be improved further, the mode which the Chinese government put forward to develop the government website of China need to be improved step by step and the main functions which the government websites have need to be strengthened. But Singapore government have the very successful experience in all these sections, which can set for examples to the construction of websites of Chinese government. Combining the situation of China, the future development of websites of Chinese government must pay attention to apply to the following parts: first of all, Chinese government should pay great attention on the network facilities to raise the usage of Internet in Chinese daily life. The second is to quicken to make legality about E-government business and set up the advanced system of E-government business. The third is to build the government website whose principle is public-centered. The forth is improving the functions about websites of Chinese government in the different parts according to the necessity of different area. The fifth is todifferent parts according to the necessity of different area. The fifth is to rebuild the governmental institution by means of reform and put forward the online service to one-site service. At the end, the thesis have got this opinion that if the government do the job according to the above solution, it is benefit to make China implement "after-development" of China and at last the websites will work well and quickly.
