Based on this framework and by using Entropy Method, the paper then selected 10 sample countries, including China, six developed countries, and other three developing countries, and made a comprehensive comparison evaluation for those countries. Finally, by focusing on China´s results of ranking 10 in institution, 6 in enforcement, 5 in performance and 8 in total ranking, the paper gave the explanation and presented improvement suggestions for the future ICT regulation in China.
