NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire -05/18/12)- China's internet stocks have posted mixed results recently as government restrictions, high costs, and a shift to mobile devices have made it difficult for companies to tap into the nation's vast online market. It is estimated that only 37.7 percent of China is online according to the China Internet Network Information Center (CINIC). Five Star Equities examines the outlook for companies in China's Internet Sector and provides equity research on SINA Corporation (SINA) and Renren Inc. (RENN).

China currently has more than 500 million internet users. China's internet growth has lagged in recent years, 55.8 million users were still added in 2011, according to the CINIC. Estimates from eMarketer, a digital-marketing research firm, projects that online advertising revenue is projected to grow from $4.6 billion in 2011 to $9.5 billion in 2014. With tight restrictions from the government and growing competition, internet companies have struggled to turn users into reliable sources of revenue.

"A lot of these problems are coming from the fact that most of these firms are still figuring out what the ultimate business model is going to be," said David Wolf, chief executive of Wolf Group Asia. In regards to slowing internet user growth, he added, "It will be about who has the deeper pockets and who is going to be able to evolve their service to keep users. We are looking at more spending before we see more revenue."

KUCHING: Kuala Lumpur-based property developer Suez Domain Sdn Bhd (Suez Domain) is offering the corporate office towers of its upcoming project, KL Gateway, to Sarawakians.

During its roadshow organised by its exclusive marketing partner Borneo Real Estate, Suez Domain general manager of retail, Benjamin Leong, outlined the groups expectations for Sarawakian investors to partake in this project, slated to be completed by 2016.

I believe that the Sarawak market is very discerning, he told The Borneo Post.

Sarawakians are also very strong investment people in terms of investment styles.

We feel that our product will provide them an opportunity to establish some presence in the peninsula, especially in Kuala Lumpur at a very prime location.

Leong added that its packages at the premium floors were very competitive, translating to a beneficial price point and would add to the investors portfolios without hesitation.

He noted that the KL Gateway project held a gross development value of RM1.7 billion spanning over 7.18 acres and consisting of four sections: Corporate Office Towers, Boutique Retail, Serviced Suites and Managed Service Suites.

KL Gateway is located along the Federal Highway and is connected to other major motorways such as the Sprint Highway/Kerinchi Link and the New Pantai Expressway.

The property is envisioned to be a peaceful oasis in the heart of KL with an outdoor courtyard surrounded by a series of garden spaces designed to be a public room that will attract people from the surrounding neighbourhoods.
