So long ago, I mentioned about share placement among VT,associates, subsidiary company, is dammed wrong. It may incur interest conflicts if not regulatory by authorities.
hotels in demand... cam sell the hotels to pay dividend :)
KUALA LUMPUR (July 25): TA Global Bhd's subsidiary Siam Resorts Company Ltd has inked a deal to acquire the hotel and business of Four Points by Sheraton Bangkok, Sukhumvit 15, for 2.25 billion baht (about RM299.93 million). In a filing to Bursa Malaysia today, TA Global said Siam Resorts had entered the agreement yesterday with Destination Resorts Co Ltd. It said the hotel is located in the city centre of Bangkok and is conveniently located next to the BTS Asok Skytrain and Sukhumvit Metro Station. It added that the hotel is also near numerous local offices and entertainment and retail options at Terminal 21, CentralWorld and Platinum Fashion Mall. The hotel comprises a seven-storey building with two basements and a rooftop located in the middle of Bangkok's Sukhumvit area, said TA Global, adding that the hotel features 268 guestrooms. The group said the acquisition will be funded by internally generated funds (40%) and external borrowings (60%). On the rationale for the purchase, TA Global said it is expected to bring synergistic benefits to the group as it will further enhance its hospitality operations in major cities around the world and increase its existing portfolio of hospitality properties, leveraging the group's experience and competence as owner of hotel properties. At the midday break today, TA Global was flat at 25 sen for a market capitalisation of RM1.33 billion.
If wants to buy cheap, can only wait for forced selling or big shark to sell? Looks like value & long term investors are holding & just biding their time?
good for hotels, good for property and land value, boost tourism also KUALA LUMPUR (July 25): Malaysia restarted the China-linked East Coast Rail Link project on Thursday after downsizing building costs by a third to lighten the government’s debt burden. The rail project, led by China Communications Construction Co and Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd, was canceled a year ago by Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s new government after he balked at the RM65.5 billion (US$16 billion) cost. He revived talks later and in April struck a deal with China to cut it down to RM44 billion. Malaysia hopes “the ECRL will bring economic benefits to the country, not just in construction, but that it would also connect all the railway tracks to the ports,” Transport Minister Anthony Loke said at the project relaunch in the east coast state of Terengganu on Thursday. “Hence the shipping and logistics industry would certainly enjoy more encouraging industry growth.” The rail project is one of several infrastructure projects that Dr Mahathir has sought to revive to help stoke economic growth, after a wave of spending cuts and a corruption crackdown last year following his election victory. For China, the resumption may be a boon for its Belt and Road Initiative, which has seen Asian governments from Myanmar to Maldives reassessing Chinese investments amid concern over sovereignty and large borrowings. The 640-kilometer rail will connect Peninsular Malaysia’s eastern coast, whose economy lags the wealthier western coast, to states near the capital of Kuala Lumpur when completed in 2026. The amended deal increases local contractors participation while realigning certain routes. Malaysia will sign a supplementary agreement soon with Export-Import Bank of China that will see the interest cost of its loan reduced for the East Coast Rail Link project, said Loke. The Exim Bank loan is to finance 85% of the RM44 billion project, he said. The project’s cost had ballooned as construction went underway, with the finance ministry estimating that the price tag could reach as much as RM81 billion. Dr Mahathir said the original cost was inflated and would have been lower if the deal — inked during his predecessor Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s time as part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative — was offered through an open tender.

another boost to the local property market KUALA LUMPUR: Sixteen first-time homebuyers received their documents as participants of the FundMyHome DepositKu scheme yesterday from Housing and Local Government (KPKT) Minister Zuraida Kamaruddin. The scheme, launched in February, is a joint initiative between EdgeProp Sdn Bhd and KPKT. “It (FundMyHome) is a viable and interesting alternative [to conventional financing],” said Zuraida, adding that the platform benefits people from various backgrounds, especially the bottom 40% based on their incomes. “Following the FundMyHome DepositKu scheme’s launch in February, today we are delighted to witness the realisation of fellow Malaysians' dream of finally owning a place they can call their own,” said EdgeProp chairman Datuk Tong Kooi Ong. Tong said FundMyHome does not substitute conventional ways of purchasing a home, but “offers a new and viable alternative to owning a home for those needing it the most”. He added that in a strategic partnership with EdgeProp, Panasonic Malaysia is offering a 30% discount in a special move-in package for FundMyHome DepositKu scheme homebuyers. This package includes a refrigerator, a washing machine, two ceiling fans and a 40-inch television for each home. Homebuyers present at yesterday’s ceremony received rice-cookers and table fans as gifts from Panasonic Malaysia. Under the FundMyHome, prospective homebuyers pay 20% of the total home price and become legal owners of the property. The remaining 80% is financed by institutions, benefiting from regular yields and a share of the property’s upside. The DepositKu scheme is helpful whereby homeowners provide a 20% advance of the total home price under the FundMyHome, and the DepositKu scheme will raise 10%, subject to a maximum value of RM30,000. “This means for a RM300,000 home, buyers need to only raise a 10% downpayment or RM30,000, while the other 10% will be from the DepositKu scheme and the remaining 80% from investors of the FundMyHome platform,” Tong said. Bumiputera buyers, entitled to a 7% discount in property prices, pay a smaller advance. At the end of a five-year period, DepositKu scheme beneficiaries can repay the loan or convert it into a subsidy. Under the FundMyHome, they can sell the property and share the proceeds with co-investors or buy the property by cash or a bank mortgage, or rollover the property on the FundMyHome platform for another five years. At the event, Tong told reporters that the FundMyHome is “agnostic” when working with developers, and in future it would work with more developers to secure more homes for the scheme. So far, 8,000 people have expressed interest in buying homes via the FundMyHome. Zuraida said 16 homeowners had bought homes at the Harmoni Apartment in Eco Majestic, a township in Semenyih developed by Eco World Development Bhd. She added that 300 people have succeeded in owning homes through FundMyHome, with 50 homebuyers having completed the final stage of the required paperwork. The FundMyHome DepositKu scheme is open to first-time Malaysian homebuyers aged 21 to 60, with a household income of under RM10,000 per month.

vt might declare dividend in the coming agm like 2014 wait till coming agm ended . those really in need of money can sell to those who cash rich now :)
Good123, disregarding earlier decline, BJLand has declined CONSISTENTLY since end of 2014 at around 0.85 to current level of 0.17, it's so much different from what GENM is showing!!!
There are vultures waiting for forced selling by weak holders or big shark? Looks like got lower cap of 17 sens for BJLand & upper cap of 26 sens for BJCorp to maintain the conversion ratio should there be delisting/privatisation exercise?
Anyway there should be resolution for some of these court cases EOY from hints given by Mgt. below?

Those statements are posted on the quarterly report. I'm merely posting after seeing a post seeking to learn about the Jeju court result. Personally, I am pissed off by BURSA/SC inaction more than VT's disregard for minorities. Trust is gone not just because entrepreneurs cheat. Regulatory bodies' failure to take the right action has a bigger impact...
Personally I thought bursa shouldn't give bjcorp issued additional bjcorp share to penta if nothing deal done. Unfair to both bjland & bjcorp. Can bring to court.
Although VT will be the main beneficial if to pay dividend, at least minority is getting something back than the company only pay fat salaries & remuneration to some under perform friends & families members...…..hehehe...….
Since promoters from both sides of the coin are here, VT's Vs Minority?
Can somebody answer some questions? # why is there a persistent effort to block the price from rising? irregardless of good news or current Qtr. Profitability or Bursa performance lately? # why is NCBO imposed on BJLand & BJCorp? # why VT moved all profit making Biz under BJLand? i.e. BJSports, HR Owens, Icelandair Hotels etc. where he has most control at 85%? # why the discount ratio between BJLand & BJCorp remains constant irregardless of their price? # why VT now making big plans for BJCorp/BJLand expansion & giving corresponding press release? i.e TVET?, Investment in Icelandair?, Collaboration with Monaco Royalty? HR Owens global showroom for Rolls Royce? Visit Malaysia 2020?
My understanding, listed securities are regulated, but regulation is open to interpretation. Based on announcement, at least we know Bursa finds BJCorp and its associated parties holding 84.+% to be "no issue", so the deal is approved. Of course, legal matter is one thing, market trust is another. Any minority reading the announcement would most likely handing Bursa/SC/VT a middle fingers blessing, well, at least I will.
Based on current deal, so long VT's companies, particularly BJCorp, are not adding position in BJLand, there shouldn't be any query by Bursa or SC. VT is basically free to "let" BJLand share price to freefall. Based on Penta's BJLand holding after exchange into BJCorp, Penta should still hold roughly 4% shares in BJLand. If Penta were to throw these shares in market, unless there's people willing to keep on buying until Penta's stake is fully taken up, the floor price is basically decided by Penta as its the party holding the most shares and the possibility to sell/buy. As for retailers like you and me, buying at this price is like buying knowing the value but not the future (we have many so-called "independent parties" willing to testify the so-called "unfair" but "reasonable" so they can collect fees, guess with Bursa/SC blessing but a laughable matter to investors - think there's an article on Star criticizing them on fairness and reasonable-ness, an interesting read.) So, basically, we can only hope for VT to be reasonable and fair. Alas, only God can press him to be so now.
Leong1982, Security Commission Malaysia contact, general line, is as follow:
Securities Commission Malaysia No. 3, Persiaran Bukit Kiara, Bukit Kiara, 50490 Kuala Lumpur
I have an earlier experience with SC on Puncak Niaga, well, a painful and expensive attempt to seek justice. My understanding goes like this: If a deal is not yet closed, and we minorities raised the issue with some big guy support, there is hope. Raising the issue with no big guy support, might as well forget about it. After a deal is closed, any attempt to raise any concern is worse, Bursa and SC they themselves have to fight to make sure we justice seekers "understand" that the deal is "fair" and "reasonable." Any attempt to revert the deal is basically career or political suicide.
If you believe there's hope, hopefully the above contact helps.
by right all vt shares are bought above 30 cents . maybe averaging around 40 cents. with 85% in hand, the question is does he needs to short change the remaining 15% minority?
# why is there a persistent effort to block the price from rising? irregardless of good news or current Qtr. Profitability or Bursa performance lately?
- I believe I have posted my view on this before. Unless we can view the trades since the Penta deal, there's no telling if they are "block from rising" or "attempt to sell" by "retailers" or "big shots." Guess only company registrar, Bursa and SC can really look into it, but guess we, minorities, will never know...
# why is NCBO imposed on BJLand & BJCorp?
- think its best you ask your broker.
# why VT moved all profit making Biz under BJLand? i.e. BJSports, HR Owens, Icelandair Hotels etc. where he has most control at 85%? # why the discount ratio between BJLand & BJCorp remains constant irregardless of their price? # why VT now making big plans for BJCorp/BJLand expansion & giving corresponding press release? i.e TVET?, Investment in Icelandair?, Collaboration with Monaco Royalty? HR Owens global showroom for Rolls Royce? Visit Malaysia 2020?
- err. BJLand is not really profitable operation-wise. The profits made have mostly from BJToto and investments sold. If you go through the financial statements evaluating the balance sheet, operating cash flows and income statements, you would have better understanding. A mere read on Revenue and Profit figures is not a good indicator.
eddysurge, sorry, not understanding your question. Also, I am also a retail investor and I am merely read and comment based on what I know. My apology for any mistake...
bjland should do the same. KUALA LUMPUR (July 26): Asia Media Group Bhd's shareholders yesterday voted to remove five directors, including its chief executive officer (CEO) Datuk Wong Shee Kai, at an extraordinary general meeting (EGM). According to a filing to Bursa Malaysia yesterday, shareholders holding a total of 106.34 million shares or 73.07% voted for the removal of the five directors and the appointment of four new directors to the board. Other than Wong, non-independent and non-executive director Chow Zee Neng, non-independent executive director Ong Kar Kian, independent and non-executive director Paul Jong Jun Hian and independent and non-executive director Ong Chooi Lee were removed. Currently, after the EGM, the board therefore now comprises a total of six directors, two of whom are existing directors who were not subject to any resolution for their removal. Asia Media also noted that the board of directors met at an emergency board meeting held immediately after the EGM. "Among other concerns, the board wished to consider the effect, impact and veracity of the Practice Note 17 (PN17) Announcement," said the company. Notably, in a separate filing on Wednesday, Asia Media fell into PN17 status after the loss of its major business, resulting in the company being unable to continue to operate its transit TV network and advertising business. Asia Media said it had lost its contract with bus operators in both Klang Valley and Johor. However, newly appointed directors Liew Chee Keong and Yap Ping Tiong were denied access to visit the company's office by a former executive director, said Asia Media. The said former executive director was not named. "From the best information available to the board, the former executive director had been and is likely to be an employee of the company or a group company," it said. As a result, at this moment the board is unable to determine the status of the relevant contracts, or the circumstances surrounding how the company lost the relevant contracts, or the veracity of the status of the company as an affected listed issuer in the manner described in the PN17 announcement," Asia Media added. The board is taking legal advice as well as lodging a police report, and is persisting to get access to the relevant contracts and other documents, as well as obtain relevant information, said Asia Media, adding that the board aims to make an announcement on this shortly. Trading in Asia Media shares was suspended since May 9 this year. It was last traded at 13.5 sen and has a market capitalisation of RM32.33 million.
