Malaysia: Cahya Mata Sarawak's (CMS) net profit jumped more than eight times to US$15.2m in the second quarter of 2017, from US$1.8m in the same quarter of 2016. The positive result was mainly due to lower handling costs, cheaper imported clinker and lower clinker production costs brought about by stable production and lower coal prices.
