These technological innovations enhance the Group’s core competitiveness in the construction industry, and actively utilise digital technology to improve work efficiency and site safety.

The government has introduced two strategic initiatives in the 2025-2026 Budget Proposal, which are anticipated to have positive impacts on the Group’s operations. The increase of capital works expenditure creates new project opportunities for the construction sector, thereby expanding the market for the Group’s core businesses. The Skills Enhancement Allowance Scheme for the construction sector is projected to reduce the Group’s workforce development expenditures and enhance the skillsets of its human capital.
Our Group will continue to work hard to find new potential construction business opportunities to achieve Group’s profit growth. At the same time, leveraging our experience in the industry, our Group is keen to explore suitable business opportunities in construction and environmental industries and other areas both domestic and overseas.
