Yumiko Tamura, ADB Principle Country Specialist, said the CPS will focus on economic development in Vietnam and its priority actions to ensure the highest efficiency in deploying human resources.
The ADB will help to improve public management capacity with a particular focus on reforming state owned enterprises, as well as the educational, financial and infrastructural sectors.
Leaders from central and Central Highland provinces proposed the ADB further support the regions’ socio-economic development and sustainable poverty reduction by constructing transport infrastructure, providing electricity and water for rural areas, treating waste for economic zones and protecting the environment for both rural and urban areas.
They asked the ADB to concentrate on improving the quality of management staff for some projects and investing to build new rural areas in remote regions.
The ADB committed to granting capital resources to help Vietnam achieve the set target of becoming an industrialized country by 2020 and address the challenges facing a middle income country, towards stable and sustainable development.
