Sabah
Kota Kinabalu
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kota Kinabalu, formerly known as Jesselton, is the capital of Sabah, a state in Malaysia, as well as the capital of the West Coast Division of Sabah. Located on the northwest coast of the island of Borneo facing the South China Sea and Tunku Abdul Rahman Park on one side, and with Mount Kinabalu in the background, Kota Kinabalu sprawls for kilometers along the coast and towards inland.

Kota Kinabalu, often simply known as K.K. within Malaysia, and to an extent, internationally, as a tourism getaway and a major gateway into Sabah and Borneo. Kinabalu National Park is located about 90 kilometres from the city, and besides this, it also features a number of tourist attractions in and around the city itself. The city is also one of the major industrial and commercial centers in East Malaysia. These two factors combine to make Kota Kinabalu one of the fastest growing cities in the country.[3]

Population (2007)

Malaysian Borneo Gateway
Kota Kinabalu International Airport
Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) is located about 8 km from the city of Kota Kinabalu, the state capital of Sabah, Malaysia. It is the second busiest airport in Malaysia after Kuala Lumpur International Airport with around 4 million passengers using this airport annually for domestic and international flights. It is also the main gateway into the state of Sabah. In 2006, about 2 million unique tourists visited Sabah, and it is estimated that this number will exceed 2.5 million by the end of 2007.

Kuching International Airport (KIA)
The Kuching International Airport (KIA) has long been overlooked by many. Despite being the third largest airport in Malaysia, this airport seems to be rather underutilized after the Malaysian air rationalisation.

Labuan
Federal Territory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://img29.picoodle.com/img/img29/4/6/10/f_02m_bc3ebbe.jpg

Labuan is the main island of the Malaysian Federal Territory of Labuan. Labuan is best known as an offshore financial centre and a tourist destination for nearby Bruneians and scuba divers. The name Labuan derives from the Malay word labuhan meaning anchorage.

Population
The population of 78,000 (est. 2000) is mostly Malay, with minorities of Chinese, Kedayans, Filipinos, Indians, Bugis, Bajau and Expatriates.

The Malaysian government's attempts to turn Labuan into an international banking centre has had only limited success, but the government still offers incentives to try to lure in new investors. With land utilization geared more towards property and industrial use, there is little agricultural activity. Most of the island's prime land, waterfront and suburbs are utilised for residential and tourism development. A sizeable area on the southwestern side of the island is occupied by shipbuilding, manufacturing and oil and gas industries. Within recent decades Labuan has undergone significant improvements in infrastructure and services.

http://img45.imageshack.us/img45/527/5868yp.jpg

Labuan International Airport
Labuan Airport is an airport that serves Labuan in Malaysia. The airport is 8 km from Labuan. It was planned for Labuan Airport to be a regional hub for connecting flights within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) but this plan was postponed due to logistics and unsuitability. At present, this airport is being expanded to accommodate larger aircraft such as the Boeing 777 and the Airbus A330, with 3 aerobridges. In 2005, the airport handled 642,582 passengers and 9,292 aircraft movements, though the airport is able to handle over 1.2 million passengers per year.

Raziah heads Borneo Isthmus Development
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

KUCHING: Datuk Raziah Mahmud-Geneid has been appointed as chairman of Borneo Isthmus Development Sdn Bhd.

The recently formed company will be involved in the management and operation of the new Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK), said in a press statement yesterday.

Meanwhile, Trevor McCartney was appointed as BCCK chief executive. McCartney is highly-experienced in the management of convention centres.

He was formerly the director of international sales and operations at Pattaya Exhibition and Convention Hall (Thailand), Edinburgh International Conference Centre, the International Convention Centre (Birmingham) and the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre (London).

Apart from his broad international convention centre experience, he also provided consultancy services for projects in Hong Kong and Dublin.

The state-of-the-art BCCK is developed on a six hectare riverfront site in Kuching at the cost of RM200 million and scheduled to be opened in June 2009.

The centre, which is the first dedicated convention and exhibition centre on Borneo Island, has a gross floor area of 36,500 square metres and is still under construction.

Once completed, it will be able to accommodate up to 5,000 people in a plenary session or 2,000 for a banquet.

The venue will be part of the development at the Isthmus that will feature a marina, office, hotel and residential accommodation, complemented by other retail and leisure outlets.

Riveria Square

http://fh2o.kuchingkayak.com/uploaded_images/aemOverallPerspectiveDec07-745564.jpg

The upcoming Riveria Square is a landmark commercial development breaking away from the mould of the typical ‘shophouse’ commercial development in Kuching offering something new and unique.

With a kilometer long water’s edge walk along Sungai Kuap for recreation, shopping and entertainment provided for by arcade shops; it brings to Kuching the kind of waterfront shopping experience one can only previously get overseas such as Sydney’s Darling Harbour and San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf. At a short 5 minutes from Tabuan Jaya, it’s destined to be the next “most happening” place in Kuching.

The first phase with with 29 units of 3 to 4 storey shophouses very competitively priced from RM718,888/- was launched on the weekend with each and every block enjoying either main road or waterfront promenade frontage. Now Everyone Has A Frontage!

This is truly a landmark development worthy of your investment and something Kuching can really be proud of.

http://i342.photobucket.com/albums/o417/cth2206/kkia3h.jpg

Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) (IATA: BKI, ICAO: WBKK) is located about 8 km from the city of Kota Kinabalu, the state capital of Sabah, Malaysia. It is the second busiest airport in Malaysia after Kuala Lumpur International Airport with around 4 million passengers using this airport annually for domestic and international flights. It is also the main gateway into the state of Sabah. In 2006, about 2 million unique tourists visited Sabah, and it is estimated that this number will exceed 2.5 million by the end of 2007.

Terminal 1
Terminal 1 is the main terminal of KKIA. It is accessed via Jalan Putatan in Petagas nearby Kepayan. Currently its technical facilities includes 12 gates, 5 airbridges, and 4 baggage claim belts. It has the capacity of handling 2.5 million passenger annually. It also features duty-free shops, other shops, lounges, travel agents, restaurants, and many others. It is currently undergoing a massive renovation and expansion (see above). Malaysia Airlines is the main operating airline in this terminal.

Terminal 2
What is today Terminal 2 used to be the original terminal building of the airport when it was first built. It is accessed via Jalan Mat Salleh in Tanjung Aru and is located on the other side of the runway from Terminal 1. Terminal 2 has recently undergone a major renovation and extension and it re-opened on January 1, 2007 in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007. Although it is renovated to serve the low cost carriers, namely AirAsia, it is not a low cost carrier terminal (LCCT) as that of Kuala Lumpur International Airport, as other full service airlines may use the terminal.[6] It has 26 check-in counters for domestic and international flights and six parking bays for B737 and A320 aircraft as well as seven luggage x-ray machines, a VIP room and 13 immigration counters. AirAsia will make Kota Kinabalu the main hub for flights from China to Malaysia due to Kota Kinabalu being the nearest Malaysian hub to China.

AirAsia is expected to start flying to Shenzen, Xiamen, Hong Kong, Vietnam and Indonesia in 2007. Sabah Government is optimistic in targeting more visitors from Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, South Korea, Japan and Russia.

d' Banyan Residency @ Sutera, located in the heart of Sutera Harbour Resort is set to become the benchmark for prestigious luxury living with a touch of class in Kota Kinabalu City. "We are revolutionising the very concept of plush contemporary living balanced by the tranquility of Sabah's natural evergreen splendour," enthused General Manager of WCT Land Berhad, Stewart Tew.

"With a virtually 360 panorama of the golf scenery viewable from every balcony, d' Banyan luxury designer homes is in a distinct class of its own," Tew Added.

Some may wonder where the name originates from and it would seem that d' Banyan Residency draws it namesake from the humble banyan tree. "We have adopted the Banyan story as it tells a tale of centuries old where people from all walks of life congregated under the banyan tree to share news and views. This is the type of community we hope to inspire - tight knit and integrated with a strong sense of belonging," Tew explained.

This concept of integration has been translated into reality at d' Banyan Residency @ Sutera. Strategically located 5 mins from KK City and 10 mins from the KK International Airport, d' Banyan Residency resides in a restful cove within Sutera. The 122 units of 3 Storey Detached Villa, 2 Storey Semi-Detached Villa and as well as the 2 Storey Superlink Villa homes are a testimony of architectural perfection finished appeal to the stringent requirements of the upper class market.

Price between Ringgit Malaysia 1.4 million to 3 million and above with a build up area of 4,350 s.f to 6,700 s.f, the three contemporary designs of sheer luxury exude charm, privacy and exclusivity. d' Banyan is indeed a celebration of life and style and one can definitely expect a 5 star lifestyle befitting the 5 star location.

d' Banyan Residency is unique in the sense that it caters for all the needs and desires of the truly affluent. From private swimming pools in designed units and solar water heating system to split air-conditioner as well as food waste disposal are provided, no stone has been left unturned in the concerted effort to maximise comfort and pleasure. With such luxuriant surroundings, you can also be assured that security issues are never comprised as every precautionary measure has been employed.

The Residency is armed with double security check points, perimeter fencing equipped with CCTV surveillance system linked directly to the guard house, all of which cultivates ultimate peace of mind.

The official launch is expected to only take place in July 2008 yet current sales have already proven to be good. Under the detailed touch of WCT's subsidiary Camellia Tropicana Sdn. Bhd's management team, construction of d' Banyan Residency is well underway. In fact, it is ahead of schedule with piling works completing soon while other units have even completed foundation works.

d' Banyan is expected to be completed by end of 2009.

Buyers wishing to get an initial feel of the stunning ambience can pay a visit to the Semi-Detached and Superlink show houses expected to be ready for viewing with full interior design come July this year.

Those who are financially savvy will note that the prime time to buy is now, as trends denote that the market price will increase upon completion of the show houses and because of the increase of building materials prices.

Currently, the Sale and Purchase Agreement legal fees are borne by the developer so it would be financially astute to purchase now and enjoy this benefit.

Tew added that d' Banyan Residency is looking into luring foreign property investors into making d' Banyan their home. WCT will market d' Banyan comprehensively overseas, while highlighting the Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) programme as a viable retirement option in this country.

WCT has made purchasing these villas easier by providing full customer services. Locals and foreigners alike can enjoy assistance in documentation processes and mortgage financing prospects in association with various local banks.

d' Banyan Residency @ Sutera is a jewel of an investment. It would be deemed highly perceptive to set aside this diamond of a property as part of your personal investment portfolio with full intention to bank on the future.

All villas are constructed of natural materials throughout, sitting in their own private manicured gardens, with spectacular natural stone swimming pool. Guests staying at the Kudat Riviera are provided with their own private butler, always on hand to ensure an effortless and perfect vacation.

Designed to be as flexible and interesting as possible, dining at The Kudat Riviera will suit all guest requirements imaginable. Upon check-in your fully-equipped villa kitchen can be stocked before your arrival with all of the comforts of home, as well as a wide array of wines, champagnes, soft drinks and complimentary tea and coffee. Your butler can then arrange for items to be delivered to your villa daily to include fresh seafood and international imported food and beverages. This enables you to have snacks or meals on hand whenever you would like. Your butler is happy to cook you breakfast in the morning and for lunch and dinner you can pop over to the Atmosphere Nautique Floating Restaurant, Rustique Restaurant or the Caviar Sky Lounge for scrumptious meals or enjoy excellent meals prepared in your own residence. Order and pay for as much or as little as you would like.

If you're in need of an energizing experience, there are boundless activities and adventures to choose from here.

Kudat Riviera reaps international awards

Kudat Riviera, a high-end villa development in Sabah by Exquisite Borneo Villas (EBV), won two prizes at this year’s International Property Awards, which was held in conjunction with CNBC. Kudat Riviera took five-star awards in both the Development and Architecture (multi-unit) and categories for Malaysia.

Now in their 13th year, the awards were presented by the BBC’s former Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond at a gala dinner in London’s Grosvenor Square. An estimated 400 property professionals representing 56 countries gathered as results were announced for 100 awards across 20 categories.

The publicity surrounding Kudat Riviera, which also features in International Homes’ ‘World’s Best’ collection, has helped put Sabah and Malaysian Borneo on the map for international investors looking for an exclusive exotic home.

“The International Property Awards highlight that Kudat Riviera’s exclusive properties are among the best in the world,” said Phil Dobson, EBV’s founder and Managing Director. “The Kudat Riviera blends the tranquillity of the Caribbean, the karma and mystique of Bali and the exotic traditions and warmth of Borneo. It offers a deluxe villa lifestyle among unspoilt beaches with easy access to Sabah’s beauty and diversity.”

The Nexus Residence,
Kota Kinabalu, SABAH

source (http://www.propertyfrontiers.com/International-Real-Estate/Country/Malaysia/Sabah/Nexus-Residence.aspx)
http://www.clairebrownrealty.com/images/nexus-area.jpg

Location
Just 25 minutes from the Kota Kinabalu International Airport, flights to major South East Asian capitals such as Singapore and Hong Kong are just 3 hours away whilst Tokyo, Shanghai and Sydney are within a 5-6 hour flight. Affectionately referred to as the ‘Land Below the Wind’ Sabah lies outside the hostile ‘Ring of Fire’ and the threats of plate tectonics at 1°-5°Latitude North. Bordered by a verdant 130m year old rainforest, Nexus Residence also surveys the alluring coastline of the South China Sea, a 6km expanse of soft white sands and beautiful waters.

Description
One of the world’s best kept secrets, Karambunai is a tranquil haven in stunning Sabah on the island of Borneo. Sabah Tourism Board maintains that with the very high occupancy figure of 72%, the area still has a severe holiday bed shortage of 3000. What is more, Sabah has one of the highest tourism growth rates in Malaysia and reaped the benefits of 1.8 million tourist arrivals in 2004 which equated to a 41.7% growth over 2003. Target tourist arrivals in Sabah for 2010 sit at 4 million, meaning demand for holiday property should simultaneously rocket. With Nexus’s 7.25% 5 year guaranteed income structure in place the resort promises great returns and should enjoy significant capital appreciation as the tourism market flourishes around it.

i-Bhd unveils data centre park in i-City

PETALING JAYA: I-Bhd’s i-City set another milestone with the launch of Data Centre Park, one of the largest data centre space providers in a single location in Malaysia, yesterday.

Speaking at the launch of the Data Centre Park, Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Datuk Dr Maximus Ongkili said data centres represented one of the fastest growing segments in Malaysia’s information and communications technology industry.

“Demand for data centre services in Malaysia is forecast to be worth more than US$150mil. Data centre capacity in the region is forecast to increase by 68% by 2013,” he said, adding that the private sector was encouraged to participate actively in the government initiative on cybercentre development.

The RM2bil i-City in Shah Alam received MSC Cybercentre status last May.

Ongkili said companies operating in i-City would be able to reduce their cost of operations by 33% because of its technology infrastructure and office services.

“In fact, we are looking at how i-City can be the benchmark for future cybercentres in the country,” he said.

Designed for data centre service providers and large organisations planning to build their own data centre buildings, the park has the capacity to host up to four centres with a combined floor space of 200,000 sq ft.

Kompakar, Malaysia’s leading data centre provider, will be the operator.

'Expo city' will make Iskandar trading hub
By Ahmad Fairuz Othman

Asia Pacific Trade and Expo City (APTEC)

ISKANDAR Malaysia in Johor is set to become a major trading hub in the region for manufacturers and buyers once a permanent one-stop exposition, trade and distribution centre near Pasir Gudang is completed in five to seven years.

Called the "Asia Pacific Trade and Expo City" (APTEC), it is located within the RM6.6 billion township of Lakehill Resort City, which is being developed by Malaysia Pacific Corp Bhd (MPCB).

Once completed, APTEC will have a built-up gross floor area of about 4 million sq ft, occupying a land area of 9.4ha.

MPCB president and chief executive officer Datuk Bill Ch'ng said APTEC would become a centre for manufacturers of all sizes to showcase their products to international buyers.

"Buyers will come to the hub just like in a department store. These buyers will be retailers and wholesalers.

"The hub will be the centre to supply goods for the regional market, and allow buyers from all over the world to source their products here," said Ch'ng after attending the launch of the Iskandar Malaysia Open Day in Johor yesterday.

Manufacturers who set up their base in APTEC will promote their products to buyers from Southeast Asia, India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the Middle East.

Ch'ng said potential manufacturers at APTEC would be selected based on the potential of their products or services.

They include manufacturers of goods such as electronics, fashion, home appliances and foodstuff.

Investors and traders will also find accommodation and recreation at the Lakehill Resort City to complement their business dealings.

Other attractions in the development include a six-star lakeside resort, factory outlet stores, a heritage and cultural village, a thematic restaurant located on top of a rock formation and other international bistros and cafes.

The Iskandar Malaysia Open Day provided a good platform for the organiser
and exhibitors to brief visitors on the progress of their respective projects.

http://johor.nst.com.my/Wednesday/Stories/2571991/insidepix3?display=small

The skyscrapers and modern architecture attracted the attention of many.

THE Iskandar Malaysia Open Day which was held in Johor Baru recently was an eye-opener for all. "All" includes not just the visitors alone but also the organiser and exhibitors. The look of disbelief and wonder etched in the faces of visitors as they toured from booth to booth viewing the impressive models on display would not have gone unnoticed by the organiser and exhibitors.

But probably more shocking were the questions posed, which revealed how ignorant some visitors were on Iskandar Malaysia or Johor in general.

When I asked a friend manning the Port of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP) booth about the public response at the end of the three-day event, he replied, "Many asked me what is PTP?"

I burst into laughter. Maybe the PTP acronym has too many references, or maybe nobody knew about PTP at all. So, who is to be blamed for asking such a question?

In another corner, I overheard a person asking: "Is this another Mapex (Malaysia Property Exhibition)?"

Well, I could forgive him for asking that question. After all, I got the same impression, judging from the decorations at the Johor Baru City Square atrium. There were two to three developers capitalising on the Open Day to promote their products.

So, the organiser and exhibitors must be having a tough time briefing visitors on what Iskandar Malaysia is all about.

The Iskandar Regional Development Authority showcased an eyecatching model of the futuristic Danga Bay waterfront with its state-of-the-art high-rise buildings and marina.

I, for one, couldn't take my eyes off this dazzling model of glass buildings with its glittering lights.

I couldn't help noticing the looks of disbelief written on the faces of the visitors. Some felt that they might not live long enough to see the model turning into reality.

For me, the timeline for completion of Iskandar Malaysia is just too long. Maybe I would have retired by the time the buildings come up.

The Open Day was not just meant for adults. The organiser had painstakingly set aside a corner for children to play with Lego blocks.

Obviously, this was to promote and provide a good preview of the upcoming Legoland theme park in Nusajaya for children.

But by then the children would have grown up and the Legoland no longer suitable for them.

I am not sure if the Open Day attracted the intended crowd of traders, entrepreneurs and investors. It would be sad if the visitors were just window shoppers.

Nevertheless, the exhibition was well-planned, judging from the great lengths exhibitors went to impress the crowd.

The unveiling of Iskandar Malaysia

Berhad president and chief executive officer Arlida Ariff, state Housing, Local
Government and Public Amenities Committee chairman Ahmad Zahri Jamil and
Irda chief executive officer Harun Johari at the launch of the Iskandar
Malaysia open day.

For the first time ever, the public were shown what their future will be like in the growth corridor, writes AHMAD FAIRUZ OTHMAN

THE Iskandar Regional Development Authority (Irda) held its first ever Open Day for three days at Johor Baru City Square.

About 50,000 visitors, most of them living and working in Iskandar Malaysia, turned up. Many were curious to know about the opportunities available in business, leisure, education and housing in the area that had been earmarked for growth and development.

They browsed through the 30 booths there and met with representatives from Irda and related agencies such as Iskandar Investment Bhd, UEM Land Bhd, Johor Corporation, MSC Cyberport Sdn Bhd and Senai Airport Terminal Services.

Irda human capital senior vice-president, Nor Hisham Hussein, said the event was held to explain the impact the Iskandar Malaysia plan would have on the public.

Previously, Irda had organised two promotional events but those were only for investors and the media.

"This is our first attempt to meet with the public. This exhibition is not only about property but also things that will affect them in general," said Nor Hisham on the last day of the event.

Among the companies that had a booth in the exhibition was Malaysia Pacific Corporation Bhd.

It offered a preview of the mixed township development project known as Lakehill Resort City.

Located near Pasir Gudang, the project includes building the Asia Pacific Trade and Expo City (APTEC), which will turn Iskandar Malaysia into a major trading hub.

"APTEC will create a tremendous multiplier affect in terms of job opportunities," said Malaysia Pacific Corporation Bhd president and chief executive officer, Bill Ch'ng, who estimated that no less than 70,000 jobs would be created.

Ch'ng said Mara had also showed interest in collaborating with a university to open a campus in Lakehill Resort City. The campus would offer courses in information technology and hospitality.

Another person who shared Ch'ng's optimism was Amanahraya-JMF Asset Management Sdn Bhd deputy chairman, Datuk Ahmad Kamal Al-Yafii. The company is a shareholder in the Lakehill Resort City project.

He said all projects in Iskandar Malaysia would have a spillover affect on surrounding areas.

"The APTEC trade centre would encourage the growth of transport companies and small businesses."

The event also attracted property buyers from Singapore. Singaporean businessman Manjit Singh, 47, praised the organisers for providing useful information.

Manjit, who lives in Yishun, had read about Iskandar Malaysia in newspapers and was impressed with the housing developments in the growth region.

"I have yet to decide as I want to gather more information, but I think the open day is a good idea because it gives a chance for people like me to see what Iskandar has to offer," said Manjit.

Housing project exhibitor, A. Raju, said more than half of the visitors at his company's booth were those living in Iskandar Malaysia.

"Most of them are owners of single-storey houses in areas such as Taman Scientex near Pasir Gudang.

"When they see the models of the houses and various facilities that are being built, they become interested.

"Many of them want to 'upgrade' to bigger houses," Raju said.

Good response to Iskandar Malaysia open day
By MOHD FARHAAN SHAH

JOHOR BARU: The Iskandar Malaysia open day, held for the first time on a large scale attracted a large crowd as many wanted to see the plans and future development within the mammoth project.

Besides locals, it also attracted foreigners including Singaporeans.

Local construction worker Kong Thien Loi, 56, said the development of Iskandar Malaysia would be good for Johoreans.

“With the kind of investment coming in, it will create jobs here and it will benefit the economy as well.

“The establishment of EduCity with the Newcastle University of Medicine (NUMed) Malaysia will give the students here an opportunity to study locally.

Student Mohd Yusof Mohd Razif, 18, believes that Iskandar Malaysia would not only attract investors but tourists as well.

“When Legoland is complete, I think that it will be the main tourist attraction not only in Johor but also in the country.

“It will attract local tourists and foreigners to stay in Johor longer instead of just passing through on their way to the north,” he said.

Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) lecturer Muhammad Imzan Hassan, 33, believes that Iskandar Malaysia would put Malaysia, especially Johor, on the world map.

“But I think that the marketing needs to be more aggressive to attract foreign investors.

“The open day gives people a chance to see what they are planning for Iskandar Malaysia,” he said, adding that this was the first time there was such a large scale exhibition showcasing the event.

Another visitor Christine Teo, 40, hopes that the development of Iskandar Malaysia would not be just all talk.

“Hopefully, the government is not over ambitious and I hope this project goes on smoothly, she said.

Retiree Mohamad Ismail Selamat, 63, who is a Singaporean, described the project as a great achievement for Malaysia.

Giving info: The Johor Fire and Rescue Department operations commander C. Kesaven (right) explaining the equipment to visitors.

“With the investors coming in and the tall buildings in Iskandar Malaysia, it will change the landscape in Johor.

“But the important thing is to keep the area within Iskandar Malaysia clean because if you do not maintain cleanliness, it will chase away investors,” he said.

Ismail added that Iskandar Malaysia would serve as a win-win project for both Malaysia and Singapore as both countries were located next to each other.

Another visitor, car salesman G. Suresh, 40, hoped that the project would mirror similar projects in Dubai.

“With the state government moving to Nusajaya, I also hope emphasis will be made to ensure Johor Baru continues to be vibrant,” he said.

A total of 50,000 people took part in the three-day event themed “A Vision for All” recently.

The exhibition featured participation from more than 15 partners of Iskandar Malaysia including Johor State Investment Centre (JSIC), Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) and Malaysian Industrial Development Authority (MIDA).

Iskandar Investment Berhad (IIB), UEM Land Berhad, Johor Corp, Port of Tanjung Pelepas, Senai Airport, MSC Cyberport, the police and fire and rescue department also took part.

Lending a helping hand: An Iskandar Regional Development Authority employee (left) assisting a visitor to sign up for the Safe Home Campaign.

Besides the exhibition, there were other activities such as cultural performances including Indian Folk and Bollywood Dance Show, Chinese Wushu Dance Show and Malay Cultural Dance Show.

There were also clowns, puzzle games and Lego challenges for children.

Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) chief executive officer Harun Johari described the response as very encouraging.

“We are very happy with the response this time around and I believe that we have been able to meet our objective of creating higher awareness among the public on Iskandar Malaysia,” added Harun.

Besides exhibitions and activities, visitors also took the opportunity to sign up for the Safe Home Campaign, which is being held during the school holidays until June 14.

Housewife Rosnita Osman, 57, said the Safe Home Campaign would benefit the community as it allowed folk to get to know their neighbours better.

Lorry driver P. Mahendran, 47, said this was the first time he had heard about the campaign and hoped the police would continue patrolling their neighbourhood even after the campaign.

The Safe Home Campaign is jointly organised by the state police, IRDA, Danga City Mall and The Star.

I-Bhd to offer IT solutions to others

Seri Kong Cho Ha looking at a model of i-City after the launch of the iO2
system Tuesday.

SHAH ALAM: I-Bhd, the developer of i-City commercial project, is looking to offer its digital technology solutions to other developments in the region.

Speaking at the launch of the I-Office Squared (iO2) system yesterday, chairman Tan Sri Hamad Kama Piah Che Othman said this would be a technology-based income for the company.

“I-Bhd will have another revenue stream to complement the one from property development when this roll-out is fully operational,” he said.

The system was launched by Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Seri Kong Cho Ha.

Hamad said tenants at i-City would be offered a range of built-in facilities and services that would enable them to lower operational costs.

I-Bhd has teamed up with Cisco and Australia-based Servcorp to set up a joint-venture, i-Office2 Sdn Bhd, to provide managed services to i-City and other property projects in the country.

The iO2 is a multi-tenant managed service system. The key tenant service offerings include high-speed Internet access, IP telephony and unified communications, wireless/mobility solutions, network and physical security and control over their office environments.

I-Bhd CEO Eu Hong Chew said the company would focus on local markets for its technology solutions services before venturing into other countries in the region.

“We will probably have the first roll out of the iO2 system beyond i-City by early next year,” he told StarBiz in a phone interview.

He said I-Bhd was looking to either invest and provide its solutions to projects undertaken by other developers or license the products to them.

'P. Harbour can go on without new investor'
Published: 2009/07/01

UEM Land Holdings Bhd can develop Puteri Harbour, the water front development of Nusajaya project, without a new investor after the deal with Damac Properties (M) Sdn Bhd has fallout.

"When we signed with Damac one third of the project was still under water. Now, half of it has been reclaimed and will be ready with infrastructure such as roads and drains by end of the year.

"All was done using internal funds," said UEM Land chief executive officer Wan Abdullah Wan Ibrahim said on the sidelines of Invest Malaysia 2009 today. The company's gearing is at 0.35 times.

UEM Land's agreement with Damac for the RM397 million sale of 43 acres in Puteri Harbour lapsed as Damac had failed to resolve issues relating to the conditions of the purchase agreement within the agreed period.

Wan Abdullah said that although Puteri Harbour development could proceed, it needed a partner to create critical mass.

UEM Land already have four to five new interested parties, local and foreign namely Australia and Singapore, and everything could be finalised by year end, he said.

Asked whether the price would be similar to the Damac deal, he said: "We will not bring the price down. The only way the price is going is up."

The high end land is priced at RM250 per sq ft while the average is RM205 per sq ft now, he said.

Going forward, he said UEM Land would launch a development in Cyberjaya with gross development value of RM1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2009. "It is a high end development," he said.

UEM Land was also in the process of securing RM354 million syndicated term loan from two local banks for working capital. - Bernama

UEM Land: Nusajaya project completion on track
By SHANNEN WONG
2 Jul 2009

KUALA LUMPUR: UEM Land Bhd is confident of completing the construction of its three buildings in Nusajaya, Iskandar Malaysia, by year-end despite the withdrawal of its major partner, Damac Properties (M) Sdn Bhd.

Managing director Wan Abdullah Wan Ibrahim said the company would also increase the price of its 43-acre waterfront development in Nusajaya to RM250 per sq ft from RM205 previously.

“Before the end of this year, three buildings will be ready in Nusajaya. However, we can’t reveal who will be the owners of the buildings until the agreements are signed,” he said.

UEM Land will be completing the construction of its family entertainment centre, a four-star hotel and an apartment block fronting the marina despite the withdrawal of its Dubai-based partner.

However, Wan Abdullah said the company still needed new investments to create the critical mass and businesses for the new development.

“We need investors to create the critical mass and excitement. Nonetheless, we believe investors will have more confidence to invest in Nusajaya once these three buildings are up,” he said.

The company is in talks with potential local and overseas developers, including from Australia and Singapore, to take over Damac’s place.

“We are also actively making new contacts with other parties,” said Wan Abdullah.

Last month, UEM Land announced that its agreement with Damac for the RM396mil sale of 43.5 acres in Puteri Harbour, Nusajaya, had lapsed.

On the potential transaction value of the property, he said: “We will not bring the price down, for sure. The only way for the price to go is up.

“This time, we will be a bit smarter. We will look into the funding element before we start a partnership. That’s going to be a major issue for us, especially in current times.”

Meanwhile, UEM Land is working out a RM354mil syndicated term loan with two banks for its working capital.

“The banks’ managements have forwarded it to the credit committee and we should know (the results) in a few weeks,” he said.

Currently, UEM Land has a land bank of 11,000 acres.

NEWCASTLE UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT IN MALAYSIA

http://biz.thestar.com.my/archives/2009/5/11/business/b_pg04jordan.jpg

British varsity to make Iskandar leading hub

JOHOR BARU: Even if you're way past your university-going days, there could be one thing which could inspire you to go back to school.

The problem is that the "one thing" will only be ready in about 10 years so you'll just have to wait, or send your children there instead.

Education is set to go truly international once EduCity, Iskandar Malaysia's exciting educational hub, is completed by 2018.

The 123.4 hectare project under Iskandar Investment Berhad (IIB) will feature eight faculties each renowned for their medicine, hospitality, engineering, creative multimedia, creative arts and business faculties.

Khairil Anwar Ahmad, IIB's senior vice-president of education and healthcare, said EduCity promises to be a vibrant and exciting place once it is completed as education is a major component of Iskandar Malaysia's comprehensive development plan formulated by Khazanah Nasional.
"Whenever investors come, the first thing they ask is, 'Where are the schools for our children and where are the healthcare facilities for the family?'

"Education is one of the pillars of the comprehensive development plan and our vision for EduCity is for it to become an international education destination," Khairil said at a recent interview.

Construction within EduCity itself has already begun, with drainage work beginning ahead of schedule while Bandar Nusajaya, where EduCity is situated, already has the necessary infrastructure.

EduCity has been envisaged as a dynamic atmosphere where students can mingle and get a tertiary education in an international environment.

The eight faculties, each from different international universities, will be placed in one area where they will share a common library and an "International Village" which has hostels, cafeterias, shops and recreational facilities.

Khairil estimates that 12,000 students will be enrolled when EduCity is completely ready in 10 years.

The faculty for the Newcastle University of Medicine Malaysia (NUMed) will be completed by 2011 and ready to admit students in September 2011.

NUMed, with which IIB signed a definitive agreement with on Nov 20, this year, is the only medical school outside of the United Kingdom recognised by the British Medical Council.

"Our universities are selected based on the best in class principle -- they may not be among the Top 10 universities in the world, but they're very strong for the particular faculty that we're looking at for EduCity.

"For example, the University of Newcastle's medical school is ranked fourth in the United Kingdom."

The other faculties have signed MoUs with IIB and will be revealed in due time Khairil said, adding that negotiations have already begun with a top UK engineering faculty and a prestigious Swiss hospitality school.

The most obvious plus point about EduCity, Khairil added, is that its universities will offer degrees identical to those in their home campuses, but at substantially lower cost.

"The government, for instance, spends RM1.2 million to send one medical student to the UK but at NUMed, it will only cost RM600,000."

The cheaper price tag would hopefully attract parents from the Middle East, Indonesia, China and India. EduCity would also provide multiplier economic effects for locals as there will be a demand for bookstores, catering and laundry services.

Academic staff for the institutions will be a mix of local and foreign lecturers, Khairil said.

Apart from tertiary education, EduCity will also include a selection of well-known international schools one of which is the Cempaka International School, an international boarding school for boys.

Police To Start Safety Plans For I-City Early
July 07, 2009 21:13 PM

http://www.utusan.com.my/pix/2009/0708/Utusan_Malaysia/Kota/wk_04.1.jpg

SHAH ALAM, July 7 (Bernama) -- Selangor police hope to implement an advance plan to ensure the safety of residents and workers at the upcoming I-City development in Section 7 here.

Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar said the city, being developed on a 29-hectare site, complete with information and communication technology, will have about 50,000 residents when completed in 2015.

He added that since work on a 2.4-hectare site from the total area of the project, expected to be cost RM2 billion, had already started with about 200 workers on site, safety measures need to be introduced early.

"We need to start planning from now since we were made to understand that a site has been allocated to build a police station within the city," he told reporters after being briefed of the project during his visit to the site here Tuesday.

He said the exact location of the I-City police station and how it will be build, would be discussed with the developer, I-Bhd.

Khalid in welcoming the initiative by the developer to provide facilities, said the funds to build the police station will be the responsibility of the Federal government.

He added that I-Bhd deputy chief executive chairman Datuk Lim Kim Hong had informed him that they (I-Bhd) would donate a van to be used as a temporary mobile police station.

To ensure safety at the I-City site, police will beef up patrol in the area and connect the closed circuit television (CCTV) that had been installed at the site to the Shah Alam police station, he said.

Khalid said once the project was completed, police hope to introduce a "Community Policing" programme that will allow residents to assist the police in combating crime.

The I-City project when completed will be equipped with fiber optic cables, a data centre, office blocks, recreation area, restaurants and a park for workers and visitors.

Two companies set up to implement Iskandar projects
2009/07/11

PUTRAJAYA: Two special purpose vehicles (SPVs) have been formed to implement a housing development project in Nusajaya and transform Johor Baru Central Business District (CBD) in Iskandar Malaysia. The decisions were made during the sixth meeting of the Iskandar Regional Development Authority members and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, who is also co-chairman of Irda, and Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman, at the prime minister's office yesterday.

In a statement, Iskandar Malaysia said the authority approved the establishment of a SPV, a holding company, that will implement public housing projects in Iskandar at a cost of RM200 million. It will include 1,500 units of quality rental houses with improved public facilities to cater to low- and medium-income groups.

It also said the project, which would be a showcase of new implementation of public housing in Iskandar, will also provide 31/2- to four-storey walk-up apartments with a built-up space of 900 sq ft.

The project will be developed on a 24ha land in Nusajaya. The rakyat-friendly features to be incorporated include crime prevention through environment design (CPTED), industrialised building system (IBS) and eco-friendly amenities that promote community interaction.

It also said the SPV would facilitate timely development and delivery of the project, executed through a property management system to ensure sustainable and quality building management and maintenance.

The authority also endorsed the setting up of another SPV to implement the transformation of Johor Baru CDB.

The transformation has to be carried out following the decline in business activities since the opening of the new CIQ complex and the relocation of the Johor state administrative offices.

It added the transformation exercise encompassed river-clearing of Sungai Segget, a sewerage treatment within the river catchment and a flood mitigation programme.

During the meeting, members were also given the progress updates on Iskandar Malaysia, including projects that had been earmarked under the Ninth Malaysia Plan, strategic initiatives underlined for safety and security, public bus service and human capital blueprints.

Up to June 2009, Iskandar Malaysia had secured RM44.86 billion in committed investments.

Of the total amount, 31.5 per cent had been expended on development.

It said the total committed investment had exceeded the 2009 target of RM44.75 billion by the end of the year which represented 91 per cent of the RM47 billion to be achieved by 2010.

Najib also chaired the fourth Irda advisory council meeting attended by five council members.

Irda is a regulatory authority mandated to plan, promote and facilitate the development of Iskandar Malaysia into a strong and sustainable metropolis of international standing

Tipping point for Nusajaya growth in 2011: UEM Land
By Ahmad Fairuz Othman
Published: 2009/07/14

UEM Land Holdings Bhd expects growth for its Nusajaya township to start gathering momentum from 2011 as more infrastructure and other projects near completion.

Managing director Wan Abdullah Wan Ibrahim said the year would mark the starting point for many large-scale projects in Nusajaya.

At the same time, work on other major projects would also be done by then.

Among the projects that would be completed by 2011 are the coastal highway linking Johor Baru, quarters for state government staff and the federal government agency complexes.

The Legoland theme park would also be in its finishing stage.

"The tipping point for growth to spurt in Nusajaya would be in 2011. That is when a new pace of development begins and the environment in Nusajaya and Iskandar Malaysia would pick up pace," said Wan Abdullah during a question-and-answer session after a briefing on projects under Iskandar Malaysia.

Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Kong Ho Cha, who was on his first visit to Nusajaya with his deputy Datuk Lajim Ukin were among those at the briefing in Nusajaya, near Gelang Patah, Johor.

Also present were Iskandar Regional Development Authority chief executive officer Harun Johari and Iskandar Investment Bhd managing director Arlida Ariff.

Wan Abdullah said Nusajaya already has the volume in terms of residents as 11,000 houses in the township were already occupied.

Foreigners also make up almost two thirds of high-end homes such as the East Ledang project.

When asked about a public housing project which would cater to people working in the area, Wan Abdullah said the efforts would be made to ensure only qualified tenants would get the houses.

UEM Land Holdings is the developer of Nusajaya's main features such as the state administration complexes of Kota Iskandar, Puteri Harbour, Southern Industrial and Logistics Clusters and Alfiat Healthpark and residences.

Tanjong Agas Park To Create 30,000 Jobs
February 16, 2009 23:55 PM

Tanjong Agas Oil and Gas and Maritime Industrial Park

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 16 (Bernama) -- The Tanjong Agas Oil and Gas and Maritime Industrial Park in Pekan, Pahang, which has attracted RM6 billion investment, is expected to create about 30,000 jobs over the next 10 years, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said Monday.

Of the 30,000 jobs, the first 5,000 jobs are expected to be generated within the next two years.

"I believe this project can become a catalyst for our economic growth in this trying time," said Najib, who is the Member of Parliament for Pekan, after the launch of the industrial park by the Sultan of Pahang, Sultan Ahmad Shah.

The event was also attended by Tengku Mahkota Pahang, Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah, and Tengku Muda Pahang, Tengku Abdul Rahman Sultan Ahmad Shah.

The RM6 billion investment came from seven companies comprising local and foreign firms, which have agreements with Tanjong Agas Supply Base and Marine Services Sdn Bhd.

The companies are Vantech Dockyard, Tec-Steel Manufacturing Sdn Bhd, Usatech Marine (M) Sdn Bhd, Bitari Abadi Sdn Bhd, Core Competencies Sdn Bhd, Competent Selection Sdn Bhd and Damini Corporation Sdn Bhd.

The industrial park, covering 4,098 acres, is to be developed by Tanjong Agas Supply Base and Marine Services, which is 30 percent owned by the Pahang State Development Corporation (PKNP).

It will be a modern one-stop centre service and offshore base that will serve and support the region's enormous and rapidly growing upstream and downstream oil and gas exploration and production activities.

Among activities provided are shipyard, residential and commercial, fabrication yard, dredger yard, manufacturing plant, steel billet plant, bulk terminal, petroleum terminal and warehouses, factories and commercial development.

Najib, who is also the Finance Minister, said the benefits will flow to suppliers of equipment, financial capital and engineering services, construction, logistics, basic utilities like electricity and water as well as roads infrastructure, including the creation of new townships and attracting new foreign direct investments.

"In the long run, apart from creating new economic spin-off, it is envisaged that the development of the industrial park will provide opportunities for local knowledge workers to be employed in the various industries such as fabrication yard, ship repair and maintenance and petrochemicals," he said.

Najib also hoped that the industrial park will utilise as many locals as possible in order to generate more employment and high paying jobs for them.

"Most importantly, this marine industrial park has also the capability to cater for the needs of the regional players in Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Indochina and the Philippines," he said.

Najib said the development was a public-private sector initiative by the Pahang state government and will spur more economic activities in the state.

He also urged all related government ministries and agencies to facilitate the requirements and the needs of this project such as expediting approvals for related licences and other regulatory requirements.

Tengku Abdul Rahman, who is also chairman of Tanjong Agas Supply Base and Marine Services, said the industrial park was also ideal to act as a hub connector for the essential supplies of electricity and natural gas to other areas within Pahang.

Tanjong Agas Supply Base and Marine Services' managing director Mohd Faidzal Ahmad Mahidin said about RM2 billion was needed for building the infrastructure and the company was seeking financial support from KAF Investment Bank Bhd and the federal government.

Construction for the industrial park is scheduled to start in April or May this year and is expected to completed within two to three years, he said.

"We are currently in talks with another 10 more companies, both local and overseas, which are interested to invest in the industrial park," Mohd Faidzal said.

SP Setia scales down mall space in Setia Alam
Monday July 20, 2009
By ANGIE NG

http://biz.thestar.com.my/archives/2009/7/20/business/b_05liew.jpg

Tan Sri Liew Kee Sin … ‘Phase 1 will have a net lettable area of about
700,000 sq ft. We believe this is the optimal size for the phase.’

MD says it was done to better meet needs of retailers at Setia City Mall in Setia Alam

PETALING JAYA: SP Setia Bhd’s maiden retail venture, Setia City Mall in Setia Alam, Shah Alam, will have a potential net lettable area of more than 1.5 million sq ft upon completion of the project.

Explaining the rationale for the decision to scale down Phase 1 of the project from 1.23 million sq ft of gross lettable area to one million sq ft, president and chief executive officer Tan Sri Liew Kee Sin said this was to accommodate a more efficient design and to best meet the needs of retailers.

“Phase 1 will have a net lettable area of about 700,000 sq ft. Based on the detailed studies undertaken by our joint-venture partner Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund 2 Ltd’s retail experts in Singapore and Australia, we believe this is the optimal size for the phase,” Liew told StarBiz.

He said Setia City Mall was designed by a team from Lend Lease, comprising international experts in retail mall design, construction and management. Apart from a world-class design, it will also set the benchmark in sustainable retail development, being the first and only mall to be included in the Green Building Index’s pilot accreditation scheme.

The Phase 1, expected to be completed at end-2011, will comprise a department store, 250 local and international specialty stores, major anchor retailers and an entertainment precinct. Its gross development cost is RM450mil.

The mall design includes access to more than 2,000 parking lots and easy connectivity to nearby roads, towns and major highways. Liew said while it was still too preliminary to reveal plans for Phase 2, it would likely constitute a more upmarket component to complement Phase 1 and would appeal to a wide spectrum of the consumer market.

On analysts’ reports that the revised plans would now see the mall being developed in two phases, he said Setia City Mall had always been planned to be undertaken in two phases.

“Our initial announcement did not provide specifics on the phasing plan because at the time, we only had a conceptual master plan and it was too preliminary to disclose how things were going to be done.

“After an in-depth analysis of the primary, secondary and tertiary market catchments for the mall project, we are able to share more firm plans on how we intend to develop the mall.

“With Setia Alam’s demographics changing over the years as more people move in, building the mall in two stages will allow it to strongly establish itself in the market, and then to grow in sync with the needs of the customer base,” he said.

Liew said Setia City Mall would provide long-term, sustainable growth for retailers, the company, and the community at large.

“Our studies have indicated that Setia City Mall is a necessity to satisfy the local population’s desire for quality shopping and leisure facilities. SP Setia’s local knowledge and Lend Lease’s international retail design excellence will ensure that the mall is well above the curve in terms of design, functionality, offer and experience.

“The mall is responding to a market opportunity with the already large customer base set for rapid expansion. This ensures that demand for retail space will be high. We are currently in negotiations with key anchor retailers,” he said.

SP Setia in RM750m retail mall JV
By JOSEPH CHIN

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3080/2632481609_8d73f11f8d_o.jpg

KUALA LUMPUR: SP Setia Bhd is building a RM750mil retail mall in its Setia Alam township in Shah Alam under a joint venture.

SP Setia said Tuesday the retail mall would have a gross floor area of about 1.23m million sq. ft.

“The retail mall targeted to be completed by 2011 is planned as a ‘destination’ shopping mall that not only serves the households within the Setia Alam and Setia Eco Park townships, but also attracts the wider population of Klang, Shah Alam, Subang Jaya and Petaling Jaya,” it said.

Under the corporate exercise, its unit Bandar Setia Alam Sdn would dispose of 30.5 acres of freehold land in its Setia Alam township to Greenhill Resources Sdn Bhd for RM119.57mil.

Bandar Setia Alam would then team up with Lend Lease Asian Retail Investment Fund 2 Ltd, to develop the retail mall on the site.

The latter is a wholesale real estate development fund managed by Lend Lease Investment Management Pte Ltd and based in Bermuda with an investment mandate in the Asia Pacific region.

KFH: Medini Iskandar To Achieve Over RM21.3 Bln Value
July 30, 2009 22:42 PM

KUALA LUMPUR, July 30 (Bernama) -- Kuwait Finance House (KFH) foresees Medini Iskandar Malaysia achieving a total development value exceeding RM21.3 billion in 15 to 20 years.

CMP to start Lido Beach mega project this year
By ZAZALI MUSA July 11th, 2009

http://biz.thestar.com.my/archives/2009/7/11/business/b_13datukchan.jpg

Datuk Chan Tien Ghee with the model of Lido Boulevard.

JOHOR BARU: Central Malaysia Properties Sdn Bhd (CMP) will start developing Lido Boulevard, its multi-billion ringgit integrated waterfront development project, this year.

Managing director Datuk Chan Tien Ghee said land reclamation work along Lido Beach would start soon and would take 24 months to complete.

“The project has a gross development cost of RM2.7bil and a gross development value estimated at RM4bil,’’ he told StarBizWeek.

Located on 49.37ha, the project will be developed in phases stretching 2.4km along the Tebrau Straits from the now the defunct Lot I shopping complex to the Harbour Master’s office.

The flagship project by CMP, a company linked to business tycoon Tan Sri Vincent Tan Chee Yioun, is a joint-venture between CMP and Johor State Secretary Inc as the land owner.

“The project will be fully funded by CMP,’’ said Chan.

He said four dredging companies had bid for the reclamation work and the winning tender would be announced by end of the month.

They are Dredging International and Jan De Nul from Belgium, and the Netherlands-based Boskalis and Van Oord.

The notable projects undertaken by them include the Penny’s Bay for the Hong Kong Disney World Park, Dubai Palm Jumeirah, Singapore’s Jurong Island, Pulau Indah Marina and Watervillage in Klang and Palm Cove Canal in the United Arab Emirates.

About 6.8 million cu m of sand sourced from Teluk Rumania on the east coast of Johor is required for reclamation works.

The sand will be transported by a dredger anchored at Stulang Laut near the Causeway; then pumped to the site via a 2-km floating and sunken pipeline.

To facilitate this, two culverts under the Causeway were cleaned; one will be used to transport the sand and the other to ensure continuous flow of water.

“This was the first cleaning exercise conducted on the Johor side since the road section of the Causeway was completed in 1923,’’ said Chan.

He said the continuous flow of water from Stulang Laut to Lido Beach and vice versa would improve the water quality at Lido Beach.

“The project is expected to take shape by 2016 and it will completely rehabilitate Lido Beach and give Johor Baru a facelift,’’ said Chan.

The project comprises four main components – luxury condominiums, waterfront office suites, a hotel and a shopping mall.

Eight condominium blocks of between 18 and 26 floors each will offer 914 units on a 10.60-ha site.

Eight office blocks between six and eight floors each, a 296-room hotel-cum-serviced residences and a three-storey dual-frontage retail complex are also in the plan.

Incorporated in the mall will be an international-sized ice skating rink and 32-lane bowling alley and one of the main attractions will be the 4,645.15 sq m Indoor Snow Park with activities like ice sliders and tobogganing.

Chan said RM150mil would be spent to upgrade Jalan Abu Bakar, including widening it and building pedestrian bridges. CMP would also allocate RM46mil for landscaping to include water features like wading and splash pools as well as pocket parks along the 10m wide boardwalk.

Construction Work On Rm2.7 Bln Lido Boulevard Begins In September
August 6th, 2009

JOHOR BAHARU, Aug 5 (Bernama) -- Construction work on the RM2.7 billion Lido Boulevard development project along the Johor Straits is expected to start in September after obtaining the approval for the Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) Report.

Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman said construction of the real estate development project by Central Malaysian Properties Sdn Bhd (CMP) would begin with land reclamation works.

"The project, when fully completed in 2016, will become a landmark for Johor Baharu city especially along the coast of the Johor Straits," he said at a ceremony to hand over a cheque for RM750,000 to the Southern Region Fishermen's Association, here today.

The Fishermen's Association is the trustee for 300 fishermen from Kampung Teluk Serdang, Kampung Sungai Danga, Kampung Sungai Melayu and Kampung Skudai Kini located along the Johor Straits.

Meanwhile, CMP managing director Datuk Chan Tien Ghee said, the company would ensure the construction of the Lido Boulevard would not affect the livelihoods of coastal villagers or harm the marine environment along Lido beach.

According to him, about 6.3 million cubic meter of sand sourced from Teluk Ramunia located on the east coast of Johor will be used for the reclamation works.

The sand would be transported by a dredger anchored at Stulang Laut near the Causeway and pumped to the construction site via a 2 km-long floating and sunken pipeline, said Ghee.

"To facilitate this, CMP has cleared and cleaned two culverts under the Causeway. One will be used to transport the sand, while the other to ensure a continuous flow of water, which is imperative to improve the quality of water at Lido beach," he said.

The development of Lido Boulevard will feature the construction of eight blocks of high-end condominiums, eight blocks of waterfront office suites, a 296-room-hotel-cum-serviced apartment and three-storey shopping complex.

In addition, the project will also have a Snow Park, an Arts and Cultural Centre as well as a 24-acre man-made lagoon for water-based activities, said Ghee.

'Offer local firms incentives to invest in Iskandar Malaysia'
By Anis Ibrahim
Published: 2009/08/17

http://www.btimes.com.my/articles/btskan/pix_topright

ISKANDAR Malaysia in Johor is likely to recover from the economic slowdown much faster than other parts of the country.

Despite the downturn, foundation infrastructure work has begun, and there is clear political will to make the economic corridor a success, a senior valuer said.

Chartered valuation surveyor Samuel Tan said Iskandar Malaysia's proximity to Singapore and the multi-million-ringgit allocation from the federal government are also factors which will help Johor pick itself up better than others.

"A lot of overseas interest was generated when Iskandar Malaysia was launched in 2006. Johor Baru, which had been in a property slump for the past decade, is now seen as a place with good investment potential.

"Malaysians are sceptical (of Iskandar Malaysia's success) because of how the past years went, but I would remind them that it's a 25-year plan. Things will not change overnight," he said.

Tan, who is also executive director of KGV-Lambert Smith Hampton in Johor Baru, added that a statutory body like the Iskandar Regional Development Authority (Irda) also helps to convince foreign investors of the groundwork which the government has set up.

And while much still needs to be done on projects such as EduCity and the Newcastle University of Medicine Malaysia, important foundation work has begun.

"I can give examples of the Eastern Dispersal Link, Jalan Yahya Awal interchange, Southern Link and Senai-Desaru Expressway - all these facilitate traffic flow. "I believe that by the time these roads are ready, Johor Baru will have recovered from the slump and be ready to move forward."

Tan was cautious when asked to comment on reports of soaring property prices, following the Iskandar Malaysia development.

"It's true that following extensive promotion, Iskandar Malaysia captured a lot of foreign interest and things started looking up.

"Unfortunately, the present slowdown set in soon after that. So recovery has been derailed a bit."

House prices in Johor fell nearly 25 per cent following the 1997-98 economic crisis.

A two-storey house in Perling, Johor Baru, which sold for RM280,000 in 1997 will fetch about RM180,000 today.

Tan said although this trend was likely to continue next year, there could be some light at the end of the tunnel next year.

"For instance, about four years ago, a company bought 12ha of commercial land at RM30psf for a large department store in Johor Baru. More recently, they bought another plot of land but this time at RM65psf.

"Even in these uncertain times this company was willing to pay twice the price for this new piece of land. This is a sign that we're slowly moving towards better times, most probably in 2011 or 2012."

The next two years, Tan said, will be a time for Iskandar Malaysia to build up its foundation and strengthen ties with new and prospective investors.

He suggested that Iskandar Malaysia stop depending on foreign investments for the next couple of years.

"I've heard local investors claim that they're not given a level playing field. For the next two years, make it easier for local investors to set up in Iskandar Malaysia. Why not offer incentives for local companies to come in.

"The reason I'm suggesting this is because foreign investors first need to get their own house in order before they can invest overseas whereas Iskandar Malaysia cannot wait, it has to continue.

"And in the meantime, where else do we get investors from, but from our own shores," he said.

Despite the uncertainties surrounding the current business climate, Tan was hopeful about the property market in Johor.

"We're at the stage of building a foundation for Iskandar Malaysia, which is made easier with the close collaboration of the federal and state governments and the private sector.

"With that in mind, we can work towards recovery, which I believe we can expect to see in 2012," he said.

director Sam Gibbs trying out the orbiter space flight simulator during the launch.

MALACCA: The state’s newly opened RM20mil Planetarium Melaka is set to become an attraction for both tourists and researchers keen to uncover more of the wonders and mysteries of the universe.

Built on Malacca International Trade Centre’s (MITC) 4ha main roundabout, the planetarium’s main theatre houses a 15m internal dome with a 250 seating capacity.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam said the planetarium-cum-science centre was expected to attract not only casual visitors but also researchers from higher institutions of learning.

“The planetarium is one of the most high-tech in the country, with digital equipment amounting to RM2.4mil.

“I am confident that the centre will become a big attraction in the state while encouraging interest in astronomy,” he told reporters this after launching the planetarium recently.

There are currently three planetariums located in Peninsular Malaysia, namely the National Planetarium in Damansara, Kuala Lumpur, Terengganu Planetarium located at the foothill of Bukit Besar and the Al-Khawarizmi Astronomy Complex in Tanjung Bidara, Malacca.

Entrance charges are fixed at RM15 for adults while children are charged RM8.

However, a 50% discount will be given to those visiting the planetarium before Aug 31.

Iskandar Invt to award RM2b jobs next year
By Chong Pooi KoonPublished: 2009/10/01

http://www.btimes.com.my/Current_News/BTIMES/articles/lida/Article/Current_News/BTIMES/Images/btgraph10/arlida1.jpg

Iskandar Investment Bhd, a government company tasked to build catalytic projects in Iskandar Malaysia in Johor, will give out RM2 billion worth of contracts next year.

The contracts include jobs to build hotels and a shopping mall surrounding the Legoland theme park, president and chief executive officer Arlida Ariff said.

She said the company has awarded over RM1 billion worth of construction jobs before this and it is stepping up the development pace at Iskandar Malaysia. WCT Bhd, an infrastructure firm, had in July won contracts valued at RM767 million to build roads and sewerage there. Property and construction firm Mitrajaya Holdings Bhd has also won jobs from Iskandar Investment.

"We've spent the last few years planning and firming up deals, now it is time to convert those investments into activities that will stimulate more works on the ground," Arlida told a media briefing in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.

Next year's contracts are mainly for the construction of buildings that include a medical school and student residences, residential units within the Medini cluster, and amenities around Legoland.

The completion date for Legoland has been brought forward by about a year and it is now scheduled to be ready by April 2012, Arlida said. At least one hotel in that area and a shopping mall, will be ready by the time the theme park opens its doors, she said.

There will be a four-star business hotel and another resort hotel around Legoland, she added.

Arlida said Iskandar will bring in partners, both local and foreign, to work on some of the projects.

"Towards this year-end and into next year, we hope to announce at least three more partners and bring in three more universities into Educity (within Iskandar Malaysia)," she said.

"The next two months are very busy for me. I'll be travelling to five countries to finalise deals." She will be travelling to Dubai, the UK, Australia and India in the next two months.

"It's time to expand beyond the current markets and partners that we have now. There's still a lot of room for growth," she said.

Iskandar Investment's reputation and credibility is more solid now that it has awarded a big sum in contracts, she remarked. "We have given out over RM1 billion contracts. This is an affirmation that the project is for real."

Building an iconic expo city
Saturday October 10, 2009 By TEE LIN SAY

http://biz.thestar.com.my/archives/2009/10/10/business/b_18aptec.jpg

“It will be a truly integrated city attracting all types of people and
nationalities that will have something to interest each one of them.
The city will create a huge influx of tourists,” says Ch’ng.

THROUGH much of this year, Malaysia Pacific Corp Bhd chief executive Datuk Bill Ch’ng’s business compass has been focused on the iconic Asia Pacific Trade & Expo City (APTEC) – the centre-piece of the company’s project in Iskandar Development.

Ch’ng wants to turn the RM1.6bil APTEC into Asia’s biggest trade and distribution hub with hotels, service apartments, office towers, retail malls, international entertainment city, factory outlets, Malaysia cultural heritage village, and other tourist attractions.

“It will be a truly integrated city attracting all types of people and nationalities that will have something to interest each one of them. The city will create a huge influx of tourists,” says Ch’ng.

APTEC’s other unique component is LakeHill Resort City, a mixed-zone development comprising residential, commercial and tourism attractions.

This is located at Iskandar’s Eastgate Development Zone.

Once completed, both developments will have a combined gross developmental value of RM6.6bil.

“All the 22 parcels of land in the LakeHill Resort City, totalling 638 acres, are unencumbered. The 2008 valuation of the land is at RM450mil, but this will increase once the development starts,” says Ch’ng in an interview with StarBizWeek.

Some of the parcels of land, he points out, have been earmarked for joint venture (JV) purposes.

“Cash from these JVs will provide immediate profits to pay future dividends and cash for funding,” he says.

Interestingly, MP Corp is the only non government-linked company currently involved in the development of the massive Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA).

The masterplan has already been approved and MP Corp has started on infrastructures and civil works and is seeking approval for each of the 22 parcels within the development.

MP Corp’s sole partner in the IDR projects – APTEC and LakeHill – is AmanahRaya Development Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of AmanahRaya Bhd.

AmanahRaya, wholly owned by the Minister of Finance Inc, has a 22% interest in the joint venture.

Renowned architect

Ch’ng, 70, was the original architect who master-minded the proposed Genting Highland Casino Hill Resort between 1965 and 1972 which encompassed a ‘casino’ as an economic icon of the period to attract tourism and foreign exchange earnings.

He was also named one of the “50 Asia’s Top Corporate Takeover and Turnaround CEOs” by Business Weekly International magazine in 1989, for turning around the Emporium Group Singapore from bankruptcy and also Bousted-Co Singapore and Bousted PLC, United Kingdom from the doldrums.

He was appointed by tycoon Tan Sri Quek Leng Chan as an advisor and subsequently chief executive officer of MP Corp in 2005.

In December 2006, Ch’ng acquired a controlling stake of 60% in MP Corp through his Hong Kong-based private vehicle Top Lander Offshore Inc.

Ch’ng recalls that when he first took over the reins of the company “it was like taking over a sick baby”. Back then, MP Corp was developing low to medium cost houses in the area, now earmarked for the Iskandar development, which he put an immediate halt to. In place, he drew up a new masterplan which got the nod last year.

His mission now is to woo strategic investors – local and foreign – into the project.

By year end, MP Corp will launch its residential properties.

“Our office in Hong Kong is also coordinating and marketing APTEC and LakeHill in Hong Kong and China,” he enthuses.

Ch’ng sees huge potential in Iskandar-Singapore, as he sees strong similarities to Shenzen and Hong Kong economic success story.

“Iskandar-Singapore’s combined logistic, strategic and natural geographical advantage will be the epicentre of the Asia Pacific, Indian Continent and Middle East’s huge consumer market population,” he says.

Originally, the plan was to complete the whole development in 12-15 years but Ch’ng wants to fast track it to within 8 years.

“I want to build it all at one go. You cannot do it on a piecemeal basis. That always fails. You need something very unique and an icon to attract foreigners to come in. And APTEC will spur the imagination of foreign direct investments,” he says.

Ch’ng is now targeting Chinese exhibitors to take up 50% of its wholesale permanent exhibition centre comprising of 2.25 million nett exhibition space.

Meanwhile, initial construction will be financed by bank borrowings.

MP Corp is currently in discussions with some financial institutions to raise a term loan to undertake the project. MP Corp is also seeking a tax-incentive status similar to the ones obtained by Medini and Puteri Harbour in Nusajaya.

In the fourth quarter to June 2009, revenue grew 16% to RM2.73mil year-on-year; the company made a loss of RM915,000 from a profit of RM8.56mil in the previous year’s corresponding quarter.

For the full year, it made a net profit of RM54mil from RM57mil previously.

As at June, the company’s net asset value per share is RM1.55. The counter finished trading on Friday at 54.5 sen.

Two weeks ago, MP Corp proposed a two-renounceable-call rights issue of up to 129.448 million shares together with 129.448 million free detachable warrants.

The rights issue is at RM1 per share; the first call of 42 sen will be fully payable in cash by shareholders while the second call of 58 sen will be capitalised from the retained profits account.

The proposed rights issue is expected to raise gross proceeds of up to about RM54.37mil, of which RM30mil will be used to retire advances from Top Lander.

The proposed three-for-four rights issue is being undertaken on a minimum subscription basis to enable the company to raise funds without incurring interest costs.

MP Corp had determined a minimum subscription of 76.827 million rights shares and the company will obtain a letter of undertaking from its substantial shareholder, Top Lander Offshore Inc, to subscribe for all the rights shares.

The proposed rights issue is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2010.

Pedestrian bridge will enhance city’s image

Artist’s impression of the proposed pedestrian bridge linking the State
Legislative Assembly Complex across the Sarawak River to the Kuching Waterfront.

KUCHING: The proposed pedestrian bridge linking the State Legislative Assembly (DUN) complex to the Kuching Waterfront across the Sarawak River will enhance Kuching as a prime tourist destination, says the Managing Director of Plaza Merdeka Holdings Sdn Bhd, Steve Ng.

He said the bridge, designed by a renowned Malaysian architect, Hijas Kasturi, who also designed the new DUN complex, would allow visitors to savour the real beauty of the city. It would also link the city’s major historical sites, including the proposed Plaza Merdeka, which would be completed in 2012.

“I understand that the project (bridge) is still at the proposal stage,” he told the media yesterday.

On another matter, Ng dismissed the claims of State Assemblyman for Padungan Dominique Ng that there was no progress on the Plaza Merdeka project.

“The project is ahead of schedule with 130 bore piles completed to date. The ground conditions are good and we have not encountered any major problems. The workers are working late into the night, and we are confident of meeting the scheduled opening date in March 2012,” he said.

Plaza Merdeka, he added, had appointed an internationally acclaimed construction company, Binapuri Construction Bhd (the same company which had built the DUN Complex) as the project main contractor.

“We are confident that with their endorsement and strong organisation, we will complete the project in March 2012. We will continue to work hard to ensure a trouble-free construction process,” said Ng.

Besides the shopping complex, Plaza Merdeka will also have a five-star hotel with three-star prices, which would be operational by the third quarter of 2012.

Pedestrian bridge will enhance city’s image
Wednesday 02 Dec, 2009

http://www.easterntimes.com.my/images/Bridge.jpg

Artist’s impression of the proposed pedestrian bridge linking the State
Legislative Assembly Complex across the Sarawak River to the Kuching Waterfront.

KUCHING: The proposed pedestrian bridge linking the State Legislative Assembly (DUN) complex to the Kuching Waterfront across the Sarawak River will enhance Kuching as a prime tourist destination, says the Managing Director of Plaza Merdeka Holdings Sdn Bhd, Steve Ng.

He said the bridge, designed by a renowned Malaysian architect, Hijas Kasturi, who also designed the new DUN complex, would allow visitors to savour the real beauty of the city. It would also link the city’s major historical sites, including the proposed Plaza Merdeka, which would be completed in 2012.

“I understand that the project (bridge) is still at the proposal stage,” he told the media yesterday.

On another matter, Ng dismissed the claims of State Assemblyman for Padungan Dominique Ng that there was no progress on the Plaza Merdeka project.

“The project is ahead of schedule with 130 bore piles completed to date. The ground conditions are good and we have not encountered any major problems. The workers are working late into the night, and we are confident of meeting the scheduled opening date in March 2012,” he said.

Plaza Merdeka, he added, had appointed an internationally acclaimed construction company, Binapuri Construction Bhd (the same company which had built the DUN Complex) as the project main contractor.

“We are confident that with their endorsement and strong organisation, we will complete the project in March 2012. We will continue to work hard to ensure a trouble-free construction process,” said Ng.

Besides the shopping complex, Plaza Merdeka will also have a five-star hotel with three-star prices, which would be operational by the third quarter of 2012.

Pedestrian bridge across Sarawak River
By RINTOS MAIL Tuesday March 9, 2010

A pedestrian bridge will be built across the Sarawak River to link the Kuching Waterfront with the new State Legislative Assembly building in Petra Jaya.

Works on the bridge has yet to begin but it is said that the underlying concept of the bridge is the harmony of Kuching North City Hall (DBKU) and Kuching South City Council (MBKS), which complement each other. The project is expected to cost between RM10mil and RM20mil.

To be supported by suspension cables, the 4.95m wide pedestrian bridge is expected to be 225m long.

Based on an artist’s impression, the bridge is built with an ‘S’ shape curve across the Sarawak River to reach the maximum height of 8m above the water level so as to allow sufficient clearance for vehicles.

Two capsules, one to house a restaurant and another a souvenir shop, will also be built on the bridge.

Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud told reporters after the launch of the Kuching Esplanade recently that the proposed bridge project would be carried out.

However, he did not reveal the cost of the project and when it would be implemented.

Alor Setar Tower
Located in the heart of Alor Setar, this tower, standing at 165.5 metres tall is a prominent and modern landmark that signifies the rapid development in the state of Kedah. It functions as both a telecommunications tower and a tourist attraction. The Tower's platform allows visitors to enjoy a breathtaking view, that stretches from Gunung Jerai (formerly known as Kedah Peak) to the Strait of Malacca. From the tower, you will see vast expanses of paddy fields which lies outside of Alor Setar - an amazing view especially during harvest time. It's the second tallest tower in Malaysia.

Alor Setar Tower To Spot New Look Next Year
August 30, 2010 22:35 PM
http://www.bernama.com.my/bernama/v5/newsindex.php?id=525167

ALOR SETAR, Aug 30 (Bernama) -- The Alor Setar tower will spot a new look by early next year when upgrading works at a cost of RM4.5 million are completed by December.

According to Menara Kuala Lumpur Sdn Bhd Chief Executive Officer Zuraidah Mohd Said, renovation works which started in June, are expected to be completed within six months.

She said with its new look, the Menara Alor Setar would be able to organise many more activities of international standard to attract more tourists to the state and the tower.

"Among programmes to be organised beginning next year include extreme sports, cycling events, recreational runs and activities involving domestic and foreign participants," she said after breaking fast with the media here Monday.

She said there was a need to bring in more visitors to the tower in order to achieve a 10 per cent increase from the current 1.9 million visitors.

Alor Setar Tower To Spot New Look Next Year
August 30, 2010 22:35 PM
http://www.bernama.com.my/bernama/v5/newsindex.php?id=525167

ALOR SETAR, Aug 30 (Bernama) -- The Alor Setar tower will spot a new look by early next year when upgrading works at a cost of RM4.5 million are completed by December.

According to Menara Kuala Lumpur Sdn Bhd Chief Executive Officer Zuraidah Mohd Said, renovation works which started in June, are expected to be completed within six months.

She said with its new look, the Menara Alor Setar would be able to organise many more activities of international standard to attract more tourists to the state and the tower.

"Among programmes to be organised beginning next year include extreme sports, cycling events, recreational runs and activities involving domestic and foreign participants," she said after breaking fast with the media here Monday.

She said there was a need to bring in more visitors to the tower in order to achieve a 10 per cent increase from the current 1.9 million visitors.

New landmark for Kuching

An artist's impression of the Batu Lintang project
that will change the skyline of Kuching.

KUCHING: Kuching skyline is set to change with the construction of a 36-storey office tower in the prime area of Batu Lintang.

The proposed tower will beat the city's tallest building, the 22-storey Wisma Bapa Malaysia in Petra Jaya which now houses the Chief Minister's office, several ministries and the state secretariat.

The tower is part of Sarawak's biggest mixed-development project jointly undertaken by Naim Holdings Bhd with Lembaga Amanah Kebajikan Masjid Negeri Sarawak (LAKMNS) and Tabung Baitulmal Sarawak (TBS), both state charitable trusts.

Naim has a 70% stake in the joint venture while LAKMNS and TBS each holds a 15% equity interest. A memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the project was signed recently.

Naim managing director Datuk Hasmi Hasnan said other components of the 13.6ha project were a 27-storey apartment, 18-storey condominium, a second office-tower block, hotel tower, a four-storey shopping mall, a 17,000-sq-ft showroom and multi-storey car parks.

'We will incorporate a water theme park, roof garden and plenty of green areas to make the development environment friendly and one that the local population can enjoy,'' he added.

The project site was previously occupied by government quarters. The land has been cleared and earth-filling works was completed recently.

Hasmi said the project would be carried out in phases over 20 years, with the apartments to be built first. The apartment block will have 115 units and the condominium 216 units.

“For each phase, we will do in-depth study on market demand and supply to take cognition of any changes in the economic climate to ensure the project's success,'' he said.

Hasmi said the development was expected to create 2,000 jobs and would provide business opportunities to retailers and wholesalers.

Usaha mempertingkatkan kecemerlangan pengurusan Majlis Bandaraya Kuala Terengganu (MBKT) dapat diterjemahkan sepenuhnya tidak lama lagi apabila Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan itu bakal membina bangunan sendiri setinggi 23 tingkat bernilai RM80 juta, di Kampung Tanjung, Kuala Terengganu, akhir tahun ini.

Datuk Bandar Kuala Terengganu, Dato’ Adzlan Mohd Dagang, berkata bangunan yang akan dibina di kawasan seluas dua hektar sebagai mercu tanda bandar Kuala Terengganu dijangka siap dua tahun lagi.

“Apabila siap kelak, semua unit MBKT yang sesetengahnya pada masa ini menyewa di bangunan lain, akan ditempatkan di bawah satu bumbung,” katanya selepas menghadiri majlis hari bertemu pelanggan bersama pemimpin masyarakat Tiong Hua, semalam (12 Februari).

Selain itu, Dato’ Adzlan berkata, pada tahun ini MBKT menyasarkan kutipan hasil sebanyak RM60 juta dan berharap sasaran itu akan tercapai berikutan MBKT akan mengekalkan taksiran cukai pintu dan taksiran cukai harga tanah yang semakin meningkat di bandar ini.

Pada masa yang sama, sebuah perhentian bas juga akan dibina di Kampung Bukit Besar, Kuala Terengganu memandangkan perhentian bas MBKT di Jalan Jail sudah tidak sesuai dan tempat itu akan dijadikan medan letak kereta.

RM200m private hosp
Published on: Saturday, January 29, 2011
http://www.dailyexpress.com.my/news.cfm?NewsID=76884

http://www.dailyexpress.com.my/upload/new%20priovate2.jpg

Kota Kinabalu: A new 200-bed private hospital costing RM200 million will be built this year beside the Sutera Harbour Resort, here, that will further boost Sabah's medical tourism potential.

Jesselton Wellness and Parkway Holdings Limited on Friday signed a Master Collaboration Agreement to build the premium hospital named Gleneagles Medical Centre, Kota Kinabalu.

It would be positioned as a premium tertiary care hospital under ParkwayHealth - a brand synonymous with quality patient care and excellent clinical outcomes in the region.

The hospital would be equipped with state-of-the-art medical facilities and the latest medical technology to deliver quality patient care and comprehensive healthcare services that are of international standards.

In addition to inpatient, radiology, ancillary and ambulatory services, the hospital would offer specialities such as obstetrics and gynaecology, paediatrics, orthopaedics, general surgery, heart and vascular as well as internal medicines.

The groundbreaking ceremony is due in the middle of the year while construction is slated for completion by early 2014. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman witnessed the signing ceremony.

Jesselton Wellness was represented by Warisan Harta Chairman Datuk Ramlee Marhaban while Parkway by its CEO-cum-Managing Director, Dr Tan See Leng.

Under the terms of the agreement, Parkway would lease as well as operate the completed hospital building owned by Jesselton Wellness.

The entire development has an approximate gross development value (GDV) in excess of RM500 million.

"The hospital will be financed through a proposed RM200 million bond. "Danajamin Nasional Berhad, Malaysia's first financial guarantee insurer, has made an offer to guarantee the bonds.

"With this guarantee, the proposed bonds will be wrapped by Danajamin's AAA rating when issued," he said.

He said the medical landscape in Sabah right now is still limited in both options and capabilities. Hence, the Gleneagles Centre he is a critical move to address the urgently rising demand and needs of the population in Sabah.

He said Parkway was the right partner, being one of Asia's leading private healthcare providers with a strong pan-Asian presence and solid industry fundamentals that Sabah can leverage on.

"The successful completion of this project will be another step towards the benchmarks our visionary Chief Minister is setting to develop Sabah.

And with his support, this project has become a reality," he said.

Dr Tan on the other hand said with 40 years of experience and track record in providing hospital management services, clinical expertise and healthcare technology solutions, Gleneagles would continue to work closely with its partners in Sabah to contribute to development of the healthcare sector.

Parkway Holdings Limited has a network of 16 hospitals with more than 3,400 beds throughout Asia, including Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, India and China.

In Malaysia, it has 12 branches such as in in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Ipoh and Klang.

Sabah a vibrant market for property — Bina Puri
Posted on February 28, 2011, Monday

http://i.imgur.com/6mImW.jpg

KOTA KINABALU: The market for construction and property sectors remains vibrant in Sabah, with many upcoming projects rolling out especially in Kota Kinabalu.

With this in mind, building construction group Bina Puri Holdings Bhd (Bina Puri) remains as one of prospective beneficiaries getting a ‘slice of the pie’, given its established presence in the northern Malaysian Borneo state.

“Here in Sabah, I believe the boost would be on tourism,” said its executive director Matthew Tee during a recent briefing with the media on the group’s properties in Sabah.

Currently, Bina Puri has completed two flagship residential properties and one commercial hub in Kota Kinabalu. These residential properties: the high-end Jesselton Condominium in the Damai area, and the medium cost, four-storey walk-up Malawa Court apartments in Sepangar, gather a combined value of some RM83.1 million.

The commercial property Alamesra Commercial Centre, comprising blocks of shop and office, is worth RM85 million.

On the construction segment, Bina Puri is engaged in many projects involving institutions and road works in Kota Kinabalu. The latest construction project completed by the group was the phase one of its RM162-million contract with Universiti Malaysia Sabah, which was ahead of the targeted completion date by three month. Phase two, which will comprise new lecture halls, is expected to be finished by this May.

“These are a few of our projects in Sabah. Going forward, we will be focusing on two future projects, namely an apartment project called Jesselton View and a proposed condominium development named One Jesselton@Kepayan,” added Tee.

With an estimated gross development value (GDV) of RM66 million, the 16-storey Jesselton View comprising 80 units of apartments is slated to commence construction next month.

On the other hand, Tee disclosed that One Jesselton@Kepayan was still in the design stage. As such, construction would take another nine months to kick off.

“But we have bought the land. Tentatively, the condominium development should reach about RM75 million in GDV,” he added.

Bumiputera Developer To Build ITCC-Penampang
28 Mar 2011
http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v5/newsbusiness.php?id=574250

KOTA KINABALU, March 28 (Bernama) -- The International Technology and Commercial Centre Penampang (ITCC-Penampang) will be the biggest private commercial property development initiative to be undertaken by a local Bumiputera developer, said Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman today.

He said the government encouraged more Bumiputera entrepreneurs to initiate and participate in projects to help spur Sabah''s economic growth.

"There are indeed a variety of economic sectors in Sabah that Bumiputera businessmen can venture into...find out about the types of economic activities that you can take part in by speaking to the different agencies, business chambers and financial institutions," he said at the ground-breaking ceremony of ITCC-Penampang.

He called on the state''s private sector not to miss out on opportunities arising from National Key Economic Areas (NKEA) such as palm oil, tourism, oil, gas and energy which were critical to Sabah.

Musa also said the government needed to move away from being the principle driver of the country''s economic growth.

ITCC-Penampang, being developed by Sabanilam Enterprise Sdn Bhd, for RM300 million will be built on a four hectare site over the next 40 months.

Its Director, Datuk Clarence Bongkos Malakun, said ITCC would be equipped with a 300-room hotel block, 16-storey office tower, a modern commercial shopping mall and a hot spot Wi-Fi internet connection.

He also said the centre would feature a 30,000 sq ft convention hall, separate exhibition hall of over 60,000 sq ft and a huge banquet hall which can cater for 170 dinner tables.

RM3 billion project to transform Labuan into busy island
2011/06/17
http://www.nst.com.my/articles/RM3billionprojecttotransformLabuanintobusyisland/Article/

LABUAN: Labuan is expected to be transformed into a busy island in the next two years from with the completion of the RM3 billion petroleum integrated project in Pulau Daat here.

The project, under the Economic Transformation Programme, has commenced with the phase 1 (earth works) to be completed before year-end at a cost of RM300-RM350 million.

The project, jointly undertaken by Sabah-based RG Gas and Chemicals and China-owned Zhuhai Winbase International Chemical Tank Terminal Co Ltd, is poised to create some 3,000 jobs for the locals during the construction phase.

RG Gas and Chemicals Sdn Bhd managing director, Jimmy YM Tang, said the project would turn Labuan into a significant oil and gas hub in the region.

"With the plan to turn Labuan into an oil and gas hub for the country similar to that of Pengerang in Johore, we are optimistic we can do our part to help realise this," he told reporters after the signing the memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Sarawak-based oil and gas company, Borneo Oil and Gas Venture Sdn Bhd, here today.

The MOU is for the construction of tank farm terminal.

Tang said the mega project in the region has complied with the requirements of environmental impact assessment.

On the possibility of recruiting workers to help complete the project, he said: "Labuan may regain its glory like before with thousands of workers flooding the town when the Sabah Shipyard was still operational. We do not see any problem of getting the manpower, especially locals."

He said the completion of the project would see the building of the largest oil tank storage in the region.

"The infrastructure of the tank terminal will comply with international standard," he said. -- BERNAMA

business centre with the sheltered express bus station.

SUNGAI Petani in Kedah will finally have a sheltered express bus station. The station will be located within a commercial centre called Dataran Usahawan which will be built at the present express bus station on Jalan Kuala Ketil.

Work on the RM10mil centre, a project by the Kedah State Development Corporation (KSDC), is scheduled to start in June and complete in 14 months.

Project architect Mohd Sobri Mustafa said the station would have nine bays for express buses and 32 ticketing booths.

He said there would also be parking bays for buses outside the building.

He said the centre, to have a built-up area of 5,632 square metres, would have 65 retail outlets.

The present express bus station together with its ticketing booths and hawker stalls would be temporarily shifted to the former Pasar Jumaat site across Jalan Kuala Ketil, Mohd Sobri told Sungai Petani MP Johari Abdul in a briefing about the project on Thursday.

Johari said the temporary bus station should be tarred and have proper shelter for passengers and sufficient lightings for the con-venience and safety of passengers.

He requested the KSDC to install electricity and telephone lines to the ticketing booths as well as provide basic amenities for hawkers to be relocated to the temporary site so that their income would not be affected.

SuperBoom Projects Sdn Bhd, a property developer, expects its latest project in Ipoh, Perak, to generate a gross development value of about RM250 million.

The Haven, expected to be Perak's most luxurious condominium project, will comprise three residential blocks. So far, 80 per cent of the units at the first block and 20 per cent of the units at the second block have been booked.

According to chief executive officer Peter Chan, buyers can expect prices to rise by about 30 per cent.

"Currently, we are selling at RM338psf. But, we have been told that the property can fetch as much as RM450psf if the market knows what The Haven is all about," said Chan in a media briefing in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.

He was speaking to the media after the signing ceremony with Bina Puri Holdings Bhd and Beijing Construction Engineering Malaysia. Superboom hired both companies as joint main contractors.

Chan expects the property market in Perak to grow with the new Ipoh-KL electric train service and as more planes fly to Ipoh.

"Perak has not seen major development in the last 20 years. But, with so much development recently, it certainly makes the timing of our project spectacular," said Chan.

The Haven will come in various types, from the entry level units of under 1,000 sq ft to penthouses of 5,000 sq ft. As the condominium is located near the hillside and forest, and has a lake view, Chan believes it can attract foreign buyers as well as those from Kuala Lumpur.

"Although these natural resources are a common sight to those living in Ipoh, it is something unusual for many of us. I think this makes The Haven an ideal place for vacation and an ideal place for a home," said Chan.

So far, piling work for the first block has been completed, and both Bina Puri and Beijing Construction Engineering are due to complete the project in 2013.

It also expects to open its third block for sale in about six months and prices of these units are expected to be higher than the current RM338psf it is offering for the first two blocks.
