Yes, contrarian, out of the total, 3.9 billion refers to the gaming right.

Money from Vietnam hotel spent on Iceland, bjtoto and japan.... Kyoto four season, who knows whether there's a disposal at all...

VT offers so many broken promises, while hoping its true this time, its difficult to judge and surely buying/selling on what's 'said' is pretty much equivalent to gambling, sigh!

Kyoto Four Season is 50% BJCorp 50% BJLand. The project is initially owned by BJLand and have its 50% sold to BJCorp...

my guess, CEO said no dividend so price drop...

Err... I was wondering if the Fri news is more about VT selling bjland shares instead of buying, is it possible?

I'm kind of hoping for a special 0.10 special dividend and an exchange to bjcorp shares at 0.38/0.30 ratio... a dream too hard to fulfill, I guess.

Err... so, does that mean privatization soon?

just know one thing, if we don't sell and keep adding some while someone keep selling in an attempt to 'buy cheap', it will stop once knowing there's nothing to buy except selling cheaply. More worrisome is when the listed entity is producing garbage and not deliver what's pledged. Worst is when SC and Bursa keeping an eye closed when the listed entity is throwing garbage at its minorities...

if some party/fund just want to exit the stock, then, good luck to us all minorities. Unless there's another buyer of similar size, there's basically no support. Luckily, BJLand has less than 1 billion shares that's freely floated. Just my thoughts...

err... if he said gugu chopped already, will you believe?

without the money from Kyoto four season or jeju settlement, I doubt BJCorp has the capacity to pay 0.80 per share to privatize. VT has failed to honor promises with the latest being Kyoto Four Season sale around February...

Err.... won't be much actually, bjcorp is owning an additional 10% worth slightly over 350 million at best. To privatize bjland, bjcorp will need much more than that, unless it's cash + shares deal.

Err... could this be possible? BJLand MGO for bjcorp's toto shares and with money from toto deal, bjcorp privatize bjland?

http://www.bursamalaysia.com/market/listed-companies/company-announcements/6138397

1 22 Apr 2019 4,000,000 Acquired Direct Interest

The company that was sold has an equity valued at 222 million but debt to BJLand's group of companies at roughly 300 million. So, the total payment made to BJLand is 500+ million.

stahl2017, the sale was announced on Dec 28, 2018, BJLand was closed at 0.205 that day and jumped to 0.225 the next day. Now, BJLand is back to 0.205 despite the update suggesting most of the payment has been made, to the amount of RM 520 million. That's why there's no impact.

Even good news can't make an impact of BJLand share price, sigh!

DISPOSAL OF THE ENTIRE 75% STAKE IN T.P.C NGHI TAM VILLAGE LTD (“DISPOSAL”)

We refer to the announcements dated 28 December 2018 and 1 March 2019 on the Disposal for a cash consideration of VND1,244.59 billion (about RM222.18 million or USD53.37 million) and settlement of the amount owing by TPC Village of VND1,670.41 billion (about RM298.20 million or about USD71.63 million), totaling VND2,915 billion (about RM520.38 million or about USD125 million) (“Total Payment Receivable”).

This Announcement is dated 13 May 2019.

markmark, you can write to Lydia at media@berjaya.com.my. Usually she would reply within a few days.

Well, recent penta acquisition gives me a strong impression bursa and SC are letting bjcorp squeezed bjland minorities with no mercy...

ngchengwah, if you are concerned over the deal, you should write in to SC seeking update on the complaint. Sslee has already posted his case here.

best not touch until 'firm' announcement, could be a VT trap!

If the 'confirmed' news not BJLand announcement through Bursa, it could be fake news.

err... no good news with overall market lackluster, how to bull?

sailang, well, I am not going to sell whenever my trust of the man in charge has dropped to zero. I will just trade and invest carefully, learning from past mistakes and avoid making the same again.

When VT showed up during last AGM, I gave him a 6 out of 10 trustworthiness level. After his conference call last Dec about his 'big plan' NOT confirmed by his board, his trustworthiness dropped to 4. After Penta deal without a similar offer to minorities, trustworthiness dropped to 2. With a okinawa four season project before Kyoto four season disposal, to me, he just can't be trusted, AT ALL...

I'm wondering if its Sslee's emails to Bursa and SC that have stopped the bullying on BJLand minority shareholders?

whether BJCorp can privatize BJLand with 0.38:0.30 exchange ratio is one thing. It's another thing if the offer is made ONLY to certain party but not others when the shareholding spread is so low!

SC can, if they want to, make MGO compulsory with a minimum 0.38:0.30 exchange ratio after reviewing the Penta deal. Unfortunately though, I have reservation over SC independence.

Guess that's how Malaysia equity market screw up minorities?

Sslee, thanks for your efforts. Despite my poor encounter with SC earlier, I still think it's the ONLY who's more willing to exercise what's right compared to other agencies. Genuine hope you would make a difference this time. Personally, I would fight along anyone seeking bjcorp, within a stipulated time frame (preferably 6 months), to make an offer that would include an option of exchanging bjland shares into bjcorp shares at 0.38:0.30 ratio as was offered to penta earlier.

Sslee, you should write to SC

Also means'a lot' queue to sell at .27

I have put in a lot of effort seeking minorities' rights on Puncak Niaga a few years back. It's a great experience with a lot of wasted time resulting in ZERO benefit for minorities. Any effort by any of you, genuinely hope that you would achieve something.

If Kyoto Four Season disposal is what VT claimed and announced, BJCorp and BJLand share price will see significant gain. VT had made too many garbage, there simply isn't any trust in him thus far... my personal view

If Kyoto Four Season disposal is what VT claimed and announced, BJCorp share price will see significant gain. VT had made too many garbage, there simply isn't any trust in him thus far... my personal view

VT is buying, probably that's why Bursa and SC keeping an eye closed? Frankly, I am not from the financial industry with 0 contact and can only guess through the announcements...

there is a possibility penta is the one selling in the market and VT is abetting this selling through BJCorp buying penta's stake in BJLand to below 5% while Bursa and SC failed (or silently agreeing to this sinful act) to defend retail investors interest. I have mentioned about this possibility earlier and suggested all not to buy further until there's a clarity through BJLand's announcement.

Of course, its only my guess. Meanwhile, there is no doubt at price below 0.22 or 0.215, BJLand is dirt cheap if whatever VT said is true, i.e., selling Kyoto Four Season and privatizing BJLand. Unfortunately, there is no clarity and VT is already classified under 0 trustworthiness (at least to me).

Unless you know when VT will announce the Kyoto four season deal or any other major deals that can boost share prices, it would be stupid to sell now. There's no catalyst to buy or sell more now, unless you are trading short term...

gangnum, sure hope BJLand and BJCorp share price can shoot up, cause I am invested in both. Though, with no news on Kyto Four Season, the 'an additional' asset in Vietnam awaiting disposal with no details provided, clueless China project disposal claim, its hard for share price to reflect. It can be days, weeks, months, or years. VT just broke the trust throwing shit Dec last year. I was still hopeful around Feb and just gotten more and more suspicious about his true agenda... I am still holding believing the disposals can be meaningful but genuinely doubt it will be completed 'soon'...

Just trying to provide a contrarian view given your price is right or shortinvestor's time is running short.

with VT 'announcing' Kyoto Four Season sale that went silent and ended up with Okinawa Four Season project, its difficult to believe there's any serious investor interested in this company anymore...

Actually, the condition is vaguely written if I were not wrong. An 'or' condition is the trading volume. If the trading volume is satisfactory when the spread is low, bursa may accept the listing status...

Sure hope you are right, just dare not add more shares myself seeing no news correction...

There's a possibility one fund want to sell. Penta, together with bjcorp, is facilitating that service. Why else not converting all, only enough not to appear as shareholders holding more than 5%? Converting all require bjcorp to make offer to the rest of bjland shareholders. Not converting, every time penta is selling requires announcement... again, my guess after seeing the correction... 事后诸葛亮

My guess, there's a possibility penta is selling...

I traced back to Jan 19. Percentage-wise, VT's ownership was 48% despite number of shares is 100 million less. With VT accumulating more lately, his ownership in percentage is roughly the same. Penta's conversion added some 200 million shares in the market.
