  •   Free full-text access Open AccessMeasuring User Acceptance on E-Government Adoption in an Indonesian Context: A Study of Extended Technology Acceptance Model
    ( Free Full-text Access ) CC-BY-NC-ND
    by Maria Anityasari, Andreas C. Pamungkas, Agus I. Sonhaji 
    Abstract: The City Office for Population Administration and Civil Registration in Surabaya, Indonesia, introduced KLAMPID, an e-government system for residents to access administration services. To evaluate user acceptance and ensure sustainability, an extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was employed in this study. The research aims to provide a framework applicable to developing countries with municipal agencies adopting e-government systems. With Surabaya's unique challenges, the methodology involves a literature review, TAM application with additional variables, and questionnaires distributed to 363 respondents. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was used for analysis, revealing 15 supported hypotheses, 12 with positive correlations. Notably, trust, perceived risk, attitude towards use, and perceived usefulness demonstrated negative path coefficients. The extended TAM model effectively represents 60% of users' behavioural intentions in adopting KLAMPID, offering original insights applicable to similar research in developing countries with emerging e-governance systems.
    Keywords: E-government; Technology Acceptance Model; Extended TAM; PLS-SEM.

  • Criminal Protection of Electronic Signatures from Forgery in Jordanian And UAE Legislation   Order a copy of this article
    by Ashraf Al-Rai, Nayel AlOmran 
    Abstract: This paper focuses on the importance of electronic signature in civil and commercial transactions, especially considering the widespread use of the internet. It discusses the issue of electronic signature forgery, which has become one of the negative consequences of globalisation. The main problem addressed in this paper is the ease of forging electronic signatures, and the lack of legal protection against these crimes in Jordanian laws. The paper used the descriptive, analytical, deductive, and comparative approach. The authors found that the Jordanian laws related to crimes and electronic transactions do not explicitly stipulate the act of forging electronic signatures, and that the protection contained therein is for data, credit information, and electronic space only, and this is a clear deficiency. To address this problem, the paper recommends approving a special text criminalising the forgery of signatures and electronic documents in the Jordanian cybercrime law, like UAE legislation.
    Keywords: forgery; electronic signature; UAE legislation; Jordanian legislation.

  • Implementation Success of Automated Systems for Customs Data in Developing Countries. An Empirical Evidence of Uganda Revenue Authority   Order a copy of this article
    by Peter Manana, Faisal Mubuke, Lawrence Nkamwesiga, Philip Khatiya, Ayub Masaba 
    Abstract: The study focused on examining the relationship between the factors that influence the implementation success of automated system for customs data usage in the Uganda Revenue Authority. A cross-sectional and quantitative survey design were adopted consisting of a sample of 118 respondents from the three eastern regional branches of the Uganda Revenue Authority. The findings revealed a positive and significant relationship between perceived systems quality, self-management of usage, perceived net benefits, perceived information quality, and implementation success of ASYCUDA World and moderated by User Attitude. The predictive power of the study variables was found to be 35% (Adjusted R Square = 0.350). In this regard, perceived systems quality, self-management of usage, perceived net benefits and perceived information quality were found to be better predictors of the implementation success of ASYCUDA World. This study adds to the body of knowledge available by generating further evidence regarding the factors influencing the implementation success of ASYCUDA World in Uganda Revenue Authority.
    Keywords: ASYCUDA World; Systems Quality; Net Benefits; Information Quality; Self- Management of Usage; Implementation Success.
