I. BASIC FACTS AND FEATURES

A. Overview

1. The 2009 annual report of the Japan Special Fund (JSF), funded by the Government of Japan, is the 13th prepared by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) since the fund’s inception in 1988. It describes JSF operations in 2009, provides background and details on implementation, and highlights the fund’s achievements during the year and over its history. The report reflects the JSF's commitment to promoting regional cooperation and capacity development, as shown when it provided $2 million in technical assistance (TA) for trade finance capacity development.1

B. Purpose

2. The JSF supports ADB’s TA program with untied grants that ADB administers. It helps ADB developing member countries (Appendix 1) restructure their economies in response to the changing global environment, broaden their opportunities for new investment, and prepare loan projects. The JSF places particular emphasis on industrialization, natural resource development, human resource development, and technology transfer. It also supports ADB's efforts to promote regional cooperation and integration and capacity development.

C. Types of Technical Assistance

3. The JSF is administered by a small team under a funds coordinator in ADB’s Office of Cofinancing Operations, which also oversees other trust funds provided by the Government of Japan.

4. In 2009, the JSF started to use redefined types of TA to reflect the outcomes of different TA products. The JSF supports the four main TA types defined as (i) project preparatory TA (PPTA), (ii) capacity development TA (CDTA), (iii) policy and advisory TA (PATA), and (iv) research and development TA (RDTA). The table shows the relationship between TA objectives and the current and previous types of TA.

II. JAPAN SPECIAL FUND OPERATIONS IN 2009

A. Operational Highlights

5. ADB technical assistance approvals for Japan Special Fund financing. In 2009, ADB approved 42 JSF-funded TA projects (Appendix 2) totaling $41.6 million and representing 16% of the total amount of TA that ADB approved during the year. Notable among them was the regional TA for trade finance capacity development, which was one of the five TA projects that received $2 million each in grant funding from the Government of Japan through the JSF.

In 2009, ADB approved 42 JSF-funded technical assistance projects totaling $41.6 million

6. Trade Finance Facilitation Program. The Trade Finance Facilitation Program (TFFP) was set up in 2004 and expanded to a $1 billion program in March 2009 after ADB perceived a growing and urgent need to help address the lack of finance that was holding back trade, particularly in developing economies. Under the program, the AAA-rated ADB provides loans and guarantees through, and in conjunction with, local and international banks to back trade transactions.

7. In addition to providing finance, the TFFP links the banks into global trading and banking networks. This builds relationships and spurs knowledge sharing that will help the banks and their clients in the longer term.

8. In 2009, ADB has signed TFFP agreements with banks in Bangladesh, Indonesia, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Viet Nam. It expects to continue to expand the geographic scope of the program to Central Asia and elsewhere in 2010.

9. Without JSF support, the TFFP would not have been able to deliver substantial results in 2009 and at the height of the financial crisis. The JSF was critical to the TFFP's expansion, as it provided $2 million in TA grants. In 2009, the TFFP supported (i) $1.9 billion in trade, with the bulk of support going to support trade in Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan, and Viet Nam; (ii) 263 small and medium-sized enterprises; (iii) intraregional trade, as over 55% of the portfolio supported trade between companies in Asia; and (iv) trade between ADB developing member countries, representing 47% of the portfolio. One transaction in particular supported the export from Japan of medical equipment to Nepal. With JSF support, the TFFP was able to deliver substantial and measurable development impact in some of Asia's most challenging markets.

11. Rural development in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh. ADB and the Government of Japan are providing financial support to lay the groundwork for a project that will strengthen water resources management and aid rural development in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh. The JSF will provide a PPTA grant of $900,000,2 and the Multi-Donor Trust Fund of the Water Financing Partnership Facility $265,000, totaling $1.165 million.

implementing, and operating rural infrastructure. Support will also be given to strengthen and build capacity in the Ministry of Chittagong Hill Tracts Affairs, Chittagong Hill Tracts Regional Council, and three hill district councils.

13. The assistance will pave the way for the Second Chittagong Hill Tracts Rural Development Project, which ADB is expected to support. The first phase of the project, carried out with ADB assistance from 2003 to 2009, helped improve rural roads and other basic physical infrastructure.

14. Second Crop Diversification Project in Bangladesh. The TA was approved on 29 January 2009 for $500,000 financed by the JSF.3 The Government of Bangladesh signed the TA letter on 18 May 2009. The TA has successfully helped the government prepare the proposed Second Crop Diversification Project, to be financed by a loan of $40 million from ADB Special Fund resources. The project will increase rural income in 27 districts in southwest and northwest Bangladesh through improved efficiency and value addition through high-value crop production. The direct beneficiaries will be marginal, small, and medium-sized farmers. Landless people will also benefit through job generation. The regional focus of the project helps address the growing east–west divide in the incidence of poverty and economic development in Bangladesh. The project is market orientated and demand driven. Through increased high-value crop production, greater diversification of sources of income, and higher net returns for farmers, the project will contribute to economic growth and food security as well as create employment for landless people and women. Resilient crop varieties, inter-cropping practices, and other technology will be tested and disseminated to help farmers adapt to climate change.

15. Resilience to climate change in Bhutan. Landlocked, mountainous Bhutan receives support from ADB and Japan to counter the harmful impacts of climate change on its rivers, the lifeblood of the economy. The JSF is providing a $700,000 TA grant for building capacity in Bhutan’s National Environment Commission (NEC).4 The NEC is the designated national authority for climate change issues and handles projects that are eligible for carbon credits under the Kyoto Protocol. However, it currently lacks staff or other capacity for developing mitigation and adaptation measures for climate change.

16. “The TA will help create functioning and sustainable climate change mitigation and adaptation systems for combined energy and water resources in the country,” said Kaoru Ogino, senior energy specialist in ADB’s South Asia Department.

17. It will boost the ability of NEC to adequately assess and promote hydropower and other renewable energy projects potentially eligible under the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol for carbon trading. In addition, it will boost NEC’s ability to expand Bhutan’s access to financing for climate change mitigation and adaptation projects.

18. Improved finance sector in Cambodia. ADB will provide TA to help Cambodia implement its finance sector reform program.5 The Ministry of Economy and Finance, Ministry of Commerce, and National Bank of Cambodia will work together to develop a market-oriented financial system to enhance resource mobilization and support sustainable economic growth. The TA is estimated to cost $1.4 million, of which US$750,000 will be financed by the JSF. Another $500,000 will be financed as a grant by the Government of Luxembourg and administered by ADB.

19. The Government of Cambodia will work on 13 key areas, including strengthening bank supervision and surveillance, improving the legal and regulatory framework, assisting the newly established national arbitration council, and passing the commercial contract law. The assistance will help upgrade the national payment system and establish a credit information bureau in the National Bank of Cambodia.

20. "This TA represents ADB's continuous commitment to helping Cambodia implement further reforms in the financial sector to create a sound and reliable system that will create confidence among investors and further attract foreign direct investments," said Putu Kamayana, ADB country director for Cambodia. "ADB greatly values the collaboration and contributions from the Governments of Japan and Luxembourg in supporting these important reforms."

21. Northern Rural Infrastructure Development Project in Lao PDR. The TA will facilitate the development of an investment program in the northern of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (PDR) where poverty rates remain high among mostly indigenous communities.6 The proposed project, to be prepared with funding approved under this TA, will provide opportunities for enhanced productivity and improved market accessibility to indigenous and rural communities in northern Lao PDR. This is likely to facilitate cross-border trade opportunities and improved social services for the rural poor as a result of greater and more reliable connectivity.

22. Sustainable Natural Resource Management and Productivity Enhancement Project in Lao PDR. The TA facilitates the implementation of the associated grant project cofinanced by ADB and the International Fund for Agricultural Development in five provinces of southern Lao PDR.7 This TA is likely to be instrumental in enhancing the capacity of the rural communities to sustainably manage their natural resource endowments. Since 2002, large

investments in commodities have in some instances damaged social and environmental conditions in the region. Local government entities and rural communities must therefore be enabled to effectively deal with these emerging challenges. Through timely support facilitated by the TA, a series of interventions are being planned to create awareness among communities and provide training and planning tools for building the capacity of local institutions in such areas as applying geographic information systems, environmental screening, and social safeguards.

B. Voices from Various Regions

23. To raise public awareness regarding the JSF, the Government of Japan encourages ADB to hold signing and launching ceremonies, press briefings, and other events attended by staff of the Japanese Embassy. Such activities would support efforts by the Office of Cofinancing Operations to heighten the fund’s visibility and thereby sustain continued development assistance from the Government of Japan.

12 JAPAN SPECIAL FUND ANNUAL REPORT 2009

24. The JSF team has been successful in raising the fund’s profile through these efforts and making it better known. It requests regional departments to share testimonials, articles, and their own success stories. Recipient developing member countries have expressed their deep appreciation for support from the JSF and the Government of Japan on several occasions, as shown below.

25. Sustainable health financing scheme. In April 2007, the Government of Palau requested TA to help develop a viable health insurance scheme. Underlying Palau’s request was concern about the sustainability of health-care financing and the limited cost recovery of hospital operations. The request was consistent with the country strategy and program update for Palau, 2007–2009, which identified policy advice and TA to create a more sustainable economy as the basic thrust of ADB’s medium-term assistance to the country.

26. The impact of the TA will be to make public expenditure on health-care services financially sustainable.8 The expected outcome is to make the government’s National Healthcare Coverage and Savings Act operational. Outputs will be (i) policy-makers better informed on evidence to steer the implementation of approved legislation on the National Health Savings Plan and (ii) an evidence-based and locally appropriate sustainable health- financing plan developed for policy consideration.

27. The TA will model a sustainable health-financing plan that is appropriate to Palau's economic, cultural, demographic, and epidemiological context. It will review the governance, institutional, and long-term needs of the health sector to understand Palau's health-financing opportunities and challenges with a view to arriving at practical solutions.

28. Two health-financing laws are being considered by Congress: (i) The National Health Care Act would create medical savings accounts for the working population to finance routine health-care expenditures. (ii) The Palau Health Insurance Act would establish a

mandatory social health insurance scheme with nearly universal coverage of catastrophic health care costs. "We’re almost there, but whether or not it is signed into law, we wouldn’t have gotten to this point if it weren’t for the generosity of the Government of Japan, specifically the Japan Special Fund,” said Greg Ngirmang, Palau Social Security administrator. “We also would like to thank ADB for finding the experts and facilitating this very highly technical work. This legislation is as big as the Palau Social Security Act, which now distributes more than $8 million per year to about 2,500 benefit recipients in Palau, and it became possible due to the funds provided by the Government of Japan. And again, we are very thankful,"

29. Twinning program. Expert and recipient water utilities in the twinning program of the Water Operators’ Partnerships (WOPs) Program reported on their achievements at the first Twinning Regional Forum, held from 10 to 13 February 2009 at the Korea Water Academy in Daejeon, Republic of Korea. The forum gathered officials from 16 water utilities participating in the twinning program. The forum, organized by ADB and hosted by the Korea Water Academy, aimed to (i) understand the twinning progress, (ii) improve the process, (iii) identify key actions to expand the program, (iv) exchange good practice experiences of expert twins, and (v) strengthen twinning relations and peer-to-peer knowledge exchange.

14 JAPAN SPECIAL FUND ANNUAL REPORT 2009

30. ADB implements the WOPs Program through the regional TA supporting WOPs in Asia financed by the JSF. 9 ADB's WOPs Program works to enable water utilities to improve service coverage and delivery, financial sustainability, and other aspects of their performance. One of its strategies is to establish twinning arrangements between water utilities, by which an expert water utility is tapped to help recipient developing utilities enhance their skills and operational efficiency.

The twinning of Southeast Asian water utilities is discussed.

31. Representatives from Southeast and South Asian water utilities declared that "Twinning is winning." During the Twinning Regional Forum, expert and recipient twins shared best practices as well as results achieved during the implementation of twinning activities. These included (i) reduced non-revenue water, (ii) minimized illegal connections, (iii) setting up district metering areas, and (iv) training for staff and others.

32. Overall, the twinning approach to improving utilities has delivered excellent and encouraging results. Non-revenue water has been reduced, better customer service is in place, and training methods have improved, as have a host of other operating practices. With the extension of the regional TA, additional partnerships will be forged and include utilities from Central Asia, East Asia, and, hopefully, the Pacific.

33. Higher education in Lao PDR. The Ministry of Education of the Lao PDR highly appreciated the Government of Japan's support through JSF TA that prepared the Strengthening Higher Education Loan Project.10 As the first higher education project in recent years, the project spearheaded ADB's renewed commitment to education embodied in its Strategy 2020.11 In several instances, the Government of the Lao People's Democratic Republic widely praised the assistance from ADB and the Government of Japan to higher education in Lao PDR, particularly through the Vientiane Times.12

34. Momentum for the Pacific Regional Audit Initiative. The JSF-financed regional TA for Strengthening Governance and Accountability in Pacific Island Countries (Phase 2)13 supports the implementation of the Pacific Regional Audit Initiative (PRAI) in the Pacific Plan endorsed by Pacific Islands Forum leaders in 2005 and subsequently supported by forum economic ministers. The PRAI seeks to strengthen regional support to audit services in the region to improve integrity and financial scrutiny.

35. The PRAI’s overarching objective is to raise Pacific public auditing to uniformly high standards. This will contribute to good governance through improved transparency, accountability, and efficiency in managing and using public resources in the Pacific.

36. "The steady developments around the PRAI are extremely encouraging,” observed Tuiloma Neroni Slade, secretary general of the Pacific Islands Forum. “This is an initiative that has seen good, steady progress since leaders identified it as key to good governance in the Pacific Plan. The momentum has been largely achieved thanks to forum economic ministers’ guidance and development partners’ commitment to achieving tangible results. We must keep up this drive towards uniformly raising public auditing standards in the region.”

37. In addition, the regional TA provides organizational support and leadership to meetings of the Pacific Association of Supreme Audit Institutions (PASAI).

38. Two key TA activities happened in Koror, Palau, from 18 to 24 July 2009. The Subregional Audit Support Program Committee meeting reviewed and endorsed the work that had been done to date and agreed on the terms and conditions for secondees’ participation in the program, whose objective is to enable the public accounts of Kiribati, Nauru, and Tuvalu to be audited to uniformly high standards in a timely manner. The 12th PASAI Congress, the purpose of which was to consider and endorse the implementation of PRAI activities, developed and approved the new PASAI Charter.

39. Improved rural infrastructure in northern Viet Nam. ADB and the Government of Viet Nam have signed a $1 million JSF grant agreement to prepare a rural infrastructure project to address poverty in the northern mountain provinces.14 Under the grant, a project will be formulated to provide remote mountain communities in 15 provinces with better access to markets, social services, and sub-regional trade centers, as well as improved social and environmental management. "Both ADB and the Government of Viet Nam appreciate the importance of efficient and functioning rural infrastructure as a foundation for broader socioeconomic growth and poverty reduction," said Ayumi Konishi.

Nguyen Van Binh, deputy governor of the State Bank of Viet Nam; Ayumi Konishi, ADB country director for Viet Nam; Tomohiro Fujiyama, first secretary of the Japanese Embassy; and senior officials in the Government of Viet Nam witnessed the technical assistance signing ceremony in Ha Noi on 24 March 2009.

C. Technical Assistance Completion Reports on Japan Special Fund-Financed Projects

40. In 2009, ADB rated 36 completed JSF-financed TA projects (Appendix 3), finding 2 (6%) highly successful, 17 (47%) successful, 16 (44%) partly successful, and 1 (3%) unsuccessful.

D. Cumulative Contributions from the Government of Japan

41. As of December 2009, Japan's cumulative contribution to the JSF since its inception in 1988 amounted to ¥112.9 billion ($973.7 million equivalent), comprising ¥94.8 billion in regular contributions and ¥18.1 billion in supplementary contributions.

E. Review of Activities

42. In 2009, the ADB and the Government of Japan agreed to review the JSF program. This is in response to the Government of Japan’s expressed intention to combine Japan’s project grant and TA support under one umbrella, and consistent with the Government's approach in the World Bank where its assistance is channeled through trust funds rather than special funds. The Revised Operating Framework for the Japan Fund for Poverty Reduction (Appendix 4) will emphasize capacity-building and knowledge-sharing, support PPTA also but only in selected focal sectors and themes in its TA program while the Japan Fund for Poverty Reduction project grants will continue to focus on poverty reduction activities in developing member countries. The JSF account would remain open and continue to support ongoing JSF-financed TAs.
