The government is also planning to introduce Linux on a number of other fronts next year and is hoping the private sector will follow suit. It plans to spend at least 100 billion won (approximately $100 million, 21 milliárd HUF) promoting the adoption of open source software next year in the public sector as a part of its e-government drive.
The Ministry of Planning and Budget (MPB) announced earlier this year it plans to use open source software for 37 projects in 23 government agencies next year. These include a next-generation e-learning quality management system to be established by the Ministry of Education and Human Resource Development, a meteorological information exchange system to be set up by the Meteorological Agency, and a food and drug integrated information system courtesy of the Food and Drug Administration.
Figures compiled by the MPB suggest the use of open source software in the 37 projects is expected to save the government 6.1 billion won or around 22 per cent on the total hardware and operating system cost of 28 billion won.
The MPB also plans to allow government organizations to independently select software they want to use, and jointly sponsor open source classes for software engineers with the Korea Software Promotion Agency. Financial institutions lead march to Linux in Korea
