3 What's JICA? A Bridge Linking Japan and Developing Countries JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency)* is the executing agency of Japanese ODA, which assists and supports developing countries to resolve various issues they are facing Funds that are used in Japanese ODA are supported by the taxes paid by Japanese people JICA is in charge of disbursing the majority of bilateral ODA including Technical Cooperation, ODA Loan and Grant Aid in an integrated manner JICA is currently the world s largest bilateral aid agency working in over 150 countries and regions and having nearly 100 overseas offices * JICA is an Incorporated Administrative Agency in Japan Official Assistance (ODA) Bilateral Assistance Multilateral Assistance JICA's Approach JICA Technical Cooperation ODA Loan Grant Aid* *This excludes Grant Aid directly implemented by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for diplomatic consideration What is Japanese ODA? The financial and technical assistance that governments of developed countries provide to developing countries as part of this economic cooperation are called Official Assistance (ODA)* Since 1954, Japan has been providing financial and technical assistance to developing countries through ODA, aiming to contribute to the peace and development of the world Japanese ODA is broadly divided into bilateral aid, in which assistance is given directly to developing countries, and multilateral aid, which is provided through international organizations JICA provides bilateral aid in the form of Technical Cooperation, ODA Loans and Grant Aid *ODA, as defined by the Assistance Committee (DAC) of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and (OECD), must meet the following three requirements: It should be undertaken by governments or government agencies The main objective is the promotion of economic development and welfare in developing countries It has concessional terms, having a grant element of at least 25% The grant element measures the concessionality or softness of the financial terms of a loan The lower the interest rate and the longer the maturity period, the higher the grant element, which means it is more beneficial to the borrower The grant element for a grant is 100% JICA's Vision : JICA, with its partners, will take the lead in forging bonds of trust across the world, aspiring for a free, peaceful and prosperous world where people can hope for a better future and explore their diverse potentials In order to continuously achieve the steady economic growth and poverty reduction while overcoming the new challenges, the Government of Cambodia set up its Rectangular Strategy, the National Strategic development Plan(NDSP) and the Industrial Policy (IDP), as described development strategy to achieve its long term development vision In line with these strategies, the Japanese government revised its Cooperation Policy for Cambodia in July 2017 and established its overall goal as support the further strengthening of socio-economic foundations to achieve an upper-middle income country status by 2030 for further step-ups of Cambodian development Leading the world with trust JOCV activity (Photo: ISHIKAWA Masayori / JICA) JPP activity : NGO SHARE JICA's Cooperation and Strategy and Priority Areas For supporting the further strengthening of socio-economic foundations to achieve an upper-middle income country status by 2030 In accordance with this policy, JICA focuses on the following three priority areas for its operation: (1)Industrial development, (2)Better quality of life and (3)Fostering a sustainable society through the strengthening of governance Under these priority areas and based on the latest analyses of development challenges and their socio-economic context, JICA mobilizes all the assistance schemes to work towards the above-stated development objective, while fully respecting the ownership by the Government and people of Cambodia Moreover, JICA also proactively collaborates with important partners including traditional and emerging development partners, the private sector as well as civil society organizations which have certain level of expertise in their own respective fields Technical Cooperation ODA Loans Grant Aid For human resources development and the improvement of administrative systems of developing countries, Technical Cooperation involves dispatching of experts, provision of necessary equipment and training of personnel in Japan and other countries Cooperation plans can be tailored to address a broad range of issues and needs of developing countries ODA loans support developing countries above a certain income level by providing low-interest, long-term concessional loans to finance their development efforts ODA loans are used for large-scale infrastructure and other forms of development works that require substantial funds In the case of Cambodia, the terms and conditions of 001% interest with 40 years repayment period including 10 years grace period are applied Consultants and contractors for ODA Loan projects are selected through international competitiveness processes led by the loan recipient country As a result, a number of local companies have been involved in project implementation Grant aid is provision of funds to developing countries which have low income levels, without the obligation of repayment Grant aid is used to improve basic infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, water-supply facilities and roads, along with health and medical care, equipment and other requirements The Royal Government of Cambodia Rectangular Strategy Integration of Cambodia into the Region & the World Agriculture Enhancement Relevant
