Lesson
An uncomplicated program design is a key factor in achieving reform in fragile states. In countries with low public sector capacity, a single-tranche policy-based program, with all policy actions achieved prior to an ADB Board presentation, is an effective means of achieving step-by-step reforms. In the Improved Fiscal and Infrastructure Management Program, the simplicity of design was a feature of the individual policy actions, which were generally self contained and within the capability of the government to implement.

Lesson
Actions that demonstrate the achievement of program policy matrix milestones should indicate what were achieved, rather than the process of how these were accomplished. For example, an endorsement or approval of a framework, manual, procedure, and others is not an adequate indicator to demonstrate that a policy reform was successfully accomplished, particularly in fragile and small island developing states.
