Palmex to launch RM180mil projects

By David Tan in Penang
PALMEX Industries Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Palmco Holdings Bhd, will launch 645 condominium units in Sungai Ara and Tanjung Tokong next year. The project has gross sales value of some RM180mil.

Its general manager Ang Hooi Eow told StarBiz that 529 units, known as Regency Heights, would be sited on 15 acres in Sungai Ara.

''The scheme (in Sungai Ara), with a gross sales value of about RM120mil, will be launched early next year and is scheduled for completion in 30 months,'' he added.

The units, priced from RM195,000, have built-up areas of 1,258 sq ft. There are also 16 penthouses with built-up areas of 2,516 sq ft, selling from RM488,000.

According to Ang, the selling point of the condominium is that they are located on elevated ground 200ft above sea level.

Most of the units face the sea, and the rest the greenery of the hills. Other selling points, he said, were the spaciousness of the units, smart-home features, round-the-clock security, Balinese landscaped garden, and its comprehensive range of clubhouse facilities.

''Most of the medium- and high-cost properties in the area appreciate between 20% and 25% in capital value after obtaining the certificate of fitness.

''The capital value of Regency Heights is likely to follow this pattern,'' Ang said.

He said that Palmex would in the second half 2004 launch 116 high-end condominium units on 4.4 acres in Tanjung Tokong.

The project, known as Valencia, has a gross sales value of RM60mil and is located opposite the Island Plaza shopping complex. It is scheduled for completion in 30 months.

Ang said Palmex's recently launched projects included the Palm Garden comprising 40 double-storey terraced houses and 28 three-storey terraced houses in Sungai Ara.

Recently, Palmex also launched 27 three-storey shop offices in Sungai Ara, scheduled for completion in the current quarter.

You obviously know it is not bad but you just wanna stir up something or that you just want attention by having the thread starter to apologised to you. You doesn't sound like you are kidding here ....kinda intimidating and had led TYW to apologised to you which I find unesccessary. So please stop your childish behaviour here so that others could enjoy the forums.

I always think that 4 is a bad sign in hong kong and china. Now i know this also happen to malaysia and philipines.
As in cantonese, its 4444444444 = sei sei sei sei sei sei sei sei sei sei, really bad huh if you said this in hong kong, never try in hong kong.

There is a wealthy businessman living near my place with a number plate bearing 4444 on a 7-series Bimmer for years :D

.........and a prominent 'Tan Sri' here loves the number '4' although he an ethnic-Chinese. ;)

Just like in western world "13" is bad luck

"4" although is touch-wood in common to chinese community
double or numberless are worsen to single indeed
also "14", "40" and "44" are is the must :nuts: :nuts:

F4, Heheeeee~~~~~~~
That why they put F in front to 4
And they maily come from overseas Chinese :D

Thick smoke causes a stir

PENANG: Thick smoke billowing from a construction site in Sungai Ara here caused a stir among residents nearby.

There was, however, no cause for alarm as the fire only destroyed some plywood and partition boards made of zinc at a temporary workers' quarters.

Bayan Baru fire station officer Ismail Mohd Zain said 36 fire-men, including four volunteers, in five fire engines rushed to the scene soon after receiving the emergency call at 11.51am yesterday.

He said they brought the fire under control within seven minutes.

SMOKY AIR:Smoke billowing from the construction site in Sungai Ara.

He said the workers rushed to safety when the fire started, adding that the cause of the fire was still being investigated.

Palmex Industries Sdn Bhd general manager Ang Hooi Eow commended the firemen for their quick action.

In IPOH, a pre-dawn fire razed two shop houses including an antique shop on Jalan Raja Musa Mahadi.

Ipoh Fire and Rescue Depart-ment spokesman said there were no occupants in the houses when fire broke out at 2am yesterday.

He said the antique shop owner had just left home after closing for business at 1am.

He said about 20 firemen were despatched to the scene following a distress call at 2.09am. The fire was put out within 30 minutes, he added.
