Competitive Advantages of NCIPCompetitive Advantages of NCIP

Foreign investors and industrialists, especially those from Singapore, will be interested to invest in the cheap freehold medium industrial properties of NCIP in view of its proximity to Singapore which is merely 10 minutes drive from Tuas Singapore through the 2nd Link. Also, compared to light industrial land, medium industrial land at NCIP can accommodate a broader range of manufacturing industries.

Top management of Singaporean industrialists who set up factories at NCIP will also have easier and more efficient control over their

manufacturing operations.

Sufficient and strategically located landbank (Cont.) Located in close proximity to Singapore, Johor Bahru, Pasir

Gudang and Senai Airport, the land banks currently under development are within the boundary of Iskandar Malaysia which will benefit from the Government’s proposed development expenditure of RM12.2 billion under the 9th Malaysia Plan.

Due to the close proximity of NCIP to Tuas in Singapore and improvement in bilateral relationship between the two countries, it is anticipated that there will be significant relocation of Singapore industrialists to NCIP to take advantage of the lower land cost , lower operating cost, utilities charges and capital expenditure. Such close proximity to Singapore will also facilitate the management of the operation by the Singaporean industrialists after the relocation.

Sufficient and strategically located landbank (Cont.) The recent resolution of KTM railway land issue followed by

reduction in Second Link charges by 30%, additional routes and liberalized cross border public transport and the participation of Singapore in the development of an iconic wellness township project in Iskandar, will spur the local economy and improve connectivity between the two countries.

With the growing interest among Singapore companies to invest in Iskandar Malaysia, we believe more new investments by multinational companies operating in Singapore will follow soon.

FY2010 was a relatively challenging period with uncertainty in the global economic environment and credit crunch problems.

For the FY2011, the property market is making a strong comeback with renewed buying interest due to lower interest rates and better economic outlook.

The Group expects the industrial development and construction operations to be the main profit contributors for the Group in

FY2011.

The business outlook for Crescendo Group in the medium to long term is expected to be good for the following reasons:

Good rental market- The rental market for industrial properties is expected to be good as it can

cater for industrialists who are currently not ready to enter into purchase commitments.

- Property investors will also be keen to buy our tenanted industrial properties because they can get a reasonable return for their investment.

Malaysian property remains one of the cheapest in the region

- The availability of contiguous and sizeable land in Malaysia gives Malaysia a competitive cost advantage in terms of land prices.- Attracting international property developers, operators and investors to invest in the Malaysian property sector will lead to increase in property values, especially land with international market potential.- The Malaysian real estate remains attractive in terms of price stability, value and potential appreciation.

Business Outlook Business Outlook (Cont.)(Cont.)

Prime Location- Out of our total landbank of 3,061 acres, 1,741 acres of our converted landbank is

located within the prime Iskandar Malaysia area.

Improvement in residential property market - We expect the current oversupply situation to improve in view of the better

employment prospects for Johor Bahru residents due to the recent opening of the Integrated Resorts project in Singapore, better economic growth and active

developments within Iskandar Malaysia. These developments will create significant employment opportunities for the JB residents and inmigration workers from other states. This large population of young employed will be ready to purchase their residential homes in the Iskandar Malaysia area where our projects are located.

The Government is currently further liberalising various sectors of the economy with new measures to boost it in the face of the global recession. All property transactions including those between foreigners and non-bumiputeras will no longer require the Foreign Investment Committee’s approval.

For the residential operations, the Group will concentrate on selling the existing stocks as the demand for this sector is

improving.

The Group’s focus now is on the development of commercial and industrial properties. The demand for the commercial

and industrial properties is good and the Group will continue to invest in this sector but in smaller phases so as to be

conservative.

There will be more emphasis on residential and commercial sector in the medium term when we start to develop Bandar Cemerlang and CLSB Land.
