A WATER SECTOR PROJECT MIGHT NEED GOVERNMENT SUPPORT TO MAKE IT AFFORD AND BANKABLE. . LACK OF FEASIBILITY: NOT WELL STRUCTURED PPP PROJECTS; AND FREQUENT AMENDMENTS OF CONCESSION AGREEMENTS MARKET SOUND: TESTING OF THE MARKET BEFORE ENTERING INTO PROCUREMENT PROCESS TO AVOID NO RESPONSE AT EXPRESSION OF INTEREST AND REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL STAGE.
