Sarawak Cable seeks boost

TNB supplier: Leader Cable, Sarawak Cable’s wholly-owned unit, has started to supply to TNB’s 500kV transmission line projects.

KUCHING: Sarawak Cable Bhd, one of the biggest cable makers in the region, is banking on a sharp increase in new orders from overseas and a steady flow of power projects in its home state to lift slumping sales.

As at the end of April, Sarawak Cable’s order book for power and telecommunications cables had already exceeded the RM500mil mark, according to group managing director and chief executive officer Aaron Toh Chee Ching.
