TA Properties eyes RM2.5b from 6 projects

TA PROPERTIES Sdn Bhd, the property arm of TA Enterprise Bhd, expects to reap some RM2.5 billion gross development value (GDV) from the six property projects it plans to launch this year.

Executive chairman Datin Alicia Tiah said the group is confident that response to all its projects will be good as it targets high-end buyers who are seeking properties with good returns.

"The Government has done a lot in terms of bringing in more foreign direct investments, which as a result, actually requires developers to develop more high-end housing for foreign investors," Tiah told reporters after the launch of TA Properties' latest housing project called "Idaman Villas" in Petaling Jaya yesterday.

The 2.8-ha guarded and gated (G&G) self-contained Idaman Villas development comprises 54 units of semi- detached houses priced at an average of RM1.7 million each. It is expected to be bought mainly by locals.

"There is not much of prime land available within the vicinity of Damansara Idaman, but we were quite fortunate that we were able to purchase 20ha of landbank in Bandar Sri Damansara, where we plan to develop the G&G Seri Suria township," said Tiah.

The planned township will comprise shoplots, office suites, semi-detached houses, bungalows and service apartments and will be launched in April.

Tiah said phase four, the final phase of TA Properties' inaugural development, Damansara Idaman, a high-end G&G bungalow development, is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter of the current year.

Other developments that will be launched in the same quarter are residential units in Mont' Kiara and two tower blocks at Jalan P. Ramlee, Kuala Lumpur.

"We will also launch three blocks of service apartments at Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur, in July. We have submitted our building plans and are currently waiting for approval," she said. is it NAS PAVILION ??

The property subsidiary is expected to contribute as much as RM80 million to group revenue this year, compared with RM40 million, or 30 per cent, last year.

Its stockbroking business had contributed 70 per cent to group turnover last year.

Tiah said TA Properties aims to be one of the top developers in the country within the next three years.

Once they finish the linking of jalan sultan ismail this project seem so much more interesting to potential buyer or new owner.Boom its one of first building that someone see as they enter the golden triangle area from the south.

Went I went to view the NAS Pavillion show room, the plan showed a large pedestrian frontage with fountains. There was no word of the Jalan Sultan Ismail improvement which will almost take away that frontage. Think traffic noise.

Yeah andy i remember that too!Isuspect one day if they should finish this project it will turn out to be something different all together from the original preposed building!

The very latest!!!Emm more like nothing ha!Lets give it some time .Its going to be one busy intersection once the smart tunnel opens for traffic end of this month!:) http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c224/dengilo/jan2007006.jpg

yikes...so damn dead :(

Uhhh~~~ Too bad....why stop it's contruction progress??

will there be a pedestrian crossing there?

Infact yes andy.Which i should have shown in the photo its just little to the right of the photo if i am not mistaken the longest in malaysia!

Emm What do guys think now is that a not good enough location??Haa haahttp://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c224/dengilo/jan2007013.jpg

That's going to be fun crossing that street.!!

Probably will put me off going down Jalan Imbi, it's a pain crossing the street as it is.

and yet its still as it is!!

Hi,

I am a buyer of one of the units here.

Is there any owners of NAS Pavilion here? I want to know what are you plans and what can we do for a project as such which just stuck halfway. Can we get a refund or take legal action?

On 10-Sep-07, the last I heard from the developer's lawyer is, the developer is not contactable and also the lawyer no longer represent them.

Can someone please advise ?

Thanks. My email is cachaca@online.fr

I am also one of the owners.

I have no idea whats happening to this project. Would appreciate more comments from other buyers.

Any ideas how to go about reviving this project? Can banks get involved?

^^
Incredible what is going on with NAS Pavilion. Would appreciate it if you could keep us updated with your findings here. :)

1st CN Gallery then NAS Pavilion...whats next? this is bad.....

Nas Pavilion project gets good response
BT 24/05/2004 By OOI TEE CHING

THE revived RM377 million Nas Pavilion project, undertaken by Urban Shift Sdn Bhd, has received encouraging response since the launch of its first phase four months ago.

To date, 85 per cent of the service apartments and 50 per cent of the retail units have been sold. Out of the service apartments sold, 15 per cent was taken up by foreigners, mainly Indonesians.

“We salvaged the abandoned project from Metro Jelita Sdn Bhd at a bargain price after it went into receivership a while ago. Our buyers can be assured that we are committed to delivering within three years as stipulated in the sale and purchase agreement,” Urban Shift director Datuk Muhammad Shafee Abdullah said.

He was speaking at the launch of the second phase by Second Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday. Nas Pavilion is located along Jalan Imbi, near Berjaya Times Square.

Nas Pavilion boasts of exclusive furnished and serviced residences, a six-storey shopping mall, an intelligent office tower and comprehensive clubhouse facilities.

Speaking to reporters later, Dr Ng said the Government’s recent suggestion that developers may be asked to “build then sell” is meant to protect house buyers without over-regulating the building industry.

The concept suggests that buyers pay 10 per cent as downpayment and the remaining 90 per cent on completion of their property.

In implementing the “build then sell” policy, Dr Ng reassured builders that the Government will ensure there are no sudden upheavals in the industry.

She expressed the hope that property developers will prepare themselves psychologically and financially so that the industry will move in tandem with the Government’s policy.

In view of better global economic indications, Dr Ng anticipates that the local property sector will register 2.6 per cent growth this year.

Can someone please translate? Thanks :)

MENDESAK KERAJAAN MENYELAMATKAN SEGERA PROJEK TERBENGKALAI – PLAZA RAKYAT DAN NAS PAVILION DI KUALA LUMPUR
Tuan Yang Di pertua,

Ada dua projek mega yang terletak dalam kawasan Parlimen Bukit Bintang yang lama terbengkalai. Satu ialah projek pembinaan Plaza Rakyat di Jalan Pudu, Kuala Lumpur dan yang kedua ialah Projek Nas Pavilion (dulu dikenali sebagai C N Gallery) terletak di Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur. Projek Plaza Rakyat yang dibina dalam tahun 1997 telah terbengkalai selepas asas atau tapak bangunan disiapkan. Nama Plaza Rakyat menjadi sebutan rakyat dan pelancong-pelancong asing sehinggakan stesen Star LRT yang terletak di sebelahnya turut dinamakan Stesen Plaza Rakyat dan menenggelamkan nama Stesen Puduraya yang termasyhur dengan keadaan kesesakan lalulintas terutama bas. Malangnya selepas 11 tahun berlalu keadaan tapak pembinaan sungguh mengaibkan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur di mata dan pemandangan para pelancong asing.

Projek ini ialah projek usahasama swasta dan Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur. Ramai pembeli lot bangunan telah melaburkan wang mereka dalam projek ini. Bukan sahaja mereka rugi kerana tidak mendapat balik modal dan kehilangan perniagaan disitu tetapi mereka dikejar oleh bank-bank bagi mengutip balik pinjaman yang dibuat dan dikenakan caj faedah keatas pinjaman yang tinggi.

Di tahap manakah pihak DBKL dan pemaju sendiri sudah menyelesaikan masalah-masalah bertindih yang menyebabkan projek ini terhenti walaupun desakan demi desakan serta keluhan demi keluhan orang ramai yang meminta Kerajaan berbuat sesuatu untuk menyelamatkan projek ini agar diteruskan dan disiapkan secepat mungkin. Sejak menjadi wakil rakyat kawasan Bukit Bintang pada 1999, saya tidak putus-putus menyuarakan agar projek ini disiapkan secepat mungkin tetapi alasan demi alasan yang diberikan bagi menyedapkan pendengaran.

Projek terbengkalai yang kedua ialah Nas Pavilion yang terletak di Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur. Bangunan Times Square yang terletak bersebelahan yang dibina terkemudian sudah beroperasi sepenuhnya tetapi projek terbengkalai Nas Pavilion terus tinggal dalam keadaan mengaibkan.
Para pembeli unit yang telah melabur wang simpanan seumur hidup mereka kini tertunggu-tunggu bilakah mereka dapat memasuki unit perniagaan yang telah mereka beli. Mereka difahamkan bahawa pihak RHB yang mengambilalih projek tersebut bercadang untuk menjual projek terbengkalai itu kepada pembeli lain dan para pembeli unit sedia ada akan diberikan sadikit gantirugi yang langsung tidak cukup untuk menampung wang yang mereka telah laborkan. Ini merupakan satu bentuk pelaburan aset yang sungguh merugikan. Para pembeli enggan menerima tawaran ini, sebaliknya mereka mahukan pemaju terus membangunkan projek tersebut hingga siap yang mana mereka sendiri akan membuat pilihan sama ada untuk meneruskan perniagaan atau menjualkannya kepada pihak lain.

Saya minta Kerajaan campur-tangan untuk menyelesaikan seberapa segera dua projek terbengkalai ini kerana ia mengaibkan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur. Kerajaan patut mempunyai satu unit khusus yang menjaga dan bertugas menangani projek-projek pembangunan terbengkalai untuk bangunan perniagaan dan perdagangan sebagaimana banyak projek perumahan terbengkalai yang berjaya dipulihkan.

Flying to KL for a protest

Buyers staging a peaceful street protest over the abandoned Nas Pavilion building.

KUALA LUMPUR: Japanese Saito Kenji flew all the way to Kuala Lumpur just to join a protest against a developer here over a failed condominium project.

http://www.nst.com.my/Streets/Wednesday/Stories/2381739/insidepix2?display=xsmall
Saito Kenji, a buyer from Japan, flew in to join the protest.

"I paid RM30,000 down-payment for a condominium apartment and I want to know what is happening to it," he said.

Saito had bought his apartment in the Nas Pavilion project which is in the city's Golden Triangle area. The project, previously financed by Multi-Purpose Credit Sdn Bhd, has been abandoned and the land is now under RHB Bank.

Saito joined other buyers who have called on the government to intervene.

The project was to consist of one 30-storey and one 28-storey block of condominium apartments, 20-storey offices and a five-storey shopping complex.

The buyers were unhappy because they would only get a 10 per cent refund of their down-payment after the project was abandoned. At least 30 per cent of the buyers were foreigners.

"I don't understand why the bank is compensating us at a low rate. We should get back what we paid," said businessman Danny Foo.

aiyo ... 30% foreign buyers... give bad impression leh

if i were the land owner, why not build a super club? bigger and much more hip than Zouk! ...nah, easy to construct and easy to get the money!

sayangnya the location is soo strategic

the problem with malaysian developer is; when people build shopping mall, then he also wanna build shopping mall, and then people build high end condos, he also wanna build the same thing.....tak kreative langsung!

for god sake, KL needs a variety type of development. not the typical shopping mall and condos lah...huh, no wonder many people complaining KL CBD being dull and boring....

ya. i setuju. kalau ikutkan kat kl tu tak ada pa hanya petronas tower je. buatlah tempat menarik untuk pelancong mcm kat hong kong, london, shanghai. mcm madame tasuud, london dungeon, atau funfair ke? aku pun boring kalau pi kl asik klcc je....yang aku tak suka kat kl nie yg best shopping complex je....

Madam Tussaud is damn boring lah! what a waste of money....

KL needs more superclubssssss!!!!!!! :lol:

New builder on the scene
By Lim Chia Ying
TheStar Metro November 2, 2009


http://thestar.com.my/archives/2009/11/2/central/p3project.jpg
Revival plans afoot: The abandoned project on Jalan Imbi has been hoarded up.


THE long-abandoned project opposite Club De Vegas and Parkroyal Kuala Lumpur along Jalan Imbi may be given a new lease of life soon.

Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Ahmad Fuad Ismail said a new developer has come on board and submitted plans for the project but has been asked by the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to revise the plan.

Driving down along Jalan Imbi, it is hard to miss this neglected concrete structure that has become an eyesore over the last decade.

The structure has some partially completed floors and the site has been hoarded up.

“We have asked the new developer to amend and improve on the design so that it blends with the surroundings,” said Ahmad Fuad.

This development has already changed hands twice and is now in the hands of the third developer.

Based on records from the DBKL, the first planning approval issued by City Hall was for mixed commercial development known as CN Gallery, comprising three building blocks — one block of 27-storey hotel (352 rooms), two 12- and 20-storey office blocks, five floors of shopping podium and four basement car park floors.

It was to be built on Lots 230-232, 625-631 and 647-649 in Section 67, Jalan Imbi by the first developer Tetuan Metro Jelita Sdn Bhd.

According to the DBKL’s records, construction works stopped in 1998. The said developer went into liquidation and receivership by bankers.

Then in 2004, another developer called Urban Shift Sdn Bhd wanted to revive the project and changed the name to Nas Pavillion. According to the signboard that still stands outside the hoarded site, there are four building blocks for this project — Block A comprises a 29-storey service apartment, Block B a 31-storey service apartment, Block C a 22-storey service apartment, five floors of shopping podium and six basement floors.

However, this too failed to take off and the developer went into liquidation.

Ahmad Fuad said although the property had service apartments, it was classified as commercial premises at that time and hence not covered under the Housing Development (Control & Licensing) Act 1966 (Act 118).

“The DBKL has no power to prosecute developers of abandoned projects and the most we can do is issue compounds to the owner for breeding mosquitoes in stagnant water and sheltering drug addicts, if there are complaints.”

However, issuing compounds is pointless now that the two developers have gone into receivership. It is learnt that a court ruling in 2008 decided on scheme of settlement to be paid to the two batch of purchasers who were affected. The first batch was given 25 sen of every RM1 paid as deposit while the second batch only received 10 sen per RM1 on an ex-gratia basis.

It is learnt that 400 buyers for the original project and 200 for the second were affected.

In earlier reports, buyers of the two abandoned projects had reportedly formed an action committee to get back their deposits after a meeting held with Bukit Bintang MP Fong Kui Lun.

The National Housebuyers Association (HBA) honorary secretary-general Chang Kim Loong said since April 12, 2007, the Housing Development (Control & Licensing) Act 1966 has been amended to cover all housing accommodation that includes service apartments, although they are on commercial lands.

“As the two previous developers went into liquidation before the Act could be amended, therefore the Act could not apply then.

“But effective April 12, 2007, all housing developments have come under the Housing and Local Government Ministry for developers’ licence and sales and advertisements permit.

“So once the new layout plan is approved by the DBKL, it will be considered a new development that falls under the purview of the ministry,” said Chang.

He added that all developers were also required to submit the Form 7 (f) of the Act every quarterly starting Jan 1, 2010, instead of the previous bi-annual practice.

This is a comprehensive set for developers to update the progress status of their projects.

Ahmad Fuad said the DBKL had received the new plan to modify the original planning approval from new developer Tetuan Carribean Gateway Sdn Bhd.

The new application is also for mixed commercial development comprising five blocks - one 25-storey block of service apartments, one 29-storey block of service apartments with one level of facilities and swimming pool, one 23-storey office block, two 22-storey blocks of ‘condotel’ with one floor of facility and swimming pool, five-storey shopping podium and four basement floors.



A recap:

1. Proposal 1998: known as CN Gallery, comprising 3 blocks and a 5-storey mall
— one block of 27-storey hotel (352 rooms), two 12- and 20-storey office blocks, five floors of shopping podium and four basement car park floors.


2. Proposal 2004: known as Nas Pavillion, comprising 4 blocks including a 5-storey mall
— Block A comprises a 29-storey service apartment, Block B a 31-storey service apartment, Block C a 22-storey service apartment, five floors of shopping podium and six basement floors.


3. Proposal 2009: "Carribean Gateway", comprising 5 blocks and a 5-storey mall
— one 25-storey block of service apartments, one 29-storey block of service apartments with one level of facilities and swimming pool, one 23-storey office block, two 22-storey blocks of ‘condotel’ with one floor of facility and swimming pool, five-storey shopping podium and four basement floors



“This application has been considered by the DBKL One-Stop Centre committee on March 12 and April 9 this year and it was decided that the proposed plans have to be further amended to adhere to technical needs as we are the approving authority for the design and layout plan.

“Up until now, the applicant has yet to present the revised plan as ordered,” said Ahmad Fuad.
