Eric shares that he expects Crest Builders to see a record year for FY2018. This is on the back of construction contracts. He reveals that the group's order book stands at RM1.8 billion.

We also discuss the ongoing hot topic -- affordable housing.

Why are property players -- Crest Builders included -- shying away from affordable housing?

We ask Eric this.
