  • Yeap Chor Ee was a businessman and philanthropist. He was born in the village of Nan'an, Fujian, China, in 1867. Armed only with indefatigable energy and strong business acumen, he came to Penang at a mere age of 17 in the 1890s[1] and grew to become Penang's richest man of his time and one of the State's greatest philanthropists. Yeap died in 1952 at the age of 85. By then, he was known as The Grand Old Man of Penang, well loved for his old world courtesy, humility, generosity and integrity. He had arrived in Penang, Malaysia, from China, virtually penniless, but left a vast empire after his death. As a result of hard work he rose to become one of the richest men in Penang. He married a local girl, Lee Cheng Kin, by whom he had two sons, Datuk Yeap Hock Hoe and Yeap Hock Hin. They lived in a mansion called ‘Homestead’[2] at No 54 Northam Road which was their family house. He founded the Ban Hin Lee Bank[3] and many other companies. Therefore, his life epitomises the true rags to riches story. Over a course of thirty years, he built an empire with real banking, real estate and commodities trading activities. Yeap Chor Ee remained the only individual who single-handedly funded the establishment of a bank in that era, His record still holds-to-date. With the fortune he made, he turned to philanthropy with particular interest in education. His elegant mansion, Homestead, was donated to the Wawasan Education Foundation in 2006.

    - The Malayan Emergency (Malay: Darurat Malaya) was a guerrilla war fought in pre- and post-independence Federation of Malaya, from 1948 until 1960. The belligerents were the Commonwealth armed forces against the Malayan National Liberation Army (MNLA), the military arm of the Malayan Communist Party (MCP). The "Malayan Emergency" was originally the colonial government's term for the conflict. The MNLA called it the Anti-British National Liberation War.[8] The rubber plantations and tin-mining industries had pushed for the use of the term "emergency" since their losses would not have been covered by Lloyd's insurers if it had been termed a "war". Despite the drawdown in violence in 1960, communist leader Chin Peng renewed the insurgency against the Malaysian government in 1967; this second phase of the insurgency lasted until 1989. He fled to exile in Thailand, where he lived until his death on 16 September 2013.

His paper published a lot of anti-British editorial and he was arrested at his family’s provision shop in Selama, near the northern Malaysian city of Taiping, and taken to a detention camp in Taiping, in Perak State. Shen and around 31,000 other Malayans were given a choice: stay in jail or be deported to their ancestral “homes” in China via Hong Kong so that they would not be able to stir up trouble in Malaya. He opted for freedom and a new life in Meixian, in Guangdong. “He promised my grandmother and their children he would settle down and send for them. Two years later, a letter came from China saying he had joined the local Chinese Communist Party, been arrested by the Kuomintang and executed,” Sim says.An image of David Alexander Adamson’s grave in Perak is a reminder of the other side of a protracted war that killed thousands, including British plantation owners such as 25-year-old Adamson, who was murdered in his home by the guerillas.

    • http://www.scmp.com/news/asia/southeast-asia/article/1934839/china-malaysia-tout-new-port-alliance-reduce-customs As part of this Silk Road reboot, the two countries are forming a “port alliance” to fast-track trade by reducing customs bottlenecks at both ends, according to China’s top envoy to Malaysia, Huang Huikang. Malacca was an important port during the ancient Silk Road, playing host to Chinese navigator Zheng He in the 15th century, and is set to rise again as Beijing invests US$10 billion to develop a deep sea port there, according to Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai. The port is expected to be the biggest in the region when it is completed in 2025 under the Malacca Gateway project which includes commercial and residential property developments. As a sign of Malacca’s importance, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang squeezed several hours out of his tight schedule during last November’s Asean Summit in Kuala Lumpur to visit the city. “China regards the Strait of Malacca as highly sensitive and critical as Chinese shipping interest is vulnerable to disruption by unfriendly parties in times of conflict. Thus, securing a foothold in the Strait of Malacca will be a major strategic achievement for China,” says Tang Siew Mun, senior fellow at the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies Yusof Ishak Institute. Under the port alliance, 10 Chinese ports – Dalian, Shanghai, Ningbo, Qinzhou, Guangzhou, Fuzhou, Xiamen, Shezhen, Hainan and Taicang will collaborate with six Malaysian ports – Port Klang, Malacca, Penang, Johor, Kuantan and Bintulu.

    • https://www.reuters.com/article/us-malaysia-politics-china-idUSKCN1UA1DU Malaysia seized more than 1 billion ringgit ($243.5 million) from a bank account of state-owned China Petroleum Pipeline Engineering (CPP) over incomplete pipeline projects, Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad said on Monday. The seizure comes nearly a year after Malaysia suspended two pipeline projects, valued at $2.3 billion, on which CPP was the lead contractor. CPP is a unit of state energy giant China National Petroleum Corp. “I understand that money for 80% of the pipeline was paid, but the work completed was only 13%,” Mahathir told reporters. “So the government is entitled to get back the money, since the project was canceled.” His comments followed a report on Saturday from Singapore-based Straits Times, which said that Malaysia had seized the funds from CPP’s account at HSBC Malaysia. HSBC declined to comment, citing client confidentiality. In an email sent to Reuters late on Monday, CPP said it understood Malaysia’s Anti-Corruption Council ordered the fund transfer and that it was made without the company’s knowledge.

          森林城市在香港亦有發售，本報昨日致電展銷處詢問，職員仍指海外買家，包括香港買家可繼續購買，職員稱：「如果要參觀現場，需要預約。」該盤呎價約為2,000港元，一個700呎單位約售150萬元。碧桂園發言人表示，正向馬來西亞政府瞭解情況。碧桂園股價昨仍升2.5%，收報12.14元。

The mainland’s retail industry, particularly department stores, is very challenging, he told China Daily, as consumers now spend less time shopping because they have other ways to entertain themselves and relax, while e-commerce shopping is gaining the upper hand. For the year ended Dec 31, 2015, Parkson recorded a loss attributable to owners of the company of 186.2 million yuan ($28.5 million), compared with a net profit of 235 million yuan a year ago. The group’s revenue last year fell 6.4 percent to 4.2 billion yuan, while same-store sales were down 8 percent during the year. Parkson’s share price dropped 2.08 percent to close at HK$0.94 apiece on Tuesday, while the Hang Seng Index decreased 0.95 percent. Chong said Parkson has decided to go through a “transformation” to adapt itself to the new environment. The company has teamed up with South Korea’s E-Land Group in a joint venture, in which Parkson holds a 50-percent stake. The venture had transformed one of Parkson’s department stores in Shanghai into a South Korean city lifestyle mall — Parkson Newcore Citymall — late last year. The mall has been doing very well since its opening, as the products sold in the store are cheaper, Chong said, adding that sales have more than doubled so far.

The scale and ambition of the project has caused some alarm. Malaysia’s former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad warned that the housing, commercial and industrial development, which will eventually occupy 20 square kilometres of reclaimed land, amounted to a “foreign enclave”. The Sultan of Johor, in whose state the project lies and an investor in Forest City, accused the former prime minister of “playing the politics of fear and race”. http://paper.takungpao.com/resfile/PDF/20170314/PDF/b5_screen.pdf 2nd phase
