Summary: | Since 1999 Cambodia has made significant
headway in reforming public expenditure policy and
management, yet in order to implement its development
agenda, Cambodia will have to make much more progress on
four principal fiscal, fiduciary, and institutional
challenges. First, Cambodia will have to improve resource
mobilization to ensure aggregate fiscal sustainability.
Second, to reduce the fiduciary risk to public funds, the
Government will have to engage in comprehensive reform o f
budget execution, cash management, and public financial
control systems. Third, the Government will have to
rationalize public expenditure policy and management further
to carry out both its Second Socioeconomic Development Plan
(SEDP) and its National Poverty Reduction Strategy
(NF'RS). Last, Cambodia will have need to undertake
comprehensive civil service reform-focusing on pay and
employment issues-in order to deliver poverty-reducing
services. The following sections elaborate on these four
core challenges and provide an outline of proposed solutions. |
