    NATURAL rubber supplier Halcyon Agri Corporation is on track for a turnaround. The company recently announced it is set to record a profit after tax for FY2021 ended December versus a loss in FY2020, thanks to an overall improvement in business conditions, particularly the recovery of downstream industrial activities.

    Chief executive David Li told The Business Times in an interview that he "has confidence" that the profitability is sustainable, especially after the group refreshed its vision and mission to support sustainable growth.
