So what would be an example of a GONGO? It's an excellent oxymoron anyway.
I've removed the disambiguation template for now, until another definition of gongo appears.--BobBobtheBob 21:19, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why to "expand" if Wikipedia has so tough censorship? Any added text that is truth but “politically incorrect” according to Wikipedia censors is disappearing in seconds. My suggestion to Wikipedia is to clearly state its censorship rules at the start page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.116.176.110 (talkcontribs)

Sources

The economist article does not refer to GONGOs or NGOs anywhere. Are there any reliable sources to substantiate the name or acronym? or is this just another non notable neologism awaiting deletion? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ohconfucius (talkcontribs) 05:54, 8 December 2006 (UTC). There are reliable sources such as the book,[reply]

I believe it is not "Government Operated" but "Government Organized" And it doesn't operate exactly as said. GONGOs can be used to attract foreign aid to the government's projects, mitigate governmental (or NGO) mistrust in providing aid to the communities served, and it can be used to keep some governmental limits (ie; clearances, not culturally radical projects) to the aid present in the country.

Ambiguation

Just in short. GonGo can also refer to Governance-on-the-Go: Empowering people through Web 3.0—Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.198.39.176 (talk) 12:09, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected GONGO

Needs further elaboration. --Taterian (talk) 05:49, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
