The rent-seeking behavior and elite capture attitude in the developments of special economic zones (SEZs) and other projects
CHALLENGES:
Need for evidence-based decision-making process in the government and beyond
SOLUTION
ECD DASHBOARD
Ine cient governance and resource allocation
Enables policy makers to conduct various scenario analyses including for developing SEZs as part of economic corridor development (ECD).
Sectoral prioritization development
Closing the district development gaps
SEZ development framework
ECD navigation
Zonal valuation system
The result is objectively the most optimum development option based on best available information.
NEXT STEPS
Adopt the Dashboard
for supporting planning in ECD and others, including for selecting a new project by introducing optimalization and contextualization concepts in addition to the standard economic feasibility.
Continuously updating
the data and system to make the Dashboard more timely and relevant.
Institutionalize the Dashboard
by installing and housing it in the Government’s line ministries, Universities and Think-Tanks to facilitate a regular evidence- based policy-making process and various assessments and analyses on key development issues.
Promote the Dashboard
for adoption and scaling up in other countries, including by writing an ADB blog. (https://blogs.adb.org/blog/can-big-data-hel p-us-make-better-development-decisions).
