I. Introduction
The reason why we selected the project
Practical demand for assistance
Project purpose
![Page 4: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The reason why
Plant quarantine system and technical skills of Vietnam quarantine staff were not sufficiently developed to meet the challenges of international trade requirements.
Training needed to be able to access export markets.

Practical demand for assistance
VietNam requested the Government of Japan to provide technical assistance in fruit fly disinfestation of fresh fruit
A JICA-funded (Japan International Cooperation Agency) project was proposed

5. Impact of the US Notification on Irradiation
Since July 2007, Vietnamese Plant Protection Department working with APHIS-USDA to advance pre-clearance programme for irradiated dragon fruit to United States market.
Several dragon fruit production areas approved to produce for United States market.
Traceability system (PUC) established for fruit exports to United States. Will also be used for Japanese and other markets.
![Page 33: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
6. Ways in which the impact of technical assistance can be maximized on trade
performance
Build on achievements of related technical assistance projects, and promote linkages
The dragon fruit pest list – developed under New Zealand project – used as main reference to draft the Pest Risk Assessment (PRA) for APHIS.
The draft PRA for dragon fruit by APHIS-USDA was in turn used to determine the target pests for the JICA project research.
The fruit fly pest determination from the JICA project was used to discuss and agree with APHIS-USDA to finalize the quarantine fruit fly pest list and PRA for Vietnamese dragon fruit (2008).
![Page 34: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
7. Lessons for other products and countries
Using the equipment, facilities, knowledge developed under the JICA project, Vietnamese staff continue research to apply the same VHT method to other fruit (mango, milk apple) for Japanese market (2009-10).
The final technical report for VHT of dragon fruit submitted not only to Japan (April 2008) but also to Chinese Taipei (Sep. 2008) and New Zealand (planned in 2009).
Vietnamese staff provide training for plant quarantine inspectors in Cambodia on fruit fly rearing and VHT techniques (Oct. 2008) under a new JICA project.
![Page 35: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
8. Maintenance capabilities after end of project
Vietnamese staff continue to build on success and further develop capacity to meet the challenges ahead for market access by ourselves.
Project sustainability ensured through funding from annual governmental budget: over 700 million Vietnamese Dong (USD 45,000) allocated for fiscal year 2008 (budget support from JICA ended in Feb. 2008).
![Page 36: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
9. Awareness raising
Information exchange and dialogue with stakeholders
Private sector, university researchers, etc. participated in annual joint coordinating committee meetings held every year during project implementation.
Stakeholders participated in final project evaluation by JICA, MAFF, MARD.
Commercial interest and investment – expected to be completed at time when the ban is lifted by Japan.
![Page 37: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
10. Difficulties and advantages
Difficulties Differences in timing of Vietnamese and
Japanese fiscal years – administrative challenges.
Time to develop annual plans of project activities generally coincided with the end of Vietnamese fiscal year and the time when Vietnam counterparts had to draw up final financial balance-sheets.
![Page 38: Good Practice in SPS-related Technical Cooperation](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070418/568157ad550346895dc53b11/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Timely decision-making and support from MARD, Plant Protection Department and leadership from other related organization for solving problems when they occurred.
Planned experiments for each year were implemented smoothly as scheduled.
Advantages
