Cement sales, exports set to rise this fiscal
KARACHI: On the back of upbeat local demand and bright export prospects, the cement sector is expected to have another windfall year in sales as well as in exports.
Analysts and industrialists of the cement sector say the last quarter of fiscal year has always proved a boon for the industry because of an increase in construction and development activities across the country with the onset of the summer season.
Due to strong expectations of high consumption in the days to come, the estimates for the whole-year sales are being revised upwards.
Based on the cement dispatches in the first nine months of the current financial year, the full-year cement sales is being forecast at 24-24.5 millions tons against earlier estimates of 23.5 million tons of sales in the whole year.
Tuesday Newspaper Review - Irish Business News and International ...
The Irish Independent reports that reform of the public sector is the single most important task needing to be addressed by any new government, according to ISME, the small business group. The public sector has been given a "free ride" for far too long and urgently needed to be reformed from top to bottom, if the public was to regain any faith in a system that continues to drain the public finances and threatens our economic viability, ISME argues. ISME chief executive Mark Fielding said the cost of running the public sector has completely run out of control, with both the business community and public suffering in the form of higher costs and reduced services. Benchmarking "The public sector pay bill increased from 10.2bn in 2001 to 16.7bn last year - an increase of 64pc - with the benchmarking initiative accounting for up to 1.32bn of that rise," Mr Fielding said.

Indian wind firm lifts German bid
India's Suzlon Energy has stepped up its efforts to buy a German wind turbine maker, upping a takeover offer and trumping its main French rival. Suzlon raised its offer for Repower Systems to 150 euros per share, valuing the firm at 1.2bn euros (817m). The India company owns a 7.7% stake in Repower, and is competing against France's Areva, which owns 29.6%. Should it win the battle, Suzlon would be become the world's fourth-largest wind turbine maker. Pressing issue Governments worldwide want renewable energy to become more available and more widely used. High oil prices and concerns about the impact of fossil fuels on global warming have intensified calls for more environmentally-friendly forms of energy production. As a result, companies have been looking to invest more in wind, solar and wave generation, and analysts said they expect to see more consolidation in the industry.
