Regional Development Project, Phase II - Environmental Infrastructure and Management

The government and the Ministry of Energy and Environment (MEE) had implemented the Regional Development Project prior to this follow-up project. The government asked that project implementation support be provided to help implement Regional Development Project, Phase II - Environmental Infrastructure and Management. Although MEE was not fully conversant with ADB procedures at first, timely support from ADB and willingness of the MEE staff to adopt these practices helped implement the project. The Ministry of Finance and Treasury and the government fully supported the project.
