Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Public Management : International Collaboration for Innovated Public Governance (ICPM 2018)

Internationalization has become more than a function of international affairs, but has tied into all roles of public agencies, as a result of globalization, regionalization, and digitalization. Hence, Public Governance needed to be reshaped in order to fit the intergovernmental relations with an alignment of domestic and international public expectations. While the state citizen turns into netizen or digital citizen, public demands have been shared with higher expectations and participations. Turmoil in one state could easily be shared to the world in no time as well as a breakthrough public service program. In order to secure the effectiveness in delivering social welfare, good governance exercising will have to be upgraded. The world population is looking forward to see a more inclusive and equitable development with sustainability. Such development could be achieved with international cooperation and innovation in public management.
