The meeting on June 6 aimed to provide a venue for donors, beneficiaries, and project managers to review the progress of the projects in this field and seek measures to remove barriers to them.

Participants also mentioned some issues like updating information on the progress of public finance reform in general, policy dialogue, and other discussions relating to donors.

A report at the meeting show that in the first half of the year, many international donors paid attention to the signing of new ODA programmes and projects to provide additional funding for public finance reform.

The Ministry of Finance already disbursed an estimated amount of US$15 million in the first five months of 2011.
