委內瑞拉總統(tǒng)查韋斯在上周日重申，委內瑞拉水泥工業(yè)國有化將于8月18日上午正式生效。
查韋斯在出席周日委內瑞拉國有電臺和電視臺的《你好，總統(tǒng)》(Alo Presidente) 節(jié)目中宣布了這一消息。
此舉將影響控制該國水泥生產的公司，包括墨西哥的CEMEX公司，法國的拉法基和瑞士的holcim有限公司。
查韋斯于四月三日首次宣布了國有化計劃，他指責這三家公司阻撓了建造業(yè)的發(fā)展，這些水泥公司沒有生產足夠的水泥并且他們的產品過于昂貴。
能源和石油部長Rafael Ramires說，委內瑞拉政府正在研究聯(lián)合控股的方案。委內瑞拉政府控制水泥公司60％以上的股份。

Venezuela's nationalization of cement industry takes effect today
(CARACAS, Venezuela) -- Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez reaffirmed on Sunday that the nationalization of his country's cement industry will come into effect on Monday morning.
Chavez made the announcement on his Sunday TV and radio talk show "Alo Presidente" (Hello President).
The move will affect companies that control the country's cement production, including Mexico's Cemex, France's Lafarge and Switzerland's Holcim Ltd.
Chavez first announced the nationalization plan on April 3, when he accused the three companies of impeding the development of the construction industry, saying the cement companies were not producing enough and their products were too expensive.
Energy and Petroleum Minister Rafael Ramires said the Venezuelan government was studying the option of mixed associations.
The Venezuelan government controls 60 percent or more of the cement companies' shares.
