SAT and FAT were the examples on sanitation planning tools to help decision making process by providing result on situational, technological and financial analysis on FSM. Tha Klong municipality, in Thailand is one of the city that has conducted the study using these two tools.
The focus on this thesis is to study on how these tools were used and implemented in the setting of Tha Klong and how the actual planning process in this city were carried out to see its implication on sanitation planning process. A case study were conducted where FGD and interview were used as the method for data collections, whereas CLUES and Sanitation 21 were further utilized as an approach to analyse the data in order to understand the overall planning process in Tha Klong municipality.
The result implies that FAT and SAT assessment conducted for Tha Klong municipality did have a sufficient result as required in order to prepare for FSM implementation, although it did not materialize in the projects planned as well as policies made in Tha Klong. Furthermore, a recommendation were given to integrate these two tools into the sanitation planning process as well as activities that need to be carried out to improve their sanitation planning process in the future.
