                  Please tell us why the most significant fair value increases

          fair value for all periods presented is due to a change in the
peso/USD exchange rate
          versus other factors (i.e. changes in discount rates).
          In your MD&A you indicate that changes in the peso/USD exchange rates
were a
          significant cause for the changes in fair value of your investment
properties. As such,
          please clarify why your office and other properties did not
experience a rate of
          increase in value similar to the increase experienced in your
shopping mall properties.
          Please address the impact that translation of your projected cash
flows to US dollars
          and then back, for purposes of the discounted cash flows analysis,
has on your
          valuation.
          Please tell us what US dollar-denominated long-term interest rate is
utilized in your
          calculation, and please provide an analysis of the year-over-year
differences in this
          discount rate, the reasons for these changes, and the impact on your
calculation.
          Finally, please expand your disclosure in future filings to more
fully describe your
          valuation methodology, including:
              o Your policy of translating peso denominated cash flow estimates
into USD for
                  purposes of performing your discounted cash flow analysis and
the rationale
                  for this policy.
              o An indication of which assumptions are applied to peso
denominated cash
                  flow estimates and which assumptions are applied to USD
denominated cash
                  flow estimates.
