This value will provide good savings to the state-owned company's cash.

Forecast for the start of works

Despite these “blessed” works having been postponed countless times, those responsible for the sector claim that it will start in the first quarter of next year, since the Chinese company will finance itself and must bring its equipment and parts directly from China to play the construction.
