Sri Lanka: Harsha Cabral, the chairman of Tokyo Cement Company (Lanka), says that the company has taken several immediate measures to address a local cement shortage. He said in a statement that it is operating its grinding plant at Trincomalee at its full capacity of around 170,000t/month, according to the Daily Mirror newspaper. He added that the company had been importing 30,000t/month of bulk cement through the Tokyo Cement Colombo Terminal. It had also, following a request by the government, made arrangements to import an additional 12,000t /month of cement as a contingency measure. However, Cabral, noted that the cement shortage was due to a variety of reasons beyond the control of the company. These included a lack of bulk cargo ships and delays in opening credit letters with local banks.
