DESCRIPTION
With the slow recovery in the global economy driven by the continued risks emanating from the Eurozone and the US, GDP growth in a number of Asian economies registered a slower than expected performance in 1Q 2013. Singapore’s GDP contracted 0.6% year-on-year (YoY), the first decline over the past three years. China unexpectedly lost its momentum in 1Q 2013 with growth falling short of the original forecast of 8% to a recorded increase of 7.7% YoY. This slowdown occurred despite the government’s commitment to massive infrastructure spending and the sustained growth in private consumption. Looking ahead, individual governments in the region are expected to introduce additional stimulus measures to improve the pace of economic growth. In the leasing market, corporate tenants will remain largely cost-conscious over the near term until there are more concrete signs of recovery in global demand, perhaps in the latter half of 2013. Given the low interest rate environment, the overall sales market is expected to remain dominated by cash-rich occupiers who are motivated to consider buying for long-term own-use.TRANSCRIPT

regiOnal Overview
ecoNomic overviewWith the slow recovery in the global economy driven by the continued risks emanating from the Eurozone and the US, GDP growth in a number of Asian economies registered a slower than expected performance in 1Q 2013. Singapore’s GDP contracted 0.6% year-on-year (YoY), the first decline over the past three years. China unexpectedly lost its momentum in 1Q 2013 with growth falling short of the original forecast of 8% to a recorded increase of 7.7% YoY. This slowdown occurred despite the government’s commitment to massive infrastructure spending and the sustained growth in private consumption.
leAsiNgMore than half of the leasing inquiries received in 1Q 2013 involved expansionary requirements from companies and, as a result, average rents in the region increased mildly by 0.9% QoQ in 1Q 2013. Although expansion requirements were seen regionally, most multinational corporations maintained a cautious outlook on the external environment and remained largely cost-conscious in regard to real estate spending. Many firms continue to pursue cost reduction real estate strategies with focus on shifting to lower cost decentralised locations, thus putting a cap on rental growth in core locations. However there were stand-out markets such as Jakarta and Manila where economic growth has been running above the three-year historical average. With low office vacancy rates and limited new supply in the pipeline, rental growth was recorded at over 7% QoQ during the quarter.
sAles mArketOn the sales front, buying interest from individual investors has been dampened by various government cooling measures such as the increases in real estate stamp duties in Singapore and Hong Kong, introduced in 1Q 2013. However, cash-rich occupiers, in particular insurance companies, became active in the sales market in order to avoid the risk of rental volatility. This trend was demonstrated with key purchases in Hong Kong and Korea. In China, domestic end-users in Beijing remained active in sourcing deals while overseas institutional investors and local players in Shanghai continued to dominate the whole-block sales market.
mArket outlookLooking ahead, individual governments in the region are expected to introduce additional stimulus measures to improve the pace of economic growth. In the leasing market, corporate tenants will remain largely cost-conscious over the near term until there are more concrete signs of recovery in global demand, perhaps in the latter half of 2013. Given the low interest rate environment, the overall sales market is expected to remain dominated by cash-rich occupiers who are motivated to consider buying for long-term own-use.

cHiNABeijing• A new Grade A office project of 37,800 sq m was completed in 1Q 2013. An existing
project situated in the East 2nd Ring sub-market was added back to the market due to the transition from an owner-occupancy to a partial leasing strategy.
• Demand for Grade A office properties remained largely stable during 1Q 2013, on the back of a mild upturn in economic growth, with enquiries and leasing transactions for quality office space recovering moderately. Correspondingly, the overall vacancy rate edged down by 0.2 percentage points QoQ to 4.8%, as of the end of 1Q 2013.
• Rentals increased 0.4% QoQ to RMB327.9 per sq m per month by end of 1Q 2013. However, in a bid to retain satisfactory occupancy rates, some landlords were more flexible in their pricing, leading the average rents in the East Chang An Avenue, Lufthansa and East 2nd Ring sub-markets to decline by 3.0% QoQ, 1.9% QoQ and 0.9% QoQ, respectively.
• The office investment market was active in 1Q 2013, with many domestic end-users demonstrating strong interest in sourcing deals. One en bloc sales transaction was disclosed during this quarter. Shandong Luneng Group Co. Ltd, a domestic corporation, acquired Bogong International Centre in the central business district (CBD), for a total consideration of RMB1.39 billion.

CHengDU• Chengdu’s Grade A office market database has been adjusted to the latest Office Grading
Guideline. Until 1Q 2013, the total Grade A office stock amounted to 780,175 sq m. Average rent increased by 0.94% QoQ, to RMB128.91 per sq m per month, while the vacancy rate went up slightly by 0.2% QoQ.
• In this quarter The Atrium office building, with 37,858 sq m of space, entered the office market bringing Grade A office stock in the Financial Street area to 220,599 sq m. The average rent increased by 6.18% QoQ, to RMB119.56 per sq m per month, while the vacancy rate in this area stood at 53.39%, an increase of 2.97% QoQ.
• The new office buildings with high-quality hardware and construction attracted many tenants. As a result, vacancy rate for the overall Grade A office market increased by only 0.2% QoQ in 1Q 2013, even though there was a new project entering the market at the same time. On the other hand, the pressure of rising rents will increase as homogeneous competition in the Grade A office market intensifies in 2013.
gUAngzHoU• The average vacancy rate for Guangzhou’s Grade A office market decreased 2.4% QoQ
to 21.9% in 1Q 2013, as no new supply entered the market.
• Office rents rebounded to RMB156.9 per sq m per month in 1Q 2013.
• Guangzhou’s Grade A office prices staged a stable performance, averaging RMB31,107 per sq m during 1Q 2013.

tokyo• New supply in 2013 will be the lowest since 2008.
• Rents bottoming, significant incentives continue.
• Vacancy rates continue to be range bound with some qualitative decline.
• Business confidence and government stimulus may impact demand positively.
• Macro-economic indicators turning positive, land prices stabilising.
• Tenant-friendly market conditions continue, but near-term further weakening unlikely.
HoNg koNgHong kong• Overall Grade A office rents increased slightly by 0.4% QoQ in 1Q 2013. However rents
in Central fell by 1.2% QoQ during the same period, as individual landlords of top-tier buildings reduced their asking rents in anticipation of a potential increase in backfill space once major anchors decided to relocate.
• Most tenants chose to renew their leases in 1Q 2013, as very few other real estate leasing options were available.
• Buying interest remained strong among investors and end-users in 1Q 2013. For example, Hang Seng Bank acquired the en bloc at 113 Argyle Street in Mong Kok for about HK$3 billion for its own occupation and investment purposes, representing an estimated market yield of 3.4%.
• On the leasing front, office rents in Central are expected to grow more strongly in the order of 8% than overall Grade A office rents (7%) in the coming 12 months, as the rental premium for top-tier buildings is expected to increase, due to growing occupational demand among small-to-medium-size financial tenants willing to pay the premium.

kUAlA lUmpUr• There were no new completions during the review period in Central Kuala Lumpur. The
only prime office development which is expected to be completed by the end of this year is Menara Hap Seng 2, contributing 509,000 sq ft of net lettable area to the existing supply.
• As the new office space completed in 2012 was gradually absorbed, the vacancy rate decreased to 7.5% in 1Q 2013 from 13.9% in the previous quarter.
• Older buildings are being refurbished or demolished to make way for modern buildings. Among these are Tradewinds Corp Bhd demolishing the Crowne Plaza Mutiara Kuala Lumpur and Kompleks Antarabangsa to build the RM6 billion Tradewinds Centre, and the 35-storey Kompleks Dayabumi undergoing upgrades worth RM900 million in a conversion to a high-rise office and residential tower.

PHil iPPiNesmAnilA• In 1Q 2013, the overall vacancy rate in all of the sub-markets in Metro Manila dropped
to the 3% level, mainly driven by the strong expansion demand from the outsourcing & off-shoring industry. In the Makati CBD, premium vacancy declined to 3.48% QoQ and will remain below the 4% level over the next twelve months.
• The vacancy rate in the Makati CBD will remain low in the long term as the supply for new office space remains limited. Only one new office building is expected to be completed this year - Alphaland Makati Tower (38,400 sq m). Meanwhile, V-Corporate Center (23,000 sq m) is targeted to be completed in 2014.
• As landlords gained more pricing power resulting from the relatively low vacancy rate, rents in Makati CBD increased substantially by 8.7% QoQ to almost P840.00 per sq m per month. The rental rate will eventually exceed the P900 per sq m level by the end of the year.

MANILA OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE
SingApore• Leasing momentum in the CBD stayed relatively muted in 1Q 2013, dominated by renewal
deals and tenants’ flight to quality.
• The average occupancy rate for Premium Grade office space in the Raffles Place / New Downtown micro-market increased from 88.5% in 4Q 2012 to 90.2% in 1Q 2013, although the average occupancy rate for Grade A office space in the wider CBD slipped from 94.5 to 93.6% over the same period.
• The average monthly gross rents for CBD Premium and Grade A office space continued to ease by another 0.7% QoQ in 1Q 2013 to reach S$8.41 per sq ft as of March 2013.
• Weighed down by downside risks on the global economic front, CBD office rents are expected to stay on a downtrend in 2013, but improving local market fundamentals could cap the fall in office rents to less than 5% for the whole year.

BANGKOK OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE
BAngkok• Overall, Bangkok office market rental rates increased in 2012 and are expected to continue
to rise in 2013, especially in the CBD.
• The limited availability of land at reasonable prices in the CBD area is the major obstacle for office building development. Therefore, most of the new office supply is located outside the CBD area.
• New international companies are entering the Thailand market, while many existing companies are expanding or planning to expand their offices.
• The prospects under the Asean Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 and the opening up of Myanmar will increase demand for office buildings in Bangkok as Thailand is seen as an increasingly important regional centre for companies with operations in the sub-region, i.e. Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia.

HO CHI MINH CITY OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE
Ho CHi minH City• Due to a number of delayed projects and continued difficulty in accessing financing,
there will not be any major increases in supply during 2013 or 2014. Current movement in investments from international enterprises should push growth in the long term.
• The lack of new supply should keep rents relatively stable. However, rental rates are expected to slide slightly more in 2013 before increasing again in 2014 as the market faces pressure from increasing demand and no major new supply until 2015.
• The lack of new supply in coming years is expected to lower vacancy rates to below 10% in the Premium Grade sector over the next two years.
• Future development of Premium Grade office projects will continue to be centred in the CBD (District 1).
asia pacific office market overview | 1Q 2013
colliers iNterNAtioNAl | P. 11
HAnoi• An increasing proportion of new supply over the coming years will be coming from
large-scale projects being developed outside the CBD, particularly in Cau Giay and Tu Liam districts.
• The lower rental rates in the non-CBD projects will continue to drive average rental rates down across the city, as the projects compete with CBD projects for large-scale tenants.
• As the economy is still recovering from the slowdown of previous years, it is expected that demand and take-up will remain at lower levels despite the increased supply. Meanwhile, vacancy levels are expected to increase in the coming years.

BENGALURU OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE
BengAlUrU (BAngAlore)• In 1Q 2013, absorption improved in the IT/ITeS sector, the traditional driver of office
demand in the city. More than 2.5 million sq ft of Grade A office space was absorbed during the quarter. Most of the demand was generated by small and medium enterprises in the IT/ITeS sector, in micro-markets such as Whitefield, Electronic City and ORR.
• During 1Q 2013, construction activities in Bengaluru remained active, resulting in numerous completions. More than 1.5 million sq ft of Grade A office space was added to the city’s total inventory.
• Rental values for Grade A properties remained stable across all the sub-markets due to a supply and demand equilibrium.
• There will be limited new supply in the near- to medium-term. Developers are refraining from speculative development due to the uncertainty in the future performance of the IT/ITeS sector, and price competition from alternative locations like Pune and Hyderabad. Short- to medium-term rents are anticipated to remain stable.

CHENNAI OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE
CHennAi• In 1Q 2013, the city witnessed moderate leasing activities, with demand mostly driven
by IT/ITeS occupants in the Special Economic Zones (SEZs). The total office space absorption was recorded at around 1 million sq ft.
• The city has not witnessed any major completions in 1Q 2013. Developers have adopted a cautious approach due to high vacancy levels, and have slowed the pace of their construction works.
• During the surveyed quarter, no major movement of capital and rental values were recorded, hence both remained stable across all micro-markets.
• A moderate level of absorption momentum is expected in the coming quarters. With controlled supply in the near future, rentals are expected to remain at current levels in preferred micro-markets such as the CBD, OMR and Guindy. However, there may be some downward pressure in locations outside city areas because of lower demand.

mUmBAi• Healthy leasing activities were observed during 1Q 2013. Office space absorption was
recorded at more than 2 million sq ft. A number of large-sized leases (40,000 – 100,000 sq ft) were signed. BFSI and IT/ITeS were the primary sectors contributing to this demand.
• No major movements in rental values were recorded across the sub-markets, except for a marginal decrease in the range of 1 -3% in areas like Nariman Point and Lower Parel.
• In the medium-term, occupier demand is expected to remain healthy with micro-markets like Andheri, BKC and Lower Parel continuing to be the preferred destination for occupiers, due to the availability of Grade A office space. Overall, rents across the micro-markets are expected to remain unchanged, while rents for premium office space may increase slightly due to limited availability.
kArACHi• The Karachi office market is struggling due to the prevailing uncertainty regarding the
macro-economic levels and the upcoming elections.
• Marhaba Trade Centre is the only office development launched in March 2013 on a sales model basis wherein small sized offices range from 1,800 to 2,200 sq ft.

ADelAiDe• In 4Q 2012, Adelaide recorded its largest commercial office sale in almost a decade
with the sale of 400 King William Street to German group Real I.S. AG for $97.9 million. The building, which sold off-market at a yield of 8.2%, demonstrates the strong appetite from national and offshore investors for prime quality investment assets in Adelaide.
• Due to incoming backfill and new uncommitted supply, the overall CBD vacancy rate is forecast to continue to trend upwards until 4Q 2013.
• Two new buildings will officially come on line in 2013, including the speculatively constructed private development at 70 Franklin Street in February 2013, and Bendigo and Adelaide Bank’s new headquarters at 80 Grenfell Street, due to be completed in November 2013.
• Yields are likely to firm marginally by late 2013 or early 2014, when the vacancy rate starts to rebound and rent growth recovers.

BriSBAne• The Queensland government has adjusted its property stance which has resulted in a
withdrawal from a number of privately owned assets as well as much consolidation and amalgamation in state owned buildings.
• An increase in vacancy over the last six months can be largely attributed to the ample supply of secondary backfill space as well as the initial hand-back of government space.
• Domestic and offshore institutional buyers are expected to dominate the investment landscape, citing potential yield compression and the divergence in total returns compared to secondary assets.
• Sophisticated investors and developers have placed their confidence in market growth as evidenced by the progression of several significant new office developments that could see up to 250,000 sq m of floor space delivered by 2017.

CAnBerrA• Office supply in Canberra will remain tight with no new supply in the CBD area expected
for the next two years.
• Continued demand for quality office space will place downward pressure on Grade A vacancy levels.
• Strong interest is seen from foreign investors chasing after safe investment returns.
• Secondary yields have remained steady, while prime yields have firmed in 1Q 2013.

melBoUrne• The vacancy rate has increased from 5.6% in July 2012 to 6.9% as of January 2013.
• Face rents were reasonably flat over the year to January 2013; however, incentives leapt from an average of 16% in July 2012 to 24% in January. As such, Prime Grade net effective rents decreased by 8.9%.
• Enquiries for office space availability were at 60% of the levels recorded in 2011.
• Even though the slowdown in demand was anticipated and significant levels of additional supply became available, net absorption remained positive over both the first and second halves of 2012.
• After a mere 36,000 sq m of new supply was added to the market in 2011, the total figure for 2012 was about 130,000 sq m after completions of some major new CBD and Docklands buildings.

pertH• Net face rents have generally remained stable in 1Q 2013. However, due to an increase
in vacancy in second half of 2012, landlords increased the incentive offerings which resulted in some contraction in net effective rents during the quarter.
• The market is showing signs of a marginal reversion to a tenants’ market with some softening in effective rents in 1Q 2013.
• Supply in 2013 is minimal and consists mostly of refurbishments; this is likely to keep the vacancy rate relatively stable.
• High net absorption in the past is unlikely to be repeated in the short to medium term.

SyDney• Investment activity and enquiry levels remained strong across the Sydney CBD office
market in 1Q 2013.
• Demand from investors continued to come from new offshore groups looking to get a foothold in the Australian market, as well as domestic institutions who have increased their appetites for acquisitions.
• Overall incentives have continued to increase, while rent growth was slightly higher than the rate of inflation, driven chiefly by rent reviews.
• Lease renewals remained the key driver behind leasing activity with new lease enquiries coming from metropolitan tenants and business firms looking for more affordable accommodation in the CBD area.

Supply Take-up Vacancy Rate
WELLINGTON OFFICE SUPPLY, TAKE-UP & VACANCY RATE
AUCklAnD• Overall, the Auckland CBD vacancy rate stood at 10.6% in 1Q 2013 which is the lowest
recorded in 18 months. Furthermore, this was the third consecutive decline and it was below the two decade average of 13%. The drop is being driven by a historically low prime vacancy rate which is at 7.9% in 1Q 2013.
• Supply constraints remain an issue. The impact of ASB‘s move to Wynyard Quarter is reduced given Auckland Council’s commitment, albeit decisions on Council’s existing space are still to be made. ANZ’s consolidation in their new premises in Albert Street in 2Q 2013, provides some opportunity for tenants with backfill space likely to be refurbished to a high standard. High profile new build market proposals for new office HQs between now and 2016 may provide some relief to CBD supply constraints.
• Correlating with the reduction in prime vacant office space in Auckland is the reduction in incentives and the increase in net effective rents. Over the last year, average prime incentives have decreased and are now just under two months per year of lease term. Rents are forecast to increase steadily over the next five years.
• Prime yields for office buildings are firming, which is in tandem with the projected increase in rents and capital values.

wellington• Demand in Wellington’s CBD office market remains focused on higher quality premises as
a result of business and seismic preference. However, only 5% of the circa 230,000 sq m of vacant office space in Wellington is considered to be prime office space.
• In Wellington, the cautious approach from landlords and tenants led to incentives remaining low and stable. However, our tenant office survey indicates a rising gross rent outlook for tenants due to higher insurance costs.
• Forecasts for the overall performance of the sector remains mixed, given the high proportion of secondary space that will need to be investigated for earthquake resistance. Clarity around strengthening requirements and how it will be conducted remains elusive. This will be positive for the prime sector with demand for the surety of prime space commanding a premium. As a result, prime rents are expected to rise by 2% in 2013.
• Argosy Property Trust announced their purchase of NZ Post House for NZ$60 million. Seismic strengthening is required for the project and is estimated at NZ$40 million. The work is expected to be completed in early 2016 and will not detrimentally affect operations of tenants who will reportedly continue to occupy the building throughout the process. The strong covenant provides a 20-year lease with three-yearly market reviews.
