Salcon (RM0.52) - Earlier run up on water related counters this year drove its price to a high of RM0.67 before profit taking sent it tumbling back down again the past few weeks.

The company in recent years has been diversifying into the region, in particular China where they now operate 9 water and waste water concessions located in Shandong, Fujian, Zhejiang Prov and Jiangsu
