The book encourages amenable authorities to create more efficient and effective management systems and improve their performance. Additionally, it provides the government with a systemic approach to public utilities system transformation and development. Covering key topics such as public hygiene, sustainability, and environmental protection, this premier reference source is ideal for government officials, policymakers, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
