Recently, they also account for a great part of economic growth of the nation as a provider of foreign currency as there are many orders of overseas constructions by overseas expansion. Construction industries are based on such positive images while they are considered as negative images such as rough work, poor construction and 3D jobs. As they have influenced teenagers who decided their careers in construction industries, there are many issues such as the lack of young technical talented people and the evasion of having a career in construction industries.
