These townships have 390 villages with a population of 225,941 people. About 57 percent of the households in the project villages participated in the planning, decision making and the subproject implementation processes. The Project remains highly relevant in the context of high rural poverty rates and a history of underinvestement in infrastructure and services in rural areas. Sub-project costs and implementing agency costs have to date remained well within budget allocations. Following the first community cycle, the Project conducted social audits at the community level (showing high levels of community satisfaction) and multi-stakeholder reviews at the township and union levels. The lessons leaned in year one and inputs from these meetings were used to inform improvements to the Project Operations Manual. The Project will expand to a further six new townships in the 2nd year; Pinlebu township in Sagaing Region; Sidoktaya township in Magway Region; Laymrethna township in Ayeyarwady Region; Ann Township in Rakhine State; Htantabin township in Yangon Region and Takone township in Nay Pyi Taw Union Territory. Together, the nine townships targeted in the second year are home to around 850,000 people. 12/17/2014 Page 2 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Myanmar National Community Driven Development Project (P132500) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance -- -- Substantial Macroeconomic -- -- Substantial Sector Strategies and Policies -- -- Substantial Technical Design of Project or Program -- -- Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and -- -- High Sustainability Fiduciary -- -- Substantial Environment and Social -- -- Moderate Stakeholders -- -- High Other -- -- -- Overall -- -- High Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL Direct project beneficiaries (Number, Core) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 250.00 850.00 2500.00 Date 01-Oct-2012 31-Mar-2014 30-Nov-2014 31-Dec-2016 Comments Defined as number of persons resident in beneficiary townships.
