I think bjassets will dispose off its gambling biz probably to bjtoto to make it a syariah compliant counter sooner or later.

Its gambling subsidiary is as follows:
Natural Avenue Sdn Bhd

Natural Avenue Sdn Bhd is the sole and exclusive agent for Sarawak Turf & Equestrian Club to operate number forecast lotteries in Sarawak. The company operates the 1+3D Big / Small, 3D Big and 3D Big Series games and has outlets across Sarawak. Its Regional Offices are located in Kuching, Sibu and Miri.

Already turnaround based on the latest quarter ended 31 mar 2018... with the potential to become a syariah compliant stock after the disposal of its gambling biz in sarawak (if any), at current price, it is a good entry point. :)

The group also has gaming biz in sarawak... below 40sen now is cheap, right? :)

Berjaya Assets Berhad was incorporated in Malaysia and was listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad on 17 August 1978.

Berjaya Assets is the developer of Berjaya Times Square, one of Malaysia’s largest retail and commercial projects which has now become an international landmark for Kuala Lumpur city. The group also owns Natural Avenue Sdn Bhd which is a number forecast operator in the state of Sarawak.

News, Less than one year ago..property project in johor. :)

Ahmad Naqib Idris / August 09, 2017
Berjaya Assets targets 70% occupancy for Berjaya Waterfront

KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 9): Berjaya Assets Bhd aims to increase occupancy of its Berjaya Waterfront development in Johor from 50% currently to 70% by year end, as the group expects to secure new tenants going forward.

Berjaya Assets executive director Koh Huey Min said it has been successful in refurbishing the asset, since acquiring it from Atlan Holdings Bhd for RM325 million in 2012.

She said the group has refurbished the development for less than RM20 million, and has been in talks with a few prospects from China since last year.

“Negotiations are still ongoing. We have also talked to the big brands at Berjaya Times Square which are keen to go in. We will definitely see some increment in occupancy — we are targeting to achieve approximately 70% by year end. With the new tenants, I am confident we can take it to the next level,” said Koh at an investor briefing yesterday.

She said the group has the right to reclaim another 55 acres (22.26ha) of seabed adjacent to the existing site, which will further enhance the development’s value. Koh said the environmental impact assessment has been secured, with the group currently in the midst of submitting the environment management plan and getting planning approval.

She added that the reclamation works can only start next year, as approval will only be secured within three to six months.

The group estimates a reclamation cost of less than RM200 per sq ft, significantly lower than the highest recorded transaction price of RM800 per sq ft for the area.

“Even if I were to give about 50% discount at RM400 per sq ft, we still have a value of about RM1 billion.

“And this is only looking at the value of the land. We have earmarked it for a mixed development project, comprising hotels, residential units and probably hospital facilities, which will definitely push the gross development value beyond RM1 billion.”

She said the reclamation works will take less than two years, but added that Berjaya Assets is not in a hurry to finish the development, considering current market conditions. The development will likely be completed phase by phase.

Asked if Berjaya Assets would consider injecting its assets into a real estate investment trust (REIT), Koh said the group will have to consider restructuring its borrowings to meet requirements for REITs, as well as whether the yields are attractive. She said maybe Berjaya Waterfront Sdn Bhd — which owns the Berjaya Waterfront development — could be turned into a REIT.

“The Berjaya Waterfront project is still light and has potential for growth because the occupancy rate is still at about 50%.”

Malaysia Berjaya Assets Aiming For One Billion Ringgit From Shoplot Sales-Official
August 08, 2017 14:53 JST
By Alexander Winifred
Nikkei Markets
KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 08) -- Berjaya Assets is aiming to get about one billion ringgit (233.4 million) from selling shop lots in iconic Berjaya Times Square building in Kuala Lumpur, and could use the cash to fund acquisition to power growth, its executive director said Tuesday.

"The company is in talks with parties to monetize the shop lot assets," Koh Huey Min said at an analyst conference.

"We're in talks with prospects from China" to take up more space at the company's Berjaya Waterfront hotel-to-shopping complex and is aiming for a 70% occupancy rate by the end of this year from the current 50%, Koh said.

The comments come as Berjaya Assets, controlled by lottery-to-retail tycoon Vincent Tan, plans to further diversify its business as revenue from its core gaming business continues to dwindle.

Revenue from the company's Natural Avenue unit, the largest lottery operator in Malaysia's Sarawak state, will be surpassed by income from property business in 2017, Koh said. The company plans to focus on its property and newly acquired auto assembly business even as it mulls exiting the gaming business to comply with Shariah rules, she added.

Shariah refers to Islamic law that among other things bans alcohol, charging of interest, speculation or benefiting to the detriment of the public good.

"We want to focus on the property and car assembly business, and at the same time, meet Shariah requirement," Koh said.

In May, Berjaya Assets completed the acquisition of Oriental Assemblers, which currently makes 40,000 vehicles mainly for the group. It could raise production by building a new plant on an existing land asset, Koh said without elaborating.

Berjaya Assets plans to start reclamation work on a Johor project in one-two years, Koh said.
