Nepal: Investment Board Nepal (IBN) and Huaxin Cement have signed a Project Investment Agreement (PIA) for the Chinese company to build a cement plant. The agreement follows the Department of Mines and Geology’s decision to award a limestone mine in Dhading district to the Chinese cement producer, according to the Xinhua news agency. Huaxin Cement plans to spend US$140m towards building a plant with a cement production capacity of 3000t/day. The deal follows an agreement between the IBN and Hongshi Cement finalised in September 2017 to build a new plant for around US$360m.
