The freehold land and buildings were revalued by the Directors on 22 May 1990 based on independent<br />

professional valuations. In 1996, the investment properties with a net book value of RM362,124,000 at 30<br />

April 1996 were re-appraised to give a valuation of RM553,490,000 based on open market value on an<br />

existing use basis by independent firms of professional valuers which resulted in a revaluation surplus of<br />

RM191,366,000. As a matter of prudence, the Directors did not recommend that the surplus be incorporated<br />

in the accounts.
