The lawmaker said the company was built at $2.4 billion with state of the art olefins plant, polyethylene/butane and polyprophene plant, captive power plant and caustic soda plant and other facilities. But due to lack of proper asset valuation, the company was sold to Indorama corporation for US$215 million by the Bureau of Public Enterprise.
