I've research LED downlights for my new place, it seems CREE have a good name http://cr6.creeledlighting.com/#/content/pages/8.html but they are very expensive! They are not sold in Malaysia, I got the price from the Hong Kong distributor it was HKD700 per light that's RM280, not practical! I've found a China made one from Shenzhen for USD25 per light using Phillips LED. That seems reasonable and it will bring about savings in the electric bill in the long run. I will pick them up when I visit HK over CNY, make a day trip to Shenzhen.

I've also seen a new shop open in Mid Valley concentrating solely on LED lighting, but most of the stuff there were selling is China made with a heavy mark up! LED is definitely the way forward!

probably CREE, they seem like the main player in this line. US design but of course made in China!
