By the late 1990s privatization was losing much of its earlier momentum, yet concerns about infrastructure remained in many countries. It was at this time that PPPs began to emerge significantly as a means of obtaining private sector capital and management expertise for infrastructure investment, both to carry on where privatization had left off and as an alternative where there had been obstacles to privatization. [MF, 'Public-Private Partnerships', 2004, p 4].
Reason R:
The government has had an active policy in the last 25 years of building a positive economic climate for the health care industry. Among these measures are lower direct taxes; higher depreciation in medical equipment; Income tax exemptions for 5 years for rural hospitals; custom duty exemptions for imported equipment that are lifesaving; Income tax exemption for Health Insurance; and active engagement through publicly financed health insurance which now covers almost 27 percent of the population.
