ytl is going to fly again? 

The two separate tenders are for the appointment of the Section 4 (S.4) Land Consultant and the Environmental, Social and Heritage Impact Assessment Consultant.

PETALING JAYA: MyHSR Corp Sdn Bhd, the government’s project delivery vehicle for the Kuala Lumpur- Singapore High Speed Rail (HSR) project, has launched two tenders to appoint consultants for the project to assist with regulatory submissions to the relevant authorities.

The two separate tenders are for the appointment of the Section 4 (S.4) Land Consultant and the Environmental, Social and Heritage Impact Assessment Consultant.

MyHSR Corp said deliverables from both sets of consultants will form part of the regulatory process as prescribed by the Land Public Transport Act 2010 (Act 715).

The S.4 (Act 486) Land Acquisition Plan and Land Acquisition Plan booklet as well as the Environmental Impact Assessment will be displayed to the public during the requisite Railway Scheme Public Inspection process planned for early next year.

MyHSR Corp chief executive officer Datuk Mohd Nor Ismal Mohamed Kamal encouraged local firms with relevant experience to participate in the tenders to provide expertise and assist on the land acquisition, environmental, social and the heritage impact assessment activities.

“These activities are a critical precursor component for the project and have significant impact to the overall delivery of the KL-Singapore HSR project.

“The ensuing S.4 gazettement of a corridor width of 500 meters will facilitate additional works for the project, such as soil investigation and utility mapping, which will allow further refinement of the HSR alignment prior to the land acquisition exercise, ” he said in a statement.

He added that the planned environmental, social and heritage impact assessments will identify the potential sensitive receptors along the project corridor and mitigation measures will be proposed to minimise the impacts.

CGS-CIMB Research infrastructure analyst Sharizan Rosely told StarBiz that the tenders are preliminary consultancy tenders as part of preparatory items ahead of the targeted alignment display next year.

“It can be viewed as a positive sign that things are progressing somewhat.

“They need consultants to review and relook at the original land required for the HSR if indeed it needed changes, ” he said.

The government had recently announced that it would continue discussions with the Singapore government on the HSR, following its decision to resume the project recently.

The project was suspended in 2018 for the Malaysian government to identify opportunities to reduce the cost of the project.

The Economic Planning Unit, under the Prime Minister’s Department and MyHSR Corp were tasked to identify these cost reduction options while maintaining the socio-economic benefits to be generated by the HSR project.

be patient, HSR is real :) KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 28): UEM Edgenta Bhd is keen to participate in the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High-Speed Rail (HSR) and the Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) projects as it actively explores opportunities in the rail sector.

“If there are areas where the tender meets our current capabilities we definitely will participate,” said the group’s newly-installed managing director and CEO Syahrunizam Samsudin.

“In the past we have done projects like LRT (light rail transit) extension and we have the capabilities in rail, particularly as project management consultant or ICE (independent consulting engineer). [We’re also] looking at system engineering,” he added in a media briefing on UEM Edgenta’s growth outlook.

Syahrunizam said UEM Edgenta is currently relooking at the available areas [in the two projects] and would participate in the tendering process by year end “if the government announces anything” on them.

Two days ago, MyHSR Corporation Sdn Bhd launched two tenders to procure the services of consultants to assist with regulatory submissions to the relevant authorities in relation to the HSR project.

The tenders are for the appointment of Section 4 Land Consultant and the Environmental, Social and Heritage Impact Assessment Consultant for the bilateral project.

This is in accordance with the government’s move to resume discussions on the project, as announced in May. The project was last quoted to be around RM60 billion compared with the original price tag of RM110 billion.

Meanwhile, Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong on July 30 said that the RTS project is estimated to cost RM10 billion, of which 61% would be funded by the Singapore government and the rest by the Malaysian government.

He said the project involves two phases, with phase one to commence in early 2021 until the end of 2024, encompassing the construction stage or development of civil structures.

Phase two will start from early 2025 until the end of 2026, involving the construction of systems such as signals, rolling stock, telecommunications, and system testing.

UEM Edgenta Bhd fell into the red in the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 (2QFY20) with a net loss of RM26.91 million, due to a one-off impairment of RM50 million on unsold property inventories.

This compares to a net profit of RM34.36 million it recorded in 2QFY19, and a net profit of RM11.16 million in 1QFY20.

Quarterly revenue also fell 24.68% to RM448.47 million from RM595.42 million in 2QFY19. The figure is also 10.64% lower compared with RM501.87 million in 1QFY20.

For the cumulative six months, UEM Edgenta posted a net loss of RM15.76 million, against a net profit of RM67.02 million last year, while revenue declined 14.48% to RM950.34 million from RM1.11 billion.

Notwithstanding this, Syahrunizam said the group remains on a strong footing backed by its healthy balance sheet, low gearing ratio of 0.33 times, strong order book of RM12.2 billion and ongoing cost rationalisation initiatives.

“On top of this, the group also operates in defensive sectors, namely healthcare and infrastructure, which comprise more than 80% of our revenue and profit. The group boasts long-term growth prospects and defensive characteristics to navigate short-term volatility.

“Prudent cost management is a priority we have set for the remainder of the year. Our technology-driven platforms and solutions will form the backbone of our future offerings to the market as we continue to remain agile and resilient in the post Covid-19 era,” he added.

Since last recession, 2008/2009, they already have more or less the same amount of money. What is the point of having billions and not using it to expand the business? YTL is a hopess company, they are too rich to take any risk, they goal is to maintain the wealth, not grow. YTL is a hopeless counter, slowly one by one they delist their counter and one by one the market value drop.

ytl was announcing Dividend like genm and Genting BHD but with more cash in hand at rm11bil Likewise, at the closing price of RM3.54, Genting’s dividend yield would come at about 3.67%, if the flagship company also declares a final dividend of 6.5 sen per share. This is in comparison to a yield of 2.2% a year ago at the share price of RM5.92.

The two stocks are trading at their 11-year low if we disregard the troughs in mid-March.

GENM’s share price is still down by almost 30%, while Genting is 40% down year to date.

Sharizan opined that another mega rail project, the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high-speed rail (HSR), could be included in the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP) due to a lack of infrastructure projects currently.
“We retain our sector 'neutral' call [for the construction sector] and continue to prefer YTL Corp Bhd and Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd given their track records of securing sizeable HSR scopes in 2018.
“Downside risks include political uncertainties and the likelihood of a snap election in 4Q20 (the fourth quarter of 2020),” he added.
To recap, in the latest issue of The Edge Malaysia weekly, it was reported that top officials of the Ministry of Transport were mooting a reversion to the original ECRL alignment.
The old alignment included 24 stations and the Malaysia-Thailand border town of Pengkalan Kubor and Wakaf Baru in Kelantan.

Japanese yen surged on safe-haven buying after Prime Minister Shinzo Abe (file pic) resigned for health reasons.

NEW YORK: Global equity markets rose to a new high on Friday as U.S. consumer spending in July suggested a strong economic rebound lies ahead, while the Japanese yen surged on safe-haven buying after Prime Minister Shinzo Abe resigned for health reasons.

The dollar neared lows last seen in May 2018, retreating from Thursday when the Federal Reserve said it will allow inflation to run faster for longer, a stance that will likely lead to a period of prolonged low interest rates.

Longer-term yields fell and gold rose more than 2% as investors sought a perceived store of value in the likelihood of higher inflation and real rates that are negative.

U.S. consumer spending increased more than expected last month, raising expectations for a sharp rebound in growth in the third quarter, though momentum could ebb as the COVID-19 pandemic lingers and fiscal stimulus dries up.

A U.S. Commerce Department report showed a rise in personal income after two straight monthly declines, while monthly inflation pushed higher.

"There's a big bounce on Main Street, the economic data every day on Main Street is bouncing higher," said Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Leuthold Group in Minneapolis.

People are becoming more optimistic about the economy but underneath that is a healthy dose of caution as "Main Street is still a mess," he said. "As the market keeps going up, more and more of them are reducing their bearish bets a little bit and putting more into stocks, which is helping drive the market higher," he said.

MSCI's benchmark for global equity markets rallied 0.58% to a new closing high. Wall Street also rallied, with the S

Executive chairman Tan Sri Francis Yeoh Sock Ping said the rise in revenue was contributed mainly by its construction and cement segments.

PETALING JAYA: YTL Corp Bhd’s revenue rose 6.2% to RM19.17bil for the 12 months ended June 30 versus RM18.05bil a year ago, while profit before tax (PBT) stood at RM430mil compared with RM1.03bil a year ago.

Executive chairman Tan Sri Francis Yeoh Sock Ping said the rise in revenue was contributed mainly by its construction and cement segments.

“After eliminating the losses arising from fair value changes, impairments and inventory write-downs of RM226.2mil, the group recorded PBT of RM656.2mil for the current financial year, ” Yeoh said.

He said the April-June quarter involved some of the most stringent parts of the ongoing movement control order (MCO) in Malaysia and various lockdowns and border closures in countries where the group operates.

“These measures have hampered the operations of certain parts of their businesses during various periods of the quarter, ” he said.

Nevertheless, he said the group’s long-term strategy of investing in regulated assets that provide essential services such as water and electricity continue to operate profitably during even the most difficult times, albeit at lower levels.

On prospects, YTL Corp said the impact of Covid-19 in the longer term cannot be accurately estimated, as there are still significant uncertainties on how and when the pandemic can be contained and for full business activities to resume.

YTL Corp’s share price slid 3.5 sen or 4.96% to 67 sen today, for a market capitalisation of RM7.14 billion. Year-to-date, the stock has fallen by 32%.
