Chuang's China Acquires Central Plaza, a Commercial Property in KL at HK$336 Million Eyeing Property Markets along the Belt & Road (Hong Kong, 7 December 2017) - Chuang's China Investments Limited ("Chuang's China" or "the Group") (HKSE: 0298) announced that the Group acquired Central Plaza, a commercial property in Kuala Lumper, Malaysia, at an aggregate consideration of MYR175.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$336.0 million) by entering into the sale and purchase agreement with Chuang's Consortium International Limited (HKSE: 0367).

Located at the heart of central business district and prestigious shopping area of Kuala Lumper, Central Plaza is adjacent to Pavilion KL, which is also the landmark shopping complex in Jalan Sultan Ismail. The 29-storey commercial building has a total gross floor area of 382,000 square feet, offering a total 195,000 square feet of retail and office area, as well as 298 car parking spaces with total area of 128,000 square feet. As at 30 November 2017, the occupancy rate of Central Plaza was approximately 71%.

According to the valuation as appraised by an independent valuer, Central Plaza was valued at MYR175.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$336.0 million) as at 30 November 2017. On an estimated monthly rent of about MYR875,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$1.7 million), the gross rental yield of Central Plaza is approximately 6%.

Miss Ann Li Mee Sum, Deputy Chairman of Chuang's China, stated "Central Plaza is another major overseas investment project after the Group's acquisition of London office last year. In addition to the expansion in geographic coverage, this acquisition also makes good use of the Group's cash on hand to expand our property portfolio and thus enhance our recurring rental income. Under the 'Belt and Road' initiative and its development strategy, the Sino-Malay relations in economy and trading are heightening in recent years. More and more Chinese enterprises invest in Malaysia and set up their offices in the area that promote vigorous growth in infrastructure as well as economic and tourist development. Benefiting from the booming local economic activities, coupled with Central Plaza's prime location and comprehensive commercial facilities, the Group is confident about the growth prospects and returns of this project."
