infrastructure & facilities upgrading

We believe in continually developing thepotential of our assets, includinginfrastructure. It is a major obligation for aprivate college operator like SEGi to meetits students' need for upgraded, fully-equipped learning environments whichfunction effectively while displayingcontemporary aesthetics and architecturalsoundness.

Hence, in 2003 we announced plans tobuild a flagship urban campus, and toposition it as a central landmark for privatetertiary education in the Klang Valley.

The Group acquired a 10-acre land in KotaDamansara from the Selangor DevelopmentCorporation for RM15million. Located within the Selangor Science Park, theconstruction will cost an estimated RM60million and the campus will becomeoperational in three years.

Conceptually, the architecture design andlandscaping is a blend of Victorian andcolonial elements. Facilities include hostelsfor outstation and international students, anOlympic-size swimming pool, auditorium, asports complex and other recreationalfacilities. The campus will house a state-of-the-art administration block, flanked by two

purpose-built academic buildings, cateringfor the specific study needs of its expectedstudent population of 12,000.

Another building will be dedicated toContinuing Education, providing adultlearners with a dynamic and unique wirelessenvironment for advanced e-learning, usingInternet-enabled systems.

SEGi Centres that underwent upgrading offacilities in the past year include SystematicKuala Lumpur, Systematic Petaling Jaya,Systematic Penang, Systematic Johor Bharu,Systematic Klang and PRIME Training &Development Centre, Alor Setar.

The recent acquisition of a 12-storeybuilding located adjacent to SEGi'scorporate office at UEP Subang Jaya is a part of our strategic

plans to upgrade and refurbish existinginfrastructures into stand-alone campuses.

The task in the 18 months ahead will becentred on transforming the RM15millionbuilding, with furnishment allocationtotalling another RM15million. Thecompleted new campus will accommodate6,500 students, and this will enable SEGi toenjoy a larger slice of the higher educationmarket including part time, adult learningand training sectors.

PRIME College USJ's current campus will be relocated to the new premise, andstudents will continue to have access tosuperb urban and recreational facilities such as shopping complexes, a sports field, as well as a nearby sports complex which houses aswimming pool, gymnasium, squash and badminton courts.

Through the Systematic Group and PRIME Group of Colleges,SEGi has built an enviable portfolio of delivering academicexcellence in the country.

We are also not ignoring the need for further education amongstthe overseas student market. In maximising our local and foreignalliances and resources, SEGi hopes to explore more businessopportunities in this sector.

Besides helping to boost our revenue, joint ventures andcollaborative partnerships with other leading institutions of higher learning will provide opportunities for international students to graduate with highly-sought after degrees, qualifications and awards, as they would have access to SEGi's university partners in UK and Australia.

Foreign collaborations are now in place in China, for example, tomarket and deliver over 100 academic programmes to China students. This arrangement gains them recognised Bachelor andMasters qualifications from prestigious UK and Australianuniversities, without them having to leave their homeland.

Our joint partners have access to SEGi's range of courses andprogrammes, software as well as technical expertise, while they provide the infrastructure and delivery systems (administrative,hardware and local operations) for their local students.

In the next two years, SEGi is expecting up to 15 foreignpartnerships in China alone, and the royalty payments from thesewill generate income for us of between 10% to 20% of ouroverall revenue.

In looking beyond our shores, SEGi will be able to cull the intrinsicbenefits of valuable and dynamic relationships with overseaspartners. We believe adopting a win-win strategy through smartpartnerships will bring mutual benefits and prosperity to both.
