Abstract

This chapter uses SWOT analysis to discuss the results presented in Chaps. 810. The discussion in this chapter reinforces what the findings from the earlier chapters suggest, and how the research results relate to the literature review. The implications and strategies for LCCFs are also included. This chapter ends with a validation of the strategies proposed.
