HCK Properties may be a new kid on the block, but we are growing fast and the industry as well as the public are starting to take notice. Taken from my FB posting on 28 Nov 2016:

Muhammad Aqil Deraman: Tan Sri, give your regular FB friends a good discount for your property projects. I think we deserve it. Turn it into a media stunt. Imagine the headline.. “Tycoon offers discount to loyal Facebook friends”. Free publicity for your projects!
Raveendran Subramaniam: It has often been said that what man can conceive, he can achieve. And that by no means is mere rhetoric. You have dared to dream, and have taken the first step; there being magic in any beginning. Wishing you well for fruition of your said projects and beyond Tan Sri.
Rodjeanall Tinjan: “It’s the same with our dreams. They’re imagination of remarkable lives and great things not yet created”
-Clement Hii
Definitely, Sir. Remarkably imagination for future lives, must be dreams of today, no dreams humans will perish.
Congratulations. Property market, also like humans emotion, there is little down and up again for another good life. Cheers!

YK Cheah: Loud mouth people are just inborn and sometimes they are just harmless. Unlike some people who speak softly and smile sneakily, but with sharp daggers hidden. Of course these loud mouth people are disgusting when the environs are not appropriate for them to be loud mouth.
Teh Lawrence: By all means, a good product ought to be brought to everyone’s attention- loudly, clearly and convincingly. Over time the quality will speak for itself and company involved. And soon it’s the consumers who will do the talking.
It won’t help f you just wear a particular colour T-shirt & scream nothingness, gets aggressive and then looks pathetic.
Quality , pricing and the delivery of promises – never can get wrong on that. And Tan Sri definitely on this page.
Rod Lim: I tend to disagree. I think there’s a viable niche in being quiet and let your work speak for itself. Create a proposition so powerful that people will seek you out. Not easy but it can be done.

Latha Ravindran: It is heartwarming to know that in pursuit of your dreams you have remained ‘human’ without losing your soul , your humility and virtues. Not many people can do that.
Andrew KH Hoo: The reason most people fail in life is because they give up before they have tried. The fear of failure crippled them and before the real battle begins, the mind was set to accept defeat. We need to try and learn from there as mistakes are the bridge between inexperience and wisdom. Winner never quit and they stay positive even when the cards are down. It doesn’t mean that they don’t have negative thoughts but just that they don’t let those thoughts control their life. They are not afraid of what could go wrong and they are excited about what could go right as long as they stay on course.
Rajah Murugaiah: Tan Sri, all mega and successful achievements started off with big dreams. Martin Luther King had a dream, a dream which many thought was impossible during his time. King had dreams of freedom and equality in a land of slavery and hatred. Many thought he was nuts. But his dream turned out a reality and he joined in the ranks of several American leaders who helped shape modern America. So, it’s not a sin to dream big. I have a dream too…that I will have a successful newspaper of my own.

Krizian Lim: You strike a chord with me again, Tan Sri. I am sure many other readers feel the same. Like you say, “We live in “a working society that promotes materialism.” Many equate success to material possession.
While material possession is what we are seen from outside, the value and the moral that we hold inside are what keep us walk talk and reach high.
“I feel our traditional values have never been more threatened.” Tan Sri, I feel the same too. I see people chasing after money in a way that they once believed it is morally not right.
Parents and formal education play an important role. Children don’t follow what we teach, they learn through what we are. In my opinion, it is true that many youngsters today are neglected and influenced by parents’ own attitude. Formal education emphasizing on conceptual knowledge and give little attention in nurturing the conscience and moral as a human.
What we feed our mind become who we are. These days, we have more junk news and advertisement flying around in the social media promoting the evil or the weak sides of us as human being, ie the greed, the fame and all that. Tan Sri, I thank you to also use the same platform to uplift the thought of many. This is noble. That is the reason why I am here. Cheers!
Wan Shamsudin Wan Yahya: Very true, Tan Sri. The mental model need to be changed..We need to change to a cultured society where respect, truthfulness and integrity plays an important role, ultimately more important then any other role or model…

Tay Cheow Hwang:
A CURIOUS CAT IS A GOOD CAT
We’re to be busybody,
If we want to be somebody,
Prominent in our respective fields,
As we feel the right way to go;
We’re to be busybody,
Or else we’ll be nobody,
Immigrants hidden behind own shields,
As we deal in the bright way to show;
Curiosity doesn’t kill the cat,
And cat doesn’t simply die there,
We’re to be catchy and itchy,
To know where to catch the itch;
Normality doesn’t make you excellent,
And excellence doesn’t simply exist there,
We’re to be adverturous and venturesome,
To know where to venture in adventure.
Chai Moi Moi: Tan Sri, I like your topic about curiosity. Curiosity is the motive to learn, discover and invent new things. It is very interesting to see how little kids learn new things. Kids are very curious about their surrounding. Kids learn new things or experience through curiosity..

Teh Lawrence: My wife is a soup ‘specialist ‘. Told her to write a book on it. Asked what made soup so good? She says it’s just a blending of the simple, whatever that means. Taking it while it’s hot is mandatory.
Have a great weekend dear friends!
KK Aw: It looks like “piping hot soup” is not only a Foochow favorite but that of the other dialects also. Thing is, I distinctly remember my non-Foochow friends telling me how you can drink such a hot soup. I suppose it is all relative.
Emil Lee: Good morning and a fun filled weekend to you Tan Sri Clement. In my opinion nothing beats home cooked food as the the cooking is prepared with the two most important ingredients that is love and passion. Yes restaurant may serve you food with elaborated cooking style but are the two most important ingredients present there? Generally the Chinese would prefer to eat their food warm if not hot coz they believe that they are much tastier in that condition and it is especially more if it is the soup. Whatever it is different people have different eating habbits. Enjoy your food but watch your health. Cheers to everyone, have a fun fill weekend as the feeling of Christmas is in the air.??

Andrew Chan: Yes, we r all but one of a kind ie unique in our own ways as each has his/her individual DNAs. Each has the inborn inherited characteristics both physically n holistically, character-wise aka EQ n IQ. Both can be fully taped n to a big extent expanded to bring forth the best in us. It is for us to know ourselves well n work on our weaknesses while strengthening our strengths further. Cheers n let’s be the best we can be.
Choon Pin Yoong: Not once in my boring existence have I wished to be someone else. Others may think their idols or icons are leading extraordinary lives, but that could be mere perception.
Preferring to be oneself is still more reassuring. The only nag is asking oneself why one hasn’t tried one’s best. Maybe one is easily contented with small achievements.
Everything is personal and subjective. Dining with royalty can be uncomfortably hot under the collar while drinking hot kopi O at the yu char kuei stall with Ah Seng and Botak can be hilarious!
Linda Cheung: Double trouble and let us stay clear of such bad luck. Being who we are is a most logical advice, sir.
