Sembawang to build plant

SEMBAWANG Engineers & Constructors, a subsidiary of India-listed Punj Lloyd Group, said on Friday it will build a S$250 million plant in Brunei to make thin-film solar modules, its first foray into renewable energy.

'We have identified a cluster of 'green' businesses with good growth potential.' Richard Grosvenor, president and CEO of Sembawang Engineers and Constructors, said in a press release.

Sembawang is one of the largest engineering and construction companies in South-east Asia and is currently involved in the construction of the Marina Bay Sands and Resorts World intergrated resorts in Singapore. -- THOMSON REUTERS
