2001, the group invested in their head office at 22 Malacca Street in Raffles Place, Singapore. The property was bought with an occupancy rate of less than 30%. A substantial capital expenditure was devoted to refurbishment and together with an aggressive marketing strategy to populate the building with tenants; the group has a building today that is 100% occupied with a waiting list.

2003, the group ventured into commercial properties in Dubai and Malaysia. The world went into recession; and the group reevaluated their holdings to achieve the right tenancy mix to meet the global slump. In 2007, two commercial buildings were purchased in Chinatown. With the successful tenders in Chinatown, the focus shifted to begin tendering for government lands to build hotels to meet the future needs of tourist bed count in Singapore. The Chinatown properties were converted into boutique hotels that provided added value to the group’s assets. A successful bid was also made for the land at Merchant road, Singapore and converted the area into a 203 room business hotel and office building managed by Park Regis Hospitality. The property was profitably sold in 2010.
