ADB Concession review Puts Cambodian Forestry Reform at Risk
The Asia Development Bank (ADB) funded concession review, one of the most crucial elements of forestry reform in Cambodia, has been crippled by time and financial constraints resulting from shortcomings in the ADB management process. The review, a major recommendation of the World Bank funded TA Projects in May 1998, was intended to identify those concessions which should be terminated for repeated infractions, and those which should remain, with re-negotiated contracts.
