MAS is slated to pay all of the financial assistance to the affected families although the government will chip in, if necessary. In another words the gov. will do everything to make MAS rises again.

Please dont confuse investors for sure MAS going to be privatised n the buyer will look for the lowest price for cronies to buy. MB IB already hinted the price 22cts there may be some goodwill cts, i feel 5cts so the price may be 27 if privatised.Once privatised, how are they going to manage the strong Union, there is wide talk of sabotage etc etc. for what reason. We as citizens should be worried being a national carrier because the world is watching.Malaysians in general are very intelligent ppl where all this ppl gone..very sad happenings!

Since MB IB dare to say MAS is now "we think the stock has reached the bottom.", so, for once just to show a support of our national airline, buy the amount you possibly can afford (based on how trust you are on MB IB)and treat that as a venture, as the saying goes "no venture no gain"

Government won't let Mas bankrupt so I not worry about it cause Mas represent our country in the world to know where is Malaysia.... Mas loss money cause the management like a shit and maybe corruption in this company ( I write Maybe cause don't wan get sue lol).... If pass to Tony Fernandez in charge I think Mas wil earn money..

As commented earlier, the NTA is 0.24....and with 10% premium you will get 0.265. I don't think anyone in their right frame of mind would offer more than a 10% premium with the current issues and problems with MAS.

The other alternative is to slice and dice MAS after privatization. All those subsidiaries which are doing well will get listed again while the MAS airline and MAS Kargo remains privatized.

For minority shareholders like us, you got to accept the privatization of 0.265. Khazanah with its almost 70% shareholding in MAS may probably be the one to privatize MAS. Then restructure it and list those profitable subsidiaries in order to recoup back their investment. Next, find someone to buy MAS and MAS Kargo or get the Government to continue to subsidize these businesses.

40 cents to me now is impossible unless the Government would want to bail out MAS with the Gov fund and allow Khazanah to exit MAS. Khazanah subscribed to the right back then with 0.23 cent. If 0.4 bailout, Khazanah already made 0.17 cent profit.

gsh7788, the share price in the market is different from the unit of currency that we use everyday. Just to highlight this further, refer to below:

RM1.00 (share price) = RM1000 (actual value)
RM0.10 (share price) = RM100 (actual value)
RM0.01 (share price) = RM10 (actual value)

Hope you get it this time.

Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has blamed aircraft manufacturer Boeing for the missing Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH370 and said the company should explain how it could have produced a plane with communications and tracking systems that were so easily disabled.

In defending the national carrier which had been blamed by upset relatives of the 239 passengers on board, especially those from China, the former prime minister said he was upset that Malaysia Airlines staff were held for more than 10 hours in a hotel in Beijing yesterday.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:25 | Report Abuse

The families in Beijing had expressed dissatisfaction in obtaining details of the missing aircraft, MAS had said.

"I am upset because they are blaming the wrong people. The loss of the plane is due to the manufacturer Boeing.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:25 | Report Abuse

"MAS is not at fault, lax security or not. MAS flew a plane fully expecting it to perform the task. But the plane has somehow behaved differently. Who is responsible? Not MAS but certainly the makers of the plane – Boeing Aircraft Corporation," Dr Mahathir wrote in his blog chedet.cc.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:26 | Report Abuse

The country's longest serving premier expressed surprise that with today's array of vast and sophisticated technology to track all passenger planes, no trace of the Boeing 777-200ER aircraft had been found.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:26 | Report Abuse

"Boeing built this aircraft. Boeing must explain how all these means of tracking the plane can be disabled, can fail. Either Boeing technology is poor or it is not fail-safe.

"I would not like to fly in Boeing aircraft unless Boeing can explain how all its system can fail or be disabled," he said.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:27 | Report Abuse

He added the onus was now on the company to demonstrate possible ways for the plane's communications system to be disabled, adding that the manufacturer must accept responsibility for building an aircraft that could vanish so completely.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:27 | Report Abuse

Dr Mahathir said remote control technology was now very sophisticated and powerful and wondered whether Boeing had installed remote control equipment on the aircraft to prevent any hijacking attempts.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:27 | Report Abuse

"If it did why did it not direct the aircraft to land safely? Is it possible for third parties to take control of the aircraft remotely?"

He also noted that it was a standard practice that when a plane crashes, a team of experts would arrive at the scene soonest to find the cause of the crash, but lamented that Boeing had shown no interest and had continued to keep mum.

Posted by ganneeneh > 2014-04-26 23:28 | Report Abuse

"Boeing and the authorities in the manufacturing country should be looking out for the plane. Maybe the plane type should be grounded," he wrote.

In further defending MAS, Dr Mahathir said the carrier had been flying with numerous aircraft, has a good track record and well-trained crew.

"Even if the pilot wants to commit suicide, the co-pilot and the cabin crew would not allow him to do so without trying something. But no one, not even the passengers did anything. Maybe it is because they have been somehow incapacitated," he said.

The comparison of search and rescue (SAR) responses between the case of Air France Flight 447 (AF447) and Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 (MH370) is ‘unfair’, said defence analyst Lam Choong Wah.

He was responding to the fact that Malaysia took four hours for Malaysia to notify the Kuala Lumpur Air Rescue Coordination Centre (ARCC) that MH370 is could not be contacted, and Acting Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein’s rebuttal that it took six to seven hours in the case of AF447.

Posted by SS3U > 2014-05-04 22:46 | Report Abuse

The minister added that the circumstances in each case is different, and it is up to MH370's international investigation team to determine whether the four-hour delay is acceptable.

Posted by SS3U > 2014-05-04 22:46 | Report Abuse

AF447 had gone missing while flying over the Atlantic Ocean in 2009, and most of its wreckage including its black box was not found until 2011.

MH370 went missing on March 8 this year and is yet to be found.
