More construction jobs: Ongoing projects such as the MRT2 will contribute to the order books of infrastructure constructions players this year.

PETALING JAYA: The construction sector outlook for 2017 seems promising, particularly for infrastructure construction players, given the slew of government projects.

A head of research said ongoing projects like the Mass Rapid Transit 2 (MRT2), Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) and Petronas’ Refinery and Petrochemical Integrated Development (Rapid) project site in Pengerang will largely contribute to the order books of infrastructure construction players for the year.
