In 2005 the country was placed at 64 and currently it is at 83, surpassed by 12 Latin American countries.
Despite the progress made in the process of modernizing of the State and the automatization of government bureaucracy, Panama fell 19 spots in the global ranking of electronic government (E-Government) by the United Nations (UN).
The automating of processes is not enough, all the "islands" of the State must be digitally connected, warned Goethals.
