7 1 I. CONSISTENCY OF BUSINESS PLAN WITH COUNTRY PARTNERSHIP STRATEGY 1. Recent economic and social developments. Cambodia has achieved sustained high growth, averaging 7.9% from 2000 to Economic growth in 2015 remained robust at 7%, with industry, particularly garment and footwear manufacturing and construction, and services contributing strongly. However, the growth model of attracting foreign direct investment to take advantage of inexpensive, low-skilled, and abundant labor may not be viable much longer. Sustained growth and the generation of good jobs to raise income levels depends on (i) diversifying the economy with new industries that require enhanced competitiveness across sectors through investments in physical infrastructure and human capital, (ii) improving the overall business environment, (iii) developing the financial sector, and (iv) improving public service delivery. The economy remains vulnerable to exogenous shocks and natural disasters. 2. Country partnership strategy. The country operations business plan (COBP), is guided by priorities reflected in the Rectangular Strategy Phase III; 1 the National Development Plan, ; 2 and the Industrial Development Policy, The country program for emphasizes a programmatic approach under each of the three pillars of the country partnership strategy, of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for Cambodia, 4 and seeks to ensure integration and synergies between the pillars through individual projects and programs. ADB will increasingly support the transfer of advanced technology through infrastructure and human capital investments in its operations. ADB will continue to set specific targets for gender mainstreaming for most projects and programs, and support strengthening the work of gender mainstreaming action groups in line ministries under the guidance of the Ministry of Women Affairs. The country assistance results areas are in Appendix 1. The indicative assistance pipeline for is in Appendix 2 and the program for 2016 in Appendix 3. This COBP includes a prioritized list of knowledge publications (Appendix 4). 3. Portfolio performance. As of July 2016, the ongoing portfolio comprised 64 loans and grants implemented through 32 different projects, with a total commitment value of $1.249billion. Transport (36%), agriculture, natural resources, and rural development (34%), water and urban infrastructure (14%), education (8%), and energy (5%) are the major sectors. Portfolio performance has improved during Key challenges for portfolio performance include delays in project implementation startups, the limited capacity of executing agencies, compliance with loan covenants, and the depreciation of the special drawing rights against the United States dollar. To improve portfolio quality, ADB will continue to (i) delegate projects to ADB s Cambodia Resident Mission to improve project administration through closer and more intensive cooperation with clients, (ii) improve project readiness and the application of advance actions before project startup, and (iii) strengthen fiduciary safeguards and financial management. Through targeted technical assistance, ADB is assisting government line ministries and agencies in institutional and capacity development for projects and programs, particularly in procurement and financial management. 1 Rectangular Strategy for Growth, Employment, Equity, and Efficiency Phase III of the Royal Government of Cambodia of the Fifth Legislature of the National Assembly, Royal Government of Cambodia, Phnom Penh, National Strategic Development Plan , Royal Government of Cambodia, Phnom Penh, Cambodia Industrial Development Policy : Market Orientation and Enabling Environment for Industrial Development, Royal Government of Cambodia, Phnom Penh, The three pillars are deepened rural-urban-regional links, targeted human and social development, and enhanced public sector management.
