Cement plant licences for two projects being set up in the central Vietnam province of Nghe An have been revoked due to slow implementations.

The two projects are the 5Mta Tan Ky cement plant in Tan Ky district, and the 0.43Mta Hop Son works in Anh Son district, the Thoi Bao Kinh Te Vietnam newspaper reported.

The Tan Ky cement plant, a project by Kinh Bac City Development Share Holding Corp, started construction more than two years ago, on 19 May 2010.
