The World Bank Team returned to Ilocos Region for the PRDP - 4th World Bank Implementation Support Mission this week.

The team visited three subprojects: the P115 million Rehabilitation of Balecbec-Basca FMR and Balecbec Bridge in La Union; the P67.3 million Rehabilitation of the Nalasin-Sungadan-Langiden FMR in Paoay, Ilocos Norte; and the P13.1 million Production and Marketing of Fresh Carabao Mangoes Enterprise in Cabugao, Ilocos Sur.

The team gave positive evaluations for the subprojects, aside from minor comments and suggestions (e.g. guaranteeing the non-usage of inorganic chemicals in the production of mangoes, assuring the climate-resiliency of the infrastructures, etc.)

The World Bank consultants headed by Frauke Jungbluth commented that the Project must emphasize not only the benefits identified in the proposals, but also the benefits which arise as implementation progresses.

The team likewise highlighted the mainstreaming of the PCIP, which is the listing of interventions by priority commodities. The World Bank stressed that interventions identified in the PCIP cannot all be funded under PRDP.

The Mission first came in the Ilocos Region in February 2015 when the Rehabilitation of Balecbec-Basca FMR was still under proposal. # # #
