The purpose of this research is to assess the transparency of Bangladesh's electronic government (e-government) systems. Using 23 transparency categories extracted from the Website Attribute Evaluation System (WAES) agenda, web scraping and the content analysis technique were utilized to appraise the e-government systems' transparency level. The information collected from the WAES was analyzed utilizing the frequency and percentage in accordance with the numerous transparency categories. This study shows that an overall transparency level of 66.11% was indicated by the e-government systems’ publication of 15.21 of the 23 WAES transparency disclosure components. The Malaysia Government Portals and Website Assessment (MGPWA) interprets the score as suggesting a high degree of transparency, with an overall rating of four stars. The results of the current study provide encouraging evidence that the administration is making progress, especially in its attempts to increase government transparency and lower the degree of illicit activity. This research is one of the few that aims at addressing a basic problem of transparency in the e-government systems, which is closely linked to the prevalence of misconduct.
