The
State Bank of Việt Nam (SBV) was assigned to work with the Office of
Government (OOG), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA), the Ministry
of Planning and Investment (MoPI), the Ministry of Finance (MoF) and
other relevant ministries and agencies and the WB to map out a detailed
organization plan.
The
Government instructed the SBV to work with ministries, agencies and
localities to host the conference and sidelines forums and establish an
assessment group.
Headed
by a Deputy Governor of the SBV, the assessment group will comprised
representatives from the MoFA, MoPI, MoF, the OOG, and relevant agencies
to generally evaluate the cooperation between Việt Nam and the WB and
propose orientations in the coming time.
The
SBV, in collaboration with the Ministry of Transport and the MoPI, will
hold different seminars to seek proper measures to raise the efficiency
of public-private-partnership projects.
The
Government chief also asked the MoPI, in collaboration with the SBV,
MoF and relevant ministries, to evaluate the management and spending of
WB-financed aid.
It
is reported that by late February 2010, the WB has financed 93 projects
and programs worth of around US $10.4 billion. Over US $6.7 billion
(65% of registered capital) has been disbursed.
The
WB chiefly pours assistance in such fields as agriculture, irrigation,
urban and rural infrastructure construction, transportation, health
care, education, finance and banking./.
