AFRICA: ANGOLA: Cement import to respect law

Luanda - Importing cement from Angola, in the coming days, shall be subject to limits enshrined in the law, on Friday here said the secretary of state for Industry, Kiala Gabriel, ANGOP learnt.

Speaking to the press at the end of a visit to "Nova Cimangola" cement factory, he said the government has created a cement comission that has been drafting a diploma that will regulate importing quotas.

Kiala Gabriel visited the factory in the company of the secretary of state for Geology and Mining, Makenda Amrboise, at the invitation of the "Nova Cimangola" board of directors.

He said that there has been competition in the cement market, something that is unfavourable to the domestic production.

Nova Cimangola produces about 1.2 tonnes of cement per year.
