  Yap said Melati Ehsan's construction division had been growing steadily over the years, even during the financial crisis, because of its ability to complete projects on time, within budget and often with little bank borrowings.
  
  Asked what was the secret to his success, he said: "Besides having a strong workforce with the expertise to deliver projects on time and within budget, it is important to maintain good cash flow."
  
  He said it was also important to develop a good working relationship with suppliers, institutional investors and financial institutions.
  
  "We have also been very cautious in selecting our projects," said Yap.

  He said there now appeared to be light at the end of the tunnel, with Proton being hopeful of sealing the deal by year-end.
  
  He noted that the Malaysian Government was also going all out to save the loss-making national car manufacturer by engaging in high-level talks with Volkswagen management.
  
  The analyst said top government officials had expressed optimism that the deal could be worked out soon.
  
  "The Volkswagen management in recent times has also expressed greater interest in wrapping up the deal," he said.
  
  He said Proton, while working on the Volkswagen deal, had not rested on its laurels and came out recently with a new car model, Persona, to stem its dwindling local market share (It went from a high of nearly a 60% share to slightly over 20% currently).
  
  "The Persona, launched several weeks ago, was well received by car buyers," he said, adding that Proton must come out with more "winning models" if it wanted to regain its market share locally.

  He said that for the first time in history, Malaysian Adex had exceeded the RM2bil mark in the first half of this year, registering a remarkable growth of 23.8% over that in the same period last year.
  
  "Despite market uncertainties, the year took off with a 22.6% growth in the first quarter followed by a record 24.9% increase in the second quarter," he said after a media presentation in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.
  
  The impressive Adex growth in the first half of 2004 was contributed mainly by increases in newspaper and terrestrial television advertising spending.
  
  Danyal added: "For the first time in years, terrestrial TV exceeded the growth rate of newspapers."
  
  He said the introduction of two new TV channels (8TV and Channel 9), coupled with the strong performance of most of the existing channels, had contributed substantially to growth, enabling total terrestrial Adex to chart growth of 39.7% year-on-year or RM167.8mil and increase market share to 28.6%.
