Malaysian property market 'undervalued'

From AsiaFX dated 30 March 2009...


The Malaysian property market is "undervalued" in the current world economic climate, it has been claimed.

According to the investment group Frontiers, the south-east Asian economic hub is one of the opportune foreign markets in which to make a property purchase.

Despite this, head of research at the publication, Christopher Chadd, warned that the country was not immune to the global financial crisis.

Mr Chadd said: "Malaysia is holding up more robustly than the more developed economies of our world.

"The market remains undervalued compared to the rest of south-east Asia and it is still underpinned by the same fundamentals which led us to recommend Malaysia in the first place."

The foreign currency exchange rate for Malaysia is £1.00 to 5.1724 ringgits.

It was announced towards the end of last year that AirAsia X would be running a budget service between Kuala Lumpur from £99 each way.
