History begins… The EDGE Investment Forum on REAL ESTATE 20094 April 2009, being one of the 3 speakers of the forum and the 1st Lawyer to be invited for this distinguished forum since its inception, I proudly addressed the 600s strong crowd at this real estate forum organized by The Edge at the Sime Darby Convention Centre, exclusively for the Edge readers. Judging from the long waiting list, this could easily be a sell-out event of 1,500s if the venue permits. Well done, the Edge – Foong Yee and the team at City & Country!
Marveling the theme of “Nightmares of a Landlord” in a Hollywood style (literally), I lauded the idea of having a Landlords Association. Elaborating on how an association would give landlords the opportunity to share information and set up a tenant database which would help in the tenant screening process, as well as lobbying for better regulations to make property investment even more attractive, we put ourselves forward in the form of “Hi5er Club”.
History is written … Introducing the FIRST in the World Hi5er Club…
Hi5er Club would serves as a platform to kick-start the formation of a landlord association. This exclusive invitation to the Hi5er Club received an overwhelming response from the participants of the Forum, as evidenced by how the CA crews were kept busy throughout the entire tea break.
Thanks to the backbreaking effort of the entire team, the Hi5er Club now has over 250 invitees, who will soon become part of history by participating in the first ever info-sharing community hosted by a law firm!
Do get a copy of the THE EDGE Malaysia Weekly of 13 April 2009 to read on the full cover of this eminent event or you may click here alternatively .
As action speaks louder than words, there will be an exciting trial launch of CA’s Hi5er Club, an information sharing community hosted by a law firm, (absolutely the first of its kind in the world!) to host a 3 months’ trial run of a Landlord Association starting from 8 April 2009 till 15 July 2009.
There shall be an array of landlord tools, sample agreements, videos, audio presentations and articles. The club enthusiastically welcomes any contribution in the form of comments, questions, or even the sharing of your own best practices!
CA Hi5er Club celebrates the continued support that CA has enjoyed throughout the years, and will be built upon the participation of high-fliers and achievers such as yourselves.

Management Journal 0409 – “Of Warren and his MOATS …”“When everyone is greedy, be cautious; when everyone is cautious, be greedy!” That’s the wisdom of Warren Buffet, one of the richest persons in the history of mankind!
So going by this “Buffetology” now, we should all be very greedy now! But are we? Yet notwithstanding that he has reminded us again by saying that he has been waiting for this time for years!
Let’s venture deeper into this, perhaps. The best place to start would be from the latest letter that Warren has written to his most treasured shareholders in Berkshire Hathaway (you better be one if you want to be on Buffet’s annual mailing list!).
