Heatwaves, drought, and floods are damaging roads and irrigation in rural Cambodia, cutting farmers off from markets and putting food supplies at risk.
Our new financing package will help about 200,000 smallholder farmers build resilience and give women, who make up more than half of the country’s farm workforce, a bigger role in agriculture.

Warm congratulations to Keiju Mitsuhashi as he takes up his new role as ADB’s first Country Director for Türkiye.
Türkiye is a vital hub connecting Asia and Europe through transport, energy, and digital networks. Keiju’s expertise in regional power trade, energy security, and private sector development will be invaluable as we begin this new chapter of our partnership.
I have every confidence in his leadership as we work with Türkiye to strengthen resilience and unlock the private sector’s potential to support sustainable growth. I wish Keiju every success in this important new role.

Coastal areas drive Asia and the Pacific’s growth but face intensifying environmental threats.
Our new report finds that scaling up financing for resilience could deliver benefits up to 20 times greater than the investment: lnkd.in/ekQs3eFp

A memorable gathering in Manila with my fellow MDB leaders for the historic, first-ever meeting of the Heads of MDBs meeting in the Philippines.

The Heads of Multilateral Development Banks came together for the Group's first-ever meeting in Manila, Philippines.
It was an opportunity to discuss how to deliver greater impact for countries facing mounting challenges, turn shared commitments into action, and work together to scale up financing.

As I welcomed fellow MDB leaders to Manila for the group’s first-ever meeting here, I was encouraged by how much we have achieved together during ADB’s 2026 chairship.
Our partnership is delivering results. We have advanced private capital mobilization, including an updated MDB-wide methodology to measure it, and deepened collaboration on jobs, critical minerals, local currency financing, AI, and other shared priorities.
In an increasingly complex global environment marked by uncertainty, economic pressures, and rapid technological change, our collective action matters more than ever. I am confident we will build on this momentum and deliver even more for the people we serve.

Rising seas and the economic fallout of distant conflicts are placing severe pressure on the Pacific. Yet these nations are responding with remarkable resolve.
Watch highlights from my participation in Pre-COP31 in Fiji and Tuvalu to see how ADB is matching their determination by moving faster to deliver the financing required to protect vulnerable shores and build lasting economic resilience.
