Figure 3: KTCC Project at Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu
The KTCC Project integrates the most active urban areas straddling both sides of the Terengganu River, merging them into a culturally unique and vibrant Heritage Waterfront City. The focal point of KTCC, Muara (estuary) North and South, is envisioned as the modern extension of Kuala Terengganu’s CBD, embracing both river and sea, bridging the north and south, with a distinct sense of place sculpted from its own unique blend of culture, landscape and architecture.
As part of this project, ECERDC is constructing a drawbridge to link Muara Selatan and Muara Utara. Designed as the iconic landmark of contemporary Kuala Terengganu, the drawbridge is also a traffic dispersal system. The drawbridge would be 632m long, with its
elevated structure measuring 452 metres in length. Soil Sub Technologies Limited ACN: 078 388 155 Postal Address: PO Box 154 Perth WA 6872 TEL: +61-8-9488-0800, Fax Number: +61-8-9488-0899

This meeting is set to occur over the next two weeks.

Conclusion
Mr Guy Le Page, Executive Chairman of the Company comments:
“The proposed acquisition of PLATINUM PERFORMANCE and the opportunity to take part in the construction of the A$200 million KTCC Breakwater Project presents a near term cash flow opportunity for SOI in the fast developing Terengganu State on the east coast of Malaysia. We believe that there will be further scope to expand the role of PLATINUM PERFORMANCE at the KTCC Project located in the heart of Kuala Terengganu. The addition of the KTCC to the previously announced Penor project provides SOI with a promising pipeline of Malaysian based property projects as we continue to build momentum in this part of the world. The next major milestone at Terengganu is the finalisation of the final contract that is anticipated to take place in late August 2014. We also anticipate a further update to the market on Penor within the next few weeks.”
Yours Sincerely
