Philippines - First Water Supply, Sewerage, and Sanitation Sector Project
China
Ratings for the First Water Supply, Sewerage, and Sanitation Sector Project for Philippines were as follows: outcomes were satisfactory, project sustainability was likely, Bank performance was satisfactory, and Borrower performance was also satisfactory. Some lessons learned included: multi-agency type of projects should be avoided; where National Government Agencies are involved, it is recommended that a single agency serve as the executing agency. Projects should support decentralization where projects are planned and implemented by the Local Government Units (LGU), National Government Agencies (NGA) can provide the executing agency role, Provincial Government can assist with technical assistance, supervision and monitoring, and the Municipality and Barangay should be the focus of implementation. Cost recovery principles should be promoted and implementing agencies, i.e., LGUs, should borrow funds for investments and be fully accountable for them. All Government agencies with both direct and peripheral responsibility to the project should be involved from the earliest stages of project preparation. Planning, designing and implementation of sub-projects by LGUs should be based on need and demand and in close consultation and participation with the community.
