The Board of Directors has not recommended the payment of a final dividend for the year ended December 31, 2023.

In 2023, we achieved a solid set of results which reflect a period of persistent recovery for the Group. Following several years of global travel restrictions, the international travel and tourism sector has experienced a gradual return to pre-pandemic travel patterns in the past year. This development continued to stand PCPD in good stead.

Park Hyatt Niseko, Hanazono, our hotel operations in Hokkaido, delivered an excellent performance in 2023, as Japan saw a sharp rise in inbound tourists during the year, which was Park Hyatt Niseko's first full year of operation since the country lifted COVID-related travel restrictions on foreign tourists. In 2023, recreational facilities at Niseko Hanazono Resort also recorded a significant increase in the number of visitors and users compared to that of last year.

In Jakarta, Indonesia, the occupancy of our premium commercial building, Pacific Century Place, Jakarta ("PCP Jakarta"), remained stable throughout the year. At the end of December 31, 2023, the office space occupancy was 83%, compared to 81% the previous year.

In Thailand, foreign tourist arrivals continued to increase, which helped drive up revenue for the Group's golf clubhouse and 18-hole golf course in Phang Nga.

Piling work for our property development project at 3–6 Glenealy, Central has been progressing well.

We are cautiously optimistic about the property sectors in Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand and Indonesia in the long run. We will formulate our cost and revenue strategies in preparation for unforeseen situations and also to enhance our business performance.

Mr. Benjamin Lam, PCPD's Deputy Chairman and Group Managing Director, said: "Globally, 2024 will present different challenges, although there will also be opportunities in the Asia-Pacific region. We will monitor closely changes in the market while remaining agile in the way we deploy our resources, with a view to optimising our performance and delivering returns."
