Songhua River Basin Water Pollution Control and Management Project

Project coordination. The large scale and scope made project design and implementation challenging. Implementation succeeded because key stakeholders were involved in achieving the project goals, from the design stage through implementation. ADB missions served as catalysts to develop strong coordination and commitment between the two provinces and among the project counties and cities. Finally, the very good cooperation between agencies - and especially between provincial development reform commissions and finance bureaus - was essential for this type of project.
