Abstract

Open Government Data (OGD) practice for researchers are intriguing to analyze as a decade has passed and showed many differences in application from each country. This difference may occur due to diversity in culture of openness, level of openness, and the level of trust or confidence of the country in opening data. Researchers presume that there is linearity in both, in meaning if the practice of government in the real world goes well then so is in cyberspace. Researchers also assume that OGD practices in developing countries in terms of success and failure are not equal to developed countries. It is interesting for researches to study the practice of OGD member of Association of Southeast Asian Nations that is developing countries with culture of openness, level of openness, and the level of trust or confidence of the country that is similar due to its homogeneity to ASEAN nations. This paper gives out description and study of the reality of OGD practices from ASEAN countries. Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) through literature review is done to see the ratio of OGD practices among developing countries especially ASEAN countries.
