Cambodia: Mines and Energy Minister Suy Sem says that a new 1.7Mt/yr cement plant in Battambang province is set to start production in mid-march 2017. Although the minister did not specify which plant was due to open, the only unit with that production capacity is Battambang Conch Cement, a joint venture between China’s Conch International Holdings and local cement firm Battambang KT Cement, according to the Phnom Penh Post newspaper. Construction at the site started in late 2016 with an investment of around US$230m. With the completion of this latest plant the country is now expected to be able to meet its own domestic demand with local supply.
