9. REVALUATION POLICY OF LANDED PROPERTIES<br />

The Group’s landed properties classified under property, plant and equipment are not revalued, but are<br />

properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. For landed properties<br />

classified as investment properties, the Group assesses the fair value at the end of each financial year<br />

and the change in fair value is taken as gains or losses in the income statement.<br />
