Posted by Good123 > 2020-01-08 16:34 | Report Abuse

A buyback benefits shareholders by increasing the percentage of ownership held by each investor by reducing the total number of outstanding shares. In the case of a buyback the company is concentrating its shareholder value rather than diluting it.

Rail Project Review Exercise, Expects Completion by Year End

Kuala Lumpur, 28 June 2019: MyHSR Corporation Sdn Bhd (MyHSR Corp) has successfully
completed two separate open tender exercises to appoint its Technical Advisory Consultant

Both the TAC and CAC tender exercises were open to all qualified companies with relevant
expertise and experience. Over the period of 3 months between April and June 2019, MyHSR
Corp had received numerous interests and proposals from companies comprising both
international and local firms. Upon careful evaluation and completion of the tender process,
MyHSR Corp had appointed Minconsult Sdn Bhd and Ernst & Young (EY) as the TAC and
CAC respectively.
Minconsult Sdn Bhd is a Malaysian multi-disciplinary engineering and project management
firm with experience in numerous local railway projects. Minconsult's railway portfolio

procurement advice and raising finance on complex rail and HSR projects.
MyHSR Corp and its TAC and CAC will now proceed to review the proposed changes to the
KL-SG HSR Project and further identify cost reduction options for the Government of Malaysia.
The TAC focuses on the engineering aspects of the project by reviewing and validating the
proposed infrastructure design changes within Malaysia such as the alignment, stations, and
train maintenance facilities. The CAC focuses on commercial aspects such as developing new
business models, identifying funding and financing options, updating the ridership forecast,
and updating the economic benefits the project will bring to Malaysia.
Dato’ Mohd Nur Ismal Bin Mohamed Kamal, CEO of MyHSR Corp said, “The appointment of
TAC and CAC is a major step in the effort to develop an affordable KL-SG HSR. The solution
will be a holistic one, it will respect the needs of the Government of Singapore, cognisant of
the market expectation of the project sustainability and bankability, and without compromising
on service reliability, journey time and safety.”

World-class entertainment arena for Bristol

By Sharen Kaur - December 3, 2019 @ 12:09pm

YTL Developments UK will transform the gigantic Brabazon Hangars at the former Filton airfield in the north of Bristol, England, into a world-class indoor entertainment arena.

Director Datuk Yeoh Seok Hong said the arena could generate economic activities worth £1.5 billion over 25 years.

The planning application was submitted to the Bristol City Council and South Gloucestershire Council in the middle of last month.

The iconic Brabazon Hangars are housed in a 352m-long and 35m-tall building across 10.5ha. They have been a part of Bristol’s heritage since the 1940s. The building has three interlinked aircraft hangars.

Built in 1946 for the construction of the Brabazon airliner, the building later became the birthplace of Concorde.

The final Concorde flight in 2003 was from Heathrow Airport to Filton.

The Filton airfield ended commercial flights in December 2012, with YTL Power International taking over the site in 2015.

The site will now become a new urban community with more than 2,600 homes, creative workplaces and a vibrant town centre set among public squares and parks.

YTL Developments aims to deliver a “world-class venue for Bristol” that could rival London’s O2 and Birmingham’s NEC in terms of restaurants, concessions, clubs and bars.

The plan includes transforming the central hangar, also known as YTL Arena, into a 17,000-seater multipurpose auditorium, allowing Bristol to host live shows.

The east hangar will be transformed into “Festival Hall”, a breakout area for the main arena show that could also be used for trade shows, exhibitions, conventions and other events.

The west hangar, called “The Hub”, will be opened throughout the year for dining, work and play, with leisure facilities and a space for start-up businesses.

“We are building much more than just an arena. It is a 365-day entertainment destination inside the iconic Brabazon Hangars that will create jobs, bring new businesses to the region and enhance Bristol’s position as a leading European city.

“We will put Bristol on the world map with this massive entertainment complex,” Yeoh told the New Straits Times.

The site would also boast a new train station that would connect to Bristol Temple Meads in less than 15 minutes and a dedicated bus service to the city centre, he added.

It is estimated that the new entertainment destination will attract more than 1.4 million visitors annually.
