Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? No Components Table Name Strengthening Quality of Land Service Delivery:(Cost $6.84 M) Establishment and Development of the Multi-Purpose Land Information System and Land Database:(Cost $160.39 M) Project Management:(Cost $12.77 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Substantial Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions The Project progress at mid-term has been slow with marginal disbursement ratio, the Multi-Purpose Land Information System (MPLIS) has not yet been implemented and the application software has not been selected, and the land database development has started only in eight out of 33 provinces. However, the Project is ready to start rapid acceleration and scale-up of activities. And the PDO remains relevant and achievable, if the implementation picks up as currently planned. The projected disbursement for FY20 would be about US$ 23 million, mostly from database development (approx.15% of the project IDA cost). For these reasons, the Bank has agreed with MONRE, GDLA and CPMU to grant the project an additional six months to accelerate implementation before recommending major restructuring or cancellation of funds. During this time, the Project must address the main implementation and sustainability challenges, such as the delay in development of the IT system to maintain and share data, 12/30/2019 Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Vietnam: Project for Improved Land Governance and Databases (VILG) (P154387) delays in land database development making it impossible to finish all planned provincial databases by the current closing date and lack of funding for technical assistance and capacity development that is necessary for the technology transfer due to the MOF regulations. If these risks are not sufficiently addressed by the next mission, tentatively scheduled for May 2020, the Bank could conclude that the Project is no longer feasible in its current design. Therefore, a number of key actions has been agreed to be implemented by May 2020, such as implementing an interim MPLIS solution to host and maintain the data digitized under the project and pilot some online public services through the land portal at GDLA/MONRE; acceleration of land database related procurement and disbursements according to the revised projections; as well as other project related actions.
