This document contains: a list of external loans signed in 1978; a list of projects for 1979 originallyincluded in, but subsequentlydeleted from, the 1977-79 Project List (World Bank Report Number 1591-CO); a list of projects for which the Colombian Governmentwill seek external financing in the years 1979-82 (in the form of summary tables and in detailed project- by-project descriptions);and a list of technical assistanceprojects which refer either to the preparationor support of investmentsincluded in the Project List. 2. Both the investment and technical assistance projects presented here were identified and elaboratedby the Colombian Government, and support its developmentpriorities. While the Government hopes to begin executing all of these projects during the 1979-1982 period, it is quite likely that some scheduleswill change as a result of either cancellationor postponement of projects. Past experience shows that such changes may be substantial, although it is not possible to identify which project shcedules might change. 3. The compositionof the List of investment projects and the related List of technicalassistance projects reflects the emphasis which the Colombian Government has accorded to infrastructuredevelopment, particularly electric power and transportation,to social developmentand to the growth of agricul- tural, industrialand mining production., 4. The electric power sector accounts for some US$2.2 billion (38%) out of a total of US$5.9 billion of external project financing included in the List. Taking account of the projects already being executed and assuming that these and others included in the present List were executied on schedule, eleven new generationprojects would be completedand work on another twelve would be started in the period 1979-82. Transmissionand rural electrification would also receive major impetus. 5. Transport infrastructureranks second to electric power in terms of pro- posed committmentsfor external financing; the List contains 24 transportation projects with total external financing requirementsof nearly US$1.2 billion over four years, 20% of the total. Basic objectiveswould be to promote physical integrationbetween regions and markets and to facilitate communications with neighbouringcountries. The several highway projects include some new roads (such as that through the Darien Gap), a rehabilitationprogram for paved roads, a paving program for high density routes and an extensive research program. The railway system would benefit from new investments,navigation on the Magdalena River would be improved, as would the major ports, and urban transportationwould be developed in Bogota and Medellin. The List also includes telecommunicationprojects totaling US$280 million in external financing. - ii - 6. While such projects are seen by the Government as essential in order to provide the basic infrastructureframework for acceleratedeconomic growth, others are designed to raise productivityand to bring immediate improvementsin the living conditions of both rural and urban populations. Prominant among these are the projects to increase agriculturalproductivity and raise rural incomes (23 projects, US$671 million in external financing); those to raise industrial and mining output (11 projects, US$953 million in external financing);those to improve water supply and sanitation facilities (10 projects, US$285 million in external financing);those to develop urban areas (five projects, US$138 million in external financing); and projects in education,nutrition and health (seven projects, US$134 million in external financing). 7.
