@Goodboy,...Does not matter whether SD got AI, cough or big contracts.
Go get the cashflow right and pay coupon and building and other creditors. That will improve perception and get a better bond rating. Clear the SIR and account also

Good project actually. I believe if SD currently is not facing any difficulties in Bursa, the price will surely hiking up due to this project.

I won't talk down on their latest project in developing an algorithm that is able to detect people who are infected with Covid-19 from their coughing sound because this technology is actually legit.
However, I am a bit concerned because they seem to shy away from their signature business model this year, especially since the start of the KPMG saga. Many of their recent projects are local, and they're not big projects either for a company of SD's stature. Maybe SD are in an urgent need of generating quick money.
The curtains are drawing closer by the day for SD but funnily enough they seem nonchalant about it.
Local researchers develop AI to detect Covid-19 through sound of cough By Fahmy A Rosli - October 27, 2021 @ 2:39pm 19 The method is reported to have a 90 per cent accuracy and will also detect asymptomatic cases. - NSTP file pic, for illustration purposes only The method is reported to have a 90 per cent accuracy and will also detect asymptomatic cases. - NSTP file pic, for illustration purposes only
KUALA LUMPUR: A group of local researchers developed a new artificial intelligence programme to detect and identify a Covid-19 infection through the sound of a person's cough.
The programme, which is currently in the testing stage of recording and storing cough data samples, is expected to be available in June next year.
The method is reported to have a 90 per cent accuracy and will also detect asymptomatic cases.
Its use does not incur financial costs to users who would only have to record the audio of their coughs on mobile devices, before submitting the clip to the programme's website for analysis.
The programme is developed by a group of researchers from the Institute for Clinical Research (ICR) under the Health Ministry and artificial intelligence (AI) experts from the Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak.
The lead researcher, William Law Kian Boon said, based on overseas researches, asymptomatic cases still experience changes in cough sounds as Covid-19 is an upper respiratory tract infection.
Other ICR researchers involved in the project are its director, Dr Kalaiarasu Peariasamy, Law, Dr Mohd Aizuddin Abdul Rahman, Dr Mohan Dass Pathmanathan, Dr Kuan Pei Xuan, Dr Wong Xin Xi, Lauren Ooi Li Ting as well as Prof Patrick Then, director for the Centre for Digital Futures Swinburne Sarawak.
"These changes (cough sounds) are difficult to detect through hearing tools or traditional methods, but they can be distinguished by a machine learning algorithm, which is part of the AI.
"To detect asymptomatic cases, we record cough sounds from Covid-19 patients and healthy persons then train the algorithm to make a comparison," Law told BH.
Law said data variation could improve the performances of algorithms in Covid-19 screenings even though every person had a different cough sound and that it could also be affected by various factors.
"Every person has a different cough sound. Gender, age, and type of illness are also part of the factors.
"As such, the algorithm needs to be trained with sufficient variations, representing the diversity of sound samples.
"Cases studied can be divided into various groups, such as Covid-19 cases, health person without Covid-19, an asthmatic individual without Covid-19, Covid-19 survivors and others," he said.
He said the beta version of the programme had been developed to carry out processes of recording and storing audio samples.
The research team is currently recruiting volunteers for audio samples. They are targeting to collect 2,400 samples at the Covid-19 Assessment Centre around Kuala Lumpur soon.
Law said to detect Covid-19 using the application, one has to answer a questionnaire on their health status, history, and if they were taking medications.
Also in the list of questions are gender, age and whether they had ever been infected with Covid-19, in addition to their vaccination status.
"The system will then request the user to record a cough audio sample. He or she will need to cough three to five times continuously under 10 seconds to allow the programme to begin its analysis.
"Users need to be in a relatively comfortable and quiet place to ensure the sound recorded is in high quality, as a noisy environment will influence the sound quality," he said.
Users will receive their results within five to 10 minutes via text message.
"If a person is tested positive for Covid-19, he or she must comply with the existing standard operating procedures which are to take an RT-PCR test whether at a government or private health facilities for further action.
"This application can be used as a pre-screening method, we target that it can be accessible by the public in June next year," he said.

At this pointing time. The mechanism of covid is well known by all licensed doctors in the world. That's why temperature is the first stage detector. Coughing is end stage and millions infected if people ignore temperature detection. Also if people wait for cough test its end stage death which could be avoided earlier.

The framework to build the AI is already on github and some other websites. Hahahaha serbadk. Anyone with a decent programming languahe can build this. U dun need to be a genius. Just copy paste Loool
If the news are good and genuine, it would have roll out since 3 months ago. If everything's is good and well disclose it la why wait and wait and wait
sebak already go to court to PREVENT SC and Bursa from releasing the report. It must contain a lot of GOOD STUFF inside. it is all SECRET RECIPE mar. except that we all already know.
Bank Negara serbu 22 premis i-Serve Online Mall, rampas RM118.7 juta
SHAH ALAM - Sebanyak 22 premis i-Serve Online Mall Sdn Bhd dan syarikat sekutunya telah diambil tindakan penguatkuasaan kerana disyaki melakukan pelbagai kesalahan termasuk di bawah Akta Perkhidmatan Kewangan 2013 (FSA) dan Akta Pencegahan Pengubahan Wang Haram, Pencegahan Pembiayaan Keganasan dan Hasil Daripada Aktiviti Haram 2001 (AMLA).
“Tindakan penguatkuasaan bersama ini merupakan sebahagian daripada kerjasama antara agensi untuk membanteras jenayah kewangan di Malaysia.
“Ia diselaraskan oleh Pusat Anti Jenayah Kewangan Kebangsaan (NFCC) dan BNM sebagai agensi utama bersama Suruhanjaya Sekuriti Malaysia (SC), Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia, Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia, Polis Diraja Malaysia dan CyberSecurity Malaysia,” kata kenyataan itu.
Melalui kenyataan sama, BNM memaklumkan di bawah seksyen 137(1) FSA merupakan menjadi satu kesalahan menerima deposit tanpa lesen.
aku ingat karim ni cerdik, tu yg aku beli dan simpan SD, rupanya bodoh. Insetad of buat kerja stabilkan syarikat sibuk saman sana saman sini tak nak keluarkan AR/SIR. Kalau dah genuine bizness apa nak takut letaklah sesiapa pun jadi auditor pasti betul yg direport. Hangus duit aku
3 billion problem, another 3 billion should be ok..why take very long to verify report?? Hate to wait then EY said same opinion with KPMG..still cannot verified debtor's balance where as their duty is to make sure debtor's balance confirmed true or not..
If not, Serba still can wake up again..just accept the fate international business especially with UAE got a lot of scam tactic..if UAE cheat, just follow Zelan path..
. The press/media has been acting up lately. What is surprising is that with so much negativity and revelations to audit issues to missed coupon payments which are hot off the press in lighting speed for the last 5 months, something has changed since last week. Never before the tone of the media been like this for Serba Dinamik.
Just as an example, it beggars belief that TheEdge reports on 16th November 2021,
While, this may be a positive news for Malaysia, why report this from a company that supposedly has governance and coupon payment issues? Begs to wonder. Even the investment community were quick to put this into the furnace as utter irrelevance to the issues at hand.
And what is more interesting is the TheEdge article on 13th November 2021,
provided a balance view on the issues at hand. Never before have I read a single piece of news from TheEdge that considers various issues from different perspectives. Its usually a piece that puts Serba Dinamik in bad light. This article was indirectly implying that "we have to study the details from every angle and come to a reasonable and fair conclusion for all parties".
But the most crucial stunner of them all is this, MSWG's CEO decides to use FocusMalaysia to air his personal opinion on 13th November 2021.
What is striking about this is a complete lack of decisive opinion from the writer. This is very unusual, since all opinions from the writer historically has always been accompanied with some highlights of issue and actions to be taken to resolve them quickly.
"MSWG is not aware of the contents of the ‘Factual Finding Update’ and as such is unable to opine on the materiality of the findings."
Shouldn't MSWG be the one to issue a statement?
The change in media tone is apparent and there are some dead giveaways as to what is really happening behind the scenes. Writing styles do tell lies.
For one, while MSWG is not aware of the contents ‘Factual Finding Update’, that doesn't mean that MSWG's CEO isn't. His use of syntax strongly suggest that he has read and understood its contents.
For two, TheEdge's writer and/or their interviewed sources may have read and understood its contents as they questioned the legitimacy of the appointment rather than the ‘Factual Finding Update. If it was illegitimate, such findings are null and void and assumed in-complete in the end.
What this means, outside the realms of the meeting, 3rd parties have read and understood the contents of the ‘Factual Finding Update. .
Nowadays , sb 's first major problem is debt repayment. If the debt cannot be resolved, it will come to an end....
Even though sb got hundred millions millions of projects but can't fulfilled the Bursa requirement, going to be delisted is in line with logically circumstance..

@Goodboy,...Does not matter whether SD got AI, cough or big contracts.
Go get the cashflow right and pay coupon and building and other creditors.
That will improve perception and get a better bond rating.
Clear the SIR and account also
