We need the Jakel brothers to add much more DPrep to their portfolio. That's the signal. Likewise Sedania. The new PM may be their buddy and the Jakel boys are liquid, intelligent, and love to take a well-informed punt. Its in their blood.

Karlos I am with you! The fundamentals are solid, the business is lined up, there is value in its listed share portfolio, and as a shareholder, we need an attractive share price now, to approve and subscribe to GCap's proposed rights issue. We need to make money as a GCap shareholder, so we can support GCap more!

This counter has been plagued by political uncertainties before and after it secured the NIIS contract. Its a valuable contract to IRIS, and IRIS can perform, and is capable. So, now there is one more hurdle to cross before the stock price can be set free. Hamzah to return to Kem Dalam Negeri. Then we are safe. The Court Cluster boss has always eyed this NIIS contract. A Court Cluster nominee returning to Kem Dalam Negeri would potentially be the end for Iris. I like this type of gamble...I am putting money on the table!

To me, LCW is a man who is a fierce competitor with lashings of honesty and fairness and selflessness. These traits are rare in sportsmen who has achieved such a high level of success, in a sport where self-serving Politicians (and their cake-eating wifes'), and the local media take credit in LCW wins, and ruthlessly condemn LCW when he looses. Understand all of this, and probably his best friend who respects him is his most fierce competitor, such as Lin Dan. LCW would be an awesome fit for GCap. My dad used to tell me if you hang around people who are shit, you will start smelling like shit. The opposite is true also. I have a strong feeling LCW will be a part of GCap and will be part of GCap's future success.

What is theedge trying to imply ? what a shitty useless article. Isn't theedge the same that carelessly linked Public Bank with GCap's strategic entry into the banking sector in Cambodia. Creating a false investment opportunity perception, and then when denied by Public Bank, causing GCap to go limit down, and massive losses for GCap shareholders. STYL cited manpower issues for its resignation because of the limitations of Bursa disclosure requirements (tell me what they can actually say as the reason for resignation). STYL cannot say they are a tiny auditing outfit from Alor Setar that cannot find experienced and qualified auditors to work for them at low salaries (especially during covid) to carry out the extreme workload of auditing a company with around 20 hydro sites in the jungle, 300 buses around Malaysia (Mindef contract) and a banking subsidiary in Cambodia for measly auditing fees/ compensation. Simultaneously with strenuous and the ever-changing Malaysian Financing Reporting Standards, and an Audit Oversight Board (SC) glaring over their shoulder continuously ready to pounce on anything that they may unintentionally overlook when auditing. The article should be about how difficult and unrewarding it is to be a small audit firm that has public listed company clients. And how the big audit firms with ample resources are killing off the smaller audit firms. The same issues can be applied to the smaller Company Secretarial service providers, with huge demands and stresses of having Public Listed Company clients. Having Public Listed clients is just not worth it. So please 'theedge' don't try to be a market-maker, and try to manipulate perceptions which distorts the efficient functioning of an equity market. Report the fricken financial news and the current issues with a little insight, instead of implying that the spate of auditor resignations could be due to money laundering or other devious acts that tarnishes those companies with hard working & honest employees and directors working in the best interests of shareholders/ stakeholders . I regret buying a new six-pack of toilet paper yesterday, as I could have used this article to clean up my morning ‘business’ for free.

Fist class announcement today. GCap maximising the returns for its 90%-owned hydro project, and SEDA recognising differing cost structures for low-head and high-head projects. G Cap is really
developing into a serious business since the near management has taken over. (1) Securing improved terms for its hydro project (15% higher revenue and longer construction period), (2) Securing a top class/ experienced banker to partner in its strategic and calculated move into 'a high growth banking business' in Cambodia, are definitely signs that build 'trust' with shareholders/ investors. I will be closely watching for some numbers on these projects, so can do some ' back of envelope' valuation calculations.....I got a feeling that the market is seriously undervaluing GCap. probably the market listens to much to those 'brainless Goon's' who declare GCap as a 'Goreng Counter'. Work harder/ faster GCap, so that my 'advice' and investment in you pays off!!!!

38 years of experience in banking with Public Bank (In my opinion the most solid Malaysian Bank in history), and Country Head of Public bank In Cambodia (which is got to be an extremely tough competitive environment to survive in for so long), Dato Phan has to been valued with credibility, and respect. And now, gracefully retired as an employee from a great bank, with so many years of hard work and service. What a great partner for GCAP ! what a win for GCAP ! its got to be the real deal, risking is own money and hard earned career to 'Go Big Or Go Home'. Ever heard of Digital Banking ??? Do you know what Technologies Power Digital Banking? Smartphones.. AI...Natural Language Processing...Data & Personalization....Cloud Computing....Biometrics....APIs.

Its so easy to be negative just to see your words in print .....We are all here to share ideas, to LISTEN and to make money which is so hard to do consistently in our market faced with so many factors that cannot be controlled (politics, covid, manipulators, and continual regulatory changes).....take a closer look at what GCAP really has in assets (its people, partners & associates), back the pedigree of the horse, the horse trainer, and the jockey in combination to pick a winner......"A spoon does not know the taste of soup, nor a learned fool the taste of wisdom"

Mmmm weekly cabinet meeting concluded on Wednesday, a special cabinet meeting tomorrow, and Budget 2021 in 2 weeks....NIIS funding comes from the Home Affairs Ministry's development expenditure ("Direct Expenditure" model) so no need a specific budget allocation. Keep you eye on the pie !, NIIS looks sooner rather than later...

Investgaogao is not crying wolf, its impossible to dictate the timing when signing the SST is done by a Minister, but its on !. My call (for doubters its just a unsubstantiated rumour - cool bananas) its next week. Winner winner chicken dinner!

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter

D.S.Jo (CI) is moving in. 500-550mil shares (15%) to finish accumulating. DSJ knows how to unlock the value of this massive organisation. This is going to be a game changer for FGV.

Looks like the King of Rubber Gloves is back! Teong is the signal. This is not a market play, this is the real deal...'Go Big or Go Home Robotek" is back in business.....the other glove players have only been warming his throne for his inevitable return. The next phase of corporate restructuring should be an awesome display from a detailed, fussy, & focused planner, with raw cunning & narsasistic qualities, which will deliver significant results if you just follow his moves. Welcome back bro!

@aarontan1987 great story tellers always have a simple message hidden in the labyrinth they lead the listener/ reader/ audience into...just like the great T.S. P. Ramlee would repeatedly do. Factual errors are purposely/ strategically placed throughout the story so that only those who can open their mind to wonderful possibilities, and not stuck on short-sighted facts can find this message. Analysts are obviously used to give an air of credibility to stock recommendations, to support valuations....to basically sell stock ideas. They are predominately gaji workers and seek recognition through being correct (and once correct, once recognized, their valuation shoots up and their recommendations can be bought). But face the basic fact, the share market (secondary market) is the only true & pure Zero Sum Game....for you to make a gain of RM0010, someone has to loose RM0010....which is more brutal than gambling in a casino. The whole industry feeds off this brutal zero sum game, stock brokers, analysts, fund managers, business-based universities, authors of finance-related literature, investment banks, financial advisors etc etc. All feeding of this miserable zero sum game. So instead of condemning a screw-up system, a corrupt regime (which is the easy thing to do)...accept the reality, and search for ways to be ahead of the rest, and make money (to give you more choices in life). To know how well an economy, or a port operator, or a logistic company is doing, sit at the fricken gates of the port for 3 months and count the number of trucks going in and going out (it is worth it to have this information which no-one else has - cannot google that shit!). So in conclusion, rumors are simply articulated perceptions, and perceptions rule Malaysia... perceptions are king, not cash ! perceptions in the context of the share market can change a strong buyer into a strong seller in a matter of seconds, can change Governments, can destroy a well known brand etc. Facts and truth don't do shit (hindsight creates truth and facts).

What if?....in the land of endless possibilities....What if?...the story teller's message is to turn an impossibility into a probability. Would you just wait it out and see ? or, Go Big or Go Home!

So today could be a glitch in the Bursa trading system or could be toll paying day. Imagine if this company is awarded the much sought after contract. This counter will fly in the current market conditions. Remember, no short selling ( only real selling if you have a reason to), so the only way to create value is upwards....

So, in the context of this counter, what investment criteria do you consider. This is hypothetical of course. 1. Is Wednesday the 12th scheduled for a Cabinet meeting ? (and is the agenda to endorse a multi-billion contract that Iris is after?) 2. Why wouldn't S5 Systems get this contract given that the real serious big boys are shareholders ? (maybe they have learnt that outright blatant stealing looses elections & power and that the clever approach is to award this contract to a friendly, not so obvious party, that understands that this contract should be totally subbed out to them). So then the obvious question is how to finance and what is the method to ensure this contract is awarded to you ? cash in handbags and jewelry and expensive watches doesn't work anymore thanks to Najis. But issuing a massive private placement at a price that is much lower than current market price will do the job extremely well, no cost to the company, no cost to the promoters, no capital gains tax implications, and such that the difference between the issue price and the selling price is a handsome sum to ensure that the decision is in your favour. But, of course, for it to work, you need to sell these shares, and if the private placement shares are not yet listed yet, and the decision on your contract is the following week, you have a little bit of a problem (you must pay the toll to use the road!!!). Mmmm, solved, sell your shares first, and replace them with the private placement shares when they are listed. Good, clean, honestly earned cash. And 290 mil private placement shares should do it!

This is the level I am talking about.......Floodlights Affair Perhaps the most famous coup by Asian match-fixers was an incident that came to be known in the UK press as “The Floodlights Affair.” In 1997, two English Premier League Games — West Ham vs. Crystal Palace, and Arsenal vs. Wimbledon — were suspended when stadium floodlights suddenly lost power. In both cases, the outage occurred during the second half, which meant bets had to be paid as the score stood, according to Asian bookmaking rules at the time.In February of that year, a Malaysian-based betting syndicate was caught attempting to sabotage the floodlights at Charlton Athletic’s stadium in Southeast London with the help of a security supervisor that had been paid off. In 2016, an ESPN source claimed the Malaysian high-stakes poker player and former Macau junket operator, Paul Phua, had organized and financed the Floodlights Affair.

When you invest in this counter, or not, its your decision based on your investment criteria. It doesn't matter what your criteria is (for me Iris is my grandmothers name and a cool name). But it does matter when you have already invested and then constantly want to be reassured that your decision was right. Because you will believe any shit that supports your decision, and then you will never accept that it was just a dumb-ass decision when you loose your pants. Successful operators in our market are extremely intelligent and they use this weakness to manipulate price movements.

In these small issued shares companies, the price movement, with a solid balance sheet and cashflow, is all about the demand and supply of the shares period. Not about whether Karim is part of it. What goes up... comes down, does Kpower have a balance sheet worth looking at or a cadhflow to support its future plans? Quietly, Gunung has it all, and if the buyer of Gunung has an appetite, then the supply of shares is less and the demand is real. What happens next?

Now it is interesting, with Wan Azmi's tussel with Scomi Holding to secure Scomies shares (in lieu of his loan repayment). With Wan Azmi on board as a significant shareholder, even though he probably doesn't want to be one, could be the game changer. He doesnt loose money without a fight. He will want to be in, play a big hand in successfully restructuring Scomies, and then out with a handsome profit.

Remember Mabel, do anything you can to protect yourself from Greed. When greed manifests in you, its designed to deliver continual poor decisions and judgement calls, which you can only see in hindsight. Take the recent update on N's case. ' I would have to be stupid to accept money in my personal account from a MOF company'. That to me is actually the truth! N would said that to Jo, when Jo took an old trick perfected by M Miken in the 80's and bumped it up to a new level (bond issued by a country not just a company), and said, 'frick the govt contacts as a way to finance a massive election win (I dont want to work,or build something, or create wealth for employees and contribute to economic and social growth of the country), just issue govt backed paper. With the majority of the money, I will go to the US and buy some cool & high profile shit, just like the Singaporean investment arm have done and perfected long ago, and since the bonds are long term, our view is long term, and assets of high profile cool shit will always rise in price over time, we will sell, make most beautiful profit, and pay the bonds back. So N I know you dont want to steal your portion, so help me steal it for you, and I will just put it in your account, documented from any source you want'. N would have said, riddled with greed, 'sounds fricken good to me' 'my fingerprints ain't on this baby''Hey J, make sure I get first bite of the cherry though will ya !'. J would have said with is peado-like smile 'your wish is my command'. Greed leading Greed!. So beware Mabel.

If they are slowly clearing off, who are they going to sell to? A lot of shares can't be sold in this relatively illiquid stock. So if they are not medically crazy, then the logical and only conclusion is that they are actually buying more. These type of market investors, are very rare these days, but they go for all, Why leave anythimg on the table (in the food perspecive and also in the poker persective).

Mabel...you are on the right track! There's a long way to go yet. There is going to be a number of surges yet until the ultimatum, whether bad or good, must be accepted. There is a lot of peoples money in those shares, and people never part with their money without a fight. The issued shares are huge, so there is a LOT of people involved who will fight for their money. Including the new shareholder by default. He is a fighter!!!!
