The Clocktower Square complex in Sydney will cost A$72 million and the freehold Harbour Town Centre in Perth, A$205 million, the group said in a statement yesterday.

The acquisition of Clocktower Square in Sydney and Harbour Town Centre in Perth reinforces the organisation's strategy to build a more balanced asset portfolio beyond Singapore and Malaysia.
