The Cahya Mata Sarawak (CMS) story is one of resolve and resilience, responsibility and respect. Under current management team, we have adopted a solid strategy for sustainable business growth, focusing on our core competencies of cement manufacturing, construction materials and trading, construction and road maintenance, property development and strategic investments in financial services and education as well as steel and pipe fabrication and installation.

As Sarawak moves into a new era of growth with the Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy (SCORE), CMS’s expansion is taking a new trajectory to take advantage of business investment opportunities in energy intensive industries and Sarawak’s infrastructure and related needs.
