The cement sector is expected to export some 700,000 tonnes of clinker and cement in 2010, according to the Construction Ministry.
However, this is a very small part of the total amount of cement in stock in Vietnam, which is estimated to be 3.5 million tonnes in the year.
According to experts, cement is a comparatively low-value product and is difficult to store; moreover there is a lack of ports and vehicles to transport the product, as a result, the exporting of cement encounters many difficulties.
At this point, the Ministry urges cement producers which are joint ventures between Vietnamese and foreign partners to continuously boost exports of their products as they have committed to do.
