    “THIS year is going to be a good year,” said PropNex executive chairman and chief executive officer Ismail Gafoor, right at the start of his interview with The Business Times.

    The real estate agency is bullish about its prospects this year, on the back of a Singapore property market that holds much promise.

    Gafoor’s upbeat sentiment comes as PropNex celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. And the mainboard-listed company is open to dishing out a special dividend to commemorate the occasion.
