V

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES ' OF
INDONESIAN PROJECT MANAGER
AND AUSTRALIAN TEAM LEADER

1.

Foreign aid tends to create consequences which
should be handled and taken core of adequately.

2.

3.

In general these consequences have a:
a.

Managerial nature.

b.

Technical nature.

Accordingly it is necessary

to

stipulate

that,

in the case of technical assistance, the Project
Manager is fully responsible for the successful l
implementation of the items provided for

in the

Memorandum of Understanding, whereas the Team
Leader is more responsible for the quality of
the technical works therefore the Team Leader
should always act in-consultation with the
Project Manager in order to achieve an adequate
implementation of the task.
