4) Others

- Disposal from second largest

shareholder, Mr Gan Thian Chin

Let's talk about some history of Mr Gan Thian Chin. 

On 21/6/2011, Mr Gan Thian Chin have become the substantial shareholder for the company. 

According to the bursa annoucement, he have purchased the company's share from early 2011 until 13/1/2012. 

During the period, the share price have been dropping after the release of quarter result on 30 Jun 2012. The share price have not recovered since then until recently the share price have been spiked to above RM1.30.

I have read throught the annual report since 2011 to 2015 and find out that Mr Gan did not have any relation to the management of the company. 

The reason of disposing the share might be due to the share price increased near to the his entry price during 2011 and 2012.

Hence in my opinion, the disposal of Mr Gan recently provided us a good oppurtunity to collect the share at cheap price.
