吕恩对拿督斯里阿斯利一行的到来表示感谢，对项目人员团结克服困难、推进复工达产表示肯定。他总结了当前马来西亚建筑企业面临的主要问题，一是人员短缺，技术人员的签证难以审批，当地外劳大量短缺；二是政府管制令（MCO）给项目造成了停工和延误，项目工期紧张；三是材料价格大幅上涨，额外增加的防疫支出给项目带来损失，对大部分建筑企业的正常运营带来显著影响。他强调，尽管马来西亚的建筑行业当前面临着众多困难，但是在CIDB的支持帮助下，中资建筑商依旧有信心克服困难，重振马来西亚建筑行业乃至于当地经济水平。
拿督斯里阿斯利表示，他曾经受邀赴中国参观过北京丽泽中心项目，中国先进的施工技术和高效的管理手段给他留下了深刻的印象，帝国公寓项目的“智慧工地”系统是中国建筑前沿建造技术的一个缩影，为项目建设提供了可视化、数据化、精益化的便利，值得马来西亚建筑行业学习和推广。对于马来西亚建筑行业当前面临的困难，他表示将进一步调查研究，向国家工程部和内阁提出相关建议。拿督斯里阿斯利表示将继续帮助建筑行业尽快完成疫苗接种，促成群体免疫。

Despite the challenges, Mr. Lyu En emphasized that with the support and help of CIDB, Chinese construction companies are still confident to overcome the difficulties and revitalize the construction industry in Malaysia and even the local economy.
Datuk Ir. Ahmad ‘Asri Abdul Hamid stated that he had been invited to China to visit a project and was impressed by the advanced construction technology and efficient management methods.
