KUALA LUMPUR: Bina Puri Holdings Bhd, the country’s integrated civil and building construction services provider, has secured a RM128.5 million contract to construct a spa resort complex in Chendering Beach, Kuala Terengganu.
The proposed Movenpick Spa Resort project, to be completed in 22 months would be undertaken by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bina Puri Sdn Bhd.
The holdings company said the project, secured from Success Diar Sdn Bhd, involved the construction, supervision, testing and commissioning and completion of eight blocks of two-storey, three-storey and five-storey buildings, nine pavilions, a spa and a multi-purpose building and related facilities.
Group Managing Director Tan Sri Tee Hock Seng said he was proud of the group’s latest success as it marked the company’s return to Terengganu after a lapse of a decade.
In February 2002, Bina Puri successfully completed a road upgrading project from the Sultan Mansur roundabout to Kuala Berang stretch (package 2A) costing RM26.5 million.
“Our re-entry in Terengganu can only mean the group is prepared to expand and consolidate our business operations nationwide.
“With this contract, the group’s unbuilt book order stands at RM1.86 billion to date,” he said in a statement.
Tee added the group was confident of securing more projects in the upcoming year as it has been actively participating in both local and overseas tenders. -- BERNAMA
