Despite the Department of Trade and Industry's repeated prodding contractors
are backing off from their plan to import cement unless the government allows
the Philippine International Trading Corp (PTIC) to undertake the

Members of the Philippine Construction Association (PCA) met with DTI officials

for fear of offending their suppliers.

The PCA has already imported a total of 25,000 metric tons of cement, due to
arrive at three points of entry in Mindanao, Visayas and Luzon.
