Summary:	Many of the world's most controversial private infrastructure projects originated as unsolicited proposals to governments.

A companion Note reviews the methods used by the governments of Chile, the Republic of Korea, the Philippines, and South Africa to transform unsolicited proposals into competitively tendered projects.
