Hong Kong and Macau are Asia’s most expensive construction markets: Turner & Townsend
The survey results from Turner & Townsend show that while the international development industry quiet faces obstacles, entire inflationary pressure is softening and stabilising amounts, easing assets flow towards essential overseas buildup industries such as data centres, health care, and production.
Hong Kong was the 9th most pricey construction field globally, with an average cost of US$ 4,500 ($ 6,083) per square metre (psm). Macau took on 12th place with a normal building and construction price of US$ 4,269 psm.
The report also suggested that a weaker Japanese Yen saw normal construction costs in the nation downtrend substantially this year. No Japanese urban areas remained in the top ten lineup of several costly construction sector in Asia.
Singapore’s construction industry was reasonably more moderate, clinching the 35th place on the worldwide list. Our average construction expense this year remains at about US$ 3,129 psm.
“Companies want to keep an eye on work. Typically, Asian work markets are known for high schedule and cheap wages, however as need expands for specialist construction such as enhanced manufacture and data centres, there might be bottlenecks of high-skilled workers in these fields,” claims Sumit Mukherjee, head of property, Asia, at Turner & Townsend.

Tokyo and Osaka are now the 13th and 17th most costly sector to build at US$ 4,127 psm and US$ 3,985 psm, specifically. The announcement mentions “strong international inflation, moderate post-pandemic financial development, and a substantial decline of the yen to a 34-year low, are major elements behind Japan’s lesser overall construction costs this year.”
A worldwide market research of the building and construction industry released by Turner & Townsend shares that Hong Kong and Macau are Asia’s most costly construction industry to construct this year.
Most global markets traced by Turner & Townsend show that an insufficiency of competent labour is the most substantial element increasing expense fee inflation throughout the construction markets.
