Bintai Kinden Corporation Berhad (Bursa: BINTAI, 6998), a mechanical and electrical (M&E) engineering services specialist, is venturing in digital assets through wholly-owned subsidiary Bintai Trading Sdn Bhd (BTSB) as part of the Company’s treasury management while taking into consideration longer-term needs in business expansion.

Executive Director of Bintai Kinden, En. Azri Azerai

As part of this initiative and to take into consideration the longer-term needs, BTSB has an account with a digital currency exchange licensed by the Securities Commission Malaysia.

Azri Azerai, Executive Director of Bintai Kinden said, “This is an opportune time to venture into digital assets as values across the board has fallen, especially among the main ones such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. We will devote a portion of our free cashflow for digital assets and will take a dollar-cost averaging approach when buying into them.”

“This is also part of our treasury management as we need to ensure cashflow to manage our daily operations while taking into consideration our longer term needs and strategies involving the M&E business. We will continue to seek opportunities in Malaysia and neighbouring countries to expand.”

According to Coinbase Global Inc.’s 2023 Crypto Market Outlook published in December 2022, a flight to quality among institutional investors; creative destruction that will eventually lead to new opportunities and; foundational reforms that usher in the next cycle, are the key themes for the year.

The Coinbase report noted that the coefficients that led to the high, positive correlation between Bitcoin and Ethereum versus US stocks have trended lower since May 2022 and expects investors to select higher-quality cryptocurrencies based on factors such as sustainable tokenomics, maturity of ecosystems and relative market liquidity.

A survey sponsored by Coinbase, the “2022 Institutional Investor Digital Assets Survey”, conducted between September 21 and October 27, 2022 among 140 institutional participants, revealed that 53.6% expect cryptocurrency prices to remain range-bound over the next 12 months versus 29.3% who expect prices to trend lower while 7.9% expect prices to trend higher and 9.3% expressed no opinion on where prices will move.

Green Power Energy’s 20 MW Taungdaw Gwin Build-Own-Operate Solar Plant Commissioned in Myanmar

Myanmar’s latest solar energy plant, the 20 megawatt (MW) build-own-operate (BOO) Taungdaw Gwin project, has been officially opened, adding a new chapter to the country’s sustainability and electrification efforts, its developer announced today.

The project was developed by Green Power Energy Company Limited (GPE), a subsidiary of Gold Energy Company Limited (GE), a leading renewable energy developer in Myanmar.

Taungdaw Gwin is the second mega-scale solar project to be completed by the GE group. Clean Power Energy Limited, another GE subsidiary, completed the 30 MW Thapyay Wa project in Mandalay district in December 2021.

With the official opening of the Taungdaw Gwin project, GE’s solar energy capacity stands at 50 MW. GE also operates the 120 MW Thaukyegat (2) Hydropower Project (TYG), commissioned in 2013.

Located on an 80.9-hectare site southeast of Kyaukse, Myit Thar Township, the Taungdaw Gwin project utilizes a solar tracking system so as to maximize photovoltaic (PV) energy captured by 45,980 solar panels. The project is expected to generate 25.1 MW of direct current or 22.9 MW of alternating current per year.

The Taungdaw Gwin project began transmission to the National Grid on 17 November 2022. The energy output is directly linked to the Taungdaw Gwin substation and is connected to the national grid via a 69.6 km 33-kV transmission line built by GPE.

In line with its commitment to give back to the community, the GPE team conducted an in-depth Environmental and Social Impact Assessment before construction. This enabled an understanding of the impact on nearby communities and the environment and helped to facilitate construction in a responsible and sustainable manner.

Through engaging with local community leaders to understand the needs of the residents surrounding Taungdaw Gwin, the GPE team constructed and installed two overpasses measuring 20.1 metres long by 4.5 metres wide. These and other efforts have improved socio-economic benefits to the community in this otherwise harsh area which had faced challenges of accessibility during the development phase of this important project.

U Zaw Win, Managing Director of GPE, said: “We are proud of the successful completion of the Taungdaw Gwin solar facility. We look forward to a sustainable energy source for the future of Myanmar.

“As a partner in nation-building, GPE is deeply committed to infrastructure development and sustainability in Myanmar. This and other renewable energy projects we are involved in will increase the contribution of renewable energy to the national grid while advancing the country’s national electrification goals.”

About Green Power Energy (GPE)
Green Power Energy Company Limited (GPE), a subsidiary of Gold Energy Company Limited (GE), is a renewable energy developer. GPE completed the Taungdaw Gwin solar PV facility, which was officially opened in December 2022. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, GPE completed the project earlier than scheduled.

The solar energy is connected to the Taungdaw Gwin substation, part of the national grid, via a 69.6 km 33-kV transmission line built by GPE. As GPE continues to build upon its track record and execution capabilities, it remains committed to contributing to Myanmar’s clean energy sector in the coming years. Visit https://gpenergymm.com/.

Civil engineering specialist Sarawak Consolidated Industries Berhad (SCIB) held the Company’s 46th AGM virtually today in which shareholders voted to reappoint NEXIA SSY PLT as the auditor and authorised the directors to fix its remuneration.

Group MD and CEO of SCIB, Encik Rosland bin Othman

Shareholders also passed a resolution authorising the issuance and allotment of shares pursuant to Sections 75 and 76 of the Companies Act 2016 while waiving their pre-emptive rights.

The resolutions to re-elect Dato’ Dr. Ir. Ts. Mohd Abdul Karim bin Abdullah and Datu Haji Abdul Hadi bin Datuk Abdul Kadir to the board of directors were not tabled as they retired effective 8 December 2022. Other resolutions passed included the reappointments of eligible directors up for re-election.

Group Managing Director of SCIB, Encik Rosland bin Othman, said, “We are happy to engage with our shareholders virtually in the AGM today and answer their questions. On behalf of SCIB, I would like to thank them for having placed their trust and confidence in us at what has been a challenging period. We would also like to thank both Dato’ Dr. Ir. Ts. Mohd Abdul Karim and Datu Haji Abdul Hadi for their years of leadership and dedication to SCIB.”

“I can confidently say that the Company is looking forward to 2023 following the measures we have adopted focusing on our strengths and ensuring our resilience in the face of changes in the construction industry.”

Among the measures the Company took is a kitchen-sinking exercise pertaining to the recent cancellation of four projects as well as the settlement agreement over six projects in Qatar and Oman. These measures were taken to safeguard the Company’s interests. In respect of the cancellation of the five projects, the decision was taken after reviewing and updating the Company’s order book records to reflect the current situation while, in respect of the projects in Qatar and Oman, there is no financial impact to the trade receivables.

“In regards to the outlook, as East Malaysia’s leading precast concrete and Industrialised Building System (IBS) manufacturer, we expect Sarawak Economic Development Corp’s successful tender of the RM448 million System Package Two contract for the Kuching Urban Transportation System project phase one to have positive impact for the state economy while the announcement of the RM50 billion MRT3 project will spur demand for civil engineering services and building materials as well as give a much needed boost to the nation’s construction sector.”

“We intend to leverage on our strengths as a leading precast concrete and IBS manufacturer to seek opportunities for our engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) business where we specialise in small-to-mid-sized projects for water, electricity, roads, health and education infrastructure. SCIB’s geographical scope expanded to Peninsular Malaysia in recent years and we are also seeking EPCC opportunities in neighbouring Kalimantan in which our manufacturing business can play a pivotal role. To ensure business sustainability, we have also adopted technology such as 3D printing for construction as we transform to meet the challenges of the present and the future.”

As of 30 November 2022, SCIB has an order book of RM564.7 million with earnings visibility until 2026.

SCIB Posts 14.5% Increase in Revenue to RM30.3 Million in 1Q FY2023

  • Company sees LBT narrow by 65.3% and revenue contribution from manufacturing increase by 26.8%

Civil engineering specialist Sarawak Consolidated Industries Berhad (SCIB) today announced that the Company registered a 14.5% increase in revenue to RM30.3 million for the first quarter ended 30 September 2022 (1Q FY2023) compared with RM26.5 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year (1Q FY2022).

Group MD and CEO of SCIB, Encik Rosland bin Othman
Independent Non-Executive Chairman, Encik Shamsul Anuar bin Ahamad Ibrahim

For the quarter under review, SCIB’s loss before tax (LBT) narrowed by 65.3% to RM942,000 compared with LBT of RM2.7 million in 1Q FY2022.

On a segmental basis, revenue contribution from manufacturing increased 26.8% to RM24.2 million in 1Q FY2023 compared with RM19.1 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year while revenue contribution from the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) business decreased 16.9% to RM6.2 million from RM7.4 million.

Group Managing Director of SCIB, Encik Rosland bin Othman, said, “The manufacturing business continues to be the mainstay in the quarter under review. It has also returned to profitability as there was a profit before tax of RM1.0 million compared with LBT of RM217,000 in 1Q FY2022 mainly attributable to the increase in revenue and contribution margins from the sales of concrete products and lower administrative expenses. The EPCC business saw a slight decline and while there was a loss, profitability actually improved as a result of lower administrative expenses.”

“We remain cautiously optimistic as we leverage on our strengths as the largest precast concrete and Industrialised Building System (IBS) manufacturer in Sarawak and Sabah to continue seeking opportunities in Peninsular Malaysia and Indonesia focusing on small-to-mid-sized infrastructure for water, electricity, roads, health and education projects.

Chairman of SCIB, Encik Shamsul Anuar bin Ahamad Ibrahim added, “We view favourably Sarawak Economic Development Corp’s successful tender of the RM448 million System Package Two contract for the Kuching Urban Transportation System project phase one as such projects have positive spillover for the state economy.”

“The Company recently unveiled an IBS sample house built with 3D printer technology to showcase the important role technology has and will continue to have in the construction industry. These technology initiatives will play an increasingly important role for us as we transform to meet the challenges of the present and the future,” En. Shamsul Anuar said.

The Company also announced separately on the stock exchange that SCIB and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SCIB International (Labuan) Ltd., SCIB Properties Sdn. Bhd. and SCIB Industrialised Building System Sdn. Bhd, have issued notices of termination to four clients to mutually terminate contracts with them.

En. Rosland said, “The Company is enforcing its rights under the contracts and taking the necessary measures to protect SCIB’s interests in mitigating the risks arising from the long-overdue debts owing by the clients or the slow or non-movement of progress for projects that these clients have undertaken due to uncertainties arising from the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the economic and political situations. We also made this decision after reviewing and updating the Company’s order book records to reflect the current situation.”

As of 30 November 2022, SCIB has an order book of RM564.7 million with earnings visibility until 2026.

SKYX Secures 10-Year Roof Rights for Signage on One of The Tallest Buildings in Miami

  • The Brand-New Building is Located in Downtown Miami on US-1, Across From Miami Heat FTX Arena and Biscayne Bay
  • Due to the Unique and Strategic Location of the Building, the SKYX Roof Signs are Expected to be Seen by Tens of Millions, Including on TV Shows and Skyline Miami Imagery, Creating Significant SKYX Brand Awareness

SKYX Platforms Corp. (NASDAQ:SKYX) (d/b/a Sky Technologies) (SKYX, we or “the Company), a highly disruptive platform technology company with over 60 issued and pending patents globally for simplifying and enhancing safety and automation in homes and buildings, today announced that it secured a 10-year roof right lease for signage on one of the tallest buildings in downtown Miami, across the street from the Miami Heat FTX Arena and Biscayne Bay.

(opens in a new tab)

The new building is located on 400 Biscayne Blvd (US-1) and will include office space, residential as well as a high-end modern hotel. The downtown Miami area is both a U.S. and international hub for world leading companies – with the SKYX rooftop signage expected to be seen by tens of millions, including on TV shows and on Miami skyline imagery.

As part of the lease, SKYX has also secured a high-end, state of the art, high ceiling office space with 360-degree views and expects to open its U.S. and international sales offices, as well as its corporate headquarters, in the new location in 2023. As part of the agreement, the Company can start paying rent in January 2024. In addition, the Landlord will provide the Company with an improvement allowance of up to $2.25 million, which may be used for the construction of the Premises, including the reasonable cost of design, space planning, consultants, and construction drawings. The Company intends to use part of the office space and to sublease the remainder to minimize expenses.

Rani Kohen, Founder and Executive Chairman of SKYX Platforms, said: “Securing a long-term lease for SKYX signage and offices in the heart of downtown Miami provides an incredible level of brand awareness for SKYX. As reported, FTX paid $135 million to secure a long-term lease for naming of our next-door neighbor’s building, the Miami Heat Arena, now called FTX arena – and that speaks for itself.

“As we position ourselves to embark on our commercialization journey, this provides a significant foundation for our company on many levels. I look forward to moving into this exciting new space and elevating our public profile through continued operational execution, with the objective of creating sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders,” concluded Kohen.
