Interesting, same as gamuda-mmc mrt case, now, HSR for ytl-tabung haji, surely the same :)

Reinstate the HSR project as soon as possible
2019-12-19 18:35

Given the tremendous economic value of the HSR project to both Malaysia and Singapore, it is necessary for it to be implemented as soon as possible.

Sin Chew Daily

Prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad confirmed that the KL-Singapore high speed rail project, which has been put on hold until after May 31 next year, would go ahead albeit at a reduced scale in a bid to cut cost.

After the PM confirmed that one of the HSR stations would be in the reinstated Bandar Malaysia project, it means the KL-Singapore HSR project is put back on the right track.

The project was a benchmark development item of the previous BN administration. However, after Pakatan Harapan came to power last year, the project was shelved owing to excessively high construction cost.

When asked by the media on a number of occasions, Mahathir even said Malaysia did not need any high speed train at this moment.

It remains controversial whether the HSR project will be a white elephant or one that will really benefit the people and economy of both Malaysia and Singapore.

Having said that, the KL-Singapore HSR project does have its value and will significantly relieve the perennial traffic congestion on the Johor Causeway as well as the Second Link, offering a convenient alternative to flight. This is poised to promote commercial activities and social visits among the people of both countries.

From what we understand, the Malaysian government has not done nothing over the period when the HSR project was on hold. Instead, it was contemplating how to maximise the project's spin-off effects on the national economy.

According to a Singapore media report last month, the Malaysian government had adopted a new development blueprint to construct an economic corridor from Bandar Malaysia along the HSR route all the way to Iskandar Malaysia in Johor. Once the blueprint gets the nod of the Economic Action Council (EAC), the project could be revived earlier than anticipated.

Once approved, the economic corridor will connect the existing development centres such as KLIA Aeropolis, the Vision Valley in Negeri Sembilan, and Iskandar Malaysia in Johor, along with the many towns on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

However, the government is still looking into ways of reducing the cost, and land acquisition and station construction cost have been identified as key factors that will lower the overall cost.

Now that the government has confirmed to go ahead with the KL-Singapore HSR project, and with the deferment deadline arriving very soon, it is imperative for the relevant government departments to finalise the details in order to negotiate with their Singapore counterparts with the hope the project can be revived very soon.

Given the tremendous economic value of the HSR project to both Malaysia and Singapore, it is necessary for it to be reinstated as soon as possible. Do bear in mind that the cost of construction materials will keep rising, and if we allow the project to be delayed further, we may not be able to effectively slash the construction cost.

Japan's first Ritz-Carlton Reserve to land in Niseko
Malaysia's YTL Hotels also opens serviced apartment complex in Hokkaido

SHINICHI ARAKAWA, Nikkei staff writer
DECEMBER 07, 2019 12:30 JST

Niseko's stellar champagne powder snow attracts wealthy skiers and luxury hoteliers from around the world.
NISEKO, HOKKAIDO -- The chief of YTL Hotels on Thursday said his company will keep bulking up its luxury presence in the booming Niseko winter resort town, which has become a magnet for international capital.

At a news conference, Mark Yeoh, an executive director of Malaysia's YTL conglomerate, said the company will spend around 5 billion yen ($46 million) annually as it adds hotels and other facilities at its Niseko Village resort, located at the foot of the Niseko Annupuri volcano.

Yeoh, who is responsible for YTL Hotels and Resorts, said the high occupancy rates at Niseko hotels act as a strong impetus for further development.

Overseas hotel chains have been flooding into Niseko, lured by the area's stellar champagne powder snow and the growing wave of skiers attracted to it.

YTL Hotels's next addition to Niseko will be a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, the first hotel of this brand in Japan. The luxury inn will open in 2020, and the Malaysian company will follow that up with more hotels under other Marriott International brands.


Mark Yeoh says Niseko hotels' high occupancy rates are driving further development in the resort town.
Yeoh said his company will tailor its hotels to Niseko. He also indicated an interest in working with Sapporo on the city's bid to host the Winter Olympics and Paralympics in 2030. If the bid is successful, some events may be held in Niseko, about 90 km southwest of Sapporo. YTL Hotels would be willing to do research and hold talks with the local government about expanding its facilities in Niseko, Yeoh said.

Hinode Hills, which opened on Sunday, is the fourth luxury property that the company operates in Niseko Village. The six-story hotel has 79 apartments starting at around 60,000 yen per night. Part of the company's Hotel Residence brand, Hinode Hills' units are equipped with kitchens, laundry areas and other conveniences.

Potential revival of HSR seen as catalyst for YTL

Potential revival of HSR seen as catalyst for YTL

PETALING JAYA: A potential revival of the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High Speed Rail (HSR) project is a catalyst for YTL Corp Bhd’s construction division, according to MIDF Research.

It said construction currently accounts for 3% of YTL’s pretax earnings, while its construction earnings has seen progressive improvement in recent quarters given progress in the Gemas-Johor Baru double tracking project.

It was reported that Malaysia was exploring proposals to reduce cost of the HSR project, which could mean a potential revival of the project.

YTL was previously appointed as one of two project delivery partners (PDP) for the now deferred HSR project. YTL submitted a bid for the role via a 70:30 joint venture with TH Properties Sdn Bhd (YTL-THP).

The other consortium appointed for the PDP role previously was Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd-Gamuda Bhd (50:50). YTL-THP was selected for the Southern portion of the alignment (Johor portion) and MRCB-Gamuda for the Northern portion (KL to state border of Malacca-Johor).

Moreover, previously reported contenders for the now deferred HSR project were Gamuda, IJM and Naza’s respective consortiums.

“A drag however, comes from weak Power Seraya performance given the continued overcapacity situation in Singapore power generation. Hyflux’s woes could be a blessing in disguise as it could mean the elimination of excess capacity should there be a dismantling gas supply agreements to Hyflux’s plants as part of its restructuring, if any. Other than Singapore power, there continues to be concerns surrounding the 1Bestari project, expected to expire mid-2019, which will be re-tendered out,“ MIDF cautioned.

However, the research house said YTL is backed by a solid track record given involvement in the construction and operation of the RM2.4 billion Express Rail Link project which was also one of the cheapest that has been rolled out nearly two decades ago at just RM42 million/km.

YTL’s order book is estimated at RM8 billion comprising mainly the Gemas-Johor Baru double tracking project which was not impacted by the Pakatan Harapan government’s review of infrastructure projects in the past eight months.

The construction of YTL Power’s Tanjung Jati coal power plant in Indonesia was supposed to add an estimated RM4 billion, but progress on the financial close of this project has been delayed, presumably given the upcoming Indonesian elections.

MIDF maintained its “neutral” call on YTL for the meantime at an unchanged target price of RM1.15 a share. Key catalysts for a review of its call include progress in Tg Jati power plant project, improvement in Seraya earnings, and potential revival of the HSR project.

YTL Corp Bhd managing director Tan Sri Francis Yeoh Sock Ping the group had explored the concept of a high-speed rail service to facilitate seamless travel between the two cities since the 1990s

KUALA LUMPUR: YTL Corp Bhd is “deeply” passionate about the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high speed rail (HSR) project, its managing director Tan Sri Francis Yeoh Sock Ping.

This was due to the fact that the group had explored the concept of a high-speed rail service to facilitate seamless travel between the two cities since the 1990s, Yeoh said.

“We are excited that the project is now coming to fruition and strongly believe that it will be transformative – connecting communities in Malaysia and Singapore – while playing a critical role in our country's future economic growth as a vital component of the country's blueprint to develop world-class rail infrastructure,” he said in a statement.

YTL and consortium partner Tabung Haji were appointed as one of two MyHSR Corp’s project delivery partners for the Malaysian civil infrastructure portion of the HSR. The other PDP was the Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd-Gamuda Bhd consortium.

As a PDP, the consortia are responsible for developing the detailed design and delivering the project’s infrastructure works.

Tabung Haji chief executive officer Datuk Seri Johan Abdullah said the fund’s participation in the venture would very well fit into its investment strategy that provides benefit to its more than nine million depositors.

“Tabung Haji and the YTL Group have a long-standing partnership spanning more than 20 years, having together built the Express Rail Link project that connects Kuala Lumpur International Airport and klia2 to KL Sentral.

“Our partnership has successfully harnessed the capabilities and resources of both companies as we are driven by a common vision of creating long-term progress and economic growth in Malaysia.”

Iced investor you are so lucky to get a decent answer to your question. When I asked this question I had an unpleasant reply from an unpleasant person. I don't know why people like to reply me in an unpleasant way... What have I done to deserve this?

Performance of YTL group in the last 5 years was miserable. Revenue was up but year net profit went down 5 consecutive years. If this is not a family owned business, the CEO is gone long time ago...LOL

@Jarklp Yes I quite agree, the numbers do not lie. The world has changed in past few years but the company has not.

Cement generates 8% of the worlds carbon emissions yet YTL are investing in these higher polluting industries when the global trends are changing so quickly. We have upcoming projects in shale oil, coal fired power etc. And all this with no innovation coming out of the company.

If some people on this forum are right, none of this will matter and the company will become very profitable very soon and everyone will be happy. Just look at all the climate problems already happening all around the world, simply ignoring these and pretending nothing will happen is just asking for trouble.

regardless of climate change, cement is essential for the construction industry throughout the world. people can talk about climate change till the cows come home :) cement industry is in every country in the world :)

The take over LAF share at high price is a terrible decision. Cement is quite sensitive control items. Even full control of Laf, they not even can simply increase cement price. They still need to compete with hong leong group cement manufacturing that still generate profit even dint increase cement price because of good cost management. They can't monopoly cement industry by take over big portion of Laf share
