  1. act as the local focal point to collaborate with the Asian Development Bank (ADB) CAREC trade facilitation team in conducting the CPMM annual exercise;
  2. organize and train drivers to use customized drivers’ forms for data collection;
  3. review completed drivers’ forms to ensure data completeness and correctness;
  4. input raw data from drivers’ forms into the CPMM spreadsheets; and
  5. submit completed CPMM files to CAREC.
