Abstract: Firstly, this paper summarizes the practical experience of China’s digital government construction in top-level design, construction dimensions, technical support, platform construction and data opening. Secondly, it points out the problems of regional imbalance, information islands, insufficient investment in digital infrastructure, imperfect online government services and increasingly prominent data security risks in the process of digital government construction. Finally, based on analyzing the logic mechanism of China’s digital government construction, this paper points out that we should deepen the construction of digital government, strengthen the top-level design, improve the construction of the national-level digital government platform, attach importance to the application of new information technology, create a closed loop of digital government, realize the integration of “online and offline” government services, and improve data security and supervisory capabilities. Those are important paths of improving the construction of China’s digital government.

Key words:  new era, digital government, improvement path
