MALAYSIA HAS MANY THINGS to be proud of. Among them is definitely furniture. Over the past two decades, Malaysian-made furniture has successfully established a strong reputation of stability in product quality and good value. The Malaysian furniture industry is export-oriented, with close to 80% of production exported. Export has been growing between 10%- 15% year-on- year over the past 15 years, with the exception of 2001, when depressed global sentiments caused a drop in export value. Furniture export was almost RM7.5 billion in 2006, and over RM8.5 billion in 2007 (see Table 2). Malaysia's export of furniture is expected to grow by 5%-10% annually to hit RM10 billion by 2010 in tandem with global growth.

Cheah Chor Sooi stumbles upon Ipoh as a value-for-money real estate prospect Mention Ipoh to any seasoned real estate investor and the state capital of Perak is likely to be perceived as a `forbidden city', no thanks to the snail-pace appreciation in investment value compared to neighbouring cities, notably Penang and Kuala Lumpur.

With very little going for IOI Corporation at the moment, upside seems limited. Is it worth a `hold'? IOI Corp Bhd does not look too sexy to some analysts, for now. They see very few catalysts for the stock, especially on the plantation front, given that crude palm oil (CPO) prices have no reason to rally further as local production recovers.

] ROBERT KUOK HOCK NIEN, 85 Chairman, KUOK & KERRY GROUP RM26.6 billion LAST YEAR OBVIOUSLY LEFT a bitter taste for the `Sugar King'. His main listed interests - Kerry Properties Ltd and Shangri- La Asia Ltd in Hong Kong, and Malaysian flagship PPB Group Bhd - saw their shares prices slashed by more than half after the rally in the early part of 2008. All were victims of the slump in the global financial markets and resulting economic contraction. Accordingly, his wealth has declined from RM58.1 billion previously to RM26.6 billion.

Malayan Banking Bhd Putting the Past Behind THE past year has been less than rosy for the country's largest lender as it grappled with the aftermath of its RM11 billion acquisition spree in 2008 (which included Bank Internasional Indonesia, MCB Bank in Pakistan, and An Binh Bank in Vietnam) - a pricey, and some say dicey, move. For the fourth quarter ended June 2009, Malayan Banking Bhd (Maybank) reported a net loss of RM1.1 billion - its first quarterly loss since 2001 - pulling down the year's earnings to just RM692 million, its lowest in a decade. Shareholders received a paltry RM0.08 gross dividend per share, more than 80% lower than the previous year's.

THE lacklustre performance of the local bourse has taken a toll on the country's richest. Although the total wealth of the MB 40 Richest Malaysians increased marginally over the past year, more individuals in this year's list saw their wealth levels falling. What made the difference is that the wealth of a select few, which had increased substantially, had tilted the balance to the positive. While the sluggish stock market had generally dampened the paper worth of many individuals on our list, extraordinary circumstances such as a sudden interest in certain industries and the success of some overseas stocks bode well for the few who saw their fortunes rising.
