Dear Valued Shareholders, Foreword Malaysia’s economy sustained an average growth of 4.8% in Year 2018; a more moderate pace as compared to 5.9% in year 2017. The Mid-term Review of the 11th Malaysia Plan has forecasted Malaysia’s gross domestic product (“GDP”) to grow between 4.5% and 5.5% for the 2018 – 2020 period. The steady economic growth and the repealing of the Goods and Service Tax should bring about a more moderate pace of infl ation and encourage spending in the country. It was reported that the demand for landed residential property in the southern Johor, especially in the Iskandar Malaysia region, is encouraging despite the slowdown in the property market. The property outlook in Iskandar Malaysia remains attractive, adding that developers should come out with the right products to attract potential buyers. 2018 has been a challenging year for the Group as the country experiences economic uncertainties mainly due to the change in the local political landscape. IWCity continues to grow and sustain as one of the major property developers in the Iskandar Malaysia region despite the soft Property Market and the uncertain global economic landscape. However, as Iskandar Malaysia has been the home of our landbank since inception, we remain optimistic that Iskandar Malaysia will maintain its position as the country’s foremost economic region and continue its impressive rate of growth. Based on announcement made by the Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) that Iskandar Malaysia has recorded investments of RM32.2 billion throughout 2018 surpassed the annual RM30 billion targets, the committed investments have accumulated to RM285.34 billion in between year 2016 and year 2018. From the fi gure of committed investments, local investors contributed RM177 billion, or 62%, while the remaining RM108 billion is from foreign investors. Company Performance In spite of the various challenges we faced during of RM45.7 million. The Loss After Taxation of RM6.6 the year mainly due to the slowdown of the global million was attributable to the decrease in gross profi t economy, I am presenting herewith, the results for the margins achieved by the Group during FYE 2018 Group for the fi nancial year ended 31 December 2018 of 4.71% as compared to 63.85% for the FYE 2017 (“FYE 2018”).
