With the on-going vaccination programme by the Government and with more than 97% of adult Malaysians fully vaccinated, we can increase our engagement with potential buyers to visit our sales gallery and promoting our new property launches in addition to our digital marketing campaign. We are also optimistic that crude palm oil (“CPO”) price will remain well supported in 2022 with the current CPO price trading above RM4,000/MT (net of export levy and duty) in Indonesia. This is due to continued good demand and a tighter global palm oil stocks, due to wet weather impact and labour constraints arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to express our sincere appreciation and thanks to our valued shareholders, customers, bankers, business associates and regulatory authorities for their continued support towards the Group. I would also like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to my Board members, management team and all employees for their commitment and teamwork towards the Group’s success. I believe that MKH Berhad is well positioned to achieve greater success in year 2022 with the continued support from all of our stakeholders. Thank you.
