Abstract :
The decisions on infrastructure are highly relevant to public interests and the allocation of national resources. The review of projects requires consideration of multiple factors. They are characterized with multiple criteria and uncertainties of the decision environment. Therefore, this paper has come up with a three-stage decision model that combines multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) and fuzzy set theory to properly and thoroughly tackle this decision issue.
