Nowadays, we can see a lot of construction is happening all around us. There are multiple constructions for different things whether it is for a building or a public transport line. As civilians, we might be annoyed and disturbed by all the sounds and the traffic that the construction has caused us every day. But do you know? That the construction industry is really important especially in terms of economic growth. That is why there are many construction materials Malaysia because the demand in the construction industry has increasingly grown every year.
These are the importance of the construction industry to the country’s economic growth.
- Human’s development
The more constructions that are happening reflected that humans are evolving and becoming more civilized and modern. From the tall skyscraper to the fast bullet train that has existed for human use. All of these constructions are for humans to live life efficiently and for them to do their daily activities like going to work.
2. Investment
Big projects like building a highway or making an LRT railway, will need a huge construction and this will definitely take a lot of costs. A safe and efficient construction project usually will attract much foreign investment. Especially, after seeing some of the final construction projects they will be more confident to invest their money in our project. Making all of this big investment will be good for their business and also our economic growth.
3. Increase in tourism
The ‘Shinkasen’ also known as the bullet train in Japan is one of the fastest and well-known trains in the world. Many people travel to Japan just to experience the moment of riding the train and this has caused an increasement in Japan tourism. With the help of the construction industry, many beautiful skyscrapers like the Burj Khalifa and the Statue of Liberty existed and this attracts the interest of people all over the world to visit all of these buildings, statues, and public transport. Without the construction industry, all of these buildings wouldn’t exist thus no foreigner will be attracted to visit our country.
4. Job opportunities for everyone
The construction industries need a lot of manhandling in them and having an increased demand of construction industries will create many job opportunities for many people. Having a job opportunity will decrease the number of employees and civilians will be more productive. A lot of petty crimes will also decrease when they are employed and this will be great for the country’s development.
These are some reasons why the construction industry is important especially for economic growth. Without the construction industry, we will not be achieving all of these modern technologies and buildings. So, next time whenever you see a construction worker does not look down or disrespect them. Because without their help and hard work we will not have all of these things that are making our life easy and creating job opportunities for us at these skyscrapers.
