Production of electric cables for ships in Vietnam
The Middle Area Construction and Shipbuilding Industry Company (Macshinco), an affiliate of Vinashin Group, officially handed over 20 tonnes of ship electric cables to the Saigon Shipbuilding Industry Corporation at the Hoa Khanh Industrial Zone in the central city of Danang, as Vietnam Business reports.
This success is believed to enable the Vietnamese shipbuilding industry to save foreign currencies for imports of input materials. Vinashin’s plant for ship electric cables can produce 8,000 tonnes of cables annually. After five months of operation, it was granted quality certificates by foreign and domestic registration agencies.
