In Malaysia, the problem issues are related to traffic congestion and many user cars on the roadway in daily lives. One alternative mode of using a rail network is commuter, LRT, Monorail, MRT and ETS. Therefore, the Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is then used to map and produce the railway networks history and developments in urban public transportation (UPT). The goal of this research is to identify the heatmap trends of the Klang Valley railway stations which included Kuala Lumpur as urban public transport sectors. It was based on the OSM image layer from the year 1990 to 2019 and studied the growth of railway networks through a polyline pattern analysis.

    Construction Sector Remains Challenging As the Federal Government Is Reviewing Ongoing Infrastructure Projects to Reduce Costs by 20-33%

    4 October 2018 Waiting for the other shoe to drop Sector Update The outlook for the Construction sector remains challenging as the federal government is reviewing ongoing infrastructure projects to reduce costs by 20-33%. Projects that could be affected include the Construction Klang Valley MRT Line 2 (MRT2) and LRT Line 3 (LRT3), Pan Borneo Highway (PBH) and Gemas-Johor Bahru Electrified Double Tracking (EDT). There are opportunities in state government projects in Penang and Sarawak. Maintain our NEUTRAL call. Top BUYs are IJM, Suncon Neutral (maintain) and HSS. Potential MRT2 cost cuts We gather that the MRT2 project could see a 25% reduction in cost to RM24bn from an initial estimate of RM32bn. The MMC Gamuda Joint Absolute Performance (%) Venture (JV) will be the most affected as it is the main contractor for the underground section and the Project Delivery Partner (PDP) for the above- 1M 3M 12M ground section of the MRT2. Other listed contractors that could be affected AQRS (6.4) (14.9) (37.9) due to ongoing work on above-ground packages secured include Ahmad Gamuda (10.0) 2.8 (37.1) HSS Eng 2.2 33.3 (9.5) Zaki, Gadang, George Kent, IJM Corp, MRCB, MTD ACPI, Mudajaya, IJM Corp (6.3) 1.7 (45.9) SunCon, TRC, TSR and WCT. Since the cost reductions will come from MRCB 0.7 15.8 (23.2) the reduction in the scope of works, we believe only the contract values will Suncon (0.4) (6.5) (37.4) be reduced while profit margins should be preserved.

During the second half of the year, however, the global economy lost some momentum, mainly on account of the increased trade frictions between the US and China, and the tightening of financial conditions. International Monetary Fund (IMF) expects growth to decelerate to 3.3% in 2019 and its projections suggest that all three major engines of the global economy, viz. US, China and Euro area are likely to decelerate in 2019. On the positive side, however, IMF expects world economic output to recover and grow at 3.6% in 2020. Of late, there have been a few growth-supportive factors such as the announcement of economic stimulus in China and halt to the process of monetary policy tightening in developed countries. But the business sentiment has become somewhat clouded with challenges arising from the apparent setback to the US-China trade talks, the spread Macroeconomic of trade frictions to technology sectors and the increased stability indicators intermingling of economic policies.

    Annual Report 2019-20 1 Board of Directors

    The Chairman’s Letter to Shareholders Dear Shareholder, Covid-19 and the associated lockdowns across countries have triggered a once-in-a-century crisis for the society and the economy in 2020. January now seems like a month of a bygone era — such has been the enormity of change. This is a defining period in human and business history: one that will test the resilience of individuals, societies, corporations, and nations. Given the fog of uncertainty all around, it is hard to be prescient in these times. But there is little doubt on one reality: companies with quality leadership, sound business fundamentals, and a track record of winning in turbulent times, will emerge as champions in the new global order. Global Economy It has been several months since the pandemic engulfed the world and yet there is a lot of uncertainty with respect to the extent of the economic contraction due to this crisis, and the subsequent pace of recovery. This year will see an economic contraction, but this 2020 recession is turning out very different from the past recessions. It has been too sudden – almost off the cliff; its spread has been all-encompassing – affecting almost every economy and sector, and the plunge in economic activity levels and employment has been unprecedented. On the positive side, this recession is likely to be one of the shortest, assuming no second wave of the pandemic recurs. As present lockdowns around As the world emerges the world get lifted, and businesses reopen, economic activity from the current is likely to bounce back fairly quickly.

(Smart), to leapfrog its digital leadership in the fast growing Cambodian telecommunications market.

Post-transaction, Axiata will continue to hold controlling and majority interest in Smart with 82.5% stake. The total transaction consideration of USD66 million is based on an equity value of USD724 million after factoring additional cash received from dividends as part of the transaction structure. Under the agreement, Axiata has also granted Mitsui a call option to acquire an additional 10% interest, exercisable within 12 months from the completion of the transaction. The transaction is expected to close by end-May 2017. The deal meets the Group’s portfolio management strategy and brings financial value for Axiata and its shareholders, with the proceeds intended for general corporate purposes and repayment of existing debt in its balance sheet. There are significant opportunities in digital services in Cambodia with Smart currently at the forefront. Mitsui’s position as a “Global Strategic Investor” is an ideal partner given its established track record of investing and partnering with companies across the telecom and technology value chain.
