Assalamualaikum and Salam Sejahtera.

It is with great pleasure that I pen these introductory words for

this inaugural issue of “Building Beyond Buildings”,

THPROPERTIES’ newsletter. The THPROPERTIES Group has

charted impressive growth over the past few years, and we

hope that this publication will serve to showcase some of these

achievements and the exciting prospects ahead.

‘Building Beyond Buildings’ is the Group’s maxim, and reflects

the attitudes and values of the Group. Centred as we are in

the business of buildings in its many forms, we apply the verb

building assiduously, whether it is to our organisation, to our

people, to our communities or to our legacy. We build wealth.

We build expertise. We build character.

This inaugural issue features our maiden venture overseas, the

Bay Pavilions in Lane Cove, Sydney, Australia. Offering over 200

apartments in five blocks, with water views and adjacent

parkland and approximately 15 minutes from the CBD, the Bay

Pavilions has received tremendous response from Sydneysiders.

Completion is expected at the end of 2015.

A MESSAGE FROM

THE CHAIRMAN

BUILDINGBEYONDBUILDINGS VOL UME 1 | July – December 2014

Assalamualaikum dan Salam Sejahtera.

Kumpulan THPROPERTIES telah mencatatkan pertumbuhan yang memberangsangkan sejak beberapa

tahun kebelakangan ini. Oleh itu, sukacita saya menuliskan kata-kata aluan ini untuk penerbitan

pertama buletin THPROPERTIES “Building Beyond Buildings” di mana kami berharap penerbitan buletin ini

akan dapat mempamerkan sedikit sebanyak pencapaian-pencapaian Kumpulan THPROPERTIES serta

menyingkap prospek-prospek menarik yang akan datang.

'Building Beyond Buildings' adalah kata pepatah Kumpulan THPROPERTIES yang mengungkap intipati

sikap dan nilai-nilai yang didukungi oleh Kumpulan THPROPERTIES. Dalam menjayakan pelbagai

perniagaan yang berkaitan dengan ‘bangunan’, kami mengaplikasikan kata kerja “membangun”

pada segala usaha kami, samada terhadap organisasi, kakitangan kami, masyarakat sekeliling ataupun

warisan yang ditinggalkan. Kami membangunkan kekayaan. Kami membangunkan kepakaran. Kami

membangunkan jatidiri.

Keluaran ulung buletin ini mengetengahkan projek sulung kami di luar negara, iaitu projek “Bay Pavilions”

yang terletak di Lane Cove, Sydney, Australia. Projek ini menawarkan lebih daripada 200 unit pangsapuri

dalam lima blok, dengan pemandangan perairan dan taman-taman bersebelahan serta lokasi yang

hanya kira-kira 15 minit dari pusat perniagaan bandaraya Sydney. Dengan ciri-ciri tersebut, Bay Pavilions

yang dijangka siap pada akhir 2015, telah mendapat sambutan luar biasa dari penduduk sekitar Sydney.

Our flagship development, the 5,119 acre Bandar Enstek has come a long way since its launch in 1999. It is not only the ‘Prime Suburb of KLIA’ , it has itself become the catalyst for the development of the KLIA – Seremban corridor. We provide an update on the development of the township, and details of our latest homes: ‘Hundred East’@enstek – exactly 100 units of spacious linked houses of contemporary design.

Three reputable colleges have been established in Bandar Enstek. The Tunku Kurshiah College, the premier girls’ boarding school in the country with a long and distinguished history, relocated to Enstek in 2014. The Cempaka

International Ladies’ College, the first private all-girls boarding school in Malaysia, has been in Enstek since 2009. They are now joined by the Epsom College in Malaysia, a branch of the famous public school from England, offering a British curriculum to an international student body.

Following the completion of two new Haj and Hotel Complexes in Alor Setar and Kuala Terengganu, the Group is currently constructing two more: one at the KL International Airport and the other in Kuching. Both will feature unique, iconic designs. The Group is also constructing the new Islamic Administrative Complex in Putrajaya, which will centralise various Islamic Religious Departments and Agencies under the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department. In this issue we take a closer look at this landmark building complex . We also turn the spotlight on THP Sinar, the Group’s property and facilities management company, which within a

short space of 3 years is now managing approximately 2.82 million square foot of building and office space. THP Sinar’s contribution to the Group is expected to grow markedly within the next few years.

The Group made a special trip to Kota Kinabalu in 2014, both as a reward to our staff and also to foster and improve teamwork amongst our fast growing team. You will read about the many social and charitable activities enjoyed by our staff, as well as the conquering of Mount Kinabalu! We round off this issue with a look at the impact of GST on the Malaysian property market. Interspersed throughout are sneak previews of exciting developments to come. I hope that in these pages you will catch a glimpse of our ethos and our commitment. Be sure to check out our website at www.th-properties.com.

Projek pembangunan utama kami, Bandar Enstek yang berkeluasan 5,119 ekar, telah berkembang dengan pesatnya semenjak ia dilancarkan pada tahun 1999. Ia bukan sahaja menjadi 'Bandar Pinggiran Perdana KLIA’, malah ia juga adalah pemangkin kepada pertumbuhan koridor KLIA-Seremban. Kami mendedahkan maklumat terkini mengenai

pembangunan bandar baru ini, dan butir-butir rumah terbaru tawaran kami iaitu 'Hundred East@enstek’, 100 unit rumah teres dua tingkat yang luas dengan rekabentuk kontemporari.

Tiga kolej bereputasi telah bertapak di Bandar Enstek. Kolej Tunku Kurshiah, sekolah berasrama penuh perempuan perdana di negara ini dengan sejarahnya yang tersohor, telah berpindah ke Enstek pada tahun 2014. ‘Cempaka International Ladies College', kolej swasta pertama berasrama penuh untuk pelajar perempuan, sudah beroperasi di Bandar Enstek sejak tahun 2009. Kini mereka disertai oleh “Epsom College in Malaysia’ cawangan sekolah swasta yang ternama di England, yang menawarkan kurikulum ala British untuk pelajar-pelajar antarabangsa.

Berikutan penyiapan dua Kompleks Haji dan Hotel baru di Alor Setar dan Kuala Terengganu, Kumpulan THPROPERTIES kini sedang membina dua lagi Kompleks Haji dan Hotel: satu di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur dan satu lagi di Kuching, Sarawak. Kedua-duanya akan menampilkan keunikan dengan reka bentuk ikonik. Kumpulan THPROPERTIES juga sedang membina Kompleks Pentadbiran Islam di Putrajaya, yang akan memusatkan jabatan-jabatan agama Islam dan pelbagai agensi di bawah Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri. Dalam keluaran buletin kali ini, kita akan melihat dengan lebih dekat kompleks bangunan yang bakal menjadi mercu tanda baru di Putrajaya. Seterusnya kami memaparkan THP Sinar, syarikat pengurusan hartanah dan kemudahan Kumpulan THPROPERTIES, yang mana di dalam jangka masa 3 tahun sahaja telah berjaya menguruskan kemudahan harta bangunan serta ruang pejabat, berjumlah 2.8 juta kaki persegi. Sumbangan THP Sinar terhadap Kumpulan THPROPERTIES dijangka akan berkembang dengan ketara dalam tempoh beberapa tahun akan datang.

Kumpulan THPROPERTIES telah mengadakan satu lawatan khas ke Kota Kinabalu pada tahun 2014, bukan sahaja sebagai ganjaran kepada kakitangan tetapi juga untuk memupuk dan meningkatkan semangat kerja berpasukan, ekoran dari pertambahan ketara bilangan kakitangan. Butiran lanjut mengenai pelbagai aktiviti sosial dan kebajikan yang dinikmati oleh kakitangan kami, serta misi menakluk Gunung Kinabalu juga dipaparkan dalam keluaran buletin kali ini. Kami mengakhiri buletin ini dengan melihat kepada kesan GST ke atas pasaran hartanah Malaysia. Ianya diselangi dengan tinjauan menarik pembangunan perumahan yang akan dibangunkan kelak. Saya berharap dengan halaman-halaman yang terdapat dalam buletin ini anda akan dapat menangkap secebis budaya kerja serta komitment kami. Sila layari laman web kami di www.th-properties.com.

COVERSTORY

The 3.2 acres waterfront

residential development is

located at Burns Bay Road,

Lane Cove, a suburb on the

lower north shore of Sydney,

Australia. A stone throw’s away

from the cosmopolitan Lane

Cove and Hunters Hill Villages

and a mere 10km drive or

express bus from Sydney’s CBD,

this beautiful suburb occupies a

peninsula on the Northern side

of Port Jackson (Sydney

Harbour), at the mouth of the

Lane Cove River.

The Bay Pavilions is just a

moment away from great

amenities such as Chatswood

shopping hub, Macquarie Park

and water side recreation

areas, to name a few.

Upgraded access to Burns Bay

Road ensures a seamless

gateway in any direction to the

CBD, the Chatswood and

Parramatta with nearby

Macquarie University and North

Ryde high-tech precinct within

easy reach.

Affording a magnificent view

over Burns Bay, and surrounded

by bushland reserves,

waterways and natural

parklands, Bay Pavilions is truly a

sanctuary within the city, a

world apart from everyday life.

A Strategic Joint Venture

The Bay Pavilions project marks the

first collaboration between

THPROPERTIES and the Piety Group.

With over 20 years of experience

and expertise in the construction

and development industry mainly

in Sydney, the Piety Group has

delivered notably successful

projects such as an upmarket

residential project in Waitara,

Sydney, which was partly funded

by Lembaga Tabung Haji through

its subscription in the Shariah

compliant Waitara Property Fund.

This 50:50 joint venture is envisaged

to create high profile, distinctive

projects through strong

partnerships, innovative design

solutions and cutting-edge

construction methods spanning

over 30 years combined

development experience. With

this partnership, THPROPERTIES

hopes to create its presence and

gain valuable experience in

Australian property development.

LAWATAN KE “NEGERI

BUILDINGRELATIONSHIPS CORPORATE & STAFF EVENTS

Pada bulan Jun 2014, lebih daripada 200 kakitangan serta Ahli Lembaga Pengarah THPROPERTIES telah diterbangkan ke Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

untuk satu program khas yang dikenali sebagai "Lawatan Pengukuhan

Ukhuwwah". Satu program yang sama telah dilaksanakan dua tahun sebelum ini di Pantai Timur Semenanjung.

Objektif program ini adalah untuk merapatkan hubungan di kalangan

kakitangan, yang kebanyakannya bertugas berjauhan di antara satu

sama lain di pejabat-pejabat dan tapak-tapak pembinaan syarikat serta

di bangunan yang diselenggarakan. Ia juga memberi peluang kepada

kakitangan untuk berkunjung ke destinasi yang mungkin belum pernah

mereka lawati sebelum ini.

Semua kakitangan telah menginap di TH Hotel Kota Kinabalu, hotel

berprestasi yang dimiliki oleh Tabung Haji. Antara aktiviti yang disertai

oleh kakitangan di hotel ialah Majlis Makan Malam bertemakan 'Pelangi'.

Kakitangan telah disajikan dengan persembahan kebudayaan,

penyampaian hadiah dan hiburan.

Beberapa siri lawatan ke tempat-tempat menarik di Sabah juga telah

diatur untuk kakitangan iaitu kawasan tanah tinggi yang menghijau di

pedalaman, air laut yang kebiruan dan pulau-pulau yang indah di

persisiran pantai Kota Kinabalu. Tidak dilupakan ialah sajian demi sajian

masakan tempatan Sabah (makanan laut di sini adalah yang paling

segar!) dan, sudah tentu, acara membeli-belah.

Lawatan itu tidak akan lengkap tanpa interaksi dengan penduduk

tempatan, dan kali ini kakitangan telah meraikan anak-anak yatim dan

kanak-kanak miskin dari Tambunan, serta saudara-saudara baru Muslim

dengan jamuan petang.

Bendera Syarikat telah diserahkan oleh Pengerusi

Kumpulan, Dato’ Azizan Abd Rahman kepada ketua

pasukan, Tuan Haji Abd Kadir Sahlan, seorang Ahli

Lembaga Pengarah Syarikat, semasa Majlis Makan

Malam Syarikat di TH Hotel Kota Kinabalu.

Pada awal pagi keesokannya, pasukan yang terdiri

daripada 32 kakitangan yang terpilih memulakan

pendakian mereka. Seluruh pasukan berjaya mencapai

titik transit di Laban Rata (3,800m) untuk berehat

sebelum pendakian terakhir untuk menawan puncak

pada awal pagi 21 Jun 2014.

Menjelang jam 04:30 pagi, satu pasukan enam orang

pendaki yang terpantas telah berjaya mendaki puncak

“Low’s Peak” dan mengibarkan bendera Syarikat di atas

gunung yang tertinggi di negara ini. Dua puluh dua

orang pendaki lain turut berjaya menamatkan

pendakian. Malangnya akibat keletihan, kesejukan dan

kekurangan oksigen, beberapa pendaki tepaksa

berpatah balik sebelum sampai ke puncak.

Berbekalkan semangat pencapaian ini, pasukan

pendaki THPROPERTIES menetapkan sasaran seterusnya

untuk menakluki gunung demi gunung…

Gunung Angsi

Gunung Bunga

Sebagai sebahagian daripada 'Lawatan Pengukuhan Ukhuwwah' ke Kota Kinabalu,

satu misi telah diatur bagi menyahut cabaran mendaki dan menawan Gunung Kinabalu berketinggian 4,095 meter.

Sebagai persediaan, beberapa sesi program latihan dan pemilihan yang rapi telah

dijalankan selama beberapa bulan. Latihan mendaki telah diadakan di Gunung

Angsi (824m), Gunung Bunga (1,430m) dan Gunung Ledang (1,276m). Selain

meningkatkan tahap kecergasan, program latihan juga memupuk semangat

berpasukan yang tinggi dan setia kawan di kalangan para peserta.

How GST Will

Impact Home Prices

& The Property

Market

With the coming implementation of Goods & Service Tax (GST) in April 2015, many Malaysians are concerned with what this bodes for prices in general. It is inevitable that home prices will also be affected. In this article, we explain how home and property prices will be affected

moving forward.

To properly appreciate how

GST will affect home prices, it

is necessary to first

understand how GST works.

Aside from GST, one must

also have an understanding

of the Sales Tax, which is the

existing tax scheme affecting

the property sector. GST will

supplant the Sales Tax come

April 2015.

TAX SCHEME ON RESIDENTIAL

PROPERTY – THE SIMILARITIES

In comparing both tax

schemes, we have to first

identify their similarities.

One similarity between GST

and the existing Sales Tax

scheme is that no taxes are

charged or will be charged

to the consumer on the

purchase of a home /

residential property. For GST,

residential properties fall

under the “Exempt Rated”

basket of goods. (But do take

note that GST will be

charged to the consumer for

commercial property

purchases as commercial

properties are “Standard

Rated”).

However, during the creation of the final

product (also known as the input stage in

tax parlance), under both tax schemes,

developers would incur taxes during

procurement of their inputs and materials.

And this is where the differences start to

become apparent between both tax

schemes. The tax rate for inputs and

materials vary between GST and Sales Tax.

SALES TAX VS GST FOR RESIDENTIAL

PROPERTIES – THE DIFFERENCES

Based on the Sales Tax Act of 1972, basic

building materials such as bricks, cement

and floor tiles fall inside First Schedule

Goods, in which all the goods in this

category will not be subjected to sales tax.

Meanwhile, other building materials fall

inside Second Schedule Goods, in which all

the goods in this category will only be

charged sales tax of 5%.

Under the new GST implementation, all

building materials and services (E.g.

Contractors, engineers) will be subject to

GST with a standard rate of 6%. This will

invariably raise the production cost for

developers.

If you understand how GST works, you will

notice that in most cases, the additional tax

cost is simply passed on to the final

consumer (Standard-Rated goods), or is

claimed back from the government (Zero-

Rated goods). But in this case (Exempt-

Rated), the additional tax

cost is borne by the party

before the final consumer –

The developer. The

developer does not have a

next “victim” in the supply

chain.

This seems like good news for

home buyers as they do not

have to pay GST when

purchasing a home.

However, one should not be

too happy about this. It is no

stretch of the imagination to

think that developers would

try to build in the additional

tax costs into the final sale

price implicitly.

BEFORE & AFTER GST – A

COMPARISON

The tables below show a

comparison between the

cost of a new property

before and after GST. Certain

taxes and costs leading up to

the sale to the final consumer

have been simplified for this

purpose.

Also, an assumption is made

that developers are able to

transfer 100% of all incurred

tax costs over to the

consumer via the sale price.

BUILDINGKNOWLEDGE HOMEBUYERS’ GUIDE

BUILDINGKNOWLEDGE HOMEBUYERS’ GUIDE

The example above shows a

price increase of 3.41% for new

residential properties post-GST

implementation. But there is a

plus point to this.

Overall, new residential

properties may register a lower

overall increase in tax burden

compared to Commercial

Properties that are Standard-

Rated. This is because there still is

the chance that developers may

only transfer some and not all of

their tax cost increases into the

final retail price.

The downside to this is that

where pricing for new

commercial properties will be

cleaner (Sales Price + GST),

pricing for new residential homes

would look inflated. This, in turn,

will undoubtedly have a knock

on effect on prices in the

secondary house market.

CONCLUSION

As a home buyer, it pays to know what the implementation of GST might

bode for home prices moving forward. If you skipped the entire article, here

are all the key insights in a nutshell:

• With GST, there should be a once-off increase in property prices across

the board;

• While developers may not bill home buyers for GST, they could transfer

the costs implicitly via the sale price;

• The overall price increase for new residential properties could be

marginally lower than that for new commercial properties;

• The secondary home market should see a knock on effect in prices.

Armed with this knowledge, you can make a better decision on when to

purchase your home.
