The positive result was attributed to Vinacomin’s goodmarket research which allowed the group to sell its products at the right timewhen the prices went up.
The local demand for coal for production of electricity,cement, fertiliser and others is forecast to remain high in the time ahead so Vinacominwill manage to balance the coal production and sales to reduce inventory and meetthe demand at the same time.
