Held from Oct 1 to Dec 31 2024, the campaign generated an impressive RM537mil in total bookings, mainly contributed by projects located at areas such as Selangor (Cybersouth, Seri Kembangan, Puchong) and Johor (Molek) where demand were primarily driven by first-time home buyers.

A total of 19 projects across Malaysia including key developments such as KITA @ Cybersouth, D'Island Residence, Prestige Residence, Centrum Iris, Bayu Hills and more, participated in the campaign, further reflecting LBS's nationwide presence and strong market engagement.
As part of the campaign, LBS celebrated the grand prize winners, who walked away with hotel vouchers worth up to RM250,000 in total.

The campaign's grand finale took place during the lively Raya KITA Fest, held at the LBS Discovery Gallery KITA @ Cybersouth.
The highlight of the event was the official prize presentation ceremony, where LBS executive director Datuk Cynthia Lim handed over mock cheques to the lucky winners.
'This campaign is our way of expressing heartfelt appreciation to our customers while spreading joy and excitement throughout the LBS community.
'As a developer deeply rooted in community values, we take great pride in bringing festive cheer to our customers and the broader LBS family.
'This initiative also aligns with our three-year '8 x 8 Strategy', particularly our focus on delivering an exceptional customer experience – ensuring that every interaction is personalised, seamless and meaningful,' said Lim.
In support of the Malaysian government's efforts to promote domestic tourism, LBS contributes by offering hotel stays at premier destinations.
'We hope these rewards inspire homeowners to explore the richness of Malaysia's heritage while serving as a token of our appreciation for their trust and support,' she added.
The event attracted over 200 guests, including LBS Perks and Plusses partners, campaign winners, potential buyers and the local community.
Guests celebrated Hari Raya in a festive atmosphere filled with joy, unity and music — highlighted by a free concert featuring local artists who were brought in by LBS, such as Naim Daniel, Iman Troye and Zarul Umbrella.

Federal Govt allocates RM8.79b to roll out 86 projects under 12MP in Sabah: Fadillah

Published on: Sunday, July 13, 2025 Published on: Sun, Jul 13, 2025 By: Bernama Text Size: Fadillah speaks at the event. - fotoBERNAMA KOTA KINABALU: The Federal Government, through the Ministry of Energy Transition and Water Transformation (Petra), has allocated RM8.79 billion until June 2025 to implement 86 development projects in Sabah. Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof, who is also the Minister of Energy Transition and Water Transformation, stated that the total allocation will be disbursed under the Fifth Rolling Plan (RP5) of the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP). 'Sabah has received a fairly large allocation from the federal government … it is our commitment to resolve two key issues in Sabah: water and energy. 'Because without energy and water, there can be no economic growth in Sabah,' he said when speaking at the Petra Engagement Session with Sabah Media in 2025 here tonight. He said the Madani government is always striving to ensure that Sabah continues to prosper together as a big Malaysian family. Therefore, Sabah's progress is not only the responsibility of this state, but of the entire nation. 'With strong federal-state relations, we can build a more prosperous, just as well as sustainable state and country, with the support of a free and trustworthy media and a united people,' he said. Meanwhile, Fadillah also said the engagement session was intended as a platform for the media to better understand the role of Petra and agencies under its auspices. 'We organised this session to foster closer ties and strengthen the relationship between the media and Petra's top management," he added. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

Unity government open to talks on expanded SST implementation

BANTING: The unity government remains open to discussions if there are parties who believe certain goods should be exempted from the expanded Sales and Services Tax (SST). Umno deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan said that although the tax expansion is being implemented, it does not mean the government has shut its doors on negotiations or discussions over the matter. "Based on what the unity government has done so far, it seems there is room for negotiation. "If there is a need, especially for basic daily necessities, it can be brought to the government's attention. "The door for negotiations is not completely closed, but there must be a clear basis to justify the exemption of certain items from tax," he said when asked whether the government was still open to discussions following the expanded SST implementation starting this month. Earlier, Mohamad, who is also the Foreign Minister, launched the Kuala Langat Umno division delegates' meeting that was attended by 460 delegates from 90 branches at Dewan Sri Jugra here today. Yesterday, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had said the SST should be implemented with a more flexible approach, particularly concerning basic food items. Zahid also said he had also raised the matter with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, suggesting that apples, oranges, and dates be exempted from the tax, with the cabinet agreeing that SST would not apply to those three food items.

Sabah's oil and gas gains built on reforms, not rhetoric — Dr Roland

Dr Roland KOTA KINABALU (July 13): The Sabah government's progress in the oil and gas sector is grounded in facts and meaningful reforms, not political rhetoric, said Datuk Dr Roland Chia, Political Secretary to the Chief Minister. Responding to recent remarks by former Sabah Oil and Gas Development Corporation (SOGDC) CEO Abdul Kadir Abdullah Damsal, Dr Roland said the statement distorted reality and overlooked a prolonged period of stagnation under the latter's leadership. 'The recent statement by former SOGDC CEO misrepresents the facts and conveniently glosses over a time of inertia during his own tenure,' said Dr Roland in a statement on Sunday. 'Let's be clear: Sabah International Petroleum (SIP) was in financial distress before it was restructured by the current government. The GRS administration's intervention wasn't just symbolic — it was critical for safeguarding Sabah's financial position and reclaiming control over key energy assets,' he said. Dr Roland noted that SMJ Energy (SMJE) was established to address past structural failures, consolidate state energy interests, enter direct upstream participation, and deliver tangible benefits to the people. 'Under the present administration, the Sipitang Oil & Gas Industrial Park (SOGIP) has gained investor confidence, with Esteel Enterprise Sdn Bhd's RM31 billion investment being a standout example,' he said. He added that the results following the signing of the Commercial Collaboration Agreement (CCA) speak volumes. 'SMJE now holds equity in major oil and gas blocks. Sabah Energy Corporation (SEC) has secured onshore gas distribution rights — a historic milestone. In 2024 alone, RM2 billion in contracts were awarded to Sabah-based companies, many of which are now expanding operations beyond the state,' he said. 'These are not just numbers — they represent real jobs and real economic growth for Sabahans,' Dr Roland stressed. Acknowledging Sabah's longstanding contribution to Malaysia's oil and gas industry, he said the current administration has brought genuine institutional empowerment to the state. 'SMJE and SEC are no longer passive entities. They are now key players, with Sabahans taking the lead — not by chance, but through strategic state action,' he said. Addressing claims surrounding State Finance Minister Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun's remarks in the State Assembly, Dr Roland clarified that they were made in direct response to a question by Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal regarding SMJE's non-participation in an East Coast exploratory bid. 'To twist that context into a personal attack is not only misleading but a deliberate attempt to politicise a factual explanation,' he said. He urged all parties to stay focused on the real, measurable progress made under the GRS government rather than engage in distortions that undermine public trust.
