is that governments in most developed countries, invite tender from private owners to bid for

properties and whoever wins the deal will get the opportunity for new construction. Public works departments make use of these funds to build roads and other utilities. Historial monuments form another category of old property, and they should not be demolished as it bonds the relationship between the past and the present. Artefacts in these places are used by historians and other researchers as part of their job or studies.

However

For instance

provides the opportunity for private owners to showcase their service. To recapitulate, while the old buildings serve as a link between old culture and the present, I would come up with the conclusion that the government's budgets should not be consumed to maintain these facilities. Authorities must assess its usage to the prevailing society and plan for demolishing it or changing it to private ownership.
