but as NO actual address given for 2) & 3), might even turn out to be the same ppty ??
note that all three had about the same buildup area - 56,700 sqft

1) EHL's ppty at 12 Hoy Fatt Rd - asking $33m

3) A $28m building at Hoy Fatt Rd - no address given

Maybe agents also confused liao...
Hmmm...still only a few recent listings on commercial guru selling Bryton House. Guess it's still not officially up for sale yet.

Unsuccessful sale also need some time to 'complete'?
No need to be officially on sale. Just send the info to some agents and they will market.
But should just call for a proper tender. $27m is not a small amount.

Should bring this up at the coming AGM.
Maybe EHL decided not to sell it anymore?

This trend is catching on. More and more are doing the advance approval thing. They are not the first. The argument is that the directors can be paid as they do their jobs and not having to wait for the next year to receive their fees.

BTW these 2 IDs was not around when the alleged offences was committed.

A quick check showed that Managing Director is not subjected to retirement by rotation.

Two directors that has served the longest period since re-election or appointment will be up for rotation.
So it is either Kenneth, Diong or Narayan.
EHL Annual Report is out on SGX website.
