The sum was pledged at a working session between the Binh Phuoc provincial People’s Committee and a working delegation from the Viet Nam Ministry of Planning and Investment (MoPI) and the ADB.
The projects aim to provide an efficient, safe and reliable road system to benefit ethnic minority groups and poor communities in the five provinces. They will start in early 2016.
In 2015, the ADB will provide $900,000 for the five provinces to make detailed plans for their projects.
