A higher ROE, which might be stabilised by the ICPT mechanism, should attract wealth-maximising investors to PBA, and the much lower subsidy should drive altruistic investors away from the company; therefore, the net impact on the stock’s valuation will provide insights into the preference of Malaysian investors.

The Sungai Perak project is a long term project that will take eight to 10 years and is dependent on Perak.

"We know we can’t wait forever so we have eight other projects under the Penang Water Contingency Plan 2030 (WCP2030),” he said.

He said PBAPP will be spending RM1.18 billion over the next few years for the WCP2030 to boost an increase of 602MLD of water supply for the state.

Among the projects planned include plans to build an additional water treatment plant (WTP) to extract water from Sungai Muda, a WTP at Mengkuang Dam to be able to use the water stored there and tapping into unutilised water sources such as Sungai Kerian and Sungai Perai.

Chow said some of the projects have already started and are in progress while others are underway.

"We are also laying a 13km of 1,800mm pipelines from Sungai Dua WTP to the Macallum area on the island and to the Bukit Dumbar reservoir so that water supply to the island is through a different pipeline from the pipeline supplying to the mainland,

Don't be silly. PBA is more of a government entity than a public company.
They shouldn't be making high profit margin, hence they current rally is unsustainable even with future demands.
Likely to cap its profits to serve the people, decent dividend that is all.

Your argument valid, but my point is, this is a state owned entity. Is profit the priority or state users interested priority now?

Posted by paperplane > 2024-01-02 21:50 | Report Abuse

Is it fair penang enjoy biggest water user and get cheapest water bill especially penang is dependent on kedah raw water supply and next dependent to perak supply?

personally i think not fair. But that's how they attract the industrial players also. By subsidy, just like how our govt support rakyat using subsidy and to control inflation. It really depends on government own priority and direction. No right or wrong.

@hng33
PBA has been around many years.
You must have been adding it to your portfolio recently and hoping you can make a gain from it.

Do bear in mind that without tariff adjustment , PBA earnings will stay where they are.
Besides, utility pricing is always under government control and in other words PBA earnings are at the mercy of the provider of the contract or the paymaster.

The argument where price need to increase so it can replace pipe is fraud one. If state govt managed well with so many tax collections, licensing fees etc, why it cant abosrb the cost and get a good, efficient vendornto replace them. State govt shld have the financial capability if managed well. The only reason is just to earn money

public infra in fact should be privatize, because the purpose is always not to earn money and the capex is huge. The only reason the let go is to beautify the govt owned budget, to address things like budget deficit.

The core question is again first: Why govt dont earn enough to cover, which lead to another bigger problem, why our economy never grow to earn so much and govt can cover most expenses like Saudi Arabia?? Which lead to core problem of our country- EDUCTION !!!

Pba, according to Star writer, should be double of 1.30, so target at least above 2.50. So far, the cheapest tariff compared to other States in Malaysia.
