Will M&A Or Mega Projects Spur Construction?

The Bursa Malaysia Construction index is up 12.7% on a year to date basis. And this week, there was exciting news in the M&A scene with IJM taking a stake in Pestech. We check in with familiar face, Chong Tjen San, Director at CGS CIMB securities and get his views on the local M&A scene, going overseas for projects, what are the mega projects rolling out to spur the industry, and the trillion dollar question, what are his top 3 construction stocks to buy?
