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.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCOUNTABILITYACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISMSADMINISTRATIVE REFORMAGRICULTURAL SECTORBUDGET EXECUTIONBUDGET MANAGEMENTCASH MANAGEMENTCENTRAL GOVERNMENTCITIZENSCORRUPTIONCOUNCIL OF MINISTERSCURRENCY UNITDECENTRALIZATIONDEVELOPING COUNTRIESECONOMIC MANAGEMENTEMPLOYMENTEXCHANGE RATESEXECUTIONFINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITYFINANCIAL CONTROLFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFISCALFISCAL SUSTAINABILITYGEOGRAPHICAL TARGETINGGOVERNMENT MINISTRIESGOVERNMENT SPENDINGGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTHEALTH STATUSINCOMEINCOME COUNTRIESINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKINSTITUTIONAL REFORMINTERGOVERNMENTAL TRANSFERSLONG TERMLOW INCOME COUNTRIESMUNICIPALITIESNATIONAL POVERTYNATIONAL POVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGYNATIONSPARTNERSHIPPOVERTY LINEPOVERTY REDUCTIONPRIME MINISTERPRIVATE SECTORPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE MANAGEMENTPUBLIC EXPENDITURE POLICYPUBLIC EXPENDITURE REVIEWPUBLIC FUNDSPUBLIC OFFICIALSPUBLIC RESOURCESPUBLIC SECTORPUBLIC SECTOR WAGESPUBLIC WORKSRECURRENT EXPENDITURESRESOURCE ALLOCATIONRESOURCE MOBILIZATIONROADSSECTOR POLICYSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE EMPLOYMENTSERVICE PROVISIONSOCIOECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTTASK TEAM LEADERSTAXTAX REVENUETEAM MEMBERSTREASURYWATER RESOURCESYOUTH SERVICE DELIVERYRESOURCE ALLOCATIONINSTITUTIONAL REFORMRESOURCE MOBILIZATIONFISCAL SUSTAINABILITYFIDUCIARYPUBLIC FUNDSPUBLIC EXPENDING PROGRAMSEMPLOYMENTCIVIL SERVICEMACROECONOMIC PERFORMANCEEXPENDITURE ANALYSISFINANCINGHEALTH ISSUESEDUCATIONTRANSPORTAGRICULTUREREFORM POLICIESBUDGET EXECUTIONCASH MANAGEMENTWorld Bank10.1596/14635
