ASIA PACIFIC OFFICE MARKET OVERVIEW | OCTOBER | 2009
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
REGIONAL OVERVIEW
Market Outlook
Amid the gradual improvement of global economic fundamentals, the office market in the
region also showed further encouraging signs of recovery during 3Q2009. Although the
overall occupational demand is yet to recover to the pre-financial crisis levels seen in the
first half of 2008, there were positive notes showing market stabilisation and a significant
improvement in market confidence in 3Q2009.
One of the major reasons for the strengthening of market confidence during the period
was the very strong performance of the sales side of the market in terms of the volume of
activity and the general price level achieved. In the Greater China region, the volume of
investment sales transactions was extremely active thanks to the positive sentiment among
a number of state-owned enterprises. In Beijing, three en bloc sales transactions were
registered in 3Q2009, all of which were acquired for owner-occupancy. In Guangzhou, the
major deals were the sale of the R&F Yingyue International Building and the Shanghai
Pudong Development Bank for RMB300 million and RMB400 million, respectively. In
Shanghai, domestic investors and end-users, including SOHO China and the Agricultural
Bank of China, remained active in acquiring quality developments in prime districts
during 3Q2009.
For most of the centres in the region, there were more signs that office rentals are edging
closer toward their cyclical trough during 3Q2009. Individual centres in the Greater China
region, such as Chengdu, saw mild positive rental growth during the period. Across the
region, the pace of rental decline actually tapered off further from 3.6% quarter on quarter
(QoQ) in 2Q2009 to 2.0% QoQ in 3Q2009.
With rentals stabilising, there was a general increase in the level of new space enquiries
during 3Q2009. Although lease renewals continued to be the most-favoured option for
most tenants, a number of occupiers reactivated their real estate plans in 3Q2009 and
started looking to relocate to larger and better quality premises in view of cheaper rental
offers in the marketplace and, more importantly, a better economic outlook for 2010. For
example, AIG in Singapore took advantage of the weak rental environment to relocate its
operations from two adjacent buildings on Martin Road on the fringe of the CBD to five
floors at 78 Shenton South Tower – a newly completed office building in the CBD.
Looking ahead, the pace of recovery of the occupational side of the office market in the
region will be gradual in view of the recovery path of some of the major economies, such
as the US. Further to the current round of cost-driven relocation and consolidation, the
market will pick up additional momentum if tenants are encouraged by the prospective
growth of their top line revenues. On the sales front, given the projection of a sustained
low interest rate environment over the near to medium term, the level of investment
demand will remain strong among a large group of private investors, including a range
of small to medium-size companies that want to secure office space for their long-term
business requirements.

Chengdu
• The local office market saw signs of growing demand in 3Q2009. Individual companies
that had postponed their plans during the global financial crisis started looking to relocate
to larger premises with better facilities during the period.
• The sub-market in the CBD area was particularly active, with strong leasing activity in
Central Plaza. Individual tenants, such as Panasonic, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi
and Sinosure, have taken whole floors for their new offices. With such multinational
companies as Estee Lauder and Thai Airways International Airlines entering the local
office market in 3Q2009, the average vacancy rate edged down to 29% in the quarter.
• A total of 4,564 sq m of new leasing transactions was completed during 3Q2009 and
the average prime office rental was RMB106 per sq m per month as at the end of
3Q2009.
• In the sales market, Hailirun Plaza in Dongda Street and the New Hope Building in
Renmin Road were the focus of the market thanks to their premium locations. The
average sales price at Hailirun Plaza reached RMB17,000 per sq m as at 3Q2009.
Beijing
• The Greater China project confirmed that an additional GFA of 6,500 sq m was available for lease, resulting in a small increase in Grade A office stock, despite virtually no new projects being completed in Beijing during 3Q2009.
• With financial institutions taking the lead, leasing demand was robust in 3Q2009. For example, the Beijing Rural Commercial Bank leased approximately 50,000 sq m in the north tower of Financial Street Centre, while the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank leased 30,000 sq m in Fortune Resource International Centre. The overall vacancy rate edged down 2.20 percentage points to 16.98% as at the end of 3Q2009.
• However, the economic fundamentals and market conditions continued to put pressure on many landlords. This resulted in a consecutive decrease in Grade A office net effective rents by 1.92% quarter on quarter (q-o-q) to an average of RMB165.89 per sq m per month as at the end of 3Q2009.
• The investment sales market was very active in 3Q2009, with three en bloc sales properties for owner-occupancy transacted, demonstrating the optimistic market sentiment among many state-owned enterprises.

• The office market saw growing demand in 3Q2009, with the average rental for Grade
A office space rising by 4.3% q-o-q to US$18.50 per sq ft per month in 3Q2009.
• The average office vacancy rate decreased from 25.91% in 2Q 2009 to 22.84% in 3Q
2009.
• The investment market was active during 3Q2009, with two major sales transactions in
Pearl River New City recorded. This included the sale of the R&F Yingyue International
Building to Infinitus (China) Co., Ltd. and the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank
for RMB300 million and RMB420 million, respectively.
Shanghai
• The Grade A office market stabilised in 3Q2009, with the average rental standing at RMB7.0 per sq m per day. However, it was still down 32% compared with its peak in 2008.
• Three office buildings were completed during 3Q2009, including the HSBC Building (Shanghai ifc South Tower) in Lujiazui, and the GC Tower and the China Diamond Exchange Centre in Zhuyuan. The overall vacancy rate of Grade A office space edged down 0.4 percentage points to 13.7% q-o-q in 3Q2009.
• Domestic investors and end-users showed further confidence in 3Q2009 by acquiring properties in prime districts. For instance, SOHO China, the Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank and the Agricultural Bank of China acquired either en-bloc or strata-title office buildings located in the Jing’an and Pudong districts.
• Market sentiment will continue to ride on the policy initiative of Shanghai becoming the “International Financial Centre by 2020”. It is our forecast that the rate of rental decline will narrow to 15% in 2009 and rents will bottom out by 2011.

Taipei
• The economic performance saw signs of a recovery in 3Q2009, with exports, private
consumption and investment regaining some rebound momentum.
• On the supply front, the completion of the Kelti Xinyi Building provided an additional
6,000 ping to the total office stock. Due to an uninspiring absorption rate, the overall
vacancy rate increased from 11.17% in 2Q2009 to 12.76% in 3Q2009.
• With the gradual contraction of negotiation margins, the average effective rental increased
mildly from NT$2,456 per ping per month in 2Q2009 to NT$2,462 per ping per month
in 3Q2009.
• The signing of a cross-Strait Memorandum of Understanding and Economic Cooperation
Framework Agreement with China is expected to provide a long-term push to the local
office market.However, the market is predicted to see a further increase in the vacancy
rate over the near term.

Hong Kong
• Office rentals showed further signs of stabilisation in 3Q2009. The average prime office
rentals declined 1.3% q-o-q to HK$41.23 per sq ft per month in the quarter, narrowing
significantly from the decline of 12.1% q-o-q in 2Q2009.
• Investors remained keen to commit to any quality opportunistic stock available for sale
due to expectations of sustained low borrowing costs and further capital growth during
3Q2009. Individual popular strata-titled office buildings saw a growth in prices in the
order of 10% in 3Q2009.
• No major office developments were completed in 3Q2009, but the average vacancy rate
edged up from 7.86% in 2Q2009 to 7.93% in 3Q2009.
• Further to the recent signs of stabilisation, the prime office market is expected to see more
solid growth if there is a sustained revival of global demand over the next 12 months.
However, the pace of growth will be capped at 5% during the period unless the bulk of
occupiers once again adopt an expansionary strategy.

ASIA PACIFIC OFFICE MARKET OVERVIEW | OCTOBER | 2009
Jakarta
• Growing signs of recovery in the private sector translated gradually into occupational
demand for offices, as evidenced by the rising number of enquiries in 3Q2009. A number
of multinational companies came with plans either to upgrade to a better-quality building
or to expand their floor area requirements.
• With expectations of a global economic recovery and strengthening market confidence,
asking rentals for a number of quality buildings, particularly those with low vacancy
rates, stayed relatively firm in 3Q2009.
• The majority of new developments scheduled for completion in 2009 are expected to
come onto the market on time, signifying both the commitment of developers and the
growing confidence in the marketplace.
• Due to the increase in new supply in 2009, the prospective vacancy rate is expected to
edge up over the near term. However, the vacancy level will come down again over the
medium term as only two new buildings are scheduled for completion in 2010.
Kuala Lumpur
• Amid the continued improvement in the external economic environment, the local
office sector displayed initial positive signs, despite the challenge of the completion of
500,000 sq ft of new office stock during 3Q2009.
• The pace of recovery of the local office market was enhanced further by the introduction
of various fiscal stimuli and monetary measures. Meanwhile, the initiative to liberalise
the local service sector has been reckoned to be one of the key factors contributing to
the market recovery.
• Despite the large batch of new supply scheduled to come on line before the end of
2010, the prime area will be resilient. However, a cautious market might lead to slower
absorption rates over the near term. With the continued relocation by a number of
multinational corporations, rental rates and occupancy rates in prime areas edged down
mildly in 3Q2009.
• Capital values of prime office buildings declined marginally in 3Q2009 and are expected
to stabilise over the short term.

• Thanks to the recent economic rebound and the recovery of the financial services sector,
the pace of office rental decline in the Central Business District (CBD) narrowed to
6.4% q-o-q in 3Q2009 compared with the double-digit decline registered in 2Q2009.
The average gross office rental in the CBD was S$6.31 per sq ft as of 3Q2009.
• More companies took advantage of cheaper rentals to expand their f loor area
requirements and upgrade to better quality space in 3Q2009. For example, AIG relocated
its operations from two adjacent buildings on Martin Road on the fringes of the CBD to
five floors at 78 Shenton South Tower, a newly completed office building in the CBD.
Meanwhile, Servcorp committed to one floor at the soon-to-be completed Marina Bay
Financial Centre (Phase One) in the CBD for a period of seven years.
• The average occupancy rates of prime office space in the CBD fell 2.1 percentage points
to 92.2% as of 3Q2009 due to the completion of a number of new buildings, including
Mapletree Anson and 71 Robinson during the period.
• In anticipation of sustained demand weakness and growing new supply, rentals will see
a further downslide of about 5% in 4Q2009.

• The average office rental in the CBD came down by 4%-5% quarter on quarter (q-o-q)
in 3Q2009, with premium grade office buildings continuing to lead the overall decline
during the period.
• With a supply glut in the marketplace and the sustained weakness in demand
fundamentals, the office sector remained a tenant’s market, with a continued rise in
the vacancy rate across the board.
• After the downward adjustment of rentals, office capital values in the Makati CBD fell
further to less that P92,000 per sq m as of 3Q2009.

Bangkok
• No major new office developments were completed in 3Q2009 but the current demand
fundamental remained weak during the period.
• Most vendors cut their rental rates by 5%-10% during lease renewals in an attempt to
keep their premises occupied during 3Q2009. Fit-out costs remained the key factor
preventing tenants from relocating to other premises.
• The overall take-up was slower than expected during 3Q2009 as individual tenants
reduced their floor area requirements, putting upward pressure on the vacancy rate.
• There have been no major relocations since the beginning of 2009. The current trend
is expected to continue over the remaining months of 2009. The prevailing political
uncertainty and disputes about environmental issues continue to dampen the local real
estate investment market.

• The demand for IT/ITES space continued to remain muted in 3Q2009. However,
the availability of IT/ITES stock for lease, representing more than 95% of the total
available space, remained relatively high. However, non-IT space was quite limited in
the marketplace.
• There was an increase in the level of enquiries attributed to those IT companies based
in STPIs, but which have been looking to relocate to SEZs during 3Q2009.
• Office rentals for non-IT space remained stable in 3Q2009. The trend was similar to
the IT/ITES space in all micro-markets except OMR during the period.
• The Tamil Nadu government is planning to set up a financial city near Chennai through
a public/private partnership. The proposed scheme is expected to attract tenants engaged
in the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance sectors, including mutual funds and
stockbrokers.

Mumbai
• Bucking the downward trend in the first half of 2009, prime office rentals for most
micro-markets started stabilising in 3Q2009. The overall office market also saw an
improvement in the volume of transactions during the period.
• Due to the improved market liquidity, the continued debt restructuring among key
developers and the encouraging performance of the equity market, more solid signs of
real estate market recovery emerged in 3Q2009.
• Market confidence strengthened, as evidenced by the rising level of enquiries during
3Q2009. However, individual investors remained cautious due to which the conversion
rate was low.
• In order to boost the city’s infrastructure, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development
Authority awarded the contract for the Mumbai Metro II project - the 32-km elevated
rail line between Charkop and Mankhurd - to Reliance Infrastructure, a consortium led
by the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group. The first phase of the Metro Project is expected
to be completed by 2010-11.

ASIA PACIFIC OFFICE MARKET OVERVIEW | OCTOBER | 2009
Perth
• Perth experienced a significant increase in vacancy levels from 1.3% in January 2009
to 8% in July 2009 due to softening demand amid an increase in supply. Office rentals
came under downward pressure as the level of incentives increased to 10%-20% during
3Q2009.
• On a positive note, a number of sub-lease spaces were taken back from the market due
to the improved business performance and expectations of a future increase in floor
area requirements.
• Given the growing market confidence and the projection of a sustained economic
recovery, demand for office space is expected to strengthen over the medium to long
term.
• The volume of investment transactions was subdued in the first half of 2009 as local
institutional players continued to stay on the sidelines. Buying activity continued to be
dominated by overseas players and cash-rich private investors.
Melbourne
• According to the Property Council of Australia’s July 2009 Office Market Report, the
average office vacancy rate increased mildly to 4.8% as of 3Q2009.
• A total of 168,700 sq m of new office space, currently under construction, is expected
to come on line over the next six months in the Melbourne CBD and Docklands.
• The average net office rental stabilised across the board in 3Q2009. However, it is our
view that prospective rental growth will be limited as competition remains keen among
landlords.
• A total of nine major investment sales with lump sum price of AU$10 million or above
each were transacted year to date, with a total consideration of AU$511 million.
• Office investment yields softened 75 basis points across the board during 2Q and
3Q2009. The Grade A sector softened by about 100 basis points to 7.75%-8.50% as of
3Q2009.

Sydney
• Office vacancy rates increased from 5.4% in January 2009 to 7.7% July 2009. It is
predicted to rise to 9.0% by January 2010 and then to peak by mid-2011.
• Face office rents were stable in 3Q2009. Incentive levels stabilised at about 25%-30% - an
increase of 15 percentage points on average across the board since its peak in September
2008.
• A total of about 110,000 sq m of new supply will be coming on line in 2010. Vacancy
rates are projected to edge up in anticipation of a slow economic recovery and a further
rise in unemployment rate. Rentals will see further downward pressure in 2010.
• Looking into 2011 and 2012, new developments due for completion during the period
have been largely pre-committed.

Auckland
• Occupational demand remained soft in 3Q2009 and few tenants moved in the CBD. New deals were scarce as the majority of tenants preferred to renew their leases rather than to relocate elsewhere. For example, the AMP NZ Office Trust renewed eight of its major leases for another term for a combined area of 23,000 sq m in both Auckland and Wellington.
• Office vacancy rates continued to edge up in 3Q2009. The average rate in the CBD was 8.4% compared with 5.4% registered in prime buildings as of June 2009.
• Investment yields eased 100 to 150 basis points over the past six quarters. Prime yields in the CBD precincts ranged between 8% and 9%. One of the major office transactions registered in 3Q2009 was the sale of Forsyth Barr Tower at 55-56 Shortland Street to Robt. Jones Holdings for a total consideration of NZ$41.5 million.
• A total of about 59,000 sq m of new office space is scheduled for completion before the end of 2009 and over 70% of the space has been pre-committed. However, occupational demand for office space is expected to remain subdued in 2009. Prime grade office rents will continue to fall, although prime yields should remain static over the remainder of 2009.
Wellington
• Despite the challenge of the recessionary threat, quality office space remained in demand during 3Q2009. Prime office gross rents in the CBD stabilised at NZ$560 per sq m at the high end during 3Q2009.
• Lease renewals continued to be the most favoured option for most tenants. Without a significant increase in new demand, the average vacancy rate increased from 5% in 4Q2008 to 6% in 2Q2009.
• Investment yields hovered between 7.5% and 8.5% as of 3Q2009. AMP Capital Investors sold its 9,110 sq m office building at the corner of Hunter Street and Customhouse Quay for NZ$29.6 million, representing a yield of 8.66% per annum.
• A total of 114,000 sq m of new office space is projected to come onto the market between 2009 and 2011. The market will see a further rise in vacancy rates, but investment yields are expected to stabilise over the remainder of 2009.
