OPINION: I have low expectations of these upcoming national elections

Construction Professional Zuko Peter does not think the upcoming elections are likely to bring significant changes., but he believes it is crucial for the Construction and Built Environment (CBE) industry to voice its expectations because active participation in the elections is essential to address systemic issues. In my opinion, the upcoming national elections will not bring about significant changes compared to previous ones. Things are likely to remain the same or even worsen after the elections. Despite my low expectations, I believe it is crucial for the Construction and Built Environment (CBE) industry to voice its expectations. As industry professionals, we are being exploited by companies owned by politicians who prioritize self-enrichment. It is detrimental to our industry to be infiltrated by incompetent and unqualified individuals.
