Asiapac will enjoy fruitful results from unbilled sales in the next few quarters. Imago would offer a stable income stream nicely before ending of unbilled sales. All these needed to be well plan and execution. Asiapac is on the right track achieving it.

Your statement:

"
As I said historical record cannot lie. That includes you own track record in making money from the stock market. If you have not been very successful, you must change your attitude or mindset, especially the above commentators who seem to know a lot about Jaya Tiasa.

While you are still finding excuses not to buy JT, it has already gone up from Rm 2.04 from beginning of 2014 to close at Rm 2.54 today, an increase of 50 sens equivalent to about 25%. "

Do you meant I have to change my attitude or mindset to follow your projection blindly?

Your statement :

" Since the average age of the palms is only about 6 years and palm will produce the maximum fruits at the age of 11 years, I can foresee the FFB production will increase by about 30% per year compound for the next 5 years. "

How to justify the growth?

Assume Jtiasa completing its planting this year. The total planted area is 70,900 hectare.

FFB production compound growth for 5 years:
Year 2013 - 664,000 Mt
Year 2014 - 863,000 ( 664,000 x 1.3 )
Year 2015 - 1,122,000 ( 664,000 x 1.3 x 1.3 )
Year 2016 - 1,458,000 ( 664,000 x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3 )
Year 2017 - 1,895,000 ( 664,000 x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3 )
Year 2018 - 2,463,000 ( 664,000 x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3 x 1.3)

Is it mean that after 5 years, Jtiasa would achieve FFB production 2,463,000 per year? If we take a maximum scenario, Jtiasa is only able to produce FFB 1,772,500Mt ( 70,900 hectare x 25Mt ).

Is it your projection realistic?

Jtiasa profit RM 29 million:

Positive comments:

This is the best financial results I have ever seen over the past 6 quarters. EPS 2.05 or up by 0.08 cents comparing to 1.97 cents for immediate preceding quarter. Palm Oil segment has contributed profit 13 million or growth by 30%. Its future prospect is fantastic because its FFB production would grow by 30% CAGR for the next 5 years ( according to uncle, historical data can't lie ).

Opposite of positive comments:
I can't believe it. How come Jtiasa plantation segment contributed profit 13 million with 270,000MT of FFB production in last quarter? You know, TAAN achieved profit 23 million from its plantation unit with FFB production of 188,000MT. Is it Jtiasa peat land require more fertilizer for the mature area? Higher transportation or low CPO yield due to lack of proper infrastructure?

Again. I prefer to compare with TAAN. TAAN achieved EPS 8.25 cents with the share price higher than Jtiasa by 64%. In average, EPS of TAAN is much higher than Jtiasa. Why Jtiasa has been under performed in its plantation segment? It's most likely due to inefficiency in its operations. 30% CAG is rather unrealistic for the next 5 years.

(Reuters) - The El Nino weather pattern that can trigger drought in some parts of the world while causing flooding in others is increasingly likely to return this year, hitting production of key foods such as rice, wheat and sugar.

El Nino - the Spanish word for boy - is a warming of sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific that occurs every four to 12 years. The worst on record in the late 1990s killed more than 2,000 people and caused billions of dollars in damage.

A strong El Nino can wither crops in Australia, Southeast Asia, India and Africa when other parts of the globe such as the U.S. Midwest and Brazil are drenched in rains.

While scientists are still debating the intensity of a potential El Nino, Australia's Bureau of Meteorology and the U.S. Climate Prediction Center have warned of increased chances one will strike this year.

Last month, the United Nations' World Meteorological Organization said there was an "enhanced possibility" of a weak El Nino by the middle of 2014.

"The world is bracing for El Nino, which if confirmed, could wreak havoc on supply and cause prices of some commodities to shoot up," said Vanessa Tan, investment analyst at Phillip Futures in Singapore.

Any disruption to supply would come as many crops have already been hit by adverse weather, with the northern hemisphere in the grip of a savage winter.

The specter of El Nino has driven global cocoa prices to 2-1/2 year peaks this month on fears that dry weather in the key growing regions of Africa and Asia would stoke a global deficit. Other agricultural commodities could follow that lead higher if El Nino conditions are confirmed.

BAD BOY

"Production estimates for several crops which are already under stress will have to be revised downwards," said Phillip Futures' Tan.

"Wheat in Australia may be affected by El Nino and also sugar in India."

In India, the world's No.2 producer of sugar, rice and wheat, a strong El Nino could reduce the monsoon rains that are key to its agriculture, curbing production.

"If a strong El Nino occurs during the second half of the monsoon season, then it could adversely impact the production size of summer crops," said Sudhir Panwar, president of farmers' lobby group Kishan Jagriti Manch.

El Nino in 2009 turned India's monsoon patchy, leading to the worst drought in nearly four decades and helping push global sugar prices to their highest in nearly 30 years.

Elsewhere in Asia, which grows more than 90 percent of the world's rice and is its main producer of coffee and corn, a drought-inducing El Nino could hit crops in Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines and China.

And it could deal another blow to wheat production in Australia, the world's second-largest exporter of the grain, which has already been grappling with drought in the last few months.

El Nino could also crimp supply of minerals such as gold, nickel, tin, copper and coal if mines flood or logistics are disrupted.

In North America, crops in the U.S. Pacific Northwest could suffer as El Nino tends to cause rain to the area, with the major white wheat region already abnormally dry.

But El Nino doesn't spell bad news for all farmers. It could bring rain to drought-hit California's dairy farms and vineyards.

"El Nino has a bad connotation, undeservedly so in the U.S.," said Harry Hillaker, state climatologist in Iowa.

"Given the water supply issues they are having in California, more rain would be helpful."

And in Central America, while dryness associated with El Nino would curb coffee production, it would also help drive back the leaf rust that has blighted crops in the region.

Equity investment is an art. Uncle Khoon has mastered it

" Equity investment is an art as well as a science. The selection of an underlying is an art and selecting the right strategy to participate is a science. Clients often ask us: 'How do I participate in equities? Markets are near all-time high. Should I invest now or wait for the markets to correct? There is a lot of uncertainty in the markets', etc.

My reply to them is that equity markets are always going to be uncertain, that there will always be volatility. But that is why equities give higher returns than other asset classes. Play smartly and take the benefit of volatility. "
