What a pity that youseem to see value in Tunku Ya (ling) kup....HE has never had any successs story!
His CEo, a fool by name of Ravi has a contract fo RM2.1mill pa , doing nothing! He is paid more than many FBMI30 profit making co! That too, since KNM doesnt have money, they have taken loan from - gues who - yes MAA grp to pay for his salary!
Whta has that fellow achieved, a failure at MMM, another Tunk Ya (ling) up co and many previous TY Co's that he had worked for!
Cant find a Malaysian to work here that you need a UK PR or CITIZEN (forer Msian citizen) to be able to find his only job here?
Sad to say but I agree with you. That Ravi guy really useless. After ciao 2m he can talk and do any nonsense. If the ship sinks he just run away. If I'm not mistaken, as CEO he is doing more harm than good. I hope Tunku realize and don't listen to him anymore.
Dont heap praises on TY...HE is using RAvi to do loads of matters...Soon, the new team will have forensic audit done and as usual the ELITIST in the country will escape and put the blame on Ravi- the UK PR holder or citizen by now?
Ravi is just a TY puppet like the rest of the BOD. I am voting to remove them. They are just opportunist finding ways for personal enriching themselves and TY from the assets. 2.1m for Ravi is a bribe. He si not with 5k a month. They must be ousted.
WHy is Tunku Ya (ling) kupso intent on holding to KNM! Worried that th enew team will do due diligence on what went wrong during his term? And Ravi - CEO changing sides?
KNM's market capitalization is currently 445 million, while MAA's stands at 105 million. It raises the question as to why the Challenging Party is not contemplating the acquisition of MAA to secure control over KNM. TY only possesses a 35% stake in MAA and has previously been defeated by minority in an attempt to privatize. Acquiring control of MAA would consequently confer the status of the largest shareholder in KNM, and at a considerably lower cost. It is important to note that MAA is a net cash company. Any Wayang Kulit to bring up n down price of KNM?
Physical agm...wanna vote also no chance. I wanted to re-read the letter by KNM to shareholders during the previous battle but the link was not working anymore. Probably meant that what they promised also swept under the carpet and continue to rot in bursa hahahaha fail la
Can someone share the information's in regard to Borsig SGX listing status? We know FBM Hudson Sold for lost due to lose making company. What happen to UK renewable energy project and Thailand Plant?
AGM today, controlled by TY and his crooks. Don't get your hopes up. They won't loose no matter what happens. Cheat, cheat, cheat. What we really need is the police to step up.

KUALA LUMPUR (June 6): The Italian government has again rejected the proposed disposal by KNM Bhd’s (KL:KNM) wholly-owned subsidiary KNM Europa BV of its entire stake in FBM Hudson Italiana SpA (FBM Hudson).
The transaction had again failed to obtain the Golden Power clearance from the Italian government, KNM said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia on Thursday.
According to the International Association of Defense Counsel, the Italian government's Golden Power refers to its special power to stop any foreign direct investment, or halt corporate transactions involving strategic assets that include defence, national security, and infrastructure such as transportation, energy and communications.
FBM Hudson is primarily involved in the design and manufacture of heat exchangers and high-pressure equipment for oil and gas, oil refining, petrochemicals, chemicals, power and fertiliser businesses.
“Presently, the management of KNM is reviewing and discussing with all the parties concerned for the steps moving forward. Further development in relation to the proposed disposal will be announced in due course,” KNM said.
The Italian government had previously rejected the proposed disposal of FBM Hudson last November when KNM had proposed to sell the company to the United Arab Emirates' Petro MAT FZCO for 22 million euros.
Petro MAT had also failed to obtain the same Golden Power clearance from the Italian government.
This time, KNM Europa was to dispose of the company to Milan-based BM Carpenterie Oil & Gas SRL, which offered to acquire 60% of the stake in FBM Hudson for 9.9 million euros, and Verona-based Officine Piccoli SpA, which sought to acquire the remaining 40% stake for 6.6 million euros. The total offer came up to 16.5 million euros (approximately RM84.99 million).
Under the agreement signed in March, both buyers were to take over the 11.5 million euro loans that FBM Hudson owes to KNM as settlement for sale consideration.
Although the proposed disposal is expected to result in an estimated loss of about RM94.34 million, the cash-strapped engineering group has been looking to exit the loss-making company and that the expected proceeds to be received from the proposed disposal has been planned for repaying of borrowings and working capital purposes.
Prior to Petro MAT, KNM had another deal to dispose of FBM Hudson to British Midland FZE for 12 million euros, which did not materialise. At the time, KNM did not disclose the reason behind the change in buyer.
KNM’s share price closed slightly higher by 0.5 sen or 5.56% at 9.5 sen on Thursday, valuing the group at RM365.14 million. Over the past one year, the counter has risen by 18.75%.
