Libya: Hungary-based company Rotary International has proposed building a new cement plant in Libya as part of the country’s infrastructure reconstruction programme. The project was presented during talks in Tripoli between the company and Mustafa Al-Samou, undersecretary of the Ministry of Industry and Minerals, according to Zawya news. The ministry said in a statement that the facility will use ‘environmentally friendly’ technologies to boost local cement production, meet domestic demand and reduce reliance on imports.
