Raffles Medical Group loses to GHK Hospital in Aberdeen tender

Winning bid is at HKD1.688b.

According to OCBC Investment Research, Raffles Medical Group (RMG) announced last evening that it was not successful in its tender for the site at Aberdeen Inland Lot No. 458 in Wong Chuk Hang, Hong Kong, for the development of a private hospital.

Here's more:

We note from Hong Kong’s Food and Health Bureau’s announcement that the site was awarded to GHK Hospital Limited, a 60%-owned subsidiary of Parkway HK Holdings, which in turn is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of IHH Healthcare Berhad.

The winning bid for the land premium was HKD1.688b (out of three bids). No details were disclosed about RMG’s bid amount.

Total capex for the project would be ~HKD5b (inclusive of the land cost), according to IHH. This is a second setback for RMG recently, as it had also failed to obtain regulatory approval for its first application for the change of use of its commercial podium at 30 Bideford Road for medical clinics (announced on 17 Oct 2012).

However, RMG has since resubmitted a second application (around Dec 2012) and is currently awaiting a reply from the relevant authorities. It is also exploring a proposed development of an integrated international hospital in Shenzhen, China, via a non-binding Letter of Intent with a subsidiary of China Merchants Group.
