Chin Hin expands Klang Valley landbank with RM52m Segambut land acquisition
This acquisition made through the group's wholly owned subsidiary Chin Hin Property (Segambut) Sdn Bhd transitions from a previous joint development agreement signed in April 2024 which provided CHGP full ownership and development rights.
Originally planned as a collaborative development between CHGP and Kar Sin, the land will now be independently developed by CHGP into a residential or mixed development project.
The acquisition further supports CHGP's on-going strategy of expanding its property portfolio by securing strategically located land within high-potential areas of Kuala Lumpur.
The Segambut land is well-connected by major highways, including the Duta-Ulu Klang Expressway (DUKE) and Jalan Ipoh, as well as public transportation such as KTM Komuter and MRT stations.
The area is experiencing rapid urban growth and infrastructure improvements, making it highly attractive for residential and mixed-use developments.
As such, CHGP plans to develop a high-rise development on the newly acquired land, subject to obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals.
The project aims to meet the growing demand from young professionals, families and local businesses seeking integrated developments offering convenient living and lifestyle amenities.
'Transitioning from our previous joint development arrangement to full ownership of this prime land allows CHGP greater flexibility and control over the project's execution and marketing,' commented CHGP's group CEO (property development division) Chang Tze Yoong.
'Given the area's strong connectivity and market dynamics, we are confident this project will substantially contribute to our earnings growth.'
Added Chang: 'The land's freehold tenure and favourable zoning conditions are poised to provide CHGP with significant flexibility to deliver an innovative, lifestyle-centric mixed-use development – a concept that has proven successful in key urban growth corridors.
'We are confident this project will substantially contribute to our earnings growth.'
Aligned with CHGP's sustainable growth goals, this acquisition is expected to positively impact the group's long-term earnings while supporting its commitment to ESG (environment, social and governance) practices by creating environmentally-friendly and sustainable communities.
At the close of today's market trading, CHGP was unchanged at RM1.07 with no share traded, thus valuing the company at RM1.41 mil. – July 16, 2025

Ireka shares surge 66pct, extending meteoric two-day rally
KUALA LUMPUR: Ireka Corp Bhd saw its share price soar by as much as 66 per cent during morning trade today, continuing its meteoric rally following a 63.89 per cent gain the previous day. The stock climbed 66 per cent to 30 sen during the morning session from its previous close of 18 sen. Yesterday, Bursa Malaysia issued an unusual market activity (UMA) query to the company in response to the sharp rise in both price and trading volume of Ireka shares on July 30, 2025. The market regulator has requested the company to disclose any material developments, rumours, or other factors that may explain the unusual trading activity. As of press time, Ireka has not responded to the query. Bursa said the company's response will be made available on its official website under the company announcements section once received. The surge in share price comes amid ongoing corporate developments involving a major infrastructure contract. On July 28, Ireka received a notice of mutual termination concerning its RM1.07 billion subcontract with Gammerlite Sdn Bhd for the Pan Borneo Highway project, following upstream funding constraints and the exit of the main contractor. The termination proposal was triggered by the lapse of a project operation agreement between main contractor MTD Construction Sdn Bhd and Sabah-based Gammerlite, which was terminated on June 30 due to Gammerlite's failure to secure the necessary funding. On July 8, Ireka received a mutual termination notice from Gammerlite. Ireka, however, objected to the termination and is currently seeking legal advice to evaluate avenues for cost recovery and fair compensation. "The company is pursuing an equitable settlement for work performed and costs incurred and anticipates legal and administrative expenses in connection with the dispute resolution process," Ireka said in a statement. The company officially entered Practice Note 17 (PN17) status on March 1, 2022, due to its shareholders' equity falling below 50 per cent of its share capital.

Malaysia to table Atomic Bill amendments
PETALING JAYA: Malaysia is stepping up its push into nuclear energy, as the Science, Technology and Innovation Ministry (Mosti) prepares to propose key amendments to the Atomic Energy Bill – a move aimed at reinforcing the nation's nuclear regulatory framework. Minister Chang Lih Kang said the move reflects Malaysia's commitment to exploring nuclear as a future energy source, alongside early progress in thorium (a radioactive metallic element) extraction. 'A pre-feasibility study on nuclear energy has been completed. Initial findings show strong potential for Malaysia to pursue this path,' he said in response to Kuala Terengganu MP Datuk Haji Ahmad Amzad Mohamed @ Hashim (PN). Following the study, six technical task forces were proposed – three of which are led by Mosti. They focus on technology and industrial development, nuclear skills and expertise and the legal-regulatory structure. Chang also previously confirmed that the Atomic Energy Licensing Act 1984 will be amended to support the next phase of development. Malaysia currently has 323 research officers at the Malaysian Nuclear Agency and 36 science officers at the Atomic Energy Department. Of these, 61 hold qualifications in nuclear science or engineering. 'This reflects our commitment to developing local talent to support safe and responsible use of nuclear technology.' Chang said international cooperation is also a core strategy. He said Malaysia is working closely with global agencies on technical training, joint research, technology transfer and capacity building nuclear science. 'On July 10, we signed a strategic civil nuclear agreement with the United States. This is a major catalyst for long-term collaboration on Malaysia's civil nuclear ambitions.' Malaysia is also pursuing similar partnerships with China and Russia to build capacity in nuclear power generation. 'The partnerships will give us access to cutting-edge expertise, proven technologies and best practices, which are critical for building our infrastructure and local industry.' Chang added that Malaysia collaborates with the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organisation to detect nuclear weapons tests and use scientific data for natural disaster monitoring, including earthquakes and tsunamis. Malaysia also maintains strong ties with the International Atomic Energy Agency through technical cooperation, regional agreements and research collaborations under the Asian Nuclear Cooperation Forum. Beyond power generation, Chang said nuclear technology is already being used to tackle environmental and climate challenges.

Malaysia powers up nuclear push
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is moving closer to adopting nuclear energy as part of its long-term energy transition strategy. Science, Technology and Innovation (Mosti) Minister Chang Lih Kang (pic) said a pre-feasibility study on nuclear power has been completed. He said the initial findings showed that nuclear energy had strong potential to serve as a stable, clean and reliable power source for the country. 'In line with this, six technical task forces have been proposed to support nuclear energy readiness. 'Three of these are under Mosti, focusing on technology and industry development, development of nuclear competencies and a legal and regulatory framework,' Chang told the Dewan Rakyat yesterday. The remaining three teams will fall under the purview of the Energy Transition and Water Transformation Ministry, he said. Chang said the country now has 323 nuclear researchers under the Malaysian Nuclear Agency and 36 science officers under the Atomic Energy Department, holding qualifications in nuclear science and engineering. He said Malaysia was working to amend its Atomic Energy Act to enable the ratification of key international treaties and conventions under the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). 'Once approved by the Cabinet, we aim to table the amended Act in this Parliament session. 'This will demonstrate Malaysia's seriousness in exploring nuclear energy as one of our power generation options,' he said. Chang also confirmed that Malaysia signed a strategic civil nuclear cooperation agreement with the United States on July 10, complementing its existing collaborations with China and Russia. 'The agreement will act as a catalyst for long-term cooperation in infrastructure development, joint research, technical training and local industry strengthening,' he added. He said Malaysia was also working closely with the IAEA through technical cooperation programmes, regional partnerships, the Asian Nuclear Cooperation Forum and coordinated research projects. Beyond power generation, he said, nuclear technology is also being used in climate and environmental research.
