Continual focus on resolving bottlenecks

In that spirit, the province will prioritize the allocation of capital for projects completed in 2023 and carry them forward to 2024, capital participation in PPP projects, counterpart capital for ODA projects and key projects in the province, balancing the budget in the context of limited new revenue sources.
