Chapter Chapter 1 in Infrastructure Development and Public–Private Partnership, 2022, pp 1-8 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter aims to develop the general idea of the book by presenting the background of the study, research objectives, research questions, and significance of the book. It discusses the importance of infrastructure development as well as Public–Private Partnership (PPP) based on challenges of infrastructure finance gap faced by developing countries. The objective of this book is to attempt to analyze PPP infrastructure development in developing countries by focusing on the extreme policy changes related to the roles of the public and private sectors in infrastructure development in the Philippines. While there is no precedent and substantial study on the changes of infrastructure governance in the Philippines, this book assesses policy changes in infrastructure development in the Philippines and identifies several factors behind the changes related to infrastructure governance in the Philippines, especially the drastic shift during the Aquino III and Duterte administrations, as academic contributions. Furthermore, the findings of the book, including the desirable role of public finance and PPP in developing infrastructure in developing countries, could improve infrastructure governance, such as choice of financing mode, design and implementation of the PPP project, in other developing countries as an operable contribution to policy making.
