Soilbuild bags US$9.4m Myanmar contract

It’s for a shopping center’s addition, alteration works.

Soilbuild Construction has nabbed a build and design contract worth about US$9.4m, or $13.4m.

According to the company’s media release, as Soilbuild’s second contract in Myanmar, the US$9.4m deal is for the addition and alteration works of St. John Shopping Center in Yangon. It was awarded by a joint venture between two reputable companies in Myanmar, which have activities in retail and real estate development.

The work for St. John Shopping Center is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2016, and is to be completed within 8.5 months from the commencement.

Soilbuild notes that this project is not expected to materially impact the company’s net tangible assets and earnings per share for FY16.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
