28 February 2020 - The Peak is a 55-storey mixed hotel development project comprising one tower of hotel and offices, two towers of residential units, a retail mall and a multi-story car park (the "Project"), which is being developed by Oxley Gem (Cambodia) Co., Ltd. ("Oxley Gem"), a subsidiary of Oxley Holdings Limited. Sino Great Wall International Engineering Co., Ltd. ("SGW") was engaged as the main contractor for the Project.Unfortunately, due to financial difficulties faced by the parent company of SGW and their continued mismanagement of the Project, the Project was wrought with significant delays and difficulties. Oxley Gem, as the developer of the Project, had repeatedly sought to assist SGW to meet the contractually stipulated timelines and even granted goodwill extensions to SGW. However, there were no significant improvements in the performance of SGW and it became apparent that it was not possible for SGW to complete the Project within any reasonable timeframe in the foreseeable future. In order to mitigate any further delays in the Project, Oxley Gem decided to terminate the contract with SGW in October 2019.Oxley Gem has since vetted and appointed another main contractor, China Railway Urban Construction Group Co., Ltd. ("CRUCG"), which is a state-owned entity in China with a strong financial position.Upon termination, SGW was required to vacate the site in order for CRUCG to complete the Project. In defiance of its contractual obligations, SGW refused to vacate the Project site and wrongfully occupied the site. This has caused further delays in the Project as CRUCG was not able to enter the site to commence work on the Project.Oxley Gem proceeded to commence legal proceedings to seek an injunction from the Cambodian court to evict SGW from the Project site and to enable Oxley Gem to exercise its lawful rights as developer and owner of the Project. In the course of the injunction proceedings, SGW was given due opportunity to respond and present their case. However, SGW chose not to do so and the Cambodian courts found merit in Oxley Gem's case. Oxley Gem successfully obtained an injunction order to evict SGW, their subcontractors and their workers from the Project site on 14 February 2020.On 25 February 2020, the Cambodian court appointed bailiff commenced the execution of the injunction order at the Project site in a legal and proper manner with the support of competent governmental authorities. SGW was highly uncooperative with the court bailiff and resisted compliance of the injunction order, eventually causing an altercation with the authority. Oxley Gem is advised by its lawyers that such obstruction by SGW to the enforcement of a court order may constitute a criminal offence under Cambodian law.The court bailiff eventually successfully escorted all SGW personnel from the Project site. As of today, Oxley Gem has regained full control of the Project site and CRUCG will be commencing work on the Project as soon as possible.Oxley Gem is currently instructing its lawyers to seek compensation from SGW for all damages suffered due to the various breaches of contract and the misconduct of SGW.Realestate.com.kh is proud to bring back Cambodia’s biggest Property & Lifestyle Market Expo which will be held on 7th and 8th August at Koh Pich Exhibition Center.Booth sales and sponsorships for Home & Lifestyle Expo 2020 are open. For more information, please contact:  Nin Kang (Khmer/Chinese)+855 78 637 323+855 93 552 305nin.kang@realestate.com.khTyler Stuart (English)+855 12 599 699+855 81 599 669tyler.stuart@realestate.com.kh

(Over 60 million people in China are still on lockdown as the People’s Republic of China and the World Health Organization struggle to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus)Be alert, don’t panic. There’s no need to cancel that business trip (unless it’s in heavily affected areas/countries) or skip that conference you’ve been waiting to go to. The novel coronavirus (Covid-19), while a present danger, can be easily avoided by following basic hygiene practices you’ve always known!But first, let’s have a bit of additional context.W.H.O. declares nCoV as a global health emergencyYes, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the novel coronavirus outbreak as a global health emergency or more technically known as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). Let’s take a closer look at what this means.An outbreak’s classification as a PHEIC is not meant to be (and should not be) a cause for panic. This declaration is a signal that global health organizations and networks are the necessary steps, and using the necessary resources, to stop the outbreak from getting worse. This generally includes opening up channels of communications between clinical and research sites, unlocking financial and logistical support to these networks tackling the novel coronavirus outbreak, and holding states to account when it comes to reporting news and current cases.According to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the declaration of a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, or PHEIC, is meant to help support less industrialized countries and to try to prevent the virus from spreading in areas that are less equipped to detect and handle infections.(January 30, 2020. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). Image by GETTY.)Practical tips to avoid getting infectedWhile medical organizations, networks, and professionals are working 24/7 to keep the spread at bay, at the end of the day, your health is your responsibility. Here a few practical tips to avoid getting infected.Wash your hands FREQUENTLY The novel coronavirus spreads much like the common flu i.e. airborne particles, surface particles, and close contact to infected individuals. It’s also a fact often taken for granted that our hands are what we use to interact with our surroundings including shaking hands with people.Medical professionals’ advice is to wash your hands frequently for at least 20 seconds with hand soap and water. In their absence, you may use alcohol-based hand sanitizers to clean your hands. But hand soap and water are the preferred sanitizing options.Avoid touching your faceThe primary way viruses get infect our bodies is through our mucous membranes - these are our eyes, nose, and mouth. So, if you have this mannerism (of touching your face) then it’s high time you watch yourself. The less you touch your face before washing them for at least 20 seconds, the better!Clean common/shared areasObjects, especially shared ones, tend to be prevalent hosts of the novel coronavirus which can live on surfaces for quite some time. Now, this is not meant to discourage you from sharing, but simply a precaution to constantly wipe down shared objects and sanitize common areas as much as possible.Observe the 6-feet ruleThe novel coronavirus has been observed to follow the same transmission methods as the common influenza virus. This includes a 6-feet (1.8 metres) airborne transmission range. Be sure you observe this distance if you’re going to be in contact with someone showing symptoms (such as fever, coughing, and shortness of breath).Avoid traveling to heavily infected areasMultiple countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia have issued a travel advisory to their citizens to cancel all non-essential travel to China. While Cambodia has not issued any restrictions to its citizens, it would be wise to observe personal precautions when traveling to heavily hit areas.(Washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds significantly reduces the chance of getting infected.)Be alert, don’t panicDon’t let viral posts from popular pages or “influencers” to claim to know the best way to prevent yourself from being infected without a credible source; a high amount of likes, shares, views, and retweets do not make a post accurate. Stick to advisories from health organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Ministry of Health for accurate information on the outbreak.Panicking does not help and will only lead to a rash decision that may domino into something detrimental to you or your family’s overall well-being. Instead, be alert by constantly sanitizing and avoiding contact with sick individuals.Your health is ultimately your responsibility, and the best way to be healthy is to keep calm and carry on.Realestate.com.kh is proud to bring back Cambodia’s biggest Property & Lifestyle Market Expo which will be held on 7th and 8th August at Koh Pich Exhibition Center.Booth sales and sponsorships for Home & Lifestyle Expo 2020 are open. For more information, please contact:  Nin Kang (Khmer/Chinese)+855 78 637 323+855 93 552 305nin.kang@realestate.com.khTyler Stuart (English)+855 12 599 699+855 81 599 669tyler.stuart@realestate.com.khArticle by:

(Aerial view of buildings around Bassac area in Chamkarmon district / Realestate.com.kh) Rosewood Hotel, Phnom Penh: CBRE Fearless Forecast 2020 cited another strong year for Cambodia’s real estate sector. But Marc Townsend, Chairman of CBRE Cambodia, and the primary speaker at the event cautioned that while the Kingdom’s economy is expanding rapidly, adjustments have to be made to sustain the growth of its real estate sector.A strong entry into 2020CBRE estimates a 7.1% GDP growth for Cambodia in 2019. This can be attributed to the continuing boom in the construction sector along with tourism and overall interest in Cambodia as an alternative investment destination compared to its neighbors.According to CBRE’s report, a total of USD $9.3 billion worth of investments came into the Kingdom spread across 4,446 approved investment projects. For emphasis on the country’s relative growth, Marc Townsend cited that only 3 building licenses were issued in Ho Chi Minh city compared to the 405 building licenses that were given last year in the surrounding area of the Rosewood Hotel in Phnom Penh.(Marc Townsend, Chairman of CBRE Cambodia speaks to a room full of mostly real estate professionals and investors / Realestate.com.kh)As of Q4 2019, CBRE data shows the condominium sector had 27 new project launches and 11 completions, adding 16,500 units and 3,800 units respectively. The current condominium supply is divided among the High-End at 23%, Mid-Range at 53%, and Affordable at 24%. CBRE forecasts supplies of condominium units in 2020 to be divided into High-End at 24%, Mid-Range at 46%, and Affordable at 30%. The shift towards affordable units is cited to be due to the healthy demand among Cambodian buyers.Upcoming condominium projects, provided they finish on schedule, are expected to put some downward pressure on prices across all segments of the market.The CBRE report also states that housing loans increased by 30% this 2019 from USD $2.9B to USD $3.4B. Consumer loans increased at the same time from USD $6.2B to $ 7.1B this year. CBRE attributes these increase in loans to appreciating property values, lifestyle changes of Cambodians, and increasing competition within the banking sector.(A shot over the ocean and Sihanoukville's skyline as of 2020 / Realestate.com.kh)Development funds have also diversified in Cambodia. Marc Townsend shares that these companies barely had any presence in the country’s capital markets almost a decade ago but in 2019, these have diversified into construction loans, formal & informal fund structures, bonds, IPOs, off-shore lending, crowd-funding, and venture capitals.Cambodia, overall, remains an attractive investment destination compared to its neighbors. For example, data from CBRE cites that land prices in Ho Chi Minh city, as of Q4 2019, now go up to USD $30,000 per sqm in the inner city compared to USD $6,000 per sqm in Daun Penh.These are but a few of the overall data presented suggesting that the Cambodian economy is expected to continue to see economic growth this coming 2020. It is, however, not free of challenges, as we’ve seen this past year.Challenges of sustaining Cambodia’s economic growthThe two elephants in the room, according to the conference’s attendees during the Q&A, were the EBA withdrawal and the threat of property oversupply that could negatively impact the market.Of the surveyed attendees, most agreed that the EBA withdrawal will have “Moderate” effects on the Cambodian economy. While it could have ripple effects in the real estate sector, nobody knows what would ultimately happen until it happens, according to the speakers.As for the issue of oversupply, Marc Townsend introduced the idea that if there is an oversupply, then why are prices continuing to rise? He cites Vietnam as an example when it took off as a real estate venture. According to him, when the government relaxed regulations on foreign ownership, the property market went ballistic.(A recent sky view of under-construction buildings in Sihanoukville city / Realestate.com.kh) The same could be expected of the Cambodian real estate sector as it develops. Many of the high-end condominiums are available for the local Cambodian elite, with most units likely being owned by foreigners through strata-titles. And as more mid-range and affordable units come into stock, more local middle-class buyers will likely purchase their own condominium units.Infrastructure in Cambodia has grown significantly in the past decade but it may face slowdowns if project managers are slow to push their developments forward. The news of national roads and ring roads being constructed/rehabilitated is driving land prices up and might cause roadblocks to project development due to price haggling and owner holdouts. Without swift resolutions, infrastructure developments (such as the aforementioned roads) will have difficulty meeting their target dates.Marc Townsend also cautions Cambodia of the shift in priorities of big multinational investment firms. BlackRock, an investment management company handling USD $7 trillion in assets, instructed their fund managers to prioritise investment ventures that consider their environmental impact. This shift in socio-environmental requirements is likely to be followed by other investment firms and thus, must be considered by Cambodian stakeholders starting in 2020 to attract foreign investment in the future.Ensuring tourist safety also came up as a means of growing the Kingdom’s tourism sector. Marc Townsend suggests that most tourists, especially the Chinese, value safety as a top concern when visiting a foreign country. A disciplined and well-equipped police force looking out for both the locals’ and foreign visitors’ well-being will only drive up tourism confidence in the Kingdom. This point is supported by a report from the Khmer Times where the Shanghai Chief of Police asked the Cambodian National Police to ensure the security of Chinese businessmen and travelers in the Kingdom.The conference also discussed the recent construction-related accidents. Marc Townsend was clear these tragedies are an industry problem that must be addressed by developers by applying basic safety standards, the usage of quality materials, and adherence to the new government regulations. He lauded the passing of the much-awaited construction law and is hopeful Cambodia’s construction sector will avoid such tragedies ever again.(Sihanoukville's skyline adjacent to the city's Independence Beach / Realestate.com.kh) As Cambodia enters a new decade of development, winners, and losers in the real estate sector will likely be determined by an investor/developer’s ability to take advantage of Cambodia’s strengths and overcome the challenges presented.Realestate.com.kh is proud to bring back Cambodia’s biggest Property & Lifestyle Market Expo which will be held on 7th and 8th August at Koh Pich Exhibition Center.Booth sales and sponsorships for Home & Lifestyle Expo 2020 are open. For more information, please contact:  Nin Kang (Khmer/Chinese)+855 78 637 323+855 93 552 305nin.kang@realestate.com.khTyler Stuart (English)+855 12 599 699+855 81 599 669tyler.stuart@realestate.com.khArticle by:

Why bother to go on a trip when you could just come home after a long day at work and feel like staying in a luxury resort. This is what The Palms is offering.Developed by Oxley-Worldbridge (Cambodia) Co., Ltd, a joint-venture between Worldbridge Land (Cambodia) Co., Ltd, a Cambodia-based real estate company, and Oxley Holdings Limited, a Singapore-based property developer.The Palms is the first luxury resort-like residential project in the adjacent of the city centre that offers cluster houses including villas, riverside boardwalks and a whole range of facilities where you can indulge yourself and loved ones all year-round.The group has also produced other successful landmark projects in Phnom Penh such as The Bridge and The Peak.The Palms is located in Chbar Ampov district alongside the majestic Mekong River. It features a collection of over 200 exclusive cluster homes and superbly luxurious villas surrounded by palm trees, lush greeneries, and glistening waters - a perfect setup for a home seemingly a world away from the hustle-and-bustle of the city.Residents of The Palms can live a life of unprecedented resort amenities within a private community. Every unit has access to terrace living rooms, man-made beaches, BBQ dining pavilions, water playgrounds, hydrotherapy pools, several lap pools, and even a grand lagoon pool.Its resort villas range from 377 sqm up to 1086 sqm of total floor space and are built with the finest fixtures that make The Palms project the quintessential example of understated luxury resort living. The highest-end of these villas are the waterfront villas where residents are just a few steps away from the Mekong boardwalk, an esplanade for leisurely walks complemented by the cool breeze from the river.But what is luxury living without conveniences? The Palms sits right along National Road 1 and is a 5-minute drive away from the Tonle Bassac Bridge. This quick access to the bridge allows its residents to easily navigate anywhere in Phnom Penh through Preah Norodom, Preah Monivong, and Hun Sen Blvd. And with the city’s biggest mall yet, AEON Mall 3, opening in 2023, The Palms’ residents can truly have everything they could want and need at their doorsteps.Offers of luxury living are plastered all over Phnom Penh, but few can truly compare to The Palm’s unique concept of resort-leisure living. It also is the first development of its kind that brings high-end resort-living to city dwellers.With the commencement of construction in May 2018, the project is expected to be completed by end of 2020.Click here to earn more about The Palms. For more information or inquiries please call: 092 92 1000 or e-mail: info@realestate.com.khRealestate.com.kh is proud to bring back Cambodia’s biggest Property & Lifestyle Market Expo which will be held on 7th and 8th August at Koh Pich Exhibition Center.Booth sales and sponsorships for Home & Lifestyle Expo 2020 are open. For more information, please contact:  Nin Kang (Khmer/Chinese)+855 78 637 323+855 93 552 305nin.kang@realestate.com.khTyler Stuart (English)+855 12 599 699+855 81 599 669tyler.stuart@realestate.com.kh

At the beginning of the new year of 2020, Cambodia’s robust construction industry was abruptly hit by a mishap. On January 3, a six-storey building under construction in the coastal town Kep collapsed, which claimed the lives of 36 people and left 23 injured.This incident is no more than half a year after the collapse of a seven-storey building construction in Sihanoukville last year.Hidden dangers caused by human errors and poor supervision have once again cast a haze on Cambodia’s construction and property industry. These events should serve as a reminder to developers and buyers they should remain vigilant and cautious as far as the credibility and qualification of a contractor or builder are concerned.When we take a look at how things are in Sihanoukville, we see a city reeling in from a collective tragedy. Since the aftermath of a construction accident, the local government has been tirelessly redeeming itself to sustain the stride of growing urban infrastructure and property development. Even though the city looks like a massive construction site, Sihanoukville is changing day-to-day, especially in a dry season in Southeast Asia, known as a golden season in the construction industry.It was on the same day as the accident in Kep that Happy City was successfully completed. The project is located at the main access into Sihanoukville, where National Highway 4 and the developing Phnom Penh-Sihanoukville expressway converges. This modern piece of architecture is a 30-storey high-end residence providing fully-furnished condo and community amenities, ideal for both residential and/or holiday purposes. It sits on a highland of the city and overlooks the Victory and Independent Beach. This means the property is framed to be one of the best choices of valuable investment in Sihanoukville.The opening of Happy CityHappy City is developed by Yuejing (Cambodia) Real Estate Co., Ltd., a developer with years of property construction and management.The project will be handed over by the end of 2020, and become one of the first of the completed residential projects in this beachside city. As Happy City was completed as scheduled, the developer has proved its upstanding reputation and its ability to manage projects well.Happy City is only 1.9 kilometers away from the coast, and the beautiful Victory Beach and Independence Beach are visible from the fifth floor and above. To the south of the project, is the municipal centre, while the downtown commercial hub is to its west connected with smooth traffic. This enviable location ensures satisfaction for a holiday or an elegant urban lifestyle. Moreover, the industrial zones of the Sihanoukville port, its collection of casinos, and the natural hospitality of the Khmer is a huge advantage for Happy City's rental prospects. Its property management practices are in line with international standard services, so as to preserve owners’ interests and uphold residents’ well-being.Happy City has 1,600 studio apartments, all of which are exquisitely designed and avant-garde, ranging from 30.57 to 42.44 sqm in size, and equipped with top-grade furniture and essential home appliances such as air conditioning and television. They are available to stay upon key turning.The unit price starts from only 40,000 US dollars, a small investment with low risk and financially sound. The unit comes with freehold ownership and no inheritance tax. At the moment a two-year return rate of 8% per year definitely makes Happy City a good investment in Sihanoukville.Realestate.com.kh is proud to bring back Cambodia’s biggest Property & Lifestyle Market Expo which will be held on 7th and 8th August at Koh Pich Exhibition Center.Booth sales and sponsorships for Home & Lifestyle Expo 2020 are open. For more information, please contact:  Nin Kang (Khmer/Chinese)+855 78 637 323+855 93 552 305nin.kang@realestate.com.khTyler Stuart (English)+855 12 599 699+855 81 599 669tyler.stuart@realestate.com.kh
