KUALA LUMPUR (March 7): Bursa Malaysia had today issued an unusual market activity (UMA) query on the recent sharp rise in cement manufacturer Lafarge Malaysia Bhd's share price.

"We draw your attention to the sharp rise in price of your company’s shares recently," Bursa Malaysia told Lafarge today in a statement on Bursa Malaysia's website.
