  4. PRSP versus Mid-Term (5 Year) Plan • PRSP is a development strategy document, not a development plan document • In PRSP market mechanism is the driving force of development, where as in 5 Year Plan Governments play crucial role in development • PRSP is stakeholders participation based development framework, where as 5 Year Plan is a technical document based on CGEM, IOM, SAM. etc
