The universities in Malaysia have made a good plan in their education layout to achieve the top educational rank. The goal is to make the Malaysian education in centre of the global map by enhancing the academic excellence; its one of 2020 plan in Malaysia that has been made by Mahathir Mohammad in 1991. That plan focuses on finance and banking, biotechnology, information and communication technology, information technology, multimedia content development, advanced and manufacturing. Recently in Malaysia there are more than 50 universities. All the public university has its own e-government application to give the staff online connection and to provide best service to people. But there is no sharing with other public universities. Therefore if there is plan will attain success in only one university, it wont be shared with others. In Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) they use APEX (Accelerated Program for Excellence) that has been used in 2008. This idea was focused only on USM in Malaysia, because there is no sharing for knowledge between Malaysian universities. This paper creates a framework that uses data warehouse techniques such as metadata common warehouse to support the universities e-government. As such it increases sharing information among the universitys department itself and with other universities departments and gives better understanding which can reduce delay and strengthen the efficiency of sharing the information for government.
