In Europe and the United States, the Open Government Initiative has been implemented by the three principles of transparency, citizen participation and collaboration between government and citizens. However, in Japan, only transparency, i.e.; Government data opened to the private sector (open data) has established at several central and local Governments.In the United States, Open 311, which is the Internet communication tool for issues about public space and services, becomes popular as collaboration, instead by the non-emergency phone call 311 systems. Open 311 became possible that citizens can solve themselves by developing and providing applications to utilze these data.In this paper, I examine the possibility of collaboration in Japan by analyzing the experiment in Chiba and Osaka City.
