Valuation of Construction Equipments in Borneo



This assignment took us into the interiors of Sarawak, traversing jungle treks and off roads. A really long, hard and tiring journeys to parts of Sarawak undergoing road works, repairs and slope strengthening. We were tasked to value the heavy machineries used in these road works.

Valuing the Underwater World Langkawi


Biological Filteration System

Ozone Filteration Systems

African Penguins


RockHopper Penguin

This is one of the very unique assignments that we have received thus far. As there is only one Underwater Aquarium in Malaysia, it was a real challenge valuing this asset. It was a great experience, learning and understanding how UWL works. A truly gratifying experience.

Valuing a Garment Plant in Suzhou, China

We were commissioned by a public listed company to value its Garment Plant in Suzhou, China. It's our first assignment overseas. The weather was cold at that time and we hardly break a sweat unlike our normal P&M assignments where we would normally sweat like pigs in closed and hot factory plants. After our inspection in Suzhou, we stayed a couple of nights in Shanghai. We visited the Shanghai Bund and several other tourist attractions and best of all, savoured the delicious local cuisines. A really fruitful trip.

On Board The Princess Yacht

This is one of the luxurious yachts in the Princess collection. The interior of the yacht is spacious with several rooms with attached baths. This yacht is like a floating hotel.

Valuation of A Hydro Power Plant near Gua Musang in Kelantan















This small scale hydro plant is perched on top of Gunung Kenerong in Gua Musang, Kelantan. The journey up the hill is treacherous and torturous to my backside. But upon reaching the peak, the view is magnificent and the air pure and refreshing. There is a little hut for resting and we had some coffee and snacks. It was peaceful and serene.

Having English Tea in Sandakan




This beautiful cafe within a cool and serene hilltop setting offers a wonderful dining experience (too bad I cannot recall its name)
