The syndicate design to eat new retailer money. 23/09/2020 11:14 AM foo Food delivery firm delivers on growth Timely delivery: DeliverEat tries to ensure that the food reaches customers within 45 minutes from the time they place their orders online. FOOD delivery outfit DeliverEat is expecting revenue to double this year as more consumers cosy up to the idea of having their meals delivered to their doorstep. In line with the expanding market, the company is expecting a compounded annual growth rate of 23.2% for the 2019-2023 period. According to a Statista on-line food delivery survey for Malaysia, the revenue of the online food delivery segment is expected to hit US$145mil (RM599mil) in 2019. DeliverEat founder and chief operating officer Leong Shir Mein says the business is booming mainly because food delivery is gaining wider acceptance as people are starting to experience the convenience of the process. “Initially, people were wondering whether there was such a need for this business as restaurants and hawker stalls can be found in every corner in Penang. “Eventually, they saw the convenience of having food sent to their homes. They then realised that food delivery services save you the time to drive out to eat, as you could face problems with finding a parking space or you may get caught in a traffic jam, ” she says. The growth in business has enabled the Penang-based company to also expand into the central region. Leong says the company is now delivering 8,000 meals a day in the Klang Valley and Penang. She estimates that the current market size of the food catering business is about RM5mil daily. “Each person spends at least RM10 nowadays for a meal, ” she notes. She adds that the market education carried out by various food delivery players over time has also changed trends among consumers. “Initially, people thought that we could only deliver fast food such as burgers, pizzas and fried chicken. More eateries: Leong says the number of restaurants in its network will double over the next 12 months. “Now they realise that we deliver for more than 2,000 restaurants, and we can also deliver for hawkers. The number of restaurants will double over the next 12 months, ” she says. Presently, DeliverEat has 400 riders serving the Klang Valley and Penang. “We plan to extend our food delivery services to other states in the peninsular and also to East Malaysia in the near future. “We also cater for corporate functions and parties, ” she adds. DeliverEat tries to ensure that the food orders reach customers within 45 minutes from the time they place their orders online via its website. Customers can track the status of their orders by logging on with their order identification codes at the website. Leong says when the company started in 2012, the number of daily orders for the lunch hour alone was around 15. At that time, it was more focused on the working crowd in offices and factories. “Each order would be around RM70, which serves four to five persons, ” she says. With more choices available to consumers these days, food outlets are looking for options to reach a wider group of customers beyond just their physical location. However, Leong notes that many of them were unable to do so because they did not have a delivery team. “Our strategy is to get more restaurants and food outlets that provide different cuisines to appoint us as the delivery agent, ” she says. When restaurants engage the services of DeliverEat, they are able to save on investments to provide their own delivery services, which Leong says would require an initial investment of at least RM6,000, inclusive of wages and motor-cycles. “Furthermore, they also have to consider the cost of advertising their delivery services in the media. As for restaurants that already have their own delivery team, the strategy is to “secure orders from our customers for them”. 28/09/2020 3:28 PM foo Tekun Nasional will soon launch the TEKUN Mobilepreneur 2.0 financing scheme to provide financing of up to RM10,000 to delivery riders for the purchase of new motorcycles and working capital. In a statement today, Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar said applicants would need to register with any of the existing e-hailing delivery companies and adhere to the terms and conditions set up by these companies. The programme, to be launched on July 7, is one of the efforts made by the Government through the National Economic Recovery Plan (PENJANA) fund. "An initial allocation of RM1 million will be provided for the first 100 applicants and an additional RM4 million allocation for 400 applicants will be announced later. "The programme is to assist delivery riders to continue their services as well as boost the country's economy while we are still facing the threat of the COVID-19 pandemic," said Wan Junaidi. Tekun Nasional is an agency under the Ministry that provides financing facilities to bumiputera in order to kick-start and expand their businesses. In TEKUN Mobilepreneur programme 1.0 financing scheme, introduced in April, provided interest-free financing facility of up to RM2,000 to help local delivery riders repair their motorcycles and provide them with working capital, The scheme, aimed at benefiting 500 delivery riders, ended yesterday. Over 211 applications had been approved up till yesterday involving RM394,000. 28/09/2020 3:29 PM foo Muhyiddin: Microsoft, Amazon and Google keen to develop Malaysia into regional IT hub JOHOR BARU, Aug 15 — Global technology giants Microsoft, Amazon and Google have shown interest in together developing Malaysia into a regional hub for information technology, says Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. The prime minister said representatives of the major tech firms expressed their interest at a meeting with him recently. I think many have shown their interest in helping Malaysia. Recently the leaders of Microsoft, Amazon and Google met with me expressing their readiness to be involved in the process of developing Malaysia in the IT and other fields to make Malaysia a regional centre. But first, to make sure, does our country have the best connectivity? The main issue usually raised is lack of access. Our Internet is not efficient,” he said at a town hall session with state and federal civil servants in Johor here today. Muhyiddin, who is also Pagoh MP, also said Malaysia has not achieved a competitive level of Internet connectivity, citing the example of a schoolgirl in Sabah who had to climb a tree to get good Internet access. He said while the government’s commitment to improving its Internet connectivity is already there, the time has come to step forward to expand access. In June, Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) student Veveonah Mosibin, 18, of Kampung Sapatalang in Pitas, Sabah uploaded You Tube videos of her spending the night in a tree to get better Internet access for her online university examinations. The videos have since been viewed over 150,000 times. 28/09/2020 3:29 PM foo The big opportunity in this space is digital transformation.” — Jonathan Curtis, vice-president of Franklin Equity Group KUALA LUMPUR (June 23): Technology sector will see "powerful acceleration" growth in both revenue and earnings, according to Franklin Templeton Investments. "Once we get through this crisis, we're going to start seeing very powerful acceleration, not only in revenue but in earnings for this sector," said Jonathan Curtis, vice-president of Franklin Equity Group at Franklin Templeton Investments, in "Tech Sector in the Post Pandemic World" webinar session today. "Investors are so positive about this sector right now. Because coming out of this crisis, it (the tech sector) is well positioned to drive very strong growth," he said. Curtis highlighted that the expected exponential growth would materialise in the coming three to five years. "The Covid-19 [pandemic] has accelerated the opportunity in this space and we think coming out of this current challenge, we are going to see an acceleration in technology investment," said Curtis. In terms of valuation, Curtis said the sector's valuation is reasonable, given its long-term growth potential and high quality of growth. He believes that the IT sector's valuation is elevated but not excessive, and when compared with valuations of the S&P 500, the tech index is only at an 8% premium currently. Curtis pointed out that the price-to-earnings multiple on S&P 500 info technology index of 25.01 times currently is nowhere near the level in 1999 to 2000 of over 50 times. "Thus, we don't think this is a bubble," he said. On the local front, technology stocks can be seen swarming the top gainers list in the recent three months. Bursa Malaysia technology index, from this year's low of 23.81 points in March, has jumped 73.2% to 41.24 points at the time of writing. The stellar performance of the four FANG stocks has helped fuel the upward trend among Malaysian tech stocks. All three Apple Inc, Netflix Inc and Amazon.com Inc have just hit a record high on Wall Street. Alphabet Inc, on the other hand, has rebounded US$400 to US$1,451.86 from the low in March. Curtis expressed his optimism about the tech sector, saying that its growth "is going to go on for a long time" on the back of digital transformation. "The big opportunity in this space is digital transformation," said Curtis, saying that it will be supported by growth drivers such as artificial intelligence, fintech, internet of things, and 5G technology, among many others. Curtis said the demand and the need to use the technology have really soared during the Covid-19 pandemic. "We needed to learn how to work from home, educate from home, shop from home, exercise from home, healthcare from home, socialise from home and dine out from home," he said, adding that there has been a massive retraining of consumers on how the services work and what it could do, during the lockdown. Curtis noted that consumers and businesses are going to continue to use these digital services and that retraining will continue not just until a vaccine is broadly administered, but even post the Covid-19 crisis. Furthermore, he said that the tech sector has a "very good quality" being the third-most profitable sector across the S&P 500 by earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation margins, adding that it is also one of the few S&P 500 sectors that are net cash positive. 28/09/2020 3:30 PM foo Muhyiddin: Microsoft, Amazon and Google keen to develop Malaysia into regional IT hub JOHOR BARU, Aug 15 — Global technology giants Microsoft, Amazon and Google have shown interest in together developing Malaysia into a regional hub for information technology, says Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

The MCMC in a statement today said besides providing basic training on information technology and communications (ICT) for various groups, the centres would now also provide more advanced training sessions. Among them are programming, robotic applications, mobile application innovation, e-commerce entrepreneurship, animation, video production, 3D printing and other forms of training which could benefit the youngsters to upskill and innovate. “We hope the facilities and programmes provided will assist youths to equip themselves with advanced digital knowledge to compete in building the future,” it said. According to the MCMC, its survey on broadband usage in 2018 found that 67.8% or 19.5 million out of 28.7 million internet users in the country were youths. From that total, 80.9% of 16.6 million youths were involved in e-commerce activities, while 78.4% were using the internet between one and 12 hours every day, it said. “The survey also showed that youths used the internet as the main platform to look for jobs and entertainment, playing online games, communications and searching for information. Meanwhile, the MCMC said telecommunication providers in this country welcomed the suggestion by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin on Sept 17 to provide youths with adequate knowledge and vast opportunities to spark innovation and new ideas in the digital economy era. 28/09/2020 3:30 PM tkl88 Special Report: Hidden hands behind penny stock surge The Edge Malaysia/The Edge Malaysia September 30, 2020 14:00 pm +08 https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/special-report-hidden-hands-behind-penny-stock-surge ASTUTE market observers would have noticed on the local bourse a group of individuals, supposedly acting in concert, who have amassed shares in more than 20 publicly traded companies. These companies — linked via shareholding and directorships — are often on the most actively traded list, with huge, fluctuating share prices. “It (the companies) is all linked to the same person; usually, the most actively traded list on a daily basis involves these counters,” one source says when asked which are the companies that are linked. However, research by The Edge (see chart on the 21 companies) indicates that while other businessmen have surfaced, the individual said to be in control of the group of companies is not officially onboard or present as a shareholder. “This [his not surfacing] could be due to several issues,” another source adds. It is also telling that nine of the 21 companies mentioned — AT Systemization Bhd, MLabs Systems Bhd, Focus Dynamics Group Bhd, mTouche Technology Bhd, Fintec Global Bhd, XOX Bhd, M3Technologies (Asia) Bhd and NetX Holdings Bhd — have their principal place of business, head office, business office or corporate office in Menara Lien Hoe, near Tropicana Golf Country Resort in Petaling Jaya. On its website, Lambo Group Bhd states that its address is at Menara Lien Hoe, even though the address in its annual report is in Old Klang Road in Kuala Lumpur. In 2006, Lien Hoe Corp Bhd sold Lien Hoe Tower Sdn Bhd, which owns Menara Lien Hoe, to privately held E-Globalfocus Sdn Bhd for RM1 and the assumption of RM43 million in debts. Meanwhile, E-Globalfocus was 68%-controlled by Cubes Innovative Sdn Bhd, a company 99%-controlled by Chuah Hock Soon. Chuah and businessman Datuk Kenneth Vun @ Vun Yun Lun were charged with four others in July 2014 for allegedly manipulating DVM Technology Bhd shares in March 2006. Vun has had several issues with the Securities Commission Malaysia and, in 2009, had to restitute RM2.496 million — being the amount of company funds that he had caused to be misused for his personal benefit, according to the regulator — to his then flagship FTEC Resources Bhd. Since FTEC — which morphed into Tecasia Bhd and later Mangotone Bhd — was delisted, Vun has had little direct presence in the market. However, Vun’s two sisters, Carol Vun On Nei and Grace Vun Siaw Nei, hold stakes of 3.64% and 0.67% respectively in Xidelang Holdings Ltd. Fragmented shareholding While Fintec Global seems to be a prominent company at the centre of the maze, its shareholding is fragmented, with several blocks of shares parked under Sanston Financial Group Ltd. In several of the 21 companies on the list, Sanston Financial is present in the shareholding list. Other companies that surface as shareholders in these list of companies include Global Prime Partners Ltd and Cita Realiti Sdn Bhd, a private company wholly-owned by one Kamarudin Khalil. Other shareholders, albeit usually holding small stakes, among the 21 companies include Datuk Jacky Pang Chow Huat — who, apart from a 11.84% stake in Sanichi Technology Bhd — has small stakes in DGB Asia Bhd, Focus Dynamics, MNC Wireless Bhd and Xidelang. Pang is also a director in Sanichi Technology. Meanwhile, businessman Mak Siew Wei has 23.4% in AT Systemization, 17.07% in Green Ocean Corp Bhd and small stakes in Focus Dynamics and Xidelang. He is also a director at AT Systemization, Green Ocean and Saudee Group Bhd. Datuk Eddie Chai Woon Chet recently acquired a 62.37% stake in restaurant operator Oversea Enterprise Bhd, and has a 6.71% shareholding in Anzo Holdings Bhd, where he is managing director and has a board position in M3Technologies (Asia). Another name frequently seen is Datuk Kua Khai Shyuan, who, besides a 5.9% stake in mTouche Technology, has small shareholdings in Focus Dynamics, PDZ Holdings Bhd and Sanichi Technology, and has board seats on Trive Property Bhd, DGB Asia and MNC Wireless. Former Umno treasurer and former Bank Simpanan Nasional Bhd chairman Datuk Abdul Azim Mohd Zabidi surfaces as a director in four of the companies — Fintec Global, DGB Asia, Anzo and XOX. Most of the companies are loss-making and small in terms of market capitalisation, with the exception of Focus Dynamics, which has a market value exceeding RM5 billion. Nevertheless, Focus Dynamics, which is involved in operating food and beverage outlets, seems to be the star performer, with its stock price hitting a multiple-year high of RM2.64 recently on Sept 17, despite mustering a meagre RM3.08 million in net profit from RM20.72 million in revenue for its six months ended June this year. Year to date, Focus Dynamics stock has gained about 400%.
