The construction sector has achieved repeated success in the first half of the year, with a total of 26.36 billion ringgit worth of contracts secured. Analysts predict that the second half of the year in this sector will soar with the support of large infrastructure projects, forecasting contracts exceeding 40 billion ringgit, reaching a new high since 2016.
On Wednesday, Fenglong Investment Bank released a report stating that the astonishing value of contracts secured in the domestic construction sector in the first half of 2024 reached as high as 20.738 billion ringgit, a 41% year-on-year increase, nearly matching the total contract value of 21.8 billion ringgit received by the sector in 2023.

"We found that the contract value in this sector for this quarter is 13.8 billion ringgit, the second highest quarterly record since we started compiling the database in 2009, second only to 2016."
Analysts further stated that achieving such excellent results in this sector during a period without significant infrastructure projects driving it is undoubtedly a great achievement.

"In short, the large projects postponed in the first half of the year are believed to be the mainstay leading the development of the sector in the second half of the year."
Analysts believe that in the second half of the year...
