Construction Decelerates
Businessmen,
construction and
commerce chambers, and
mayors agree that there
is a deceleration in the
construction sector,
mainly in the coastal
areas, even though the
employment figures do
not mirror such trend.
They reckon that the
arrival of new
investment has
decreased.
There are paralyzed
developments and the
demand for labor is
lower, signs that make
evident that the sector
is not doing well.
According to experts,
this is a consequence of
the mortgage crisis in
the United States, the
increased prices of
building materials, and
lower access to credit,
both locally and
internationally. |
