At SGD0.44, it is very discounted from its NTA. Plus with its stellar plantation performances, I will keep buying. It is a bargain compared to SGX's First Resources, Wilmar, Bumitama Agri and Indofood Agri. MKH should consider listing its stellar plantation on SGX, or farm out its stellar management team to SGX-listed plantation giants for premium management fees.
Tan Sri Chairman and his plantation team should be proud of their achievements. He must be paying them well otherwise SGX's First Resources, Wilmar, Bumitama Agri and Indofood Agri would have headhunted them. I think MKH's plantation has good upside potential.
@hopetobecorrect many south korean family-run chaebols have been criticized for low dividend payouts and other governance practices that favor controlling shareholders at the expense of ordinary investors. chaebol family and relatives will hold high positions. how is mkh structure, same as chaebol?
@parkboonhwa based on your description, MKH does looks like south korean chaebol. from their annual report, the Chen's brothers do hold important positions in the company drawing high salary. no idea about second tier mgmt.
BUY BUY BUY. Glad I bought more after seeing Plantation performance at AGM and Q1 announcement. Today 1.41. This counter go UP UP UP. Plantation, please help the share go UP UP UP!
MKH management, you should consider buying more plantations. Or takeover poorly-managed plantations in FGV and Sime Darby. Turn them into MKH standard, make money for shareholders.
Malaysia's palm oil inventories fell more than expected in February as production declined to its lowest in five years and imports plunged, industry regulator data showed on Wednesday.
Stockpiles in the world's second-largest producer of palm oil fell 1.8% from January to a three-month low of 1.3 million tonnes, according to Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB) data.
Crude palm oil production fell 1.85% from the previous month to 1.11 million tonnes, marking a fifth straight month of declines, as a labour shortage and adverse weather conditions continued to curb yields.
"Production was lower compared to market estimates," said Marcello Cultrera, institutional sales manager & broker at Phillip Futures in Kuala Lumpur.
"Imports which saw a 47% month-on-month decline were way lower while domestic consumption were higher than expectations," he added.
Exports slumped 5.5% to 895,556 tonnes, their lowest since February 2007, the MPOB said.
Malaysia palm oil production kept declining. Yet MKH plantation could have consistent good results. MKH's boss must be very smart to go into the plantation business. Can support this share.

1. Tan Sri Dato Chen Kooi Chiew @ Cheng Ngi Chong, Tan Sri Datuk Chen Lok Loi, Datuk Chen Fook Wah and Dato’ Chen Way Kian are same family people.
(The 2 Tan Sri Chen very experienced.)
2. Dato’ Chong Yong Han graduated from Lincoln University, New Zealand with Bachelor of Commerce (Valuation and Property Management) in year 1994 and obtained his MBA (Real Estate) in year 2000 from University of Western Sydney, Australia and has experience in property development and construction related businesses. He specializes in development planning and marketing.
(Property result must improve. Can he u-turn MKH property's downtrend?)
3. Dato’ Lee Khee Meng is passionate about sustainable palm oil practises and has been an international delegate at Indonesia Palm Oil Conferences since 2012. He has been regularly invited by authorities and industry players to share his views on policies, initiatives, and innovative practices relevant to the oil palm industry.
(Plantation result good. Is he related to the 2 Tan Sri Lee from IOI plantation and KLK plantation?)
I bought and sold at rm3 in 2017 before right issue at that time. After right issue, it was still valued at rm2.50 and if i am not mistaken, ICAPITAL bought around rm 2.50. At current price, it is very undervalued, esp now CPO trading near rm 4k
Siew Leong, the annual report showed that their plantation results were strong and consistent. Even the plantation big boys only have highest 23 tonne per hectare. But MKH has 30 tonne per hectare! To me, it does not matter if the Plantation Director Dato Lee was from IOI or KLK or is Tan Sri Lee's nephew. To me, what is important is that he is still young in his 40s and has managed this plantation for many years and could deliver such good results. I buy MKH because it is very undervalued and has strong upside with its plantation. I would suggest that they increase their plantation portfolio for future earnings.
My Malaysia stocks are in specific sectors: Glove, Palm Oil, Banking. This is the only Property counter I bought, because of their Palm Oil performance and results. It attracted my attention a few years ago after my broker introduced to me. I hope they could consider higher dividend. I also have 1961 and 2445 in my share portfolio so you can see that I am particularly attracted to Palm Oil stock.
KUALA LUMPUR (March 11): MKH Property Ventures Sdn Bhd, a joint venture company between MKH Bhd and Panasonic Homes Malaysia Sdn Bhd from Panasonic Homes Group, will launch a new block of MIRAI Residences in Kajang 2 this month. The new block comprises a total of 384 units that come in two or three-bedroom layouts with built-ups of 578, 840 and 931 sq ft. Prices start at RM320,000. Phase 1 (748 units) was launched on Sept 30, 2020 and has currently achieved a take-up rate of more than 90%. As such, this has given the developer confidence to launch the second phase of MIRAI Residences,” MKH said in a press statement. According to the developer, MIRAI Residences will comprise four blocks offering 1,496 serviced apartments and is expected to be completed in September 2024. The project combines the know-how and technology that Panasonic Homes Malaysia has cultivated in Japan, and will incorporate Panasonic’s Quality Air For Life (QAFL) technology for all units. By installing an Energy Recovery Ventilation system depending on the room layouts, the temperature variations in the units can be suppressed to save energy. There will also be air conditioning with Nanoe technology for the units, which will help purify the indoor air without the need to open the windows. By responding to the growing customer needs for indoor air quality, MKH aims to provide residents a safe and comfortable living environment,” it said. MIRAI Residences will also feature more than 40 resort-style facilities, including a futsal court, meditation deck, jogging track, 50m swimming pool, two gymnasium rooms, barbecue pit, and urban farming. The project is a seven-minute walk from the upcoming Kajang 2 KTM station, which will be operating by April this year.

At SGD0.44, it is very discounted from its NTA. Plus with its stellar plantation performances, I will keep buying. It is a bargain compared to SGX's First Resources, Wilmar, Bumitama Agri and Indofood Agri. MKH should consider listing its stellar plantation on SGX, or farm out its stellar management team to SGX-listed plantation giants for premium management fees.
