The Hambantota International Port Group (HIPG) has offered this land extent to Shandong as the first-ever foreign direct investment (FDI) within the industrial park.
In the first phase of the project, the company is targeting an annual production of 9 million tyres to be shipped via 45,000 containers.

Another cock and bull show, Tyre manufacturing plant start up will not cost 300M dollars. The Chinese are up to something nasty and fishy. Annual production of 9M tyres ? Not possible with Sri Lankan labor, Chinese labor or robots.
