SINGAPORE: Mapletree Investments has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on a joint venture with Japan's ITOCHU Corporation to undertake "Build-to-Suit" development projects for logistics tenants in Japan.
The companies agreed to extend their collaboration on investment and development of logistics, retail, industrial and commercial real estate projects in Japan, Singapore and the rest of Asia.
The extension of this strategic alliance for a further two years was done through another MOU.
This is the second extension of the MOU, which was first signed in October 2005 to collaborate in logistics real estate and extended in November 2007 through a Supplemental MOU (SMOU), in order to expand the scope of collaboration.
Mr Hiew Yoon Khong, CEO, Mapletree said: "We are delighted to continue our mutually successful and enriching partnership with ITOCHU. The October 2005 MOU and November 2007 SMOU facilitated Mapletree's entry into the logistics real estate market in Japan.
"Through our collaboration with ITOCHU, Mapletree has been able to establish its footprint in the logistics real estate market in Japan with the acquisition of seven logistics assets in Japan, worth a total of S$571 million.
"ITOCHU is also now an investor in our Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) which holds the S$1.7 billion industrial assets privatised by JTC Corporation."

Mapletree Log under heavy consolidation in the price range of $0.71 ~ $0.72 for the past 7 trading days..
Going to shoot soon...
Seems like since morning gap down, the price has been held steady at $0.705 ~ $0.710..
And the volume is so high !!!!
I guess the ppl buying are the LONGIST and the ppl selling are the SHORTIST...
Nonetheless, I still believe in this counter and will continue to hold..
=)

too many fund raising
people get fed up and walk away
this guy actually considered another rights issue but back off knowing it will not be well received
that why
Anyone know what is the below abt??
"Advanced distribution of approximately 0.74 to 0.76 cents per unit for the period from 1 October 2009 to the day immediately prior to the date on which the new units in MapletreeLog in connection with the private placement are issued. "
Does it means existing shareholders get the extra 0.74 cts to 0.76 cts DPU before the new units are traded??
This means the yield will be increased quite a bit prior to the trading of the new units???
Sianzzzz...
Private placement at 69 cts ~ 71 cts..
Once trading halt lifted, will it gap down??
YES !!
GOOD NEWS !!!
Mapletree acquired a new property without equity fundraising from shareholders..
Increased DPU of $0.04.... !!!
MAPLETREE TRADING HALT !!!!
Acquisition news???
I hope is gd news...
