Minh City (HCMC) is one of the largest city and an important economic ng center in Viet Nam With the population of 7.8 million people and density of 3,721 hi ep people per kilometer square (Wikipedia, 2011), the development of infrastructure cannot catch up with the rapid urbanization rate of HCMC The inconsistency in the w n urban development in HCMC caused various problems, one of which is the lo ad exceedance in capacity of the urban sewer and drainage system, one of the causes for ju y th major urban flooding (Hoc, 2008) Moreover, the instability of the weather also further aggravates the flooding issue through the heavy rainfall and high rainfall level yi pl In the effort to address the flooding circumstance, the Government has approved two al n ua major plans The first one is the plan of urban drainage improvement and sewer va development of HCMC, which was approved by Decision 752 in 2002 The second n is the MARD1 construction plan, which was approved by Decision 1547 in 2008 fu ll Both projects have the same goal to help alleviate the flooding in HCMC, but they oi m solve in different approaches While the former focuses on rehabilitating and nh at developing the inner urban drainage system, the latter seeks to build large scale z hydraulic constructs around the city However, due to the diversity in causes of z ht vb flooding in HCMC, in order to completely solve the problem, the combination of both k jm projects is required gm Research problem and objectives om l.c In summary, to deal with the urban flooding issue, not to mention other smaller projects, there are two main projects have been approved and in the process of a Lu implementing, which are urban drainage improvement and sewer development of n y te re which may delay the project until 2025 Although a specific number of expected n project 1547 is facing difficulties in appealing investment and cost underestimating, va HCMC (project 752) and hydraulic construction plan (project 1547) However, MARD stands for Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development outcomes of the two projects were not given, CBA of these projects expected to relieve all the tangible damage caused by flood in 50 years, which means no heavy t to flooding will be occurring in the next 50 years (Steering Centre for Urban Flood ng hi Control Program, 2013) ep Are all the aforementioned measures effective or not? Inspection of the all the w projects upon completion will be required to answer the question in the future n lo Although a CBA analysis for project 1547 has already been conducted However, the ad estimating of the benefit of the project in the CBA is based on the ‘flood risk y th ju approach’ which did not consider the demand and willingness to pay (WTP) of the yi inhabitants in HCMC In addition, the results of the study may serve as a guide for pl ua al making decisions involving potential urban flooding project implementation and fee collection in HCMC as well as in other areas Furthermore, potential projects n n va involving flood control in HCMC may also require WTP as an important indicator to ll fu estimate the benefit of the project Therefore, this study intents to: oi m  Evaluate inhabitants’ level of awareness about flood risks in HCMC at nh  Determine the aggregate WTP for a hypothetical anti-flooding project z  Find out the factors governing the WTP of HCMC inhabitants z vb In order to answer these questions, Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) will be ht jm applied in conjunction with the direct interview survey instrument to measure the k willingness to pay for the elimination of urban flooding in HCMC The result in the gm l.c study may be used in policy making for deciding whether or not a project would be inspecting the effectiveness of the project 1547 and 752 om feasible to be conducted in the future It may be also helpful for the process of n a Lu n va y te re CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW t to Benefits and costs of a public good or an environmental good are difficult to ng determine since public goods or environmental goods usually not have a price hi ep Moreover, the costs and benefits are mostly dependent on individuals’ preferences Given a public good is provided, the individual’s benefit can be measured by w n measuring how much that individual is willing to give up to obtain that public good lo ad On the contrary, the individual’s cost when a public good is lost is measured by the ju y th value of something else that individual would accept to compensate for the loss yi In terms of welfare, money is usually used as a standard measure In that case, the pl measure of benefit is the willingness to pay (WTP) to obtain the benefit or willingness al n ua to accept (WTA) to compensate for the lost The measure of cost is WTP to avoid the n va cost and WTA to tolerate the same ll fu Many techniques have been invented with the purpose of estimating the WTP and oi m WTA for the provision or decrease in public goods Bateman et al (2002) classified at nh techniques into revealed preference techniques (RP) and stated preference techniques (SP) Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) and Choice Modelling (CM) are z z commonly used SP techniques by researchers to estimate WTP and WTA While CM vb ht involves in inferring a value from the change in attribute levels of a public good, jm CVM directly collects individuals’ stated WTP by eliciting a scenario for k gm respondents This chapter will present some basic concepts of economic valuation, n a Lu 2.1 Willingness to pay and willingness to accept om Valuation Method and several CVM empirical applications l.c which are WTP, WTA, Total Economic Value (TEV), Utility Theory, the Contingent y with lower income Field (1997) and Pearce (1992) also pointed out that willingness te re any people with higher income will value goods or services more highly than that n by an individual for a good or service WTP is constrained by ability to pay so that va Pearce (1997) defined willingness to pay is the monetary valuation that was placed to accept is not constrained by the individual’s income, as is willingness to pay Thus, when people are asked willingness to accept questions, their answers are usually t to higher than their willingness to pay for the same item ng hi ep According to Bateman et al (2002), the concept of WTP and WTA can be graphically illustrated using indifferent curve The vertical axis represents the expenditure in w money unit of an individual on the private good (y) The horizontal axis represents n lo the quantity of a public good (x) The indifferent curve I and I’ represent two linked ad combinations which have the same level of utility of two distinct individuals, with I y th ju has a lower level of utility than I’ yi pl n ua al n va ll fu oi m at nh z z ht vb k jm om l.c gm Figure Measure of change in human welfare Source: Bateman et al., 2002 n a Lu y consumption point is at A With the increase in the quantity of public good, the te re is an increase in the quantity of public goods from x0 to x1 and the individual’s initial n measured using four measures, two of which are WTP and WTA First, suppose there va If there is a change in the quantity of a public good, the value of the change can be individual can enjoy x1 of the public good, but the private consumption is reduced by BC, in other words, the new consumption point is now C The amount BC is defined t to as the WTP for the increase in the public good (or the compensating variation for the ng hi increase in the public good) ep Second, if the initial consumption of the individual is at B and there is a decrease in w quantity of public goods from x1 to x0, but the individual enjoys a higher level of n lo private consumption, y1, moving the consumption point from B to D The amount ad DA is the amount of private consumption needs to be compensated for the loss in the y th ju public good, specifically in this case, the WTA for the reduction in the public good yi is DA (or the compensating variation for the reduction in the public good) pl al ua The third and the fourth measure are equivalent variation for the increase in the public n good (equivalent gain) and equivalent variation for the decrease in public good va n (equivalent loss) Theoretically, they are equal to WTA and WTP, respectively, in fu ll value, but are distinct concepts elicited by different types of questions Equivalent m oi variations are obtained by asking ‘how much would be good/bad as gaining/losing at nh public good X’ instead of ‘how much would pay/compensate for the gain/loss public z good X’ z ht vb In theory, WTP and WTA have to be equal or only some insignificant divergence is jm allowed, but major differences between WTP and WTA have been illustrated by k many studies Brown (2000) pointed out the difference between WTP and WTA still gm l.c exists if the following conditions are not met: (i) no income effect; (ii) no transaction cost; (iii) perfect information about goods and prices; (iv) a market bring back a set om of truthful references In practice, the gap between WTP and WTA always exists a Lu because it is unrealistic to meet all the conditions in a single study case Nas (1996), n y te re equality between WTP and WTA is only achieved in the case of perfect substituted n WTA originates from the substitution between private and public good, so the va Hanley (1997), and Hanemann (1984) stated that the divergence between WTP and Landry, C., & List, J (2007) Using ex ante approaches to obtain
