The document discusses how open government can lead to positive results. It presents principles for open government success, including defining openness as accessibility to knowledge and fulfillment. Co-creation and connection are key, achieved through collaborative technology that leverages social media and web 2.0 to engage citizens. A 3-step approach is proposed: start conversations, run citizen-centric pilots, and use web technologies. Benefits include innovation, efficiency, collective wisdom, and public participation. Pitfalls to avoid are exclusivity, lack of goals, and inflexibility. The vision presented is for Singapore to become a world-class example of open government.
