KUALA LUMPUR REAL ESTATE REVIEW 2008-2012

With the blessings from fellow participants at SSC Malaysia, we now proudly present you a roundup of notable property and urban developments in the City of Kuala Lumpur and its surrounding environs in the current financial year of 2008/2009; and upcoming, highly-anticipated property launches and planned development projects in 2010 and thereafter.

- INTRODUCTION -

Kuala Lumpur or commonly known as KL, is the capital city of the Federation of Malaysia.

The city began sometime around the late 18th century as a small mining boomtown created by the Industrial Revolution's hunger for raw materials.

Today, KL is one of Asia's most dynamic and popular city destination. The modern and cosmopolitan city, like the country Malaysia, is a melting pot of different cultures of Asia coexisting in perfect harmony.

Most visitors regard Kuala Lumpur for its quirky architecture, cheap shopping and super-cheap dining. It is no wonder that KL is one of Asia's most affordable city to live, play and work.

As a result, KL has seen an enormous amount of highrise residential and hospitality developments within the Golden Triangle area in the last few years. Amid the leafy surroundings, the rising highrises will constantly redefined KL's majestic skyline.

-----------

- KUALA LUMPUR CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT & ENVIRONS -

According to most observers, the Kuala Lumpur property market is expected to experience slower growth, or even perhaps negative growth, in 2009 in line with the ongoing real estate crunch and the global economic slowdown.

The softer demand and the oversupply situation particularly in the retail segment as well as middle to high-end residential properties in selected areas could potentially reduce the number of property launches and drag prices down after reaching new highs in recent years.

In the foreseeable long run, continued urban population growth, introduction of more investor-friendly policies, increased in high quality offerings and the limitation of land bank in strategic areas could increase competition in the property market.

Putrajaya Precinct 4 Waterfront Development

Designed by Studio Nicoletti Associati and Hijjas Kasturi, this award winning residential complex is conceived like a fleet of majestic sail-boats floating in the lagoon. The rib-like structural system forms the outer skin of the sail-boats and gives an important contribution to shadow the inner spaces of the various apartments without interfering with the view of the artificially created lagoon.

The apartments face the opposite sides of the sail-buildings as to create bilateral ventilation, with positive bio-climatic effects. All the buildings will be powered using alternative energy and they will emit about 50% less carbon dioxide than conventional residential complex.

Lot 2C5 Putrajaya Boulevard (proposed)

This specific project of office building faces the main boulevard. The architect was inspired by a storm of seagulls flying on the nearby lake whilst visiting the site one morning. Based on this idea, the new complex is raised out of the water as posts for the seagulls.

The blocks appear as crystal towers enveloped by a metal pattern reproducing the intricate roots system of the mangroves, gigantic trees spread along most of the coastal areas of Malaysia, a precious natural resource that offers a protective action against erosion. The architect wanted to emphasise the uniqueness of this eco-system, offering an iconic gateway between institution and leisure.
