The contract was awarded to the group’s wholly owned subsidiary, West River Engineering Sdn Bhd, which will be responsible for executing the required electrical installations.

According to the original publisher, the agreement was issued by China State Construction Engineering (M) Sdn Bhd. The scope of work specifically covers electrical services for a consumer landing station located within the SILC Industrial Area.
