Project Objectives The TDSP's development objective is to increase RGC's efficiency in formulating and implementing effective trade policies. This is expected to lead to transparent and effective trade-related transactions, to export competitiveness, and poverty reduction. The TDSP's focus is on establishing an enabling environment that reduces the risk to other sector- and product-specific trade promotion and development activities. The TDSP will support the implementation of the Trade SWAp. The Trade SWAp will function as a coherent operating modality for interested donors to deliver trade-related assistance (TRA) and ensure its predictable, sustainable, efficient and effective financing. 3. Project Description The additional financing will provide further support in four key areas all designed to ensure full and effective implementation of the Trade SWAp, including regulatory reform, capacity building and the translation of international commitments into modern customs procedures and the development of a business friendly environment. First, it will support ongoing reform in the area of customs, trade standards and related legal reforms. Second, the evolution and application of a viable Trade SWAp that establishes benchmarks, creates milestones and reports transparently on progress towards targets. Third, a significant amount of funds will be devoted to sustainable capacity building for government officials. Fourth, the additional financing will support implementation of the project. 4. Project Location and salient physical characteristics relevant to the safeguard analysis The program will be implemented nationwide with policy towards achieving maximized contribution of trade to economic development and poverty reduction in the country. In the context of the on-going Cambodia Trade Facilitation and Competitiveness, the Borrower has limited exposure to social and environmental safeguard as the project mainly concentrates on trade facilitation efforts and does not trigger safeguards policy. 5.
