Overall, the Project implementation progress is on track with satisfactory performance. Satisfactory progress was observed in Component 2 and Component 3 and a slightly slower progress in Component 1, although most of the activities envisaged at appraisal are under implementation and could be well completed by the current closing date. Most of additional works and new investments agreed during the last mission have been fulfilled and construction activities are progressing satisfactorily. Technical Assistance (TA) programs, including provincial water resources investment management plans (WRIP), capacity building of water user organizations (WUO), etc., are now progressing satisfactorily. 2. Project disbursement of IDA fund is slower than projected due to: (1) slower implementation progress with land acquisition for irrigation subproject in Ca Mau, which is the biggest irrigation subproject in money term; and (2) Government change in the way of doing planning and budgeting for ODA projects that hampered the disbursement progress due to insufficient budget allocation to MARD and MPI. At the time of the mission, the IDA budget required for the Project for year 2016 is US$41.5 million, but actual allocation received is only US$23.3 million – a lack of US$18.2 million. 3. About US$16.72 million was paid during January to end-August 2016 (or about an average of US$2.0 million disbursed per month) which is lower than the expected payment projection in which about US$38 million was planned to be paid in year 2016[1]. An amount of almost US$46 million remained will need to be disbursed by the current closing date (about six months from now). This means an amount of about US$6.5 million disbursed per month on average which appears difficult given the strict requirement to follow the Government regulations both at central and provincial levels. 10/27/2016 Page 2 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report VN - Mekong Delta Water Management for Rural Dev (P113949) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  Moderate  Moderate Macroeconomic  --  Low  Low Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Moderate  Moderate Technical Design of Project or Program  --  Low  Low Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Substantial  Substantial Fiduciary  --  Moderate  Moderate Environment and Social  --  Moderate  Moderate Stakeholders  --  Low  Low 10/27/2016 Page 3 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report VN - Mekong Delta Water Management for Rural Dev (P113949) Other  --  --  -- Overall  --  Moderate  Moderate Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  Number of areas where agricultural production has increased (Hectare(Ha), Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 40000.00 55000.00 50000.00 Date 01-Sep-2011 25-Mar-2016 16-Sep-2016 31-Dec-2016 PHINDPDOTBL  Number of areas where agricultural production has been maintained through prevention of future salinity intrusion and flood risks.
