Privatisation of Sanitation and Sewerage Services - Lessons Learnt from the Philippinesby Water Environment Partnership in AsiaPublication This policy brief re-examines the challenges and constraints facing the Philippines, mostly in the Metro Manila region, in domestic wastewater and septage management, including expansion of the sewerage network and wastewater treatment ratio. This brief also provides good lessons learnt for water professionals and policymakers in the water supply and sanitation sector – not only in other cities and municipalities of the Philippines but also in other Southeast Asian countries – on how decentralised approaches as well as privatisation policy have greatly assisted in improved wastewater and septage management in the Philippines. |
