CHINA: China to build 3 cement factories in Kalimantan



China’s Anhui Conch Cement Company Ltd is planning to build cement factories in the South Kalimantan towns of Tabalong and Kotabaru and the East Kalimantan town of Paser.

“We’re planning to build three cement factories, namely in Tanah Grogot [Paser district], Tabalong and Kotabaru, thus the support of the regional administrations are very much expected,” Conch representative Ying Hok Fung said Saturday in Tabalong.

Ying said the three regions were rich in raw materials for cement, and Tabalong in particular had relatively superior supporting infrastructure.

Tabalong regent Rachman Ramsyi said that investors had not yet fully explored the regency’s abundant raw materials for cement. 

“We believe the Conch Group’s plan to build a cement factory in Tabalong could therefore be realized,” Rachman added, as quoted by Antara.
