Abstract

The goal in this research paper is to analyze the organization model of the water related infrastructure in Jakarta in order to identify possible weaknesses in the efficiency. For the analysis, we carry out a literature review. The study is making the conclusion that the public private partnership is already the best approach in Jakarta’s water supply. However, a stronger regulator than the Jakarta Water Supply Regulatory Body needs to appear to guarantee enough incentives for the private water companies to operate the infrastructure site but also to prevent market failure. In general, the local authorities need to better communicate to avoid slow decision-making and the lack of initiatives.
