Humanitarian assistance and disaster response is one of the main aspects of cooperation between the Philippines and the United States under EDCA, along with interoperability, capacity building, maritime security, and maritime domain awareness, among others. ### DND Press Release | Page 1 of 1 . -
Development Coordination
Malolos-Clark Railway Project (RRP PHI 52083) DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION A. Major Development Partners: Strategic Foci and Key Activities 1. Major development partners in the Philippines transport sector are the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the Government of Australia, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), the United Kingdom, and the World Bank (Table 1). The Republic of Korea (ROK) and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) have also supported the country with transport infrastructure.

The development partners are united in supporting the national spatial strategy of the Philippine Development Plan (PDP), 2017–2022.1 ADB focuses on supporting the road and rail subsectors, and plays a supporting role in addressing governance, institutional capacity, and the low productivity of transport agencies. In addition to supporting the road subsector, ADB has extended assistance, together with JICA, for rail subsector projects. In the rail subsector, ADB and JICA will cofinance a series of projects that will eventually create investment opportunities for other cofinanciers, including private sector investors.
