Rahmat88 puppet or not, not important. Even if he is puppet, then it means LSE start to worrying something else.

Posted by Keeninvestor11 > 2021-06-29 08:55 | Report Abuse

I remembered clearly someone in this forum said that it is impossible to kick them out in AGM meeting. Please do not treat this is LSE or someone company as it is public listed company. All shareholder has a right to voice whatever deems wrong.
What we want is KNM to be managed well and share price goes up or best to provide dividend. Else why ppl bother to invest if share price continue to drop and no dividend given??

Posted by ganapathy18 > 2021-06-29 11:23 | Report Abuse

Questions as submitted to the Co Secretary. They only read Q1. The rest were not read and answered. Why?

WTE Peterborough project

Not much info has been provided on the WTE project in the UK. It is just stated that the WTE project in the UK is currently under development. Year after year we are just hearing that the WTE project is under development without much progress. Please elaborate on the following :-

a)What % of work has been completed to-date?

b) What are the scope of works which has been completed to-date?

c) What is the current total projected cost for this project and how much has already been spent on this project to-date?

d) When is the final target date to complete this project for commercial launch?

e) Has the necessary financing been fully secured to complete this project per the agreed target completion date?

f) Do we foresee any major risk and or obstacles in completing the project per the target timeline?

g) If not much progress is seen in this project, is there any plans to dispose off all assets under this project so that the funds raised could be released to pay off debts?

Not much update nor transparency is seen on this project. Request that WTE project progress update is accordingly shared in the quarterly reporting and the yearly Annual Report for all shareholders understanding.


Bio -Ethnol Production in Thailand

With regard to the Bio-ethonol plant would like to know the following :-
a)300k liters production expansion was mentioned to be in progress during last year’s AGM held on 13/8/2020. Again this year, once again it is mentioned that 300k liters per day of bio-ethanol production facilities are currently under development.

i)Please elaborate as to when this 300k liters expansion work is going to be completed and brought to commercial production?

b)What is the current average available total production capacity and average actual operational production for this plant ?

c)Per the Chairman’s statement, the production of the bio-ethanol plant in Thailand was substantially lower in FYE2020 due to the lockdowns, coupled with significant increase in the cassava chip prices in the second half of 2020 driven by high demand from China and limited supply caused by cassava deceases.

i)Does this mean there is no firm contracted or alternative feedstock supplies been established?

ii)What has so far been done to ensure that the plant continues to operate at its full capacity without any shortage of feedstock supplies in the future? Has this problem been fully fixed now?


d)It has been observed that the price of ethonol has surged from April 2020 to the present time and looks like KNM had failed to ride on the higher selling price opportunity. However, it has been indicated that due to various reasons like shortage of supplies, higher cassava chip prices, lockdown etc has lead to lower production thus rendering the ethonol venture to have not done well. Seek some clarification to the following :-

i)Who was leading the Thailand plant during this challenging time and what is the competency level of this person?

ii)Has any changes been done to the Management to improve on its competency level so that any shortcomings in the efficient management of the plant is addressed so that they are well prepared and equipped to face similar challenges in the future?

iii)Who is currently leading the Plant?


e)It has been mentioned that RM31.17M been impaired due to unsatisfied past performance of the bio-ethanol plant.

i)What is this unsatisfied past performance? Please elaborate and also indicate what remedial actions has been taken to fix any issues.

ii)How much has so far been invested in this project?

iii)If this venture is not doing well, is there any consideration to dispose off the Bio-ethanol plant?


f)In the Q1, 2021 reporting (under Asia and Oceania segment), it was mentioned that there was no contribution from Thailand operation.

i) Is this not a material event which justifies disclosure to shareholders via a Bursa announcement?


Not much update nor transparency is seen on this Bio-ethonol operations. Request that better update is accordingly shared in the quarterly reporting and the yearly Annual Report for all shareholders understanding.

The Board of Directors acknowledges its responsibilities to safeguard the shareholders’ investment and the Group’s assets.

Just would like to know how the interest of the minority shareholders are taken care off with so many Private Placements (PP) issued out which are diluting the existing minority shareholders % equity holdings and the company’s earnings per share (EPS). This exercise is also suppressing the share price as a whole.

Not withstanding another proposed issuance of New ordinary shares of 987,517,700 via EGM on 29/6/2021 which is pending approval, the following PP has been completed between 26/10/2020 and 21/1/2021 :-

26/10/2020 - Issued 26,684,800 new shares @ RM0.17
20/11/2020 - Issued 242,500,000 new shares @ RM0.165
21/1/2021 - Issued 296,923,400 new shares @ RM0.175

a)What is the rational to have so many PP which has a diluting effect for the exiting shareholders?

b)To who was all these shares issued to? Like KNM to practice some transparency on this.

c)Where is this shares which has been issued reflected under the 30 largest shareholders list @ 22/4/2021, as shown in page 169 of the annual report?



In relation to the trade receivables, it is noted RM43.2M (which is past due for more than 120 days) has been set aside for impairment loss.

a)Who is the customer behind this loss and what has been the reason for the default?

b)What effort has been or will be made to recover this before completely writing this off?

c)What will be done in the future to avoid such default from recurring?

Time management is so bad. I wonder why they wanted to start the EGM at 11am when AGM is taking more than an hour and half?
