Strengthening Long-Term Growth Across the Middle East
The Project is another feather in MGB’s cap as the company eyes more projects, as part of its strategy for broader regional expansion. Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Ir. (Dr.) Lim Hock San, JP, Group Executive Chairman of MGB Berhad, expressed his confidence in the Group’s growing international footprint:
