Ah Jib Ge In Sibu - Part 3

Ah Jib Ge's charisma is simply irresistible! When he landed on Sibu's newly extended airport yesterday, crowds thronged to meet the PM. According to the latest survey, Ah Jib Ge's popularity has gone up to a new high. Based on this, Ah Jib Ge deemed it the right time now to go back to the rakyat to seek a bigger mandate to run the country. The 13th GE is just like an almost fully baked cake in the oven-you easily get the smell of it a quarter of a mile away. Ah Jib Ge seems to be well prepared!

Ah Jib Ge

Ah Jib Ge flew in with something big for Sibuians. Last night (April 26) at a community dinner at Kingwood Hotel, Ah Jib Ge announced that a technology university would be set up in Sibu. This was certainly not a joke, as according to Ah Jib Ge, the work on the proposed university would start as early as in June this year. This was a pre-election big wow for Sibu. Having a full-fledged university in Sibu has been the dream of all Sibuians, and Ah Jib Ge, by a stroke of his pen, made it a realisation. Last night the whole of Sibu was filled with election drumming! A big thumb up to Ah Jib Ge! Picture: See Hua Daily News

Ah Jib Ge In Sibu - Part 1

Our PM Najib (now popularly known as Ah Jib Ge)will be in Sibu for a two-day visit from 27th-28th April. Ah Jib Ge certainly comes here not just to drink kopi-o with Sibuians at Central Market for nothing. Our PM is now on pre-election warming-up exercise natiowide, druming up support for BN in the upcoming 13th GE. Ah Jib Ge shied away from Sibu twice after BN's defeat in the by-election in May 2010. During one rally at Rejang Park, Sibu in the by-election campaign, Ah Jib Ge caused a stir by quoting "You help me, I help you". Karpah Singh of DAP challenged back, saying he might bring it to court for interpretation. Although it was two years already, Sibuians still quote that "notable quote". Let us see what Ah Jib Ge has got to say after two years! Picture: www.sibuericluk.blogspot.com

DTZ To Property Investors: Tough Year For Malaysian Property Market

Cautious sentiments due to an anticipated economic slowdown have resulted in a generally subdued real estate market which is expected to face a tough year ahead, according to DTZ Research. It stated that Malaysia's investment activities experienced a slow start this year, with volumes in the first quarter falling to RM427.5 million. "However, the decline does not reflect waning investors' interest for good assets as dismal market conditions in Europe diverted attention to Malaysia and the region, leading to an increase in enquiries," said the property services company. "New real estate investment trust (REIT) listings in the pipeline are also expected to give investment activity a boost in the later part of the year." The group noted that the largest transaction recorded in the first quarter was the IGB Bhd's purchase of a 50 percent share in the holding company of Renaissance Hotel. Meanwhile, the tougher regulations on personal loans have shifted the focus of local property developers on smaller and more affordable units, said Eddy Wong, Executive Director and Head of Residential Marketing at DTZ. "The imposition of tighter lending guidelines requiring housing loans to be approved based on the net household income instead of gross income should, to some extent, cool an overheated market that has run up substantially in terms of pricing in the last two years, as well as focus developments toward the more affordable housing segment."
