The description of the partners includes the functionalities and information services offered by each of the collaborative icon together with brief concept of implementation mechanism. As the expected outcome, the citizens would get ample information based on their needs. The discussion incorporates the justification of why three partners have been chosen for collaboration in this study. Finally, future implications indicate the direction of the design and successful implementation of this study.
