Last spring, Sime Darby, a Malaysian conglomerate, announced that it planned to sell noncore assets.

去年春天，马来西亚综合企业森达美(Sime Darby)宣布，计划出售非核心资产。

It was an attempt to generate cash because much of its Rm16bn debt was coming due quite soon.

此举是为了回笼资金，因为该公司总值160亿林吉特的债务即将到期。

Like many other companies in Southeast Asia, Sime Darby had ramped up borrowing in the expectation of better economic times that failed to materialise.

像东南亚其他很多公司一样，森达美此前抱着对经济景气的期待而增加借贷，但结果经济并不景气。

Its debt swelled from Rm10bn in 2017 to Rm18bn in 2017, while net income dropped by 30 per cent, according to Bloomberg data.

据彭博(Bloomberg)的数据显示，该公司的债务水平从2017年的100亿林吉特增加至2017年的180亿林吉特，而在此期间其净利润减少了30%。

Blackstone’s Asian real estate group, which had been hunting for assets in Singapore and other attractive locations, quickly pounced.

一直在新加坡和其他具有吸引力的地方物色资产的黑石(Blackstone)旗下的亚洲房地产集团很快下手，

It bought three Sime Darby properties in the city state: two malls and a car showroom.

收购了森达美在这座城市国家的三项资产：两座购物中心和一个汽车展示厅。
