IntroductionIntroduction
The world is underway a paradigmatic change from the Industrial Age to the Information and Knowledge Age
- In response, a number of countries have been investing in ‘knowledge and information management’ or ‘e-government’ projects.
- Now sharing knowledge and information among agencies within government and between government and private and non-profit organizations has been a crucial issue.
In Korea, the issue has been emphasized since the early 1990
- Korean government issued ‘Cyber Korea 21’ as a blueprint for Knowledge-based information nation.
- Furthermore, President Kim unveiled a nation-wide plan to change the quality, nature, and flow of knowledge and information in his New Year’s Message.

Description of KRM Projects(2)Description of KRM Projects(2)
The primary objectives of KRM projects are:
- digitizing all valuable and useful knowledge and information to preserve and
utilize at a national-level and - making a national integrated knowledge base or repositories to allow easy access to them free of time and location. - developing a National Knowledge and Information Portal System(NKIPS)to in
tegrate all digitized knowledge and information
Thus, the vision of KRM projects is to build a ‘e- Korea armed with knowledge and information network
- The high-speed and robust knowledge and information network will enable Right person to easily get Right knowledge and information Right time at his desk : Actualizing 3Rs
