| description |
There is neither sufficient historical
perspective nor similarities by which to compare the
Ghanaian and Burkinabe experiences. Burkina Faso's
reforms are more structured and planned, while Ghana's
more complex political and economic history have had greater
influence on road sector reforms than any attempt at advance
planning. Yet many African countries find themselves in
situations somewhere between those of Ghana and Burkina
Faso. Their choice of path towards reform depends largely on
their condition of the roads, the state of their public
road-management institutions, the capacity of their private
sector, the government's own policies and policy
objectives, and the financial resources available to them
from their budget and from donors. |
