Water in Asian Cities Utilities' Performance and Civil Society Views
Asian Development Bank | January 2004
Abstract
This book is about the performance of water supply and sanitation utilities in 18 Asian cities and what civil society sees as its role in improving water services in the cities. The surveys, consultations, analyses, and commentaries that come together in the book are the results of a Study on Water in Asian Cities funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) under a regional technical assistance on Promoting Effective Water Management Policies and Practices. This work continues a tradition of ADB support for water services in cities of Asia and the Pacific, following on from Water Utilities Data Books published by ADB in 1993 and 1997.
