This paper focuses on the decision-making process and related problems of ODA (Official Development Assistance) in the education sector, aimed at improving the quality and effectiveness of the aid projects. It is based on an analysis of the preliminary survey reports, basic design study reports on the five projects of education sector and the like. The discussions with some bureaucrats and administrative officers and experts concerned with aid system in both sides (Donor-Recipient) are also mainly considered. Although Japan's foreign aid has been incorporating various philosophies and objectives over the years, on the 30th of June 1992 it was by the Cabinet under the name of Japan Official Development Assistance Charter (ODA Charter). On the above mentioned constitution, (1) humanitarian considerations, (2) recognition of interdependence among nations of the international community, (3) environmental consideration, and (4) self help efforts of recipient countries are the basic philosophies. Since 1986 Japan has been the largest donor of bilateral official development assistance to Sri Lanka and the ODA received in various forms of assistance from Japan is now at percentage of 46%. Particularly for the sector of education, Japan is the largest donor since 1977. There are about 15 grant aid projects, especially in building construction. Educational asistance is the most effective assistance for the real development of Sri Lanka, and encourage self-help efforts. Unfortunately, up to now with the obtained aid Sri Lanka has had become dependent and therefore lacking of a self-help effort philosophy. Therefore, in the future, though the grant aid is permitted, it would be appriciated if it can be carried out by Sri Lankans with a view point towards sustainable development. To bring this into practice, giving more priority to educational assistance and finding out the problems which hinder the self-help efforts in the decision-making process and implementation systems could be stepping stones. Finaly, some suggestions to the implementation of Japan's ODA in the education sector are given as follows: -Reconsideration of the request basis principle, -Reinforcement of development survey and project formation research for education sector, -Integration of the aid programs in aid implementation authorities and other agencies involved in education assistance, -Creating an appropriate strategy to encourage self-help effort, -Providing trainning programs of aid management for administrative officers in recipient countries.
