The MRC component includes all four MRC member states (Lao PDR, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam). The MRC Component has made steady progress towards achievement of its development objectives. A key milestone for the overall Mekong Integrated Water Resources Management Program has been achieved as all three national projects in Lao PDR, Vietnam, and Cambodia are now fully operational and thus able to contribute to the core activities under the MRC component. Disbursement stands at 64% of the total grant amount; the closing date is currently being extended to March 2019. The Lao PDR national project (components 2 and 3 of the Project) is proceeding smoothly with disbursement at 94% of original financing. An additional financing operation of US$25 million for the Lao part of the Project (Components 2 and 3) has been approved by the World Bank Board on July 6, 2017 and declared effective on October 11, 2017. Several key actions prepared under original financing will now move forward (e.g. water quality monitoring, development of regulations under the new water Law, irrigation and flood management infrastructure).
