Iran is planning to invest US$ 500 million in the construction of a new cement plant in Tajikistan.

Iranian Ambassador to Tajikistan, Ali Asghar Sherdoust, told local reporters that the 1 million tpa capacity plant will be constructed in Nosir Khusrav district, Khatlon province. It will be constructed by Lian Kavan Kaniha Company, and is scheduled for completion in one and a half years.
