The paper presents the nine country
cases and draws lessons in the concluding section.
Indonesia, which is the only country in this paper that has
retained universal price subsidies to date, is covered
first. Senegal, with repeated attempts to end price
subsidies followed by re-introduction, is described next,
followed by the Dominican Republic and El Salvador, two
countries that have replaced universal price subsidies with
cash transfers. Peru, which has set strict targeting
criteria for conditional cash transfers, and India, the
conditional cash transfer program of which is the largest
program of its kind in the world, follow. Three countries
with deregulated pricing of LPG and no government assistance
today for LPG purchase, Ghana, Brazil, and Mexico, are
discussed last. |
