| Abstract | VietNam has become a middle income country and its rapid economic growth has been impressive during the past decades. The GDP has accelerated to 6.3% during the first half of 2015, the fastest first-half-of-the-year growth rate in the past five years. Although growth is not directly attributed to ODA, however it has played an important role in catalyzing foreign direct investment as well as from private sector. Government’s Socioeconomic Development Plan (SEDP) 2016-2020 is being revised, and highlighting development targets in key economic sectors and the importance of ODA resources along with projected increases in the number, size of investments. From a meeting hold recently by National ODA Steering Committee and Six Banks (ADB, AFD, JICA, KEXIM, KfW and WB) on Managing ODA Effectively for Better Results highlighted that the stock of undisbursed ODA is over $19 billion by end 2014, in which ADB undisbursed fund about $5 billion and is expected to increase over by the end of 2015caused by delays during implementation stage. On average, it takes 8 months from loan signing to loan effectiveness; over 12 months to recruit consultants; and 18 months from loan effectiveness to the first loan disbursement. Startup delays can delay projects for up to 2 to 3 years.The purpose of this report is to study an ADB project delays during pre-construction stage in case of Ho Chi Minh water supply project, loan 2754-VIE and analyze delay causation and key successful factors in order to propose recommendation for improvement for subsequent projects under MFF 0054-VIE. |
