The construction reacts as important sectors in generating large income for people and revenue for the country. Therefore, FDI in construction sector can improve the quality of growth, and aid to achieving the goal of country development.

The empirical analysis of this study was performed by using econometric methods that is Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression which involved Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) unit root test, and diagnostic tests, Heteroscedasticity Test model and Breush-Godfrey Serial Correlation LM Test. Lastly, the findings of this research paper have an important policy implications and show that all these issue may still need further devotion in future research.
