Abstract
In the past twenty years, the internet has changed how governments interact with their citizens. However, there are disparities among different groups of countries when it comes to e-government and e-services. The current article aims to examine the current situation of e-services provided by local government units in Thailand. A purposive sampling technique was used, and a sample of 90 municipal websites was analyzed. The findings show that municipalities in Thailand provide a relatively limited e-services on their websites, implying that the implementation of e-government in the country has not much changed since the dawn of information age.
