The following parameters are used in the Industry Report: GDP and GDP growth rate in Malaysia from 2014 to 2018, domestic and foreign direct investment trend in Malaysia from 2014 to 2018, industrial building volume, commercial building volume and residential building volume in Malaysia from 2014 to 2018, residential property price in Malaysia from 2014 to 2018, and price trends of major raw materials from 2014 to 2018. OVERVIEW OF ECONOMY IN MALAYSIA In 2010, the Malaysian government initiated the Economic Transformation Program target to turn Malaysia into a high income economy by 2020. To achieve the target of high-income status, the construction sector is set to play a key role. The construction GDP has remained an upward trend from RM48.7 billion in 2014 to RM68.8 billion in 2018, at a CAGR of 9.1%. The upward trend is expected to continue from RM71.8 billion in 2019 to RM103.9 billion in 2023, at a CAGR of 9.7%. The rising construction GDP was contributed by the increasing construction activities –63– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT.

The foreign direct investment (“FDI”), in particular, decreased in 2015 but recovered afterwards. The FDI increased to RM80.5 billion in 2018 from RM64.6 billion in 2014, at a CAGR of 5.7%. Despite the dip in direct investment, Malaysia’s net inflow of FDI improved considerably in the fourth quarter of 2018. The FDI was primarily channeling into the manufacturing sector with RM4.6 billion, followed by non-financial sector with RM4.1 billion. As a result, the total direct investment slightly rebounded to RM201.7 billion in 2018.

Sources: Malaysian Investment Development Authority; SHINEWING BAS analysis MARKET OVERVIEW OF THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY IN MALAYSIA The construction industry in Malaysia can be divided into four market segments based on building types, namely residential buildings, non-residential buildings, civil engineering works and special trades. Residential buildings refer to buildings intended for dwelling purpose; non-residential buildings refer to properties for manufacturing and business activities, which can be further categorised into industrial buildings, commercial buildings, and public facilities, for example factories, shopping malls, hotels and hospitals. Civil engineering works refer to the construction of infrastructure such as bridges, roads, railways, utility plants, harbor and refineries. Special trade activities refer to various auxiliary construction works including but not limited to demolition, site preparation, land reclamation, electrical and mechanical works, building service works. The diagram below illustrates the breakdown of building types in terms of value of construction works done in 2018. –64– THIS DOCUMENT IS IN DRAFT FORM, INCOMPLETE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND THAT THE INFORMATION MUST BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SECTION HEADED “WARNING” ON THE COVER OF THIS DOCUMENT.

The percentage number might not sum up to 100% due to rounding. Sources: Department of Statistics, Malaysia; SHINEWING BAS analysis Impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on Malaysia’s construction industry As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread, Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, which saw its first confirmed case in January 2020, is actively taking countermeasures and steps to reduce the spread of the coronavirus amid the sharp increase of confirmed cases. As of 23 March 2020, confirmed coronavirus cases in Malaysia surged by 205% to 1,306, compared to 428 on 15 March 2020. Despite the spike of COVID-19 cases in the past week, the number of confirmed cases in Malaysia remains relatively small compared to other countries around the globe. In anticipation of a relief package to blunt the impacts to economic growth if the spread of virus continues, it is possible that the Malaysian government may introduce measures in the future such as the provision of funding to support lending program for distressed enterprises, offering unemployment insurance to protect laid off workers, a tax cut for individuals and corporates as well as issuing checks to low-income households. Although these measures, if introduced, may cause short-term cash crunch to the Malaysian government, SHINEWING BAS is of the view that such moves are not likely to impact the construction industry of Malaysia in the medium and long run.
