3. Finally, make sure to explain how the specific elements/characteristics/examples of TPA, NPM or reforms you have identified/presented in your paper fit your country/PICTs' context(s) and what are their pros and cons in this/these context(s), from how well they match the culture, structures, and needs to what are the challenges, pitfalls, or issues/obstacles.
