Recently due to uncertainty in construction market, caused the share price drop from previous high 1.30 to current level 0.74++, the main impact is after the 509 election, most of the major construction is pull back by new government. I believed is a good time to collect, and build up Gadang share stage by stage with current PE 5.3 plus healthy balance sheet. On hand book order is enough to cover for next 2-3 financial year performance.
