U can have your opinion. That was mine as I have tested it many times.

Various developers in Cyberjaya come together in property showcase

http://thestar.com.my/metro/story.asp?file...91&sec=metrobiz

SEVEN major property developers in Cyberjaya will be joining forces for the Cyberjaya Premier Property Showcase that will be held on Sept 22 and 23 at Cyberview Resort and Spa, Cyberjaya.

The seven that will be collaborating for the showcase are Setia Haruman Sdn Bhd, Cyberview Sdn Bhd, Glomac, MCT Consortium, Mah Sing, UEM Land and Emkay Group.

Cyberview Sdn Bhd is the landowner and Cybercity manager for Cyberjaya, while Setia Haruman is the master developer of the city. Both companies are the main stakeholders of Cyberjaya.

Setia Haruman chief operating officer Lao Chok Keang said the event will showcase the diverse range of developments in Cyberjaya to potential residents and investors.

“There will be properties such as high-end residential units, apartments, commercial projects and office suites.

“Cyberjaya started off with office developments some 15 years ago. There has since been a residential boom, and with that came a demand for commercial properties,” he said.

Cyberview managing director Hafidz Hashim said the diverse mix of properties, many of which are integrated development, are good testimonies that live up to Cyberjaya’s tagline as a place to “live, study, work and play”.

“One strong point in Cyberjaya is that all the properties have freehold status,” he said.

“Some of the amenities available in this township are the community clubhouse, Cyberjaya Lake, bus terminal, park and ride facilities, and more than 160 F&B outlets.

“There is also a dedicated transport service to shuttle people to and from this township. Because many multinational corporations set up their global centres here, the service runs on a 24-hour schedule with close to 50 buses transporting people from as far as Klang, Seremban and Kepong to Cyberjaya.”

Hafidz attributed the township’s low crime rate to its high safety and security features, such as a 24-hour monitoring via a CCTV system that is linked to the Cyberjaya Police Station.

“Almost all strategic areas are covered by CCTVs. The township’s linkage to a ready fibre optic network backbone also allows for secured transmission of data,” he said.

Lao said in terms of location, Cyberjaya is the best as it is located between Putrajaya and KLIA on one end, and Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur on the other.

“Cyberjaya is presently linked by five highways — LDP, Elite, MEX, SKVE and NSE, with future highways being planned. It is also linked by rail, via the ERL service,” he said.

Hafidz said Cyberjaya has a daytime population of 53,000 who work at the numerous companies in the township, which includes 35 MNCs and 200 SMEs, or study at any one of the five universities and private colleges there.

“There is also the ELC International School located within the vicinity. The upcoming Centrus Mall and d’Pulze projects in the CBD Perdana areas will inject some retail, entertainment and leisure elements into Cyberjaya,” he said.

The Cyberjaya Premier Property Showcase will feature property talks on investing in Cyberjaya by mapmaker and research consultant Ho Chin Soon and representatives from the various participating property developers, as well as a home security presentation by a safety consultant.

There will also be guided bus tours around the township, Q&A contests, games and balloon sculptures for children.

Depending on the property developer, Lao said the incentives for buyers include rebates, developer interest bearing scheme, and financial or furnishing package.

“The bus tour will allow visitors to see what Cyberjaya has to offer and evaluate its potential.

“The show units for all featured properties will be open. The Ssho and apartment units would suit the young talent pool working in the Cyberjaya and Putrajaya vicinity, while the superlink, semi-detached and bungalow houses are ideal for those looking for nice, high-end residences,” he said.

Emkay plans Cyberjaya affordable housing project
By Cheryl YVonne Achu Published: 2012/09/28

http://www.btimes.com.my/Current_News/BTIM...mkay27/Article/

PROPERTY developer Emkay Group expects to launch an affordable housing project in Cyberjaya by the second quarter of next year in an effort to enhance the middle-income group's accessibility to their own house.

"This is an ongoing effort by us in providing affordable housing to the people, in line with the government's desire to see more of the middle income group owning homes," said chairman Tan Sri Mustapha Kamal Abu Bakar.

He said although the project is still in the planning stage, the company expects it to include the development of about 3,000 units of medium cost houses with a selling price of below RM200,000 a unit.

Speaking to reporters after the launch of the Star Central @Cyberjaya project here yesterday, he said the affordable housing project will be part of the group's plan to transform Cyberjaya as Malaysia Silicon Valley in 2020.

Also present was Emkay chief executive Ahmad Khalif Mustapha Kamal.

The Star Central @Cyberjaya project, developed by its subsidiary, Joyful Star Sdn Bhd is a mixed-development project comprising 859,118 sq ft of office space, 814 units of shops and 1,900 residential units with a gross development value (GDV) RM1.8 million.

The construction is scheduled to start next month and is expected to be completed in five years. It will be developed in four phases, Mustapha Kamal said.

"So far, the project recorded a sales value of RM122 million, involving various types of development," he said.

Among the development in the Star Central @ Cyberjaya project are an eight-storey semi-detached office tower units with a GDV of RM420 million, two 25-storey residential studio and office (SOHO) towers (GDV of RM319.4 million), 10-storey shop office (GDV of RM80.8 million), six-storey hypermarket (GDV of RM277.7 million), 48-storey serviced apartments (GDV of RM453.9 million) and a 41-storey hotel (GDV of RM332.2 million).

The company will utilise the Industrialised Building System in order to reduce construction costs, Mustapha Kamal said, without revealing more details about the project.

"We do not want to be too dependent on foreign labour services to build affordable homes in Cyberjaya," he said.

Commenting on the proposed tax incentives for developers who use the IBS and green technology, he said if the government announces it in the Budget 2013 today, the company plans to build more affordable homes in Cyberjaya.

"It is possible (to build more affordable housing) based on Emkay track record so far," he said.

So far, Emkay has already built 22,920 units of affordable housing since 1990 with a GDV of RM1.37 billion. From the total, 11,118 units are located in Damansara Damai, Petaling Jaya and 11,794 units in Taman Bunga Raya, Bukit Beruntung.

Transport boost for Cyberjaya

http://www.btimes.com.my/Current_News/BTIM...l#ixzz280VkgMAu

BETTER LINKS: Cyberview wants light rail transit and MyRapid Transit to serve the intelligent city

NEW developments are set to take place in Cyberjaya, such as a railway network, which may include a brand new light rail transit (LRT) line and the MyRapid Transit (MRT) system.

Currently, the only rail network serving Cyberjaya is the Express Rail Link, connected via Putrajaya to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Sepang and the KL Sentral transport hub in Kuala Lumpur.

Cyberjaya, which was conceptualised and designed some 15 years ago as the nucleus of Malaysia's Multimedia Super Corridor, needs a better public transport system to serve its growing population. Today, the intelligent city is home to 600 companies, with 35 multinational and nine educational institutions, and about 53,000 people.

"The huge leap is due to the concerted efforts that we at Cyberview, together with our stakeholders, have initiated, which include the creation of an eco-system for companies to thrive in Cyberjaya.

"We've also launched various initiatives that make operating businesses in Cyberjaya easy and appealing," said Cyberview Sdn Bhd managing director Hafidz Hashim.

He said the company is in talks with the local authorities to extend the MRT and LRT lines to Cyberjaya.

"We are soliciting with them for a LRT and MRT line to serve the population growth. We are working closely to see which is the most cost- effective," he said in an interview.

Cyberview, a federal government company, is the land owner and the Cybercity Manager of 2,800ha Cyberjaya in Selangor, deemed to be Malaysia's version of the US' Silicon Valley.

As the information technology (IT) city of the country, its goal is to attract world-class multimedia and IT firms to set up businesses there.

So far, 27 per cent of Cyberjaya has been developed, while over 40 per cent of the landbank is under development and in planning stage.

Hafidz said as the city grows to greater heights, the demand for transport, residential and commercial development and other needs will increase significantly.

He also hopes there will be better connectivity to Cyberjaya by road.

Currently, Cyberjaya is linked via the Maju Expressway, Lebuhraya Damansara Puchong, the South Klang Valley Expressway and the New Klang Valley Expressway.

I think BU nor Puchong has many condos/apt last time (~5-10 years ago)?

I hope they don't control the commercial tenants too much or too strict, eg. stores selling non-halal food should not be restricted. There are just too few of them now.

On the other hand, there are too many mamak stores around which caused stiff competition.
