		Afterthought : 
I have a piece of land but I do not have the money to build a mall on the land. I let AAA to build and operate the mall for 30 years.  By the BOT expiry date, if I let AAA to operate the mall again, when do I get my share of profit ? So the chance of renewal must be very low, or AAA will have to pay me very much.

		BOT explains quite clear already. 
Build Operate Transfer. After expiry of BOT, everything should be transferred to the original owner.  Can the BOT be renewed? I am not sure(what does renew even mean? at most O is renewed, T is postponed). The continuation of operating the mall could be a different contract from BOT.
my own interpretation only. please feel free to correct

		We should listen to all but only believe in ourselves. If not, we will never succeed in anything.

 
	
WB:-
1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.
    Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.
NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.

		Isnt it unfair that the reit manager charge a 1% fee for acquisition when it doesnt really benefit shareholders?
