GEORGE TOWN: Government strategic fund 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) only holds 20% or 23.47 acres (9.5ha) of the 116.89 acres of freehold land it purchased in Air Itam in 2013, revealed Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng last Friday.
He also revealed that the state could not locate on state records the remaining 117.11 acres of the total 234 acres of land which 1MDB claimed to have purchased in Penang.
“We searched everywhere in the Land and Mines Office records but could not find the remaining acreage (117.11 acres). All we found were 116.89 acres. And from that, we learnt that 1MDB only owns 20% or 23.47 acres in the state. It is shocking that 1MDB bought the three pieces of land with a high price of RM1.08 billion.
“Our checks showed that 1MDB only holds one quarter or 15.09 acres on Grant No 43187 (Lot 1561), one quarter or 3.87 acres on Grant No 53264 (Lot 1584), and 4.51 acres on Grant No 4661 (Lot 1457).

All titles transferred to 1MDB Real Estate (Ayer Itam) on March 6, 2014
Lot 1584 also owned by Chong Sie Cheong, Ng Peng Wah, Tan Jiak Chye
The same as well as Farlim Properties also share ownership on Lot 1457
- amount paid not only commensurate but highly attractive,” Lodin said
he verbally said he would come but no follow-up since,” he added.
Sept 20 The Edge revealed 1MDB land deals
I recall handling a land transaction involving about 200 acres in Kedah. It was for our power plant (IPP) that we built. We bought the land from Boustead Holdings. The guy handling the transaction in Boustead was jittery about the procedures for making the payments. We were jittery too because we did not want to be delayed. On top of it all the banks’ were financing it and the banks’ had their lawyers ready to put a charge on the land. Quite water tight.
When you buy and sell land, you buy and sell the land titles – which are pieces of paper. All the relevant information is on the land titles, including the size or area and the location coordinates.
You can get a professional land surveyor to map out the place to make sure that the information on the land title matches the actual land on the ground. Just to make sure the land has not been swallowed by the neighbor’s fence or a road has not been built through the property or even if a river has not changed course and eaten up some of the land. These things can and do happen.
