Little to cheer, a lot to worry
By Ng Jia Xiang
The Sabah media hailed it a success. In three days, a recent exhibition in Kota Kinabalu sold 500m ringgit ($147m) worth of buildings. But at closer look, the sales offered little cheer. More than three-quarters of the 2.2-billion-ringgit properties were unsold. Of those sold, 50m ringgit was for buildings in Kuala Lumpur. And this should worry the real estate industry because faulty construction is holding back buyers.
