The Central America & Caribbean region includes CEMEXs operations in Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Panama, Nicaragua and Puerto Rico, as well as our trading operations in the Caribbean region. The Asia region includes CEMEXs operations in the Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand and Bangladesh.
CEMEXs quarterly reports prior to 2003 consolidated CEMEXs operations in Panama and the Dominican Republic into Venezuela. Beginning in 2003, CEMEXs Venezuelan operations do not include Panama and the Dominican Republic, but for presentation purposes, are now consolidated into the Central America & Caribbean region. For comparison purposes, Venezuelas and Central America & Caribbean region figures for 2002 were restated to make them comparable with the new disclosure procedures.
