$2,400 psf in 1996
– Prices up 6.1% in first nine months of 2006; still 31% lower from peak in 2Q1996 (URA)

bought by foreigners (Savills Singapore)
Exciting new lifestyle products like upmarket city condos and luxury waterfront homes likely to fuel demand

Market Outlook - Overseas
Rising demand for quality homes and residential townships in the region
Demand underpinned by strong economic growth and homeownership aspirations, especially among Asian’s growing middle-class, favourable demographics and urbanisation trends
Government’s encouragement of homeownership through measures such as low mortgage rates
Positive political and economic developments such as Vietnam’s entry into World Trade Organisation
21
Market Outlook - China
Impact of anti-speculation measures on key cities :– Beijing : Price stable, volume recovered in Sep 06
– Shanghai : Price and volume recovered in Sep 06
– Chengdu : Price and volume stable
Sustainable genuine demand for quality housing
Better growth in secondary cities
– Supported by higher economic growth, faster urbanisation rate and less impact from measures
22
Impact on Keppel Land
Limited impact on KLL’s projects
– Bulk of buyers are locals* : 60 - 90% for condos, almost 100% for township
Curb on villa land supply to lend price support to villa projects in Shanghai and Tianjin
Continued expansion into secondary growth cities and development of residential townships
* Locals exclude Hong Kong residents and overseas Chinese
