Uneasy calm, BY ISABELLE LAI, The Star Online, Business News (Extracts)

STATISTICS don’t lie. The US stock market is hitting new highs, just like many other exchanges around the world. The volatility index, also known as the fear index, is at a low.

But somehow, it does not seem like the markets are poised for a bull run. Instead, fund managers generally agree that this is a period of “uneasy calm”.

Aberdeen Asset Management Sdn Bhd managing director Gerald Ambrose:

“The market is currently in an odd situation, where it doesn’t really feel like a bull market, but no one seems to be very bearish on it,” he tells StarBizWeek.

What has happened in recent months is the reallocation of assets from fixed income to equities or other asset classes, as fund managers wait for the cue from the US and other developed markets on its monetary policy.

There was a report that stated that even central banks around the world, holding some US$11 trillion (RM35 trillion) in fixed-income assets, are reallocating their resources in preparation of a higher interest rate environment.

The Malaysian market still seems to be heading in an upward direction.

“But it is becoming harder to find a stock at a valuation in which we believe could yield a big upside because they have all gone up so much,” he elaborates, adding that markets at the moment are generally over-valued.

☆☆☆ [Is Mulpha Stock Overvalued?]

Syed Muhammed Kifni says:
The FTSE Bursa Malaysia KL Composite Index (FBM KLCI) is a case in point, noting that its price-to-earnings (PE) ratio is currently hovering around 16.9 times, which is more than the +1 standard deviation above its historic mean multiple.

Despite the market’s valuation being on the expensive side, he says investors who look into company-specific analyses may uncover good stocks at relatively undemanding valuations.

Mulpha selling HK-based Subsidiary

PETALING JAYA: Mulpha International Bhd (MIB) is disposing of its Hong Kong-based subsidiary, AF Investments Ltd (AFIL), to Lemongrass Master Fund I (LMF) for US$10mil (RM32mil). MIB told Bursa Malaysia yesterday it had entered into a share-purchase agreement with LMF and AFIL for the proposed disposal of its entire 100% equity interest in AFIL.

“AFIL holds 70% equity interest in Indochine Park Tower Joint Venture Co (IPT). As a result of the proposed disposal, AFIL and IPT will cease to be subsidiaries of MIB,” it said.

IPT, which is 70% owned by AFIL, is a company incorporated in Vietnam. It is the owner and operator of Indochine Park Tower, an 18-storey serviced residences building located in Ho Chi Minh City, which comprises 55 fully serviced three-bedroom apartments and penthouses ranging from 128 to 249 sq m each.

“The proposed disposal is expected to contribute positively to the earnings per share and net assets per share of the MIB group, and it has no effect on the share capital and substantial shareholders’ shareholdings of MIB.”

equator88, thanks for optimistic encouragement and reminder

Good appetizing news this morning, Thanks Calvin.

Mulpha sues, not being sued. Mulpha sues for a good reason. Mulpha sues to protect Mulpha's (investors) interest.

Better view fetches better value for Mulpha! Who would want the good view (fengshui) of own house to be blocked by a 19-storey building? (an eye-sore)

At the most, Mulpha spends some legal fees - under operational expenditure.

Mulpha Board of Directors should have paid a visit to this forum!

They would be very glad to find out that this forum has done promoted great publicity and marketing for Mulpha.

Perhaps, Wayne Wong, Mulpha General Manager of Sales & Marketing is blushing in embarrassment now.

It is a good thing to notice that Mulpha "enthusiasts" are now sensitive to every bit and piece about Mulpha's development and well-being. Bravo to all!

Mulpha files suit against Stamford Corp


PETALING JAYA: Mulpha International Bhd has filed a suit against Stamford Corp Ltd in a bid to stop the Singapore company’s plan to convert the Sir Stamford Hotel in Sydney into a taller apartment block, according to The Australian newspaper.

The redevelopment plan will turn the Sir Stamford Hotel to a 19-storey tower, doubling its existing height and could affect the view from Mulpha’s properties.

Mulpha, through its unit Mulpha Australia Ltd, owns the InterContinental Sydney and adjoining Transport House, which is located behind the Sir Stamford Hotel.

Mulpha alleged that not only did the New State Wales Heritage Council misinterpret large sections of local planning controls, but also the City of Sydney did not forward all negative public submissions about the proposal to the Heritage Council.

According to the newspaper, planning controls call for a 35m-45m building overlooking the Botanic Gardens, with the tower set back by 10m.

Welcome aboard, Ayam Tua

Probably, as you say, gweilo. "Pioneer miners strike more gold." They SAPU early to earn FAT profits.

Good morning, Calvin. Let's patiently keep our fingers crossed. Cannot blame stale bulls selling because they have been waiting too long to rationalise fiction or facts admist reality at hand. As the saying goes, HARD facts but STRANGE truths.
On another note,there is a recent revelation of overpaid top directors of companies who are running losses. There is a short piece about Director Lee Seng Huang.
There is another interesting article with a list featuring small-cap property companies which are milking millions from the financial boom in Iskandar Ecoscape. The thing is, Mulpha with a definitely very superior reservoir of capital assets and landbank is not even mentioned in the list!(Mulpha indeed is being grossly underestimated and overlooked!)

Mulpha looking at retirement homes as next big thing
By Elena Tunku Sherie,www.theedgemalaysia.com May 9th, 2014

KUALA LUMPUR: Mulpha International Bhd’s FKP Property has been rebranded to Aveo Group, an Australian property and investment company which focuses on retirement village ownership and management. Mulpha owns 26.2% of Aveo. Currently, Aveo has 76 villages in Australia.

“Prior to the global financial crisis, FKP offered a diversity of earnings,” executive chairman Lee Seng Huang said on Monday. “But after the financial crisis, the market decided that our business model was too complicated and wanted us to be more focused. We agreed and we rebranded FKP to Aveo.”

Lee is confident that there will be an increase in retirement portfolios over the next few years. “The concept of retirement homes has taken off in European countries but has yet to be fully integrated here in Malaysia. Here, it is still considered a ‘shameful’ thing to send your parents to a retirement home. But with the rise in working adults, people are rarely at home. In time, the idea will take off in Malaysia.”

Mulpha is exploring opportunities of building retirement villages in China. “China’s one child policy is leading to a lack of young resources to look after the elderly. Retirement homes are much in need there,” Lee said.

In line with the rebranding, he introduced his new team: Wayne Wong as the general manager of sales and marketing and Robert Marek as the general manager of residence and resort at Leisure Farm during the interview. Also present was chief financial officer Eric Lee.

“It’s about creating value for the long term. That’s why we got the best in the industry to join us,” he said.

Wong previously worked at Bandaraya Developments Bhd and Marek at Conrad Hong Kong.

Lee highlighted recent developments at Leisure Farm Resort, Mulpha International’s award-winning resort township. Recently, eight units of Luxury Villas, a build-and-sell product, were sold at between RM8 million and RM12 million. The development has a gross development value (GDV) of RM80 million.

Next to be launched in the township is Bayou Creek’s Phase 7B bungalow and semi-detached units. There are 57 units altogether comprising 40 semi-detached homes and 17 bungalows.

Nestled among indigenous flora and fauna, the development is built along a water catchment area that is considered to be the heart of Leisure Farm, according to Lee. With a GDV of RM200 million, Bayou Creek’s Phase 7B is set to be launched in July.

Lee said the strategic location of the township makes it a great investment for buyers. “There are not many places that provide this sort of living. We want to give people the quality and experience. Not only that, being situated very close to the border of Singapore makes it attractive to foreign investors as well.”

He explained that being centrally located amid catalyst projects such as Marlborough College, EduCity and Puteri Harbour in Iskandar Malaysia, Johor helps to boost Leisure Farm’s appeal. The township is also closely located to the Senai International Airport and the North South Expressway.

Upgrading works are being carried out to provide faster and easier access to Metropolitan Singapore and Changi Airport. After completion, the 15-minute trip from the Second Link to Singapore should take about five minutes. With the Pengerang integrated petroleum complex in the vicinity of Johor, Lee said there will be an influx of professionals to Leisure Farm.

Land price for Leisure Farm Resort shoots up
By Cynthia Blemin, www.theedgemalaysia.com May 7th, 2014

KUALA LUMPUR: The bungalow land price for Leisure Farm Resort, one of Iskandar Malaysia’s pioneer exclusive residential and resort developments, has risen by as much as 20 times since its launch back in 1991, and the price is expected to climb further with better connectivity.

The price hike is in tandem with others in Iskandar Malaysia, Johor. For example UEM Sunrise Bhd’s properties in East Ledang, Nusajaya, is currently trending at about RM100 to RM200 per square foot (psf) compared with RM12 to RM16 psf in 1996.

Leisure Farm Resort, developed by Mulpha International Bhd, covers a total of 1,765 acres (714.3ha)of freehold land within Nusajaya.

Yesterday, property developer UEM Sunrise Bhd, signed a collaborative agreement with Mulpha for the development of three sets of roadworks in Iskandar Malaysia that are expected to benefit owners and investors in the vicinity.

Nusajaya Rise Sdn Bhd (NRSB) and Leisure Farm Corp Sdn Bhd (LFC), subsidiaries of UEM Sunrise and Mulpha respectively, will embark on the creation and upgrading of roads in Gelang Patah and Gerbang Nusajaya, that would jointly serve the needs of the population of Gerbang Nusajaya and Leisure Farm Resort.

NRSB and LFC’s 59:41 joint venture is valued at RM107 million, UEM Sunrise said in a statement yesterday.

For owners and investors of real estate in the area as well as Leisure Farm, it will mean greater capital gains and value appreciation, said Mulpha executive chairman Lee Seng Huang.

“As a pioneer in Iskandar Malaysia, I recall that when Leisure Farm Resort was launched in 1991, the bungalow land was transacting at RM6 to RM9 psf, today the same lots are exchanging at 20 times that value, reaching almost RM200 psf,” he added.

With this new interchange, Lee noted that prices should continue to set new records.

As for commuters in the vicinity of Gerbang Nusajaya and Leisure Farm Resort who travel to Singapore, the highway interchange project will significantly cut travel time to and from the “Linkedua” (Second Link bridge in Gelang Patah) to just five minutes from the current 15 minutes, he pointed out.

Lee also noted that the interchange will not just benefit the stakeholders of Gerbang Nusajaya and Leisure Farm Resort but will add value to the overall Iskandar Malaysia, improving infrastructure and connectivity.

Mulpha has leveraged on its expertise abroad to become Malaysia’s largest real estate investor and developer in Australia — owning world-class assets that include Sanctuary Cove and InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort in Queensland, InterContinental Sydney, Norwest Business Park Sydney, The Hotel School Sydney, Bimbadgen Estate in New South Wales’ Hunter Valley and the world-renowned and award-winning Hayman Great Barrier Reef.

Meanwhile, UEM Sunrise executive director Datuk Izzaddin Idris said the joint venture will create a mutually beneficial transport ecosystem around Gerbang Nusajaya, Gelang Patah and Leisure Farm Resort, which are located in close proximity to each other.

“It will also enhance accessibility to and from the area, putting in place good infrastructure for other catalytic developments to thrive in Gerbang Nusajaya,” he added.

The strategic partnership with Mulpha will further develop Nusajaya as a driving economic force in the region, Izzaddin noted.

ckchung, in the world of stock market trading, despite fundamentals and technicals and other forces of variables, there are infinite possibilities! Just like a recent sad episode in aviation industry by the name of MH370 a commercial plane disappeared mysteriously without (until this material time) any plausible conclusion. Even our global contemporary sophisticated technology is helpless.

I would like to share an extract from an article by KC Lau in the May 2014 issue of Money Compass:
" American entrepreneur and investor Robert D. Arnott said, ' In investing, what is comfortable is rarely profitable.' I think when Robert said "comfortable is rarely profitable,' he didn't really mean the risk tolerance. I think what he is referring to is for us to take some calculated risks."

steven yong, no need for such strong words. The fact that you are snooping around Mulpha forum indicates your selfish interest and motive to gain yet running down others with nasty remarks. You are actually trapping your ownself when calling others "idiots" the moment you engage in this forum!

jeffrey7817, thanks for your input.

fortunebullz, hope your wife gets well soon.

The momentum is picking up.

Meanwhile don't forget to tambah nilai your Mulpha asset ... BUY ... before the price goes too uptrend to be affordable. Remember EARLY birds catch the most worms or rather, early pioneer miners get the most GOLD.
Mulpha International Art Of Investment/Business is clearly revealed in a two-page report carried by Focus Malaysia sometime last May. More details to follow ... Stay tune.

Yapts, could u please give me the Oriental The Busy Weekly link? Thanks. You see, constructive intelligence gathering, sharing & constructive feedback & interaction among members serves to boost members confidence & also (I believe there are) silent investors lurking quietly admist our forum but hungrily swallowing and absorbing all data from our collaborative infobank. Across the spectrum, this will attract more potential investors thereby indirectly creating stronger demand for Mulpha shares. Consequently, the price of Mulpha will increase in value and volume.

Calvin Tan, TQVM for taking out your so precious early Sunday morning time to answer my Q. I FULLY concur with your views and explanation. After putting the q to you and before the answer came, I carried out extensive research into the archives of some digital business publications which I subscribed and other media sources. To my great amazement, my research revealed the reasons for the sluggish inertia of Mulpha International these few years. Some of us may have misunderstood and underestimated Mulpha's management corporate vision, investment and marketing strategies. Perhaps, it is not an overstatement to say that Mulpha's astonishing intrinsic net worth may be better understood through the analogy of a Chinese idiom "crouching tiger, hidden dragon," (wuo hu zhan long) In due time after collating the information resources, I shall post a few documents to substantiate the info we have raised in this forum especially the salient facts raised ny Calvin Tan.

Calvintaneng, got a question: mulpha is nested on a mine of treasures but management failed to optimise it to investors' benefit, why do you think?

Kwl888, yes buy lo. We help u, u help us. We give good info 2 give u confidence to buy. U buy,many people bu, price go up. u happy, we happy, everyone happy.
