Deputy director ofthe group Nguyen Van Hai said that the price adjustment was for the group’s reinvestment activities.

According to Hai, the group is investing in five new coal mines with an estimated capacity of 1.5 million tonnes to 2 million tonnes per year at an expected investment capital between VND2 trillion and VND2.5 trillion ($105.3 million-131.6 million) each.

The increase would also help the group raise miners’ salaries, said Hai.

According to the group’s forecast, Viet Nam will have to import coal for the next three years and the group has set up a special team to prepare for import activities in the future.
