Research and Development In Malaysia | Factory For Rent | Something That You Could Learn For Free

A lot of times for you to accomplish certain task is just by asking if you want to get it done as it's beyond your capability. You just have to ask as Steve Jobs did when he needed parts to build his frequency counter from Bill Hewlett of HP. He was then 12 year-old and studying in high school.

This is the story of how VULCAN INTERNATIONAL Real Estate Investors Club is helping out R & D of a Multinational Company due to our comprehensive establishment in the sector of factory and warehouse. 

We've been approached by a Multinational Company (MNC) in Free Industrial Zone (FIZ), Bayan Lepas Penang to help source for factory/warehouse that need to meet their requirement: 

(1) Ridge height : 15m, (2) Floor space dimension: 40m x 40m.

Based on above, the floor space required is 1600m sq(approx. 17,222 sq ft). The indicative rental based on Prai industrial for warehouse is RM1.30 psf(per sq ft) and it'll cost about RM22,388.60 per month.

Reason for sourcing the factory/warehouse is to perform actual testing of their prototype product instead of simulation as earlier learning curve found that simulation is not accurate. That eventually caused product recall. As you're aware any product recall is going to be very expensive in terms of labour and product replacement. This is currently happened to automobile industry for airbags.

Due to its nature of rental for a month to perform actual testing, all our business partners won't be able to cater for it as they're looking for long terms warehousing rental instead of a month or two.

We've gave them free information of whereabout to source the building that met their requirements and the best part is that it's free of charge due to the establishment belongs to public funding. That is a cost saving of RM22,388.60 per month to them.

How can we help you?

The building that met the Multinational Company's requirement:

The availability of new warehouse/factory for sales/rental in Jalan Chain Ferry, Butterworth to cater for Industrial Estates in Butterworth mainly Kawasan Perindustrian Mak Mandin, Kawasan Perindustrian Teras Jaya and Taman Perusahaan Sungai Lokan shows that there're demand for it. 

Butterworth is the main town for Seberang Perai Utara (SPU) and it complements Georgetown in Penang Island as transportation hub where one can access to railway network, seaport, bus terminal, North Butterworth Container Terminal (NBCT). These infrastructures are essential to The Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers' (FMM) Penang branch whose membership comprises of manufacturers (MNCs) and companies registered in Malaysia.

The following is the best case-study where VULCAN INTERNATIONAL Real Estate Investors Club involved in early designing stage of the warehouse/factory on consultation-based rather than transactional-oriented.

Malaysia Property Bubble | Penang Property | Property Guru Forum |Ringgit Exchange Rate, RPGT Trend: Where're we heading from here?

A week ago, our local newspaper mentioned that our neighbour, Thailand has been in recession mode. The indicative way of measuring as yardstick is GDP(Gross Domestic Product). It was mentioned that the country has been twice consecutively performing below its GDP forecasted numbers.

On our home front, last week we saw the weakening of ringgit which is noted to be at its three-year-low against the greenback(US dollar). The ringgit lost as much as 0.4% to 3.272 per US dollar, it's weakest since June 2010 and predicts by analysts that ringgit could soften to 3.3 against greenback over the next six months. As at noon yesterday, ringgit had slid about 8.17% year-to-date against the greenback to 3.33 per dollar.

The Star newspaper article also mentioned that our students in UK and their parents are having to work harder to counter the weakening of ringgit as ringgit has also slid against the British pound, the euro and most major currencies. 

On the contrary it was mentioned that it's not all bad news though as inbound tour operators and exporters are laughing their way to bank. Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents(MATTA) vice-president (inbound) Tan Kok Liang said it would now be cheaper for foreigners to come to Malaysia with their increase spending power.

Federation of Malaysian Manufacturer(FMM) president Tan Sri Yong Poh Kon said Malaysian goods would be more competitively priced aboard. Exporters will benefit as they will earn a higher revenue for the same amount of goods sold previously.

Is Real Property Gains Tax (RPGT) in Malaysia in the rising trend? It seems to be happening. As we can see from the data on below, the RPGT rate has been increased progressively by government from 0% to 5%, 10% and 15%, in year 2010, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Will there be another incremental coming this Budget 2014 tabling? 

RPGT was one of the government's initiative that had a big and immediate impact on curbing housing speculation. 

In order to ensure the sustainable housing delivery system, the RPGT was reintroduced in 2010(see table below) to curb speculation and prevent the housing market from overheating.

However, reference to the House Price Index by National Property Information Centre(NAPIC) showed that in 2011 and 2012 the house price index recorded the highest increase for the last five years especially in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Pahang, Sabah, Perak and Terengganu.

Property flipper or short-term investor must be cautious on the rising RPGT. You may want to take (as per Real Property Gain Tax Act 1976) into your consideration, meaning 15% tax will be imposed on chargeable property gain for disposal within first two years as of year 2013. 

Will there be property bubble or rather property correction moving forward? While we're in this conundrum, developers seem to do stockpile on their land bank.
