  • WTW Property Market 2004
    WTW Property Market 2004 CONTENTS CHAIRMAN’S FOREWORD 2004 MARKET DIRECTION KUALA LUMPUR & SELANGOR PENANG PERAK KEDAH & PERLIS JOHOR MALACCA NEGERI SEMBILAN PAHANG KELANTAN TERENGGANU SABAH & LABUAN SARAWAK PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WTW NETWORK PROFESSIONAL STAFF WTW Property Market 2004 CHAIRMAN’S FOREWORD We are happy to present our Property Market Report for 2004- a year of promise and expectation. The measure commonly applied in describing the state of the property market is the volume of transactions, in terms of numbers of sale and purchase, and in terms of the consideration realised. In that context, except for the residential sector, all other sectors continue to languish; a description that can be confidently said to prevail everywhere in the country except in the Klang Valley. Any forecast or statement of the property market outlook over the coming year/s based on Mohd Talhar Abdul Rahman this measure would rely almost totally on the consideration of the “tradeability” of the transacted units. Price movements and the number of transactions by themselves belie other critical elements which require deeper probing if the prevailing state of the market is regarded as unacceptable, and therefore requires correction. The market cannot correct itself, particularly when the so-called market-driven property market had during the last decade been afflicted with a fatal dose of supply-demand mismatch. It was not by being market-driven that the malaise developed. The root of it all was the overwhelming focus on “tradeability” of property, rather than on the “occupation” of property and its utility. Other factors merely compound the problem. What we have seen through the seven years post 1997 is the strength of the residential market.

  • For Promoting Private Sector Investment in Infrastructure
    ADB DEVELOPING BEST PRACTICES FOR PROMOTING PRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE ROADS Asian Development Bank The views, conclusions, and recommendations presented here are those of the study consultants, and should not be considered to represent the official views of the Asian Development Bank or its member governments. © Asian Development Bank 2000 ISBN No. 971-561-280-6 Stock No. 010300 Published by the Asian Development Bank P.O. Box 789, 0980 Manila, Philippines For more information on ADB, visit http:\\www.adb.org FOREWORD This report is one of a series of five commissioned by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to identify and recommend best practices to be followed and specific steps to be taken, by ADB’s developing member countries in order to encourage both private sector investment and competition in infrastructure development. The study was financed through a $600,000 regional technical assistance grant - RETA 5753: Developing Best Practices for Promoting Private Sector Investment in Infrastructure. This report focuses on the road sector; the other reports cover the power, water supply, airport and air traffic control, and port sectors. Transport is central to achieving prosperity and the quality of life, to which all countries aspire. Transport policy has pervasive impacts: on economic performance; on the shape and structure of human settlements through its impact upon physical development and economic structures; on the distribution of income; and on the environment. This report develops best practices for promoting private sector investment in the road sector. It defines the objectives of private sector participation, reviews experiences of private sector participation in Asia and elsewhere, examines the degree of success that has been achieved to date, and identifies the key issues that provide the basis for determining best practices.

A careful analysis of the 1999 elec- tion results provides evidence of this New Politics. However, it is possible that the results of the up- coming election might not carry evidence of this New Politics. To comprehend this apparent contra- diction in my argument, I distin- guish between two realms of poli- tics: formal electoral politics in- volving the political parties and non-formal participatory politics often involving NGOs and other community groups who do not necessarily focus on winning elec- tions. Even if the Barisan Nasional (BN) wins the forthcom- ing election, the New Politics will prevail. The BN’s hegemony over Malaysian society will not be as comprehensive as it used to be, again. The Meaning Of New Politics Ethnicity remains a very salient aspect of Malaysian politics. However, whereas ethnicity pre- viously dominated the discourse and practice of Malaysian politics and posed limits on democracy, it no longer does so to the same pre- dictable extent. Recent develop- ments, especially those that oc- curred since 1998, suggest that a new discourse and politics of par- Aliran Monthly : Vol.23(6) Page 2 EDITOR'S NOTE This month’s cover story is about the forth- coming 11th General Election.
