Quality of Water, Infrastructure and Public Health Concerns Dilapidated lines Municipal water not fit for human consumption

Water Agency: Institutional Matters, Sustainability and Equity Failed organization Tariff and liabilities Inequitable resource distribution

The question of private sector involvement Rationale: Low cost/no cost water is economically inefficient Developing countries are too poor to further subsidize water Cost recovery and pricing are really difficult for these countries Global Practices Mixed responses of success ( 1. Singapore, Phnom Penh and the Netherlands - Public sector utilities 2. Jamshedpur (India) and Manila (The Philippines) – Private sector ) The question of private sector involvement

towards Solutions Institutional Reforms: Autonomy, primacy for WASA Tariff Rationalization towards Solutions

Service Delivery: Focusing on Provision of Clean Drinking Water through WASA water shops especially in low income areas

The Sustainability of Water Resource: Refreshing the aquifer (Ravi River) public engagement

conclusion
