Sr Robert Ting Kang Sung Managing Director CH Williams Talhar Wong and Yeo Sdn. Bhd. (WYWY)

22 NAIM SAPPHIRE Deluxe The residential sector remains the mainstay of Sarawak’s property sector, with more than 43% of transactions contributed by this sector (2016: 10,068/23,347).(Source : NAPiC, Ministry of Finance Malaysia).

We caught up with Sr Robert Ting Kang Sung, the Managing Director of CH Williams Talhar Wong and Yeo Sdn. Bhd. (WYWY), who kindly provided some insights on the local residential property scene.

‘Sarawak has seen a constant increase in prices of residential properties, especially over the last decade with accelerated growth in the last 6 years or so, almost doubling the growth in the last period.

‘Based on compilation by WTWY Research, for the period between 2004 and 2016, the Sarawak All House Price has climbed from around RM185,000 to more than RM400,000 , averaging about 10% per annum. This is a good indication of the sustainability of this sector,’ Ting explained.

He added that the increase in developments have led to the increasing scarcity of development lands in the city area. This in turn has resulted in the trending of high-rise apartment/condominium sector, which is observed to be gaining in popularity. This trend is expected to continue in Sarawak and especially seen in Kuching, the capital city of Sarawak, which is experiencing a growing urban population.

LUXURY HOMES & LIVING SARAWAK 23 ‘Good and prime land, especially those located within the city centre are getting scarce and the prices of such lands had rocketed over the years, creating a need for developers to build upwards to meet the demands of home owners and investors,’ said Ting .

Ting added that the increase in demand for high rise residential units also refl ects the changing lifestyles of the people – with greater wealth and higher income, there is desire to source for better living with convenience, security and facilities.

‘Such developments which are located in prime locations within the city will save daily commuting time to and from home, work and schools. People will also be looking for security and added facilities such as gymnasium, swimming pools, playground and shops,’ said Ting.

He also added that such developments located in prime locations are expected to give better yields and returns.

‘If such developments are located in prime locations, this also means more demand for these developments. As such, investors and home owners can expect stable income on a long term basis from rentals of these properties in cities and towns such as Kuching, Miri and Bintulu.

In short, we are talking about ‘BLUE CHIP’- a BLUE CHIP location, a BLUE CHIP master plan with surrounding amenities ensuring lifestyle convenience and a BLUE CHIP product,’ Ting remarked.

We touched base with them to get ‘up close and personal’ with their interesting concept! a sPaCious minimalist By Caroline Yeo While it’s been thought that modern interiors are cold and minimalist, this unit exudes a sense of comfort and warmth without being cluttered and dark, made possible by the innovative fusion of vibrant and mellow colours. Fundamentally, simplicity, subtle sophistication, texture and clean lines help to defi ne the unit’s modern contemporary design theme. More importantly, the interiors seek to showcase SPACE rather than things. This is achieved by the cleverly chosen versatile furniture and other accessories which allow general household items to be stored properly, hence saving space and avoiding clutter. A great sense of space is the order of the day for this unit! The highlight is undoubtedly the ‘tatami-like’ multi-purpose room, which can be used as a dining area for family gatherings, a work area and converted to a guest room where need be, ALL IN ONE – a defi nite ‘must see’ for everyone! Another interesting feature is the carefully planned ‘double wardrobes’ in one of the bedrooms – here, a wardrobe is nicely placed at both sides of the bed, hence increasing storage space. Come and experience this versatility and innovation!
