x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Adding buzz to Orchard Road: Grange Road car park to be closed, transformed into event space Read more at https://www.todayonline.com/singapore/adding-buzz-orchard-road-grange-road-car-park-be-closed-transformed-event-space The Grange Road car park behind 313@Somerset mall is to be transformed into a permanent event space as part of efforts to add buzz and vibrancy to the Orchard Road pedestrian experience and attract more visitors, three government bodies announced on Friday (Oct 4). The car park &mdash which has already held a series of one-off events such as a street market &mdash will be closed from Feb 29, 2020 as the authorities' moves to pedestrianise Singapore&rsquo s premier shopping strip gather pace. The authorities will launch a &ldquo price and quality&rdquo tender for proposals for the car park&rsquo s transformation later this month, the statement said. The 4,482 sq m carpark is about half the size of a football field with 118 car spaces and 66 motorcycle lots. Under the planned transformation, the new-look site will host flea markets, pop-up attractions, local acts and food trucks. It will be open to the public even on non-event days. ADVERTISEMENT As a centrepiece in the Somerset area, the car park has hosted six events to date, including the Flashbang street market in December 2017 and will be one of the venues for this year&rsquo s Christmas village. In the media release issued on Friday, the Urban Redevelopment Authority, the Singapore Land Authority and the Singapore Tourism Board said they will be appointing an operator to transform the car park into a &ldquo dedicated and dynamic event space with complementary commercial offerings&rdquo .

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	The initial offer price was a measly $3.50. Later they upped it to $4.05. If you look at the industries under which 68Holdings Pte Ltd was lised : " Gaming, Lodging and Restaurants" . I think, and some people indeed posed, that they might redevelop their Orchard Road properties into some kind of Casino Resort. If so, I think HPL share price would shoot through the roof. But 68 Holdings is now dissolved (as someone said below) and I think gaming is off as the moratorium on the the number of casinos has been extend for Marina Bay Sands and RWS (my understanding). lifeisgood      ( Date: 09-Oct-2019 09:50) Posted: When OBS form the consortium together with WL in 2014 to make an offer at $4.05, their intention was not to delist the company. It was explicity mentioned in the offer document. So probably they also know that $4.05 wont be good enough to entice all shareholders to accept. Therefore, a privatisation offer with the intention to delist, should it come, should be higher than the previous $4.05.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	The new announcemnt by Lawrence Wong about boosting the plot ratios in the CBD and prime Orchard area, to entice building owners (especially those old ones) to redevelop to include a bigger component of residential units, should benefit HPL greatly, as it has many assets both in West Orchard as well as other parts of Orchard rd.  blitz99      ( Date: 09-Oct-2019 09:08) Posted: yes this is what i am hoping and waiting for too. but its so many years and still waiting.... lifeisgood      ( Date: 17-Apr-2019 14:49) Posted: If you want to make big money on HPL, you dont want to hope for an offer by the bosses. You want them to play the Orchard Rd theme. This company has so many FREEHOLD properties in the Orchard rd and other prime locations. I want to hold this stock for a very very long time. I cant even imagine what the RBAV would be when they decide to redevelop the Orchard Rd properties.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	you are right. but last year 68 holdings returned the hpl shares to their respective holders. wheelock reprensentative also step down from HPL board. " Nassim Developments Pte. Ltd. (" Nassim" ) held 40% of the equity interest in 68 Holdings Pte. Ltd. (" 68H" ) and was therefore deemed to be interested in the shares in the Company held by 68H by virtue of Section 4 of the Securities and Futures Act. 68H has transferred 102,948,000 shares in the Company to Nassim in exchange for 68H discharging all amounts outstanding under a shareholder loan owing to Nassim. 68H has effected a selective capital reduction pursuant to which 68H distributed 14,399,282 shares in the Company to Nassim in exchange for the cancellation of all the shares Nassim held in 68H. As a result of the abovementioned two transactions, Nassim no longer holds any shares in 68H and is therefore no longer deemed to be interested in the shares of the Company held by 68H." https://links.sgx.com/FileOpen/_FORM3_Nassim_Final.ashx?App=Announcement& FileID=538859 ahberngh      ( Date: 08-Oct-2019 14:53) Posted: Let me share something. If i recall correctly, 68 Holdings was expressly set up as a joint venture in 2014  between OBS and Wheelock to privatise and/or redevelop HPL Orchard Road properties. This was supposed to happen within 5 years after whcih the JV will lapse and be dissolved. Well, 2019 is 5 years from 2014. However, I hasten to add that my memory is hazy on this and I may be wrong. Maybe someone in the know can confirm or deny. superstartup      ( Date: 08-Oct-2019 14:43) Posted: Sorry. Not able to trace further for the 27 Sep married deals from available annual reports. But If I find out something, will share over here.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	lifeisgood, good to see you still posting after so many years!  i am still holding hpl and havent been posting as things have been quiet. but its nice to see you and many others posting about hpl! lifeisgood      ( Date: 22-Jul-2014 22:34) Posted: After 68 Holdings and Peter Fu lock up over 85%   shares of HPL, it is so much more easier to push up the share price. So. I guess that is the real reason why they do the offer. blitz99      ( Date: 22-Jul-2014 22:15) Posted: closed 440

And the board includes OBS and David Fu both of who have vested interests.
