Petronas rents nearly 75% of klcc office space. Last month, Petronas renewed the lease to 2041/42. Thereafter, earlier this month, Petronas sold a big block of their Klccs shares (reportedly to pay government dividends) to ASB. I dont think the timing of lease renewal was a coincidence. Likely something insisted upon by ASB.
Not that I'm aware of. Maybe because we have fewer Reits n Mreits tend to have low leverage but now with the pendemic maybe this will change.
KLCCS, being the strongest, still has less than 20% gearing.

Tq bros,...
I figured since MREITs do not go out into the world to buy assets, this is the reason for their low gearing. Could be that the pandemic could be changing this too,... that's why SC has incaresd the leverage limit to 60%,... as bro felix highlighted,...
This is useful info,... MAS in SG increased from 45% to 50% for,.. like 2 years ? And SC increased from 50% to 60%. Hmm,... still higher than MAS'.
