Lesson
Need for the government's continuous capacity enhancement in project preparation. The government should have conducted its own robust due diligence prior to processing new projects, particularly in terms of engineering and safeguards. Further, international financial institutions, including ADB, should continue providing technical support, including institutional and capacity development programs, to enable the executing and implementing agencies to independently prepare projects with sound technical inputs.

Lesson
Need for comprehensive due diligence in safeguards and technical aspects. The cost overrun had two major causes: (i) an insufficient safeguard assessment during appraisal, and (ii) an inaccurate cost estimate. A comprehensive safeguards impact assessment during appraisal could have avoided the later realignment. Detailed analysis of alternative alignments and their associated potential safeguards impacts, both of environmental and social, should have been conducted as well.

Need for adequate resource allocation to preparatory works for new projects. The cost overrun of the civil works component was a primary reason for the cancellation, and was caused by inadequacies in the investment program appraisal with respect to safeguards, engineering design and the cost estimate.
