Instead, ADB and the government should discuss the possibility of either a project loan to support capacity building or of Ministry of Finance earmarking a portion of the program loan to fund the capacity building initiatives of a structured medium-term program through the government budget process. Given its importance, this can be considered as a policy action in the policy matrix. [Main text, para. 43(ix)]
