Abstract

ABSTRACT There are various factors in Dili’s water system responsible for the water scarcity problem in the city. Hence, there is a need for strategic plans which could be used as guidelines in improving its water system. The objective of this study was to formulate a strategic plan for water resource management in Dili. The process commenced with the identification of external and internal factors. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to weight the score at the input stage. The alternative strategies were formulated with the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) matrix. Furthermore, the Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM) was used to select the priority strategy at the decision stage. Based on the results, a total of 13 internal and 13 external factors were identified, while five alternative strategies formulated. Moreover, the selected strategy as the priority for implementation has the capacity of developing the water resource management infrastructure in Dili, as well as improving the water supply system performance in meeting the urban water demand.

东帝汶帝力市城市用水的水资源管理战略

摘要帝力的供水系统存在多种因素，造成了该市的缺水问题。因此，有必要制定战略计划，作为改善供水系统的指导方针。这项研究的目的是为帝力的水资源管理制定一项战略计划。这一过程从确定外部和内部因素开始。采用层次分析法（AHP）对输入阶段的得分进行加权。备选战略是根据优势、劣势、机会和威胁（SWOT）矩阵制定的。此外，定量战略规划矩阵（QSPM）用于在决策阶段选择优先战略。根据研究结果，共确定了13个内部因素和13个外部因素，并制定了5个替代策略。此外，作为优先执行的选定战略有能力发展帝力的水资源管理基础设施，并改善供水系统的性能，以满足城市用水需求。

期刊介绍： The Australasian Journal of Water Resources ( AJWR) is a multi-disciplinary regional journal dedicated to scholarship, professional practice and discussion on water resources planning, management and policy. Its primary geographic focus is on Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. Papers from outside this region will also be welcomed if they contribute to an understanding of water resources issues in the region. Such contributions could be due to innovations applicable to the Australasian water community, or where clear linkages between studies in other parts of the world are linked to important issues or water planning, management, development and policy challenges in Australasia. These could include papers on global issues where Australasian impacts are clearly identified.
