Eagle Vision Invesment

Dear Friends and Fellow Investors,

I was reading Exerpts from Robert Kuok Memoirs and I quote

YES, PRIME MINISTER

Within a year of our launching MISC, Tun Razak, who by then was prime minister, sent for me. Razak said, “I want you to make a fresh issue of 20 per cent of new shares. I’m under pressure because there is not a high enough Malay percentage of shareholding.” I said, “Tun, are you quite serious about this request?” He answered, “Yes, Robert.” So I replied that I would do it. I went back and, with a little bit of arm-twisting, persuaded the board to pass a resolution waiving the rights of existing shareholders to a rights issue (MISC was not yet a public company). Razak allocated all the new shares to government agencies. So, I was diluted to 20 upon 120 – the enlarged base – and Frank became 15 upon 120.

Tun Razak.

One or two years later, Razak again sent for me. He said, “I’m under a lot of pressure at Cabinet meetings. You know, Robert, it’s just the price of your success. MISC is doing well, people are getting envious. But now, instead of giving in to those factions, what I’ve decided is this: Issue another twenty per cent, five per cent to each of four port cities in Malaysia.”

This entailed enlarging the capital base to 140 from the original 100, making the Malaysian Government the largest single shareholder and relegating Kuok Brothers to second position. And he again wanted the shares issued at par – the original issue price.

I said, “Tun, I have always cooperated with you, but it’s getting very difficult. Three, four years have elapsed from formation, but I would be loath to ask you for a premium since we are a growing company. So I will go back and ask the board again to issue shares at par to you. But Tun, can you please promise me that this is the last time?” He smiled and very gently signified his agreement, without saying the words.

Calvin comments:

This has been the norm in Malaysia. Govt wants to take certain percentage in profitable companies & give it to Bumiputras. Examples are Bumi quotas when Shares are at IPO stage. Quotas for Bumi in Universities. Bumi Lots from Every Housing Developers at 7% to 15% Discount. And Especially for Govt Linked Companies like TIME.COM, FABER, DRB AND NOW MRCB.

MRCB, A GOVT LINKED STOCK?

YESSS!

AND IF YOU CHECK THE ORIGINS OF BANK RAKYAT IT COULD BE TRACED TO THE MINSTER OF FINANCE, GOVT OF MALAYSIA

See

Bank Rakyat (Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad) is an Islamic cooperative bank which was established on 28 September 1954 under the Cooperative Ordinance of 1948 (Cooperative Societies Act 1993), following the growth of the cooperative movement in Peninsular Malaysia. The bank is an entity under the control of the Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism since 2004; in 1989 it was controlled by the Ministry of Land and Co-operative Development and the Ministry of Finance and in 2002 changed control to the Central Bank of Malaysiaunder the Development of Financial Institution Act.

So the Secret is Out!

BN GOVT WILL BE GIVING THE LION SHARES OF PROJECT AWARDS TO MRCB!
