Hi Eggplant, Thank you for the question. Let me start by saying i have been a small shareholder for KSL for many years since the time they use to give 2 lunch vouchers every year at KSL Mall. I believe the Ku Brothers and family have done a great job bullding KSL Holdings through their frugal conservative Management style. Today KSL Holdings stand tall among the well capitalised public company with close to MR 500 millions cash and huge landbanks in Johor plus KSL Malls in JB and Klang despite COVID 19 that bankrupted many companies. That being said, I believe the Chairman and Board of Directors can do more to bring the company to higher level. Currently most analysts agreed the KSL Holdings shares are grossly undervalued. With the PE about 5 and NTA od about RM3.50, how can KSL Holding share be at RM1.95 to Rm2 only? This I cannot understand why the Chairman and Board of Directors are not looking at ways to rectify this. Obviously to increasing the PAT is one way, but there are still so many actions can be taken as suggested by many experts by Mr Koon Yew Yin and few others. Policy for declaring Dividend, under what scenario will the company declare a decent dividend like most companies do. Data Center in JB is booming, what is KSL plan with huge Landbank? Any plan to build data centers? Sometimes I think besides, the Quarterly Results Announcement and Annual Shareholders meeting KSL Holding do no other communication to minority shareholders like us. Is the Chairman and Board of Directors thinks that as Majority Shareholders including their family friends etc, they don't need to care about the other 35% shareholder? This is why I believe the minority shareholders must form this Minority Shareholders Oversight Committee to tell the Ku family we are also KSL Holding owners albeit smaller % than them. I hope this can explain. Tks

Hi cpfam230, it is always a good idea to have MSOC, but the question is who has the money and power to champion this initiative? Perhaps, EPF or KWAP or the big mutual fund shall take a more active minority role in the local listco management by fostering shareholder best practices and "penalise" the bad intended listco.

Hi Hulkbuster, tks for the msg. The key objectives of this KSL Minority Shareholders Oversight Committee(KSLMSOC) is: 1) to unite the minority KSL Holdings Shareholders to speak with one strong voice with KSL Chairman and Board of Directors for the key vision to bring KSL Holdings to higher level. 2) To work closely with KSL Chairman and Board of Directors for improvements to KSL Holding Management and Policies which take into conisderation of the Company wellbeing, Shareholders value and look after the interest of Minority shareholders 3) As a reminder to the Ku family and relatives that KSL Holdings is a public listed company with need to look after the interest of approximately 35% Minority Shareholders who are legally owners of the company and will speak up anytime to protect the Company and Shareholders interest.
As a small minority shareholders, I am willing to volunteer to get the ball rolling by getting the list of Minority Shareholders and total Shareholding and write to KSL Chairman and Board of Directors, Bursa Malaysia, and SSM and other legal requirements to form this Committee. If we as Minority shareholders is not willing to put in the effort to safeguard the Company and our interests, who is going to??? Tks Bruce Fam

If the KSL can pay 25% profit as dividend payout, KSL share price can easily hit RM3.00 per share.

so what, continue to be the most underperform johor property among its peer. No dividend despite sitting on huge cash pile, no bonus issue despite retaining earning is 4 folds of share capital. The management just keeping all these in their pocket, shareholder wont benefit even 1c from the company.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan = duit masih dalam company and shareholder get an extra share paper only.
In conclusion, KSL give u a share paper, u go bursa goreng urself.
When the share base enlarged, KSL is more liquid, but share price is likely to drop. Because U need to look for waterfish to buy these dividend reinvested shares (AKA paper share) while KSL top management still busy counting paper MONEY.

Give out dividend (from the company earning), is the only driving force for the share price. OR goreng by ppl.

2Q24 sterling results but noting happening in the share price and not a whisper from the KSL Holding Chairman and Board of Directors, no happiness and no sadness just no f,,,k. Sometimes. As a small shareholders of KSL Holding for many years, i cannot understand the Chairman, Board of Directors and Management. Do they know Public Relations of a Public List Company or they play dumb? I still believe the Ku Brothers are good honest business and very conservative in their Management style hence the way they manage this PUBLIC LISTED COMPANY like their own.company. They reason they get away is because the Minority Shareholders are weak and scattered like a loose bunch of chopsticks. Until minority shareholder unite under the Minority Shareholders Oversight Committee with one voice to query the Chairman and Board of Directors, they will continue to behave like this. Mr Koon latest article compare 9 public companies KSL Record Profits, KSL almost top in everything except KSL is highly undervalued. Why is the Chairman and Board of Directors not care about this? While I believe the Chairman and Board of Directors are all good honest businessmen who has the company Shareholders interest,in mind but I cannot figure why no actions except running the company to make more Profits? Fortunately SC has instructed all Bursa Public Listed companies must have physical meeting instead of hiding behind the Virtual meeting. Next AGM let meet the Chairman and Board of Director face to face and ask them why?
Generally speaking, I am not refering to KSL but general discussion I google or CHATGPT why a Public List Company want to keep the share undervalue? The possible reasons:
1) Company want to buy back the cheap shares at a discount
2) Risk of Takeovers: Bidders who seek to takeover a company by obtaining a majority of shares can more easily afford to do so when the stock is trading at a lower price
3) Attracting retail investors. Lower share prices can make stock more appealing to individual investors who may be deterred by high prices. This can broaden the shareholders base and potentially increse demand for the stock
There may be other resons anyone esle can add?

Dividend reinvestment share can sell in open market, it is almost same like cash dividend, or you can say is bonus issue, and at least we can get something rather than nothing

KSL can through dividend reinvestment plan to resume dividend policy to payout 30% and yet still conserve cash hoard to continue land acquisition for future more development project. The more project launched min future will in turn increase profitability.

These is win-win cycle and gradually enlarge company market capitalization through increase new share number issue via dividend reinvestment and higher market share price.

Good idea to have a casino in Forest City since it is already a duty free island, and special financial zone with low taxes.

Proximity and ease of travelling from Singapore will lure more Singaporean to have more thrill and better entertainment in JB. Malaysia already got one in Genting, no harm having another one near to Singapore. Just need to charge a day-membership fee (say rm 100 or 200) for Malaysian to gamble there, and of course Muslim are out of bound.
