With that Darth Verda helmet on, she really can use the force. Good luck to all. Even the battle crusier fly slower with all that weight on board. I just founded a new malaysia national: corruption, best in the world, can export the teaching.

As all our investors here know the problems with MAS, only the stupid bunch that run the company don't see it. Amazing, maybe they should learn from us all.

Malaysia government company, just like proton, unlimited pocket, good for money laundry politician doing the economist job, and the money only go one way, into you know where. Try to ask Tony F. to give it a short and see what happen, I think not, because he is not flying in the same circle of group of people and born a wrong race. MAS and Proton is a good example of how good these people's managerial skill are, just like running the country, so good luck to all of us. High load factor still losing money, hopeless indeed, so who is next to sit on the throne, DR. M himself or Syed M.

Hello nighthade, where do you get the rm0.50 / share. At least some good new for me. Hopefully use as special dividend or share buy back. I am still down on this stock.

I think now many shares to apply. After all the allocation and retain by mother company. I apply some but don't keep up hope. 194m shares for all the people in category 2.

I hope the sell off end, what can be more exciting news other than the OG listing. Funds already so big chunk of their UMWH holding, retail seller also do the same. The price already gone down already arond 20%. OG profit already contribute only around 18- 20 %. The share already at this price for the past 1-2 years. So what else to make it go down again? I hope this bleeding stop here.

I totally agree with nightshade, I have not idea how they come out with this allocation ratio. I have 9k of UMW and only get 1k of secure, my friend has 1k and he get 1k. I have to apply if I want extra. Chances of getting extra is slim. 648600000 for institutional and selected investors, 194580000 for directors and employees of subsidiaries of UMWH companies and " Malaysian public". I know I am the last one in the lists, little bit better than the US retail investor get nothing. I think we shall all write to UMW investor relation to voice our opinion even it is little bit late. According to last report, I think OG contribute around 18% of the total profit. So maybe all the funds like EPF and Amanahraya are selling because they have their secure share already for OG.

that is right choonhock, drinking and smoking being here for ages, I don't even consider it a sin. People still will drink and smoke no matter what ? only in here that religious group consider alcohol and tobacco against god, maybe gambling is a good sin?

nightshade, please enlighten us.

Sorry ppgivest, I am not too sure, I want to get the same amount of share as the mother share that I have, but if not, that will not be too fair I think. Simple logic for me is that if UMW take out OG in separate listing, that mean the mother share doesn't worth the price now, then anyone who bought higher will guarantee lost because all revenue and profit from OG go to new listing. Only way that is fair is allow the existing share holder to guarantee to purchase the OG share at asked price (2.80). Do you think is fair for a person who hold 1k shares guarantee allocation of 1k shares and a person who hold 10k shares also get allocation of 1k shares. In that case I will be very confuse how many shares do EPF and fund get since they are holding >100million shares. Just a thought.

Anyone know how to get the UMWOG shares for the existing shareholder? How is the allocation go? For 1000shares of UMW get to buy 1000shares of OG at 2.80 before listing or what? any news.

Hello, anyone know how much is the IPO price. How do I know how many share the existing shares holder of UMW holding get? How much do you pay per lot for WMW share holder ? Tq

I wander how many share are under company control. Some company have a lot of share under their control so they can give higher dividend, that is why a lot of share buy back program. Dividend given are also pay to themselve. I am not too share about Yilai. I think maxis also do the same. Just a thought.

I have bought this stock at 27, 2 months back i think, I think some funds is doing the buying and selling only. Keep holding for 31.50. hopefully. 4u2c, i think people are controlling the price, because very low volume, so even 1 lot at the last minutes can cause big price change. so I am not too worry.

Want to comfirm if UFJ and EPF are accumulating this stock?

4u2c, if i were you, I will hold for the dividend. I also bought Carlsberg few year back and still holding it. I don't know what is wrong with alcohol and tobacco counter. But a lot of people worry about GST and sin tax. But these company been there for a long time and I don't think they will do too badly. And I always like foreign companies because better management and transparent. And more generous with their profit.

Does anyone know where we can find the information of a company shareholders holding percentage?

Thank you for the info hng33 & Choong_dc. Is UFJ and EPF accumulating CIMB?

I agree that the dividend is too good to be true. But with special dividend announcement follow by issue new warrant and quarter loss together in the same time make me skeptical about LKT generosity.

sorry RM 500 per 1000 shares.

Hello, ktsk88, I thought is RM500 per shares. If RM0.50 per share. Is the exercise time 5 years later. I haven't read the new. thank you

Dosa beli arak, but how about arak share?

VeryPoison, you have to less 25% tax. If tax-exempt, then they already deduct the tax.

When is the exercise period for the WA? Is this a good deal to buy WA? Seem a little bit tight for RM9.46. Any opinion. But RM0.50 from LKT, I think he wake up at the wrong side of the bed.

I just bought my before the big drop, but as for this mega conglomerate company, personally thinking, strong usd may not cause big problem. They are a trading company, so all cost will be passed to consumers. If the material is more expensive, products will be sold more expensive. If consumer want it they will buy. UMW already monopolies the market. So this maybe a good chance to buy actually. But lucky for me, bought on the higher end.

Don't worry too much about Carlsberg. Goodstock, Do you know analysts are wrong 70- 80% of the time. If they are so smart, why they never have the same TP on 1 stocks. Never agree buy, sell or hold. I watch CNBC and remember they said gold is going to 3000 perouns. Few year ago, oil is going to 300 per barrel. Maybe be someday, but don't know when, we can say the same. What worry me is that when you see people drink Tiger instead of Carlsberg, and Kopitam doesn't sell carlsberg but other? or people doesn't drink and smoke anymore. Then we have to worry. When you see people drink carlsberg anywhere, kopitam, club, hotel, you make money. I never see people drink 1 bottle only, maybe me.

How will it be when the o&g come out? will it be like MPHB and Magnum, shareholders get share for 2 companies? What is the time for O&G to be listed, I saw it around RM 2+ billion.

I hv 1 theory. EPF hv DIGI shares that cost higher than the price now. Since they control 14.5% of the total share, they are losing big time on this share. Remember when DIGI went up to rm5+, who bought the shares, they must hv a bit. So now they have to average down their share price in between 460 and 470. So buy 1m then price up 4-5 cents sell 500k. So the extra shares get lower average. So if they keep doing this then we will be here for a long time bcause 14.5% on DIGI, I don't know how many is that but alamak. Unless the price go up more for them to finish this process.

Did I see it right, EPF hold around 14.5% of DIGI and 6% of MAXIS?

hello, bwchng, TAS make ships how to fly? sail sail sell

just bought some for long term. Hope it is the right choice.

Just pick up some today, at 783. Don't know why but since like the share is oversold for the past few day. Maybe just me. May have to hold for a while. Alamak.

Problem with MAS (Mana ada System) is that the workers are all in the union. Workers talk management listen. How to success? How many workers are there in MAS and compare their salary to AA. If can get rid of 30% of the workforce, MAS will make a good profit, but CEO will get fire also. My friend is a manager at AA. He has to make announcement, check the flight to make sure take off on time, collect ticket from customers before take off and even have to ta pau for the air hostess to make sure the flight take off on time. What do MAS do? Hostess sit pretty only. What do government do, complain AA hostess wear sometime too tight. Don't know la.

I have it for 6 years and no regret. Dividend play not capital gain. But lately seem like going up to low 90, wander why? I have the high and the low with this stock, high of 120 and low of 70. But average still a winner. Stupid me not to accumulate more at low 80, but recommending my friends to buy.

good stock to play but I am holding my breath. 280 is my last target price and miss it but rebounded up to 310. But from Technical point it didn't break the resistence so I will hold and see. Hopefully below 280.

why buy stock that the ceo pay more to himself than shareholder? The highest pay ceo in the world. I think more that Buffett.

Thank armadasaxon for the infor.

Hello, I think I miss the new, it is confirm that they plan to payout dividend every quarter with 80% income? When is the announcement? tq

I have it since 06, so far so good. But share price doesn't appreciate much. But good DY. No volume only once in a while. Cheap and cash rich.

Any chance of a reverse split to cut down shares volume?

Bear hibernation?

thank you for clarify that, haikeyila.

How much do CBIP dividend payout on 5/8/2013? Seem like there are 2 EX date: 16/7/2013 and 27/12/2013.

good observation apprentice. Thank

Lots of great views here on MBSB, especially from apprentice. I think fundamental business for MBSB still good. I just want to know how the government servant pay MBSB, automatically deduction from account or pay by themselves like normal people.

I think so too, thank zkingdb.

I just sold my MAXIS and change to DIGI, hold for 3 years only appreciated 1.50. I sold my DIGI last time at 3.90. Happy for a while but shot up to 5+. Now buy back. thank you skyboyman.

Compare DIGI and MAXIS, which is better to buy at current level?

I am using some fund from margin account. I only use it to buy stock that pay a good dividend and must select solid companies. The interest is about BLR - 2% for me, so around 4.6%. Use it to buy some companies that pay 5% and above in dividend. I also use it to buy expensive counters such as Carlsberg, GAB, Bat etc, when the price is right for you, and when time to sell, don't sell all, keep some because the price is average down already. For ex. if you buy MBSB at 2.90 last time , sell 75% of the shrs at 3.13. It is optional how many you decided to keep. Now the average price for remaining shrs are only around 2.30. You dividend payout if 27% like last time 11.73% (2.30) and 9.31% (2.9) before tax. My borrowing is only 25 %. Can slowly accumulate more expensive shares little by little. But remember only buy good and solid companies, not for speculation but for investment. Only buy the one you are comfortable with. I buy only the following. MBSB, Carlsberg, GAB, BAT, Nestle, United Plantation, UMW, Maybank, PBB, LPI, CBIP, F&N, DLady, Panamy. Because I want the companies to be there when I wake up. Some stocks seem expensive but if you can average down the price, the dividend seem pretty good. Margin account fund if use wisely for good leverage, it will provide good return. This is how I use it so far. Hope you can share your idea.
