Ha ha....., you look at the daily volume . I think you r too free just to spend your time, Asia88 shall be your example , although he is always at negative side but he will give facts.

Meena project outstanding claim abt 200 mil ( performance bond and guarantee 100 mil ,progressive claim and others 100 mil , Meena arbitration demand 673 mil , Zelan arbitration demand abt 635 mil)
The original comments below was from another forum in discussion with Mike. Just sharing for the benefits of others.
Hi Mike,
I think you had misunderstood my earlier message. I wasn't actually proposing Velesto as a potential investment ( i actually don't think they can make any significant profit anytime soon given the very low charter rate).
The point that i would like to make was that by following EPF transactions blindly without having done the research on the companies might proof to be a very bad investment strategy. It would be better for investors to do the research of the company first before making decision on whether to invest or not in a company.
On Zelan, i think its a pure speculative stock. Based on the public info, it does not seem to have any corporate exercise planned. Appeal of this stock would most probably be purely based on technical.
The company posted a net loss of RM23.6mil in FY18 (refer to 2018 annual report). It would have been worst if not for the reversal of write off of receivables (RM13mil) and sudden high profit from its associate companies (profit jumped from a loss of RM1.1mil in FY17 to RM14.5mil in FY18. Not sure why though). Excluding all of the one off items (i did not exclude the associate result), Zelan core net loss in FY18 actually reaches RM30mil.
However, the biggest issue with the company is its very weak balance sheet. As of Dec 18, the company has a total current liabilities amounting to RM416mil (of which RM 184mil is debt) and only RM101mil in current asset (of which only RM4 mil cash).
This was also highlighted by their auditor, PwC, in the 2018 annual report when it issue a statement of material uncertainty related to the going concern of the group (page 53 of the annual report).
I would advice you to maybe not put all your investment in this one company alone as the risk is actually quite high. In the case that the outcome of the arbitrage award by the Abu Dhabi Court is not to Zelan's advantage, the company will most probably need to impair a big chunk of the RM184mil receivables in its balance sheet. Basically any arbitrage award that is less than the RM184mil would result in an impairment to the receivables.
Given that the shareholder equity of Zelan was RM44.3mil as of Dec 18 or 52.45% of the paid up capital (of RM 84.5mil), any arbitrage award that result in the company having to impair amount that is higher than RM20mil would potentially result in Zelan shareholder equity to fall below 25% of the paid up capital. This is one of the events that could put Zelan under the PN17 list.
Good luck. Hope the arbitration ends well for Zelan.
Commonsense, as said Zhulian and Inari is better choice than mbmr. Zelan is high risk high gain counter, if you have done the research , the borrowing is 540 mil. IIUM will provide recurring income effective this year until concession period . Drawbridge just completed and test run on 2/6 to 17/6 . Suke shall complete on 25/9/19 . This year will be a good year for Zelan. The last hurdle is on arbitration which result deadline by May’19. Looking at the events happening and re recruit of the Head of Legal and become COO whom just confirmed , and AGM is set on 11/6/19, some positive hint.
