| Alphaland sells stake in Shangri-La <b>hotel</b> to <b>Malaysia's</b> Kuok Group Posted: 30 Apr 2014 04:17 AM PDT InterAksyon.com means BUSINESS MANILA - The property firm of former trade minister Roberto V. Ongpin has sold its entire stake in the Shangri-La at the Fort to the property arm of Malaysia's Kuok Group. In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, Alphaland Corp said its wholly owned subsidiary completed today a deal to sell its 20 percent interest in the hotel to units of Shang Properties Inc for a cash consideration of P1.7 billion. The upscale leisure developer's divestment comes at a time when it is faced with difficulties, stemming from its dispute with former controlling shareholder Ashmore Group. According to Alphaland, the UK-based fund had refused to fund the property developer and had intended to divest but has yet to find a buyer for its stake. Banks had declined to lend money to Alphaland amid uncertainty over the ownership structure of the Philippine firm. Alphaland last January called for more capital from shareholders, allowing the Ongpin group to wrest control of the property developer. The PSE has suspended trading of Alphaland shares since January 20 as the bourse evaluates the repercussions of a disclosure related to the alleged simulated sale of the company's shares in 2012 so the firm can maintain its listed status. The bourse is also reviewing the leisure developer's recent issuance of shares pursuant to a property swap and capital call. Last month, the PSE found Alphaland in violation of its rules for failure to submit full, fair, accurate and timely disclosures of material information. Citing the property firm's repeated violations of disclosures rules, the bourse initiated involuntary delisting procedures over the company and its securities. Alphaland is entitled to a delisting hearing under the Exchange's Rules on Delisting. |

(photo credits: http://www.containerhotel.com.my) I have never thought that staying in a budget hotel can be this comfortable. Don't get me wrong, I also like luxury hotels and the feeling that it gives, but during my trip to Malaysia I'm up for some adventure! I have booked my reservation through www.booking.com, they don't charge fees whatsoever for the reservation, you will only need a credit card to guarantee your booking with them and you will pay the total amount on the hotel itself when you arrive. Our check in time should be before 2pm, but the hotel is so kind that they have acknowledged my emai that we will be arriving around 8pm since Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 is less than an hour from the City Centre. We stayed there for 1 night, and the experience is amazing! the place is designed very well made out of containers and even the rooms! Yes, even the rooms! And the place has Wifi too! Container Hotel is an eco-friendly hotel that emphasises on going green, plus it wont hurt your wallet, and how they design the place is very artistic and one of a kind! Located at No 1, Jalan Delima, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, approx. 10 -15 minutes from Petronas Tower. They have 4 types of rooms: 1. OUTGOING (Double Decker Single Bed ( Dormitory )
(photo credits: http://www.containerhotel.com.my) 2. ADVENTURE (1 Super Single Bed)
(photo credits: http://www.containerhotel.com.my) where we actually stayed for a night. and it is sooooo cool! ( i mean it! ) 3. CONSERVATIVE (1 Queen Bed)
4. OUTGOING (group)
You will meet a lot of back-packers too who's also up for an adventure! Here are some photos I took during my stay the container rooms
if you are staying at an adventure room like we did, you will need to use this panel with this huge mirror, what is more beautiful when you meet people while brushing your teeth or scrubbing your face? haha look how Zen-type it is…
the Zen-type Comfortable lounge, so you can have a seat and grab some Ice-cold beer, and well of course meet new people! they serve coffee, bread with spreads and tea for free! :)
Some of their designs that I find very nice …
Well, it was indeed a one-of-a-kind stay and experience, gave me a different feeling of excitement and let me explore other place to stay. The Hotels Supervisor/Crew JB is very nice! We had a good laugh talking about the hotel and Malaysia! You might wanna give it a shot! Over all, my verdict during my stay is (comparing to other budget hostels/hotels) : Rating : 8.5/10 (Very Good) Price: 4 /5 stars (very cheap room starts at 85RM) Facilities: 3.5 /5 stars Location: 4/5 stars Service: 5/5 stars Useful Links and Information/s you might find helpful: They were ranked #10 out of 254 B&B and Inn in Kuala Lumpur by Tripadvisor To book your stay or to know more about Container Hotel – http://www.containerhotel.com.my/ *this post is not sponsored and not paid, purely my reviews and opinion about the hotel xx Deanna ( http://talkaboutbeauty.wordpress.com/ ) 3.223426 101.716727 .
