Abstract
In 2003, the ADB conducted a summary review of the MDGs in the RMI. The ADB described the progress of the RMI in meeting the specific targets of the MDGs as slow (ADB, 2003:13). In some areas, particularly in reducing infant and maternal mortality and increasing gender equality in education, the RMI was praised for making marked improvements. However, in other areas, the RMI was seen as making little or only moderate progress, particularly in terms of access to clean water and sanitation, combating communicable diseases such as HIV/AIDS, TB, other sexually transmitted diseases, diabetes, influenza, etc., and addressing specific poverty reduction strategies such as access to employment opportunities and reducing development gaps between the urban centers and rural outer-islands.
