KUALA LUMPUR (June 14): Southsea Gold Sdn Bhd has accused Bahvest Resources Bhd’s new management of providing misleading information about the firm at its extraordinary general meeting (EGM) on Tuesday (June 13). Sabah-based Southsea is 75%-owned by Datuk Lo Fui Ming, who is Bahvest's founder and its former chief executive officer. The EGM had been called for by a group of Bahvest shareholders to remove Lo, along with his son and former executive director Loh Tek Yong as well as former non-executive chairman Datuk Seri Dr Md Kamal Bilal, after the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) raided Bahvest’s operation centre in Tawau.
However, the trio resigned their posts in Bahvest before the EGM was held. At the meeting, Bahvest's new management claimed that just before Fui Ming exited the group, the Bahvest founder transferred RM13 million to Southsea as a non-refundable deposit to commence negotiations about compensation for alleged wrongful occupation and trespass on a plot of leased land. In a statement on Wednesday, Southsea rejected the claim, saying the RM13 million was actually a negotiated compensation, reduced from the RM20.4 million sought in the original letter of demand. “This RM13 million is termed as a non-refundable deposit for the purpose of continuing negotiations towards reaching a final compensation sum to be paid to Southsea as part of a temporary settlement arrived between Southsea and Bahvest in relation to the wrongful occupation (of the leased land). "It was to be paid in two tranches in consideration of an extension of time of 90 days granted to Bahvest. RM6 million was paid to Southsea on May 10, 2023 and payment for RM7 million was to be made by May 29, 2023," said Southsea. In the statement, Southsea said Bahvest’s crusher plant, processing factory, workers accommodation and other structures had been occupying Southsea’s leased land since 2018. "No compensation was enforced by Southsea on Bahvest due to the goodwill between the companies and in consideration that Bahvest's operations were just starting then. The demand for compensation was precipitated by the hostile takeover initiated by the current management, which diminished all form of goodwill between Southsea and Bahvest," said Southsea. “A temporary settlement had been worked out following good faith negotiations between Southsea and Bahvest with full authority from Bahvest’s board of directors at an emergency board meeting held on May 3,” the firm said, adding that the temporary settlement was ratified by the board on May 15. “Neither Datuk Loh Fui Ming nor Loh Teck Yong participated in any board of directors’ meeting relating to the temporary settlement. The terms of the temporary settlement had been announced to shareholders on Bursa Malaysia,” it added. Southsea also said Bahvest’s position to not pay the remaining RM7 million to Southsea as per the agreed compensation, would be an act of bad faith and misleading to shareholders. The firm also denied claims that there is an ongoing court case or material litigation between Southsea and Bahvest. “Thus, there is nothing to run afoul of the sub-judice rule at the moment. This would seem as an excuse not to answer queries from the media and the shareholders,” it added, referring to Bahvest's new management's statement on the matter during and after the EGM. Southsea in its statement also claimed that Bahvest had demanded via a draft agreement that Southsea refund Bahvest the RM6 million compensation paid on May 10 as part of the negotiated non-refundable deposit for the wrongful occupation.
As what @joyvest said, I fully agree. Inaction/Deliberate delay/Legal suits by the Landowner will cause lots of headache to the new management. Of course market price is a separate issue...
Bahvest 26.5 cents Sell if got 1-2 cebts up Im done,even though i wrong in my previous forecasr.but doubt will be matching the high it made this years 15/6/23 12.43am
If any of these three things happens Bahvest price will increase by at least 10%. 1. Gold price hit 2000 again. 2. Korek King returns the RM 6 million he took. 3. Korek King is charged with misappropriation of 100kg of gold.
Bahvest has admitted publicly of its guilt to trespass. It is believed that DL would not negotiate with the party who is hostile to him. As a landowner , he would insist the compensation of RM 20.4 million nothing more and nothing less. The new management keeps saying the negotiation is in the process and everything seems to be in the process but in actual fact , no progress at all.
Irrespective of gold price, no gold mining , no production of gold. Every thing is back to square one. The integrity of the new management is in question after misleading to the public with the false information . Deliberate or not is up to your interpretation.
On another note, DL was alleged to possess the 100kg of gold which seems to be non-existent . As at to date, the said 100kg has yet to be found by the authority. The said gold can be easily detected by metal detector no matter how deep you bury them. Perhaps they are lying on the seabed....
Hello bro, BOD did say they will safeguard the interet of the shareholders. If they fail add value the reason it went up. Coming kita ramai ketuk kepala dia org if dont add value to share px.
ko mmg mmg buduhx100kg tahap luarbiasa. trespas tu kononya nak ikut stail omputih buat poison pill.. akhirnya skg kena telan sendiiri. 100kg tu dah lama sdh jual bah.. buat apa nak simpan. cukup bah.. buduh.
Before you sell , you must have got them physically in hand. Where was the source of the said 100 kg ? We are not focusing on the sale here but the source of them. Who is the simpleton here?
the origin is not important.. for all i know. he could use the 100kg gold dig from bahvest operation and trade with a warlord from Philippines and exchange a new batch of unmarked gold.. The thing is the government noticed from somewhere (maybe a record) that there is this batch of missing gold. It has to be from bahvest. Or else, where macc get the jurisdiction to get the record?
the record tell it is 100kg missing. DL has to be responsible for it. That's all you have to know. if he has to sell all his share to pay for it or sell his house to pay for it. whatever.. the government have to collect the tax money.
DL is innocent until proven guilty. Bahvest is required to rove to the court that the said 100 kg was produced by the company. Until then, DL is still a free man. Who knows Bahvest borrowed the said gold from him to boost the profitability in the QR.
The government won't trust fabricated proof from DL himself. thats not legal to make a stand in court. you can't simply write a new record and says the past record is false. things don't work this way if you know law.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
