Datuk Edmund Kong has been in the CEO post for one and a half years. It is about time the results of his works starts to show. Hope for good results from this property development veteran. Datuk Edmund Kong is the man who crafted Desa Park City. May be he can craft Emerald West into "Emerald Park City".
Price has been stagnant since Kong took office as CEO. I don't see anything major has been done since he took office. There has not any major launching or value creation by him.
There is no big launchings from Guocoland for the last 18 months. Emerald West is still selling "The Rise" which was launched 3 years ago. Comparing to other developers like Sunway, MKH, Tropicana and Ecoworld, Guocoland is very passive.
No catalysts, earnings will be terrible this/next week. Share price to trend towards RM1 as people sell property counters, which have risen this year far ahead of fundamentals. Property market to only recover H2 2018 at earliest. Hold your horses and wait for a better bargain.
After preparation work for 20 months, Datuk Kong is showing his experience and ideas now. This man is the key person in creating Desa Park City. He is now instituting his ideas into Emerald Rawang, Emerald Hills and Emerald Square in Cheras.
Guocoland is selling its completed but unsold units in Damansara City and Oval KLCC. I think the new management will clear the stocks as much as possible to turn them into cash and profit.
There are still values for 3 properties in Damansara City that can be unlocked. Sofitel Hotel, DC Mall and Guocoland Building will be sold to its related Tower REIT from now to 2 years time. Guocoland will book profit once they are sold.
Went to Damansara City last week. Hotel Sofitel is opened. Hong Leong Bank is occupying all the space of one tower. Guocoland is occupying part of the other smaller building. More than 65% of DC Mall has been occupied
Guocoland sold part of its land, abt 640ha in Sepang to Putrajaya Holdings. PJH planned to develope the land into an eco-type resort along the beach.
According to The Star, the first phase of the development will be a 27-hole Eco Link Golf Course supported by a number of three-to five-star hotels. After that, PJH will build commercial, residential, retail and wellness centre in the city.
The first phase of the project will take off in the third quarter of 2018.
The new government will use some measures to help the Rakyat to own houses especially in the affordable sector. Currently, the distribution of EPF A/C 1 and A/C 2 is 70% and 30%. If the new government can change it to 60% and 40%. That will help the potential buyers a lot. Many of the prospective buyers who are at the border line will become eligible to get bank loans. The demand for residential properties will increase a lot.
Guocoland's Phase 1 condo project (592 units) in Alam Damai, Cheras is selling well. Confirmed sales has reached 60% mark. Company will be launching the remaining Phase 2 condo units (786 units) and 181 units of landed property in the first quarter of 2019. The total GDV of emerald Hills is RM900mil.

Who is really in charge of GUOCO Malaysia, is Datuk Kong? If he is in charge, after more than 2 years why GUOCO Malaysia financially so bad? Really disappointed. Why GUOCO Malaysia can't perform as expected?
