Centurion looks to raise bed capacity amid dormitory supply crunch
Yong Jun Yuan
MAINBOARD-LISTED dormitory operator Centurion Corporation has been given the go-ahead to increase the bed capacity at its quick-build dormitory (QBD) sites, as supply remains tight.
Centurion Corporation chief executive Kong Chee Min said the company has received approval from JTC to add 888 more beds at its Westlite Jalan Tukang and Westlite Tuas Avenue 2 dormitories, two QBDs that began operations in 2021.
QBDs are temporary structures built during the pandemic to create additional bed space for migrant workers.
