  • For Immediate Release
    For Immediate Release One Central Macau Residences achieves phenomenal sales performance 80% of luxury development’s total units sold generating HK$5.2 billion in revenue Hong Kong and Macau, 29th November 2006 —Shun Tak Holdings Limited (“Shun Tak”) and Hongkong Land Limited (“Hongkong Land”) said that response from the market to its luxury development One Central Residences has been phenomenal since the commencement of its private presale immediately followed by the public launch four days ago. As of 12:00noon today, over 500 units have been sold. Together with the 127 units sold in previous bloc transactions, approximately 630 units have now been transacted, representing 80% of total units available, generating HK$5.2 billion in revenue. Both companies expect the strong momentum to carry into December, as enquiries and appointments continue to pour in. One Central Residences, located in Nape, Macau, has attracted serious interest from international investors and the general public since its inception. Two bloc sales were concluded in November; Sjóvá-Almennar tryggingar hf, the largest Icelandic insurance provider, purchased all 68 units in Tower 4, followed by the Macau Property Opportunities Fund, a closed-end investment company listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange, purchasing 59 units in Tower 6. Prior to the public launch, the developers received more than 500 cashier orders through real estate agents or directly from prospective buyers, and all 72 units offered on the first day of the launch were sold out in the first three hours, demonstrating public interest and confidence in the property. The developers have since been releasing additional units to meet market demand.

  • When Is the Best Time to Go to Hong Kong?
    Page 1 of 98 Chris’ Copyrights @ 2011 When Is The Best Time To Go To Hong Kong? Winter Season (December - March) is the most relaxing and comfortable time to go to Hong Kong but besides the weather, there's little else to do since the "Sale Season" occurs during Summer. There are some sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year but 90% of the clothes are for winter. Hong Kong can get very foggy during winter, as such, visit to the Peak is a hit-or-miss affair. A foggy bird's eye view of HK isn't really nice. Summer Season (May - October) is similar to Manila's weather, very hot but moving around in Hong Kong can get extra uncomfortable because of the high humidity which gives the "sticky" feeling. Hong Kong's rainy season also falls on their summer, July & August has the highest rainfall count and the typhoons also arrive in these months. The Sale / Shopping Festival is from the start of July to the start of September. If the sky is clear, the view from the Peak is great. Avoid going to Hong Kong when there are large-scale exhibitions or ongoing tournaments like the Hong Kong Sevens Rugby Tournament because hotel prices will be significantly higher. CUSTOMS & DUTY FREE ALLOWANCES & RESTRICTIONS • Currency - No restrictions • Tobacco - 19 cigarettes or 1 cigar or 25 grams of other manufactured tobacco • Liquor - 1 bottle of wine or spirits • Perfume - 60ml of perfume & 250 ml of eau de toilette • Cameras - No restrictions • Film - Reasonable for personal use • Gifts - Reasonable amount • Agricultural Items - Refer to consulate Note: • If arriving from Macau, duty-free imports for Macau residents are limited to half the above cigarette, cigar & tobacco allowance • Aircraft crew & passengers in direct transit via Hong Kong are limited to 20 cigarettes or 57 grams of pipe tobacco.

  • Shun Tak and Hongkong Land Jointly Launched Phenomenal New Arterial Landmark of Macau * * * the Proud Unveiling of “One Central”
    For Immediate Release Shun Tak and Hongkong Land Jointly Launched Phenomenal New Arterial Landmark of Macau * * * The Proud Unveiling of “One Central” Macau, 3rd October 2006 — Shun Tak Holdings Limited (“Shun Tak”) and Hongkong Land Limited (“Hongkong Land”) jointly launched their One Central project, a waterfront mixed-used project in Nape Area, Macau. The top management of the two companies were both present at the opening ceremony held today in the Macau Tower Convention and Entertainment Centre, which offers a direct view to the progress and development of the project site. The sale of the residential development named “One Central Residences” is scheduled to be launched in the near future. Ms. Daisy Ho, Deputy Managing Director of Shun Tak, commented, “Strategically located at the heart of the Macau Peninsula, the project name of One Central ideally portrays its unrivaled geographical advantage. As one of the last sizable property developments available on the Macau Peninsula, One Central is uniquely positioned in a class of its own. As Macau’s first luxury residential development, from its location, architecture design, finishing and facilities, One Central is impeccably first class. One Central Residences will set the new international standards and benchmark for defining ‘luxury residences’. As scheduled to be launched in the very near future, the One Central project is poised to become the focal point in the international front.” Ms. Ho continued and said, “Thanks to the development of new internationally acclaimed casinos and hotels in Macau that brought forth enormous employment opportunities, an influx of quality labor and expatriates, Macau continues to record robust economic growth and a flourishing property market.
