Explain double-digit rise in raw building materials, says Wee


PETALING JAYA: The government must explain the reason behind the double-digit rise in the prices of raw building materials if there has been no rise is cement prices, says MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong (pic).

"After checking the Producers Price Index report issued by the Statistic Department for November and December 2019, which is after reports of a rise in cement prices in October 2019, I found that the prices of raw building materials for the construction sector rose drastically for two months," he said in a Facebook post on Thursday (Feb 13)
