Delivering Piped Water on a Small Scale: Results of ADB's Water Supply Service Market Survey in Manila
Asian Development Bank | September 2007
Abstract
Asia’s slum communities need water today—not from deep wells or community standpipes, from tankers, or plastic bottles. They need safe and affordable water conveniently available from taps inside their houses. But household connections from water utilities take ages, if not completely impossible. In the meantime, households unserved by the water utility obviously get their water from somewhere. Where? How much are they paying for it? Are they getting safe water?
