Three Cambodian enterprises — Chaktomuk Campuchia, Sok Theara, and Global Green Energy — have been permitted to supply sand to highway projects in southern Vietnam.
The three companies received licenses from Cambodia’s Ministry of Mines and Energy to extract 1.39 billion tonnes of sand from the Mekong and Bassac Rivers.
Amid a scarcity of resources for highway projects in Vietnam’s southern region, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha recently tasked the Ministry of Transport with identifying a solution for addressing backfill material requests.
