Introduction of g0v.tw at OpenDataHK.meet.12

Sammy @ OpenDataHK.meet.12

OpenDataHK.meet.12 was hosted at The Good Lab on 12/12.

I checked out that Guy’s idea to create a website opengov.hk for every member of the public to easily make requests under the code to the Government, and for all responses to be public.

g0v.tw is a good example from Taiwan, which is a open data & open source community. As content on their web site are all Chinese, but most of OpenDataHK folks are foreigners, so OpenDataHK folks doesn’t know g0v.tw. Therefore, I asked for any available slot for a lightning talk, and thanks Mart and Bastien to help.

In my lightning talk for few minutes, I introduced some g0v.tw projects, and what am I doing which will help to create Hong Kong forks of g0v. And lastly I promote MaD 2014 in Hong Kong and a meetup with one of g0v.tw co-founder clkao.
