Small matter. Many family own business is like this. Just that never made public officially. Ask those working in public listed family owned companies. Sure got lots of this kind of gossip.
Based on my experience, sometime buying "plane" maybe due to diplomatic.
For example, you want US government to import your product, so you need to give back something. So you need to buy the plane / machine / anything from US to make the deal with the US government. Same practice apply to Europe or China.
I mean this is very common, when your company has reach certain size, or the volume is really big, this kind of diplomatic deal is very common.
Zuckerberg’s Meta to lay off another 10,000 employees Zuckerberg's jet, a Gulfstream G650, has burned at least $158,448 worth of jet fuel across 28 different trips between Aug.21 Oct 2022
Why this Cicile keep on mentioned about the plane, and don't want mentioned any single word on her venture into contact lens business? At least tell public how much she has made / loss for the past few years. Transparent mah.
Father old school type, run a publicly listed company like a sole proprietor. But the daughter wants accountability and she got transparency. Shareholders should propose a resolution to sack the father in the company's best interest. Off course this will be defeated but no harm done. Just to prove a point.
Almost half of the total share holdings held by public...transparency and good governance are all the more important...looks like the BODs except the daughter is beholden to majority shareholder...it appears everyone has to toe the line...not good for a public listed company especially in terms of decision making and determining the future direction of company...the fact that the daughter is speaking out shows worm coming out of the woodwork...
Petty woman raises petty issues to seek cheap attention. Really immature. The consequences of appointing unqualified woman into the Board to just comply with qouta to desciminate against qualified man candidates.
Such petty woman only knows how to make losses in her management like the contact lenses venture. Her immaturity and selfish mentality resulted her to always thinking the whole board of directors were wrong only she was right. Thanks God, such unqualified and immature woman had left the Board of SUPERMAX. It is a blessing to all shareholders of SUPERMAX and have better future for better profits in SUPERMAX.
Actually the daughter is tried her best to rectify her father mistake ,so that there wont be other court cases coming soon , but if all gamblers like u still holding until that time then u got no way to run , plus more net loss coming few years ! When they bought luxury condo in 2021 we already known this company management not worth to invest !
Cecile has not create value to the company for past 7 years as Ceo and exd. Other non exd received only RM120k annual salary. She is getting USD400k in salary as non exd. Probably the highest paid non exd in Bursa listed companies. Removing her saving the Supermx as least RM2000000 a year.
It was the BOD decision and approval. It's legit whether you like it or not. It is not like buying a yacht then that's clear cut lavishly spent on personal whim and misappropriation of public funds. I can accept buying personal jet planes for traveling within US and Europe for business needs. One avenue to table this spending on the next AGM
We all know it was the BOD decision but whether they have acted in the best interest of shareholders remains to be challenged
You can buy anything at your whim and fancy but using" for business use" as a justification.
The unexpected fortune of the co is merely due to the "blessing in disguise " . Had it not been due to the pandemic, the company would not have been in this position.
Can you make 10 times profit of your spending on the lavish jet or not? If you can't,your shareholders would ditch you.
Minority shareholders must press MSWG to champion us all at the next AGM to grille the BOD on their efforts towards corporate governance and what they are doing to raise the company’s return on equity. Granted that ASP is market driven, what are they doing in diversification to move away from over dependency on gloves. Whether they have ever considered switching to other products using their existing production plants or available fund. A sustained 10% ROE is not too much to ask.
They have sales office in Korea SG JP HK Aussie Begium UK Germany Canada Brazil. Their Condo in Florida. Office in Chicago. New setup glove making in Texas. Naik bicycle or sampan move around?
Why buy plane and incur so much cost to maintain it? Poor governance and speak volume about the owner mind set is not interested in creating more value anymore.
Buying a private jet is just the beginning of the expenses, there are additional costs that come with owning a private jet, such as:
1. Maintenance costs: Regular maintenance is required for private jets to ensure they are safe to fly. This includes engine upgrades, inspections, and routine repairs. The cost of maintenance depends on the type and size of the private jet.
2. Insurance: Private jets require insurance coverage, which could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. The type of coverage and the value of the private jet can impact the cost of insurance.
3. Fuel costs: Fuel is one of the most significant costs associated with owning a private jet. The cost of fuel can vary depending on the location and the fluctuating prices in the aviation industry.
4. Hangar and parking fees: Private jets need to be kept in a secure location, preferably a hangar, during downtime. Renting or purchasing a hangar, as well as parking fees at airports, can be quite expensive.
5. Crew salaries and training: Pilots, flight attendants, and other staff members must receive salaries, training, and certifications, which can add up to significant costs.
6. Taxes: Owning a private jet means you are likely to incur various taxes, such as sales tax, use tax, and property tax, depending on the location and regulations.
7. Upgrades and modifications: Private jet owners may choose to upgrade their planes with modern technology, entertainment systems, or modifications, which come at an additional cost.
Overall, owning a private jet is an expensive undertaking, and it is crucial to consider and budget for these extra costs before purchasing one.
Can you make ten times or more profits of your extravagent purchase /replacement of the new private jet? The hidden costs above can cause you a bomb month in month out and at the expense of shareholders in terms of reduced and or squeezed dividend payout.
this Old Thai better go back to jail...no good corporate in his mind run company like private company in fact he only hold 38% of it....Thanks Cecile for defending minorities shareholders interest
The proposed aircraft is business class falcon 10x jet and flying range of 8000 nm which need not require to refuel or stop when travel to intended destination. Bring in customers from Europe and US to Malaysia will be as ease and in shortest time. Technical support personnel can be easy send to Texas factory to resolve any startup machinery problem. Have an advance aircraft for the purpose to bring in more value to company is good investment. Note that Supermx products are 100% exported. The top exd are constantly needed to built good relationship with customers from Eu and US by visiting each other country and thus bring in more sales.
Founder has no credibility as I said earlier. Your long waited reserved cash will not reach you but his own pocket. You are just his tool for this speculation. Be wary. More is coming soon.
Staff and directors take commercial flights even 1st class still cheaper than buying & maintaining a plane. myinvestor The proposed aircraft is business class falcon 10x jet and flying range of 8000 nm which need not require to refuel or stop when travel to intended destination.

It is not necessary to buy a private jet if your product is 100% exported.
While a private jet can be a convenient form of transportation for frequent business travel, it is not the only option available. There are many other transportation options such as commercial flights, cargo shipping services, and local distributors who can help with the logistics of exporting your product. Buying a private jet can be a substantial expense as already highlighted previously, and it may not be worthwhile if your business can achieve its goals without it.
Cecile was right in pointing it out that The co had already got one that was obtained a year ago and there was no need to fork out the unnecessary money to replace it with a new one..wasting at the expense of the shareholders' reserve

This could be an inspiration to a new movie called 'Superman buying a plane to fly'.
