Let me take this opportunity to inform all that the OGI is working on a new web portal. A public beta release has just been launched to help the OGI provide the best possible service to Sierra Leoneans at home and in the diaspora. The URL to the beta release is http://ogi.gov.sl or http://sierraleoneopengov.org or just Google the phrase "Sierra Leone Open Government Initiative"

Please take some time to visit the site and send us your feedback. One interesting document you may want to check the website out for is the 2012 Citizens Report Card Final Report on the President's Agenda for Change. Very interesting report because its probably the first of it kind. It will give you a lot of insight about what has been going on or what is still going on in Sierra Leone. The direct link to that report is http://ogi.gov.sl/content/2012-citizens-report-card-on-presidents-agenda-change-final-report

The direct link to the feedback form is at http://ogi.gov.sl/content/web-application-use-experience-feedback-form

Enjoy and have fun reading. More to come later.
