KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court
here allowed an application by
MIC president Datuk Seri Dr S
Subramaniam and seven others
to strike out a suit related to an
alleged conspiracy to topple former president Datuk G Palanivel
last year.
Judge Datuk Yeoh Wee Siam
made the decision in chambers
yesterday after hearing submissions from all the eight plaintiffs
and eight defendants.
Senior federal counsel Datuk
Amarjeet Singh who represented
two of the defendants — Registrar
of Societies Malaysia (RoS) director-general Datuk Mohamad Razin
Abdullah and RoS officer Akmal
Yahya — when met said the court
had dismissed the suit on grounds
that all the plaintiffs had no locus
standi to file the suit.
He said the court also ordered
all the plaintiffs to pay cost of
RM15,000 to all the defendants.
On Feb 5, former MIC secretary-general AK Ramalingam and
seven others filed the suit against
Subramaniam and seven others
over an alleged conspiracy to topple Palanivel last year.
The other plaintiffs were V Ganesh, Datuk Henry Benedict Asirvatham, M Sathiyamurthu, George
Alexander Fernandez, R M Prabu,
R Sithambaran Pillay and V Rajoo.
They named Subramaniam, Datuk S Vigneswaran, Datuk Jaspal
Singh, T Mohan, A Sakthivel, lawyer
V Vasanthi, Mohamad Razin and
Akmal as defendants. — Bernama
May on brink of
becoming UK PM
Set to be confirmed as UK’s Conservative leader
LONDON: Theresa May (pic) is the
only remaining candidate to be the
new leader of Britain’s ruling Conservative Party and a formal process
will now take place to confirm her
in the role, the chairman of a party
committee running the leadership
contest said yesterday.
Graham Brady made the
statement minutes after Andrea
Leadsom, who had been running
against May, announced she was
pulling out.
Once confirmed as Conservative leader, May will automatically
become the new prime minister,
replacing outgoing leader David
Cameron.
Prime Minister David Cameron
said he would resign tomorrow,
paving the way for May to take over
the job the same day.
Cameron said he expected to
chair his last cabinet meeting today
and then take questions in parliament for around 30 minutes from
1100 GMT tomorrow.
“After that I expect to go to
(Buckingham Palace) and offer
my resignation,” he told reporters
outside his office in Downing Street.
“So we will have a new prime
minister in that building behind
me by Wednesday evening.”
May, pledged yesterday to put
government at the service of “ordinary working people”, laying claim
to the centre ground in an effort
to heal rifts exposed by a referendum vote to leave the European
Union (EU).
May, 59, who could be appointed
prime minister after her rival Andrea Leadsom quit the Conservative party leadership race, moved
quickly to ease concerns that she
would not deliver on Brexit after
she campaigned to stay in the EU.
After six years in charge of the
police and internal security services, May also sought to soften
her image by saying she would try
to tackle the fears revealed by the
referendum campaign and try to
give people “more opportunity”.
She delivered the speech promising to narrow the pay gap between
bosses and workers and produce
a fairer economy just hours before
Leadsom announced she was quitting the race because of what she
described as a lack of sufficient
support. — Reuters
Boeing sees US$5.9 trillion airplane market
BY JULIE JO HNS S O N
CHICAGO: Airlines will order new
planes valued at US$5.9 trillion
(RM23.54 trillion) over the next
two decades to keep pace with
rising air travel as more people
take to the skies in emerging nations such as China, according to
a Boeing Co forecast.
Looking past recent economic
turmoil from Brexit to a commodities crash that has spooked aerospace investors, Boeing boosted
its long-term forecast 4.1% from a
year earlier, predicting total sales
of 39,620 jetliners across the industry.
“The aviation sector will continue to see long-term growth with
the commercial fleet doubling in
size,” despite the recent events af-
fecting financial markets, Randy
Tinseth, vice president of marketing for Boeing’s commercial
airplanes division, said in a statement. The plane-maker expects
passenger traffic to grow 4.8% a
year, close to the sector’s historic
5% average.
About US$3 trillion of the projected orders will come from single-aisle aircraft such as Boeing’s
737-800 and Airbus Group SE’s
A320, according to Boeing’s commercial market outlook. About
28,140 new airplanes will be needed in that segment, with low-cost
carriers and emerging markets
continuing to drive growth.
The US plane-maker said it
also expects to see a wave of widebody orders in the next decade
as airlines replace the twin-aisle
jets that ferry travellers across
the Pacific and on other longrange routes. The company sees
demand shifting from the largest
long-haul jets, such as its 747 jetliner, to smaller aircraft.
Boeing expects sales to be concentrated in the 200- to 300-seat
segment of the market, where the
company sees demand for 5,100
wide-body jets. The plane-maker
is studying a new family of aircraft
targeting much of this segment,
which it has dubbed the middle
of the market.
The manufacturer lowered a
forecast of medium wide-body
orders by 1.4% to 3,470 from a year
earlier, and trimmed anticipated
sales of very large aircraft such as
the Airbus A380 super-jumbo by
1.9% to 530 sales. — Bloomberg

Bill on law on contempt
tabled in Singapore
parliament
SINGAPORE: A new Bill that
seeks to put the current law on
contempt in statutory form has
been introduced in parliament
in Singapore. The Business
Times report said the existing
law on contempt is contained
in judgements in various cases, also known as case law. The
new Administration of Justice
(Protection) Bill will set out
the law on contempt of court
in statutory form, to provide
greater clarity and certainty, the
ministry of law said yesterday.
The move to codify the existing
law on contempt also comes as
it is the only criminal offence
not written in the statute today.
Engie opens first Asian
research lab in Singapore
SINGAPORE: French energy giant Engie yesterday opened its
first Asian research centre focusing on green energy in Singapore, as the group, formerly known as GDF Suez, shifts
towards renewable energy in
a three-year strategy. The Business Times report said Engie
Lab Singapore will focus on
three areas it identified as key
challenges for the Southeast
Asian region: decentralised
energy systems, including micro-grids, industrial energy efficiency and gas technologies.
This is especially as Southeast
Asia comprises many small
islands which use diesel for
power generation.
S&P 500 surges to
all-time high
NEW YORK: The S&P 500 shot
to an all-time intraday record
in early trade yesterday, as Wall
Street shrugged off worries over
slow global growth and volatile markets. About 20 minutes
into trade, the S&P 500 was at
2,138.79, about four points above
the record set more than one year
ago. The Dow Jones Industrial
Average rose 0.5% to 18,244.43,
while the tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index climbed 0.7% to
4,991.57. The gains in the US extended last Friday’s momentum,
when a much better-than-expected June jobs report lifted
US stocks by about 1.5%. — AFP

Petronas ends Berantai
contract with Petrofac
Cessation also positive to SapuraKencana as it could use proceeds to pare down debt
BY C H ON G JI N HU N
& G HO C H EE Y UA N
KUALA LUMPUR: National oil company Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) is taking back control to develop
the Berantai gas field, which is located
off Terengganu, from UK oil services
provider Petrofac Energy Developments Sdn Bhd and SapuraKencana
Petroleum Bhd after five years.
In a statement yesterday, Petronas
said the cessation of the risk service
contract (RSC) contract will allow it
to minimise the project’s long-term
value erosion and optimise the development and production activities
in Malaysia, in line with its efforts to
reduce costs and increase the efficiency of its operations.
Petronas had earlier announced
that it aimed to cut up to RM50 billion
in operating and capital expenditure
over the next four years in the face
of sliding global oil prices. Oil has
slipped from about US$50 (RM199.5)
a barrel to below US$45 in the last
month. Brent crude, the international
oil benchmark, traded at US$46.26
yesterday.
In separate filings with the exchanges yesterday, London-listed
Petrofac Ltd and Bursa Malaysia-listed SapuraKencana said a mutual
agreement among the three parties
was reached to terminate the Berantai RSC.
“With the cessation of the RSC,
which will be effective on Sept 30, Petronas will reimburse all outstanding
capital and operational expenditures
to the contractors by June 2017. As part
of the arrangement, the ownership of
Berantai floating production, storage
and offloading (FPSO) vessel will be
transferred to Petronas,” they added.

preserving the long-term value of the
project. Together with our partner, we
have managed to operate the facilities over the past four years safely,”
said SapuraKencana president and
group chief executive officer Tan Sri
Shahril Shamsuddin in a separate
statement yesterday.
Meanwhile, Petrofac said it will use
the cash proceeds for general corporate purposes. The company added
that as a result of the cessation of the
RSC and the FPSO transaction, it will
incur a small impairment charge.
On Jan 31, 2011, Petronas had
awarded the RSC for its Berantai
field to Petrofac to lead the development and production of petroleum from the Berantai field. It was the
first RSC awarded by Petronas and
had marked the start of development
for the country’s marginal oil and gas
(O&G) fields. Petronas remains the
project owner, while Petrofac has
a 50% stake in the RSC, alongside
local partners — SapuraKencana’s
wholly-owned subsidiaries Kencana
Energy Sdn Bhd and Sapura Energy
Ventures Sdn Bhd — both of which
hold a 25% equity interest.
The Berantai partners were to de-

velop the field and subsequently operate the field for a period of seven
years after first gas production. When
fully operational, the field was expected to produce about 150 million
standard cu ft of gas per day (mmscfd)
and 10,000 barrels of oil.
In November 2012, Petronas announced that natural gas production from the Berantai field was successfully brought on stream on Oct
20, 2012. The gas is processed at the
Berantai FPSO and exported to the
existing onshore terminal at Kerteh.
The full field development, excluding
delivery of the FPSO, was anticipated
to require capital investment of approximately US$800 million, of which
Petrofac’s share was 50%.
SapuraKencana shares closed up
one sen or 0.72% at RM1.40 yesterday
as the market was largely neutral on
the news. Its market capitalisation
stood at RM8.33 billion. The stock
has slid steadily for more than a year
in response to the slump in oil prices, and reached an all-time low of
RM1.32 on June 27.
JF Apex Research oil and gas analyst Lee Cherng Wee said SapuraKencana will be able to recover its invest-
ment and reduce overall operating
costs following the disbursement
from Petronas.
“This could also boost cash flow
and gearing when the money comes
in June next year,” he told The Edge
Financial Daily in an email reply.
As at April 30, 2016, SapuraKencana’s total borrowings stood at
RM17.34 billion versus its cash and
cash equivalents of RM2.34 billion.
Its net-debt-to-equity ratio stood at
1.3 times for the financial year ended
Jan 31, 2016 (FY16).
An analyst who declined to be
named said the cessation is positive
to SapuraKencana’s balance sheet
as the company could use the cash
proceeds to pare down its debt.
“Under the current operating environment, cash conservation is very
important for any company so that
they can look out for new opportunities,” said the analyst, estimating that
SapuraKencana may need another
four years to recoup its investment
in the Berantai field should the contract continue.
Another analyst believed that the
termination could be due to the low
oil price environment. “Brownfield
projects come at a higher production
cost. At the current oil price of US$45
to US$50 per barrel, it is either the
company did not make money or
made razor thin profits from the oil
being produced.”
A third analyst said his FY17 earnings forecast for SapuraKencana has
factored in the termination of the Berantai field as the management had
indicated it during a recent results
briefing. SapuraKencana slipped to
a net loss of RM791.56 million for
FY16 from RM1.43 billion in FY15,
due to impairment provisions on
O&G assets totalling RM1.14 billion
and deposit on acquisition written
off worth RM172.5 million.
Press Metal plans share split, bonus issue
BY MEENA L A KSHA NA
KUALA LUMPUR: Press Metal Bhd
has proposed a share split and bonus issue as part of an internal reorganisation that will see a new entity
assume its listed status.
The country’s largest integrated
aluminium producer said the share
split involves the subdivision of its
50 sen shares into two shares of 25
sen each. This will be followed by a
bonus issue of up to 1.154 million
new subdivided shares to be offered
on the basis of two bonus shares
for every five subdivided shares.
The exercise will see the company’s enlarged issued share capital
increase to 3.6 billion shares worth
RM910.19 million under a minimum
scenario, or up to 4.04 billion shares
worth RM1.01 billion, it said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia yesterday.
Press Metal said the internal reorganisation proposes the assumption
of the listing status of Press Metal by
an entity tentatively called Newco.
The company will be incorporated on the basis of one Newco
share for every one subdivided
share held.
Press Metal has also proposed
a warrants exchange of all the outstanding 2011/2019 Warrants C in
Press Metal with new warrants in
Newco on a one-for-one basis.
Press Metal said the internal
reorganisation will allow the company to continue as an investment
holding company and operational
company carrying out its existing
businesses, therefore giving the
company leeway to expand into
new businesses and explore investment opportunities.
“The creation of a separate listed
entity allows Newco to acquire or expand to new businesses or explore
investment opportunities which
can be held separately from Press
Metal’s operational activities,” the
company said.
“In addition, the proposed internal reorganisation will be able to
separate Newco (as the listed entity)
from its operating entities and safeguard Newco from direct operating
risks, such as claims and litigation in
connection with the Newco Group’s
operations,” it added.
Under the minimum scenario,
the company’s net gearing would increase to 1.82 times from 1.76 times
after all proposals are conducted,
while under a maximum scenario,
its net gearing would decrease to
1.68 times from 1.76 times.
Press Metal’s 80%-owned subsidiary Press Metal Bintulu Sdn
Bhd suffered a fire incident at its
smelting plant in Sarawak’s Samalaju Industrial Park in May last year,
damaging a few of the company’s
smelting pots.
The company received an interim claim of RM70 million from its
insurer in April this year.
Press Metal also had to contend
with plummeting aluminium prices
last year, which dented its earnings.
Press Metal shares closed three
sen or 0.77% higher at RM3.94 yesterday, with a market capitalisation
of RM5.13 billion.
GHL Systems
partners Philippine
bank to offer
e-payment services
to merchants
BY G H O C H E E Y UA N
KUALA LUMPUR: Payment service
provider GHL Systems Bhd has
teamed up with Rizal Commercial
Banking Corp (RCBC), a leading
bank in the Philippines, to provide
e-payment services to merchants
in the Philippines for credit-card
transactions.
In a statement yesterday, GHL
Systems said its wholly-owned subsidiary GHL Systems Philippines
Inc (GHL Philippines) had signed
an agreement to provide transaction payment acquisition services
to RCBC through its servicing entity
RCBC Bankard Services Corp.
This new service will enable GHL
Philippines to directly contract with
merchants to provide credit-card
payment services with RCBC acting
as the underlying bank that will obtain authorisation for the credit-card
transactions.
GHL Systems group chief executive officer Kanagaraj Lorenz views
transaction payment acquisition
partnership as a game changer.
“There will be many, many more
small merchants who will be accepting card payments in this country,”
he said in the statement.
“The Philippines is an important
market for GHL Group and we are
thrilled to partner with RCBC as the
acquiring bank on this transaction
payment acquisition initiative. RCBC
Bankard is one of the pioneers of the
credit card industry in the Philippines
and is well-respected by the business
community here,” Kanagaraj added.
Since its soft launch in mid-May
2016 to date, GHL Philippines has
contracted with 1,000 merchants
for the transaction payment acquisition service. These merchants
come from a diverse range of business segments including consumer retail, food and beverage, and
services such as lodging, medical,
dental and beauty outlets.
Both GHL Philippines and RCBC
said they are poised to take a “significant market share” of the small- and
medium-sized merchants acquiring
business in the Philippines.
“The Philippines with its 102 million population holds great potential
for debit- and credit-card payments
growth. There are presently only an
estimated 180,000 EDC (electronic
draft capture) and PoS (point-of-sale)
terminals servicing an estimated 10
million credit cards, and 25 million
debit cards issued to consumers,”
they said.
Last month, Kanagaraj was reported as saying that GHL Systems
expects its earnings in the current
financial year ending Dec 31, 2016
(FY16) to be stronger than the previous year on the back of stronger
transaction payment acquisition and
web payment service growth.
In FY15, GHL Systems posted a
58% year-on-year jump in net profit to RM10.34 million, while revenue rose 28% to RM211.38 million,
driven by better performance across
all segments including transaction
payment acquisition. The Philippine
market accounted for 12% of its revenue in FY15.

See you in court,
1MDB tells IPIC,
Aabar over claim
Says it is confident of its legal position
BY MEENA L A KSHANA
KUALA LUMPUR: 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) said it
agreed yesterday to the request
for arbitration (RFA) filed by International Petroleum Investment Company (IPIC) and Aabar
Investments PJS (Aabar) in the
London Court of International
Arbitration.
In a statement, 1MDB said it is
confident of its legal position and
has submitted a formal and “robust” response to the RFA through
its legal counsel, Weil Gotshal &
Manges (Weil Gotshal), a specialist in international litigation.
“1MDB reiterates that, notwithstanding the dispute with IPIC, it
will continue to implement the
rationalisation plan and remain
able to honour its current debt
obligations,” it added.
1MDB said it paid the RM1.579
million interest coupon on the
RM2.4 billion Bandar Malaysia
sukuk due 2024 last month, and
also made a scheduled coupon
payment amounting to RM143.75
million on its RM5 billion 5.75%
Islamic Medium Term Notes due
2039 in May.
On June 15, Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund IPIC and Aabar
submitted an RFA to the London
Court of International Arbitration to claim for US$6.5 billion
(RM26.7 billion) from 1MDB.
The RFA is in regard to IPIC’s
claim that 1MDB and Minister of
Finance Inc (MoF Inc) have failed
to perform their contractual obligations under a binding term
sheet (BTS) dated May 28, 2015.
To recap, IPIC and Aabar
inked the BTS after 1MDB realised it needed help to settle the
debts it had taken on to buy its
power assets. Under the agreement, IPIC provided 1MDB US$1
billion cash.
It also agreed to pay all interest due under two 1MDB bonds
worth a collective US$3.5 billion
(due 2022), and to take over liabilities for payment obligations
under the bonds.
In exchange for IPIC’s guarantee on the bonds, 1MDB was
obliged to make collateral payments to IPIC’s subsidiary Aabar
by Dec 31, 2015.
1MDB contended it had made
the collateral payments — US$855
million, US$933 million and
US$295 million as security deposits and other guarantees — between 2012 and 2014, as well as a
US$1.4 billion security deposit to
an entity called Aabar Investments
PJS registered in the British Virgin
Islands (Aabar BVI).
But IPIC said in April this year
that Aabar BVI was not a unit of
IPIC, and that it had never received the sums from 1MDB. Following that, 1MDB said it might
have been a victim of fraud.
Subsequently, 1MDB defaulted on the interest payments of
the two 1MDB bonds; one was
due in April and another in early
May. The defaults resulted in IPIC
assuming the interest payments
totalling US$102.4 million as the
co-guarantor of the bonds.
‘IGP should focus on nabbing 1MDB
wrongdoers, not whistle-blowers’
BY MEENA L A KSHANA
KUALA LUMPUR: Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Khalid
Abu Bakar should be focusing on
putting those responsible for the
massive misappropriation of 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB)
funds behind bars instead of penalising whistle-blowers, an opposition lawmaker said.
In a statement yesterday, Petaling Jaya Utara member of parliament Tony Pua said if the leaked
Auditor-General’s (AG) Report by whistle-blower
site Sarawak Report is
genuine, it is more important for the IGP to
“get to the bottom of
the scam and put the
crooks behind bars”.
He was commenting on reports quoting
Khalid on Saturday that
the police will probe Sarawak Report under the
Official Secrets Act
1972 (OSA) for
leaking the
classified
AG’s Report on 1MDB after they
verify that it is a genuine document.
Last Wednesday, Sarawak Report claimed to have obtained a
copy of the AG’s Report, which is
classified under the OSA. It also
published alleged details from the
report last Friday.
“Regardless, if the leaked AG’s
Report by Sarawak Report, which exposed the billions defrauded and covered up by 1MDB officers, is indeed
genuine, Malaysians are shocked that
the IGP isn’t at all interested in getting
to the bottom of the scam
and putting the crooks
behind bars,” said Pua.
“The IGP would
do well to remember
that police officers are

sworn to protect Malaysians against
criminals and not instead to cover
up for crooks,” he added.
Pua said Khalid’s statement is
shocking as after months since the
Public Accounts Committee tabled
its report on 1MDB to Parliament demanding investigations into former
1MDB chief executive officer Datuk
Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi and
others involved in the 1MDB issue,
the police have yet to gain access to
the detailed AG’s Report on 1MDB.
“Has the police been so lackadaisical in its investigations into 1MDB that
it hasn’t already obtained a copy of
the AG’s Report on 1MDB?” he asked.
Pua said although the AG’s Report has been classified under the
OSA, it is not a national security
document.
“It is a document which audited
1MDB for tens of billions of ringgit
lost and has been exposed as such
by Sarawak Report. It is hence a
crucial evidentiary report against
the masterminds behind the 1MDB
scam and any attempt by the IGP to
suppress the evidence will pervert
the course of justice in Malaysia,”
he added.

Southern Steel terminates RM427m
agreement with Italian plant maker
KUALA LUMPUR: Southern Steel
Bhd has terminated the services
of Italian plant maker Danieli & C
Officine Meccaniche SpA for the
design, manufacture and supply
of a thin slab casting unit used
in the production of hot rolled
coils (HRCs), claiming the latter
has failed to fulfil its contractual
obligations.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia
yesterday, the steelmaker said its
wholly-owned unit Southern HRC
Sdn Bhd (SHRC) had terminated
the agreement last Thursday. The
thin slab casting unit was to be fed
directly to a twin steckel mill for
the production of HRCs.
The original agreement was
inked on June 16, 2011. The
amount involved in the contract
is approximately RM427 million,
said Southern Steel.
“SHRC has terminated the contract in accordance with the terms
of the said contract. Danieli has
failed to remedy and resolve the
issues set out in the notice of termination, which constitutes a major
default and failure by Danieli to
fulfil its fundamental obligations
under the contract,” it said.
Southern Steel added all disputes arising from such termination
shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber
of Commerce in Singapore.
Meanwhile, the termination
requires an assessment of the
carrying value of the project.
“Pending the assessment, the
company is unable to determine
the extent of the financial impact,
if any, at this juncture,” it said.
Southern Steel said the termination does not affect the other
core businesses of the group.
Shares in Southern Steel rose
three sen or 2.94% to settle at
RM1.05 yesterday, with a market
value of RM440.39 million.
Borneo Oil suggests better 1Q, goldprice rally as reasons behind UMA
BY B IL LY TO H
KUALA LUMPUR: Borneo Oil
Bhd, which saw a sharp rise in
the trading volume of its shares
in the past two days, pointed to
its improved first-quarter performance in the three months ended
April 30, 2016 (1QFY17), and the
recent rally in the prices of gold
globally following the Brexit vote,
as possible reasons behind the
unusual market activity (UMA).
In its 1QFY17, it reported a net
profit of RM10.7 million, more
than 20 times its 1QFY16 net profit
of RM525,000, thanks to improved
performances from both its fastfood and franchise, and mining,
energy and related divisions, as
well as its property, management
and operation division.
Other than the above, it is unaware of any corporate developments, rumour or report that
could have led to the sharp rise in
the trading volume of its shares,
it said in its reply yesterday to the
UMA query issued by Bursa Malaysia earlier on the same day.
Last Friday, Borneo Oil’s share
price rose 8.82% to 18.5 sen from
17 sen in its previous close, after 162.57 million shares were
traded.
Though its share price rose
as much as 5.4% to an intraday
high of 19.5 sen yesterday, it settled unchanged at the end of the
trading hours after 154.5 million
shares changed hands.
In comparison, Borneo Oil’s

19.3 million.

AirAsia X to restart
London flights ‘soon’
Reopening of KL-London route on the cards, says Fernandes
BY CHESTER TAY
KUALA LUMPUR: AirAsia X Bhd
(AAX), the long-haul, low-cost
affiliate of AirAsia Bhd, is going to fly to London “soon”, said
AirAsia co-founder and group
chief executive officer Tan Sri
Tony Fernandes in a Facebook
post yesterday.
In November 2014, AAX said
it was looking to revive flights
to London as early as 2015. The
airline suspended all flights to
Europe, including London and
Paris, in March 2012, due to high
operating costs. It launched the
service between Kuala Lumpur
and London in March 2009.
Fernandes, who is prolific on
social media, had tweeted then
that “the reopening of KL-London
is definitely on the cards”.
“KL-London is the most wanted route for AAX, and we will deliver it. I am quite sure,” he added.
Meanwhile, Bloomberg quoted
people familiar with the matter
as saying that Airbus Group SE
is poised to win an order for as
many as 100 jetliners from AirAsia.
The deal may be announced as
early as today at the Farnborough
Airshow in the UK, said the people, who asked not to be named because the discussions are private.
The purchase would consist likely of
A321neo narrow-body aircraft, which
have a list price of US$125.7 million (RM501.54 million) apiece, the
Bloomberg report said yesterday.
The low-cost carrier will use
at least some of the narrow-body
planes to provide stepped-up
service to India, it reported one
of the people as saying.
AAX shares closed one sen or
2.63% higher at 39 sen yesterday,
bringing a market capitalisation
of RM1.62 billion.
FARNBOROUGH: AirAsia Bhd is
studying a dual listing in Hong Kong,
part of plans to become a pan-Asian
low-cost airline player as it moves
towards setting up a joint venture
(JV) in China, people familiar with
the matter said on Sunday.
It is simultaneously looking for
more aircraft to meet strong demand
in North Asia and elsewhere, the
people said on the eve of Britain’s
Farnborough Airshow.
Asia’s largest low-cost airline
group, which already has affiliates
across Southeast Asia, aims to form
the venture with the backing of a
China state-owned enterprise to
help capture traffic from fast-growing secondary and tertiary cities.
Its co-founder and group chief
executive officer Tan Sri Tony Fernandes referred to the potential dual
listing without naming a location
and hinted at a potential new aircraft order on Twitter on Sunday.
“Looking at more ancillary [revenues], more capacity and [a] dual
listing,” he said. The airline group is
talking to China banks and potential shareholders, including China
Everbright Bank, one source said.
This comes as AirAsia rebounds
from recent turbulence due to lower oil prices, and as Fernandes and
his partner put in additional investment in the business. Its share price
fell sharply in 2015, amid negative
reports about its finances, but has
rallied sharply since then.
A Hong Kong listing could help
raise the company’s profile, coming
on the heels of the flotation there of
aviation lessor BOC Aviation, and
allow it to raise new capital.
Reporting a near sixfold jump in
quarterly profit in May, Fernandes
said demand from China travellers
had recovered. The airline also sees
broad demand in markets like South
Korea and Japan, and has said it is
bullish on India.
Fernandes has signalled that he
aims to make AirAsia a low-cost
giant with one-stop connections
mainly from its Malaysian base.
“It is a huge business opportunity: [to] use low cost to build another Dubai,” a person involved in the
plans said, referring to the leading
Middle East transport hub.
In mid-June, former senior AirAsia executive Kathleen Tan, seen
as one of Fernandes’s most trusted
executives, rejoined the carrier to
head its North Asia operations. This
includes responsibility for building
the airline’s market and brand in
China, Hong Kong, Macau, Japan,
South Korea and Taiwan.
China contributes nearly 40% of
the group’s revenues, but Fernandes
said when appointing Tan that there
“is still a lot to do in North Asia ... an
important long-haul market”.
After a false start, the AirAsia Japan JV is expected to begin operations in the second half of this year.
The company’s longer-term goal
is to have a JV in either Hong Kong
or China, said a second source familiar with the company’s thinking.
AirAsia has been adding more pointto-point services from Malaysia and
Thailand to North Asia.
The goal, added this source, is to
use AirAsia’s short-haul and longhaul units to connect passengers
from North Asia to Southeast Asia
and Australia.
AirAsia has, however, been involved in a spat with Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd, operator of
Kuala Lumpur International Airport,
over the design of a new budget terminal that began operations in 2014.
The AirAsia group said it accounts
for 97% of operations at the terminal.
The low-cost goliath was a launch
customer in 2014 for the revamped
A330neo and could buy more Airbus
planes as early as this week’s Farnborough Airshow, sources familiar
with the matter said.
People familiar with the situation said the two companies were in
discussions about aircraft orders on
the eve of the show. Both companies
declined to comment. — Reuters
DiGi’s 2Q earnings down 9.4%,
pays 5.4 sen dividend
KUALA LUMPUR: DiGi.Com
Bhd saw its net profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016
(2QFY16) fall 9.4% to RM420.61
million, or 5.41 sen per share, due
to unrealised foreign exchange
and derivatives losses of RM12.72
million. It posted a net profit of
RM464.36 million or 5.97 sen per
share a year ago.
Revenue also came in 3.9% lower at RM1.66 billion, from RM1.72
billion in 2QFY15.
Despite the lower quarterly
earnings, DiGi declared a second
interim dividend of 5.4 sen per
share amounting to RM420 million
for FY16, payable on Sept 30. This
brings its year-to-date dividend
to 10.5 sen per share, compared
with 12 sen per share for the same
period last year.
For the cumulative six-month
period (1HFY16), DiGi posted
a 13.1% decline in net profit to
RM819.65 million or 10.54 sen per
share, from RM943.58 million or
12.14 sen per share in 1HFY15, due
to aggressive high-speed data quota bundling and heavy discounts.
Revenue stood at RM3.31 billion,
down 5.7% from RM3.51 billion.
In a statement yesterday, DiGi
said its earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) fell 6.7% year-onyear (y-o-y) to RM735 million in
2QFY16, while its Ebitda margin
slid 1.3 percentage points to 44%.
Its service revenue dropped
2% y-o-y to RM1.56 billion, even
though its active Internet subscribers rose to eight million along an
increase in smartphone penetration to 62%, while 4G LTE subscribers grew to 3.3 million, from
1.3 million a year ago.
Internet revenue made up a
total of 36.1% of service revenue
for 2QFY16, and continued to grow
as smartphone adoption rose to
62% and active Internet subscribers up to 64.5% of the total sub-

scriber base. Average revenue per
user (Arpu) was steady at RM42,
backed by 12.3 million subscribers, it added.
Despite being challenged by
the industry’s aggressive Internet
quotas and heavy discounts, DiGi’s postpaid Arpu strengthened
to RM82 on a larger subscriber
base, while prepaid Arpu dipped
marginally to RM34, on the back
of relatively stable prepaid subscribers.
DiGi chief executive officer Albern Murty said during 2QFY16,
the group intensified its network
service quality and coverage,
where its 4G LTE and 4G LTE-A
network footprint now stands at
76% and 34% of the population
nationwide respectively.
While upfront spectrum fees
for the allocated 900MHz and
1800MHz band have yet to be announced, DiGi said it believes the
“fee structure would be rational”.
“For FY16, we aim to sustain
[our] service revenue and Ebitda margin at [the] 2015 [levels],
while managing capital expenditure within 13% to 14% of service
revenue with increased leverage
on global and collaboration synergies to drive efficient and scalable
investments,” it added.
LPI’s 2Q net profit surges 148%
on equity disposal gains
BY TA N S IE W MUN G
KUALA LUMPUR: LPI Capital Bhd
achieved sterling results in the second quarter ended June 30, 2016
(2QFY16), as its net profit surged
148% to RM212.62 million, from
RM85.74 million a year ago, with
its investment holding segment
chalking up gains of RM150.4
million on disposal of equity investments.
Its board declared a first interim dividend of 25 sen per share,
amounting to RM83 million,
which is payable on Aug 3, according to its Bursa filings.
Revenue for 2QFY16 increased
11.33% year-on-year (y-o-y) to
RM339.25 million, from RM304.73,
largely contributed by revenue
from the general insurance segment, which improved 10.9%
to RM337.3 million. Profit-wise,
it grew 29.1% to RM82.1 million, from RM63.6 million in
2QFY15.
Underwriting profit for the
quarter rose by 34.6% y-o-y to
RM67.7 million, on the back of
a 7.1% improvement in its combined ratio to 66.5%, due to improved performance in all its underwriting components.
For the first half ended June 30,
2016 (1HFY16), the group’s net
profit jumped 94.5% to RM278.01
million, from RM142.94 million
in 1HFY15, while revenue gained
10.62% to RM659.81 million, from
RM596.46 million.
In a statement, its group chairman and founder Tan Sri Teh
Hong Piow said LPI’s outstanding first-half performance was
partly due to realisation of gains of
RM150.4 million from the group’s
equity investment in the second
quarter.
He also said Lonpac Insurance Bhd, LPI’s wholly-owned
insurance subsidiary, had put up
a commendable performance.
Teh is confident that LPI will
continue to report favourable performance for 2HFY16.

Foreign selling
on Bursa halts
after 10 weeks

Foreigners bought RM93.5 million last week — MIDF Research
KUALA LUMPUR : Foreigners
turned net buyers on Bursa Malaysia last week, albeit marginally,
after 10 successive weeks of selling,
according to MIDF Research.
In his weekly fund flow report
yesterday, MIDF Research head
Zulkifli Hamzah said over the three
trading days, foreign investors
made RM93.5 million net purchase
on Bursa, after a negligible RM1.4
million selling the week prior. The
estimates are based on transactions
in the open market which excluded
off-market deals. Bursa was closed
last Wednesday and Thursday for
Hari Raya holidays.
“We note that the buying momentum from the second half of
the preceding week was carried
forward as trading commenced
on Monday (yesterday), in which
foreigners loaded up RM168.8 million. It was the third highest daily
buying since April 1 this year.
“However, the buying momentum halted on the eve of the
two-day holiday, in which foreign
investors reduced their holding
marginally by RM8.3 million during the morning session,” he said.
Zulkifli added that foreign selling
resumed when Bursa reopened last
Friday as foreigners sold another

from the negative territory. As of
last Friday, the year-to-date cumulative flow into Bursa amounted
to an estimated RM58.4 million,
up from RM35.1 million the week
prior,” he noted.
In retrospect, foreigners had offloaded RM19.5 billion and RM6.9
billion in 2015 and 2014 respectively.
Zulkifli said despite the intermittent trading days last week, foreign
participation rate managed to edge
up to RM906.5 million from prior
week’s RM811.7 million.
He said it was the first time it
rose above the RM900 million level
after one month of moderate trading at less than RM900 million.
Zulkifli said local institutions sold
RM87 million on Bursa last week,
their first net selling in 11 weeks.
“Meanwhile, its participation
rate declined further to RM1.41 billion from prior week’s RM1.76 billion, amid the short trading week.
“Retail buyers continued to be
net sellers for the third week in a
row. They sold marginally at RM6.5
million. Meanwhile, their participation rate slowed down to RM384.8
million,” he said.
Commenting on the region, Zulkifli said fatigue hit global equity

KUALA LUMPUR: The UK’s withdrawal from the European Union
(EU) (Brexit) won’t have a significant credit impact on Asia-Pacific
(Apac) sovereigns, as the region’s
direct trade linkage with the UK is
generally limited, but dependence
on external finance may cause
some to be vulnerable to volatility that may arise, said Moody’s
Investors Service.
The rating agency said this in a
report entitled “Sovereigns — Brexit and Asia-Pacific: Limited Direct
Credit Impact; Some Sovereigns Exposed to Market Volatility”, in which
it forecast announcements relating to
Brexit could potentially trigger market volatility in the coming months.
“While not our baseline expectation, a shift in portfolio and/or

Asia-Pacific markets would hurt
growth, especially in countries
where fiscal and monetary policy

Among Apac countries with
large current account deficits, Mongolia relies in part on private sector financing flows. Further, both

Genting rebrands German yards, invests €100m
BY GHO C H EE YUAN
KUALA LUMPUR: Cruise ship operator Genting Hong Kong Ltd,
17.8% owned by Genting Bhd, said
the three shipyards in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany that
it acquired in April this year will be
named MV Werften. It will spend
€100 million (RM439.85 million)
to turn MV Werften into one of
the most efficient and innovative
cruise shipbuilders in Europe.
This follows the completion of
the acquisition of the three shipyards in Wismar, Warnemunde
and Stralsund.
In a statement yesterday, Genting HK said MV Werften will be
managed in Wismar and will focus on building large new ships.
Lloyd Werft, another shipyard
located in Bremerhaven, Germany that Genting HK bought last
September, will focus on its prior
business of repairs, conversion and
building of mega yachts.
Genting Group chairman and
chief executive officer Tan Sri Lim
Kok Thay said the group will invest
€100 million to make MV Werften
into one of the world’s most modern and efficient cruise shipyards.
The capital investment, Lim
added, is for a thin plate laser
welding line, a cabin module factory, a new covered section block
building hall, the modernisation
of manufacturing control systems
and new executive and employee
offices and facilities.
Lim also announced the appointment of Jarmo Laakso as MV
Werften's managing director.
Laakso has more than 35 years’
experience in building passenger
ships, including the latest generation of mega cruise ships, including the Quantum of the Seas.
He has a unique yard and owner
perspective as he has worked for
Meyer Werft from 1998 to 2004 and
for the Royal Caribbean International from 2005 to 2015.
Genting HK also said MV Werften
will deliver the first of four luxury
Crystal River ships in 2017, the first
of a series of 20,000 gross tonne Crystal Endeavor Class polar expedition
yachts in 2018 and the first of a series
of 201,000 gross tonne Star Cruises
Global Class cruise ships by 2020.
The planned annual output of
MV Werften will be stepped up in
future years to eventually build two
Neo-Panamax cruise ships of over
200,000 gross tonnes each and one
Panamax cruise vessel. MV Werften has docks, fabrication halls
and painting shops which are all
covered and, as a result, is able to
produce cruise ships of the highest
quality and workmanship, valued
at more than €2.5 billion, it added.
Meanwhile, Lloyd Werft will
continue to be led by managing
director Ruediger Pallentin, Dirk
Petersjohann and Carsten Haake.
fiscal policy room to offset the impact of weaker external flows on
gross domestic product (GDP)
growth,” Moody’s said.
Most Apac sovereigns have minimal reliance on exports to the UK.
Cambodia is the most exposed, with
exports to the UK worth 5.8% of its
GDP in 2015, which is why Moody’s
does not foresee a large impact on
trade or GDP growth in the region.
“Only in severe downside scenarios involving a sharp and prolonged negative confidence shock
to the EU economy would GDP
growth in Asia-Pacific be materially lower,” it said.
As for impact on financial flows
into Asia from the UK and other
European banks, Moody’s is uncertain. As international financial
centres, Hong Kong, and to a lesser
extent Singapore, would be exposed
if financing flows from the UK and
European banks ebbed, but they
may benefit if UK and European
banks aimed to diversify their asset
bases, said Moody’s.
Meanwhile, pronounced flows
into safe havens would be creditnegative for Japan, and to a lesser
extent Hong Kong.
A sustained rise in the yen would
lower Japan’s GDP growth and inflation, making it harder to achieve
fiscal consolidation and inflation
objectives, while a stronger US
dollar and hence local currency
would hit Hong Kong’s economy.
But Hong Kong government’s “very
strong fiscal position” would provide some easing room.
Malaysia's policy rate seen steady
as economy stays resilient
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s central bank is expected to hold its
benchmark rate at 3.25% tomorrow, a Reuters poll showed, as the
economy appears resilient despite
volatility in global markets following the Brexit vote.
All 13 economists in the poll
forecast that Bank Negara Malaysia
(BNM) will maintain its key rate, as
exports and domestic consumption remain solid despite a slight
slip in growth.
“Unless export numbers deteriorate massively, or the much-touted domestic consumption uptick
gets derailed somehow, here is a
central bank that will most likely
hold at 3.25% for the rest of the
year,” OCBC said in a research note.
Some of the economists polled
said it was unlikely the British vote
to leave the European Union will
push BNM to change its monetary
policy tomorrow, as it remains to
be seen how far it will affect Southeast Asia’s third-largest economy.
BNM has kept its overnight rate
unchanged since July 2014.
In the first quarter, Malaysia’s
economy grew 4.2% from a year
earlier, down from 4.5% in October
until December.
The country’s ringgit currency
gained more than 1% in the morning trade yesterday as foreign investors bought local bonds ahead
of BNM’s policy meeting.

The bigger threats
to UK banks
BY L IO N E L L AUR E N T

Mah Sing draws
7,500 registrants
Cerrado Residential Suites in Bangi to be launched on July 23
BY SHAWN N G
o f TheEd g ePro per ty.com
KUALA LUMPUR: Mah Sing Group
Bhd’s upcoming launch of Cerrado Residential Suites has attracted 7,500 registrants, due to the
“compelling” prices of the units,
which largely fall below RM500,000,
said its chief sales officer James A
Bruyns.
The project, set to be launched
on July 23, was open for registration
a few months ago, and received
good response from the market,
he told reporters.
“Registrants are an indication
of interest. While there is no guarantee whether they will buy or not,
the interest is there. So far, we’ve
generated about 7,500 registrants,”
he said.
Cerrado Residential Suites is a
part of Savanna Executive Suites
— which is almost fully sold — and
caters for strong market demand,
Bruyns added.
“There are more people looking
for smaller and affordable units, so
we came up with Cerrado, which
comprises 656- and 825-sq ft units,”
he explained.
The selling prices of most of
the units are below RM500,000.
For bumiputera buyers, prices are RM360,000 onwards, and
RM380,000 onwards for non-bumiputera buyers.
The maintenance fee is 30 sen
per sq ft.
The freehold Cerrado Residential Suites will offer four towers of
residential suites, with a total of
1,616 units.
Each tower has 35 storeys, and
comprises 404 units and four lifts.
The project also offers 10 units of
poolside cabana.
With an estimated gross development value (GDV) of RM832
million, Cerrado Residential Suites
is located on a nine-acre (3.64ha)
parcel within Southville City.
Southville City is a township
in Bangi that spreads across 428
acres, with an estimated GDV of
RM11.1 billion.
LONDON: Want a frightening
Brexit-related statistic?
British banks have more than
£65 billion (RM335.21 billion) of
exposure to commercial real estate — precisely the sector markets fear is vulnerable to a big
correction as investors rush to
pull their money.
The good news is that the financial impact of a dive in commercial property looks manageable for UK banks, such as
Lloyds and RBS, not least because
they have spent the past decade retrenching from this area
and strengthening their balance
sheets.
A 2008-style price plunge
would lead to £965 million in
total impairments for Lloyds and
RBS, according to Bernstein analysts — about 5% of the amount
the two lenders had to set aside
for the payment protection insurance scandal.
But history suggests that a
sharp fall in commercial real estate is accompanied by as fall in
home prices and a wider recession. The latter two would be a
much bigger cause of pain to the
banks: While they’d been cutting
exposure to developers, they’d
been ramping up their exposure
to consumers and homeowners.
G oldman Sachs research
shows how commercial real estate would account for only a
fraction of banks’ impairments in
the event of an economic shock.
Five-year cumulative loan impairments in commercial property would run to £3.9 billion
across seven banks, according to
Goldman. That’s still only about
half Lloyds’ underlying profit
for 2015.
More concerning are the £6 billion in cumulative impairments
seen in mortgages, the £17 billion
seen in non-mortgage consumer
lending and the £11 billion seen
in loans to businesses.
Unlike commercial real estate,
these areas have been a key plank
of UK banks’ growth strategies in
recent years. Mortgage lending
to aspiring landlords has recently grown at double-digit rates,
boosted by a housing boom and
government subsidies; consumer
credit growth hit an 11-year high
in February; and lending to businesses turned positive in early
2015. These are all under threat
from a slowing economy — whatever happens to the commercial
property market.
The drop in British financial
stocks, which has seen about 10%
bitten off the FTSE 350 Banks
Index since the Brexit vote, may
have further to go.
And even if an economic shock
doesn’t come to pass, it wouldn’t
take much of a reversal in fortunes to start eating into lenders’ profits.
S&P 500 Index already expects
industry credit losses to rise from
a recent low of 0.14% of loans in
2015 (about £3.3 billion) to 0.45%
in 2017. That may not sound like
much, but it’s likely to be accompanied by a squeeze on margins
as banks are encouraged to keep
lending in the face of falling interest rates.
It’s not clear that both these
scenarios are fully reflected in
bank valuations. Lloyds, the
country’s biggest mortgage lender, faces the steepest bill of the
seven banks in Goldman’s stress
test model — yet trades at only a
20% discount to book value.
Broker recommendations are
skewed to “buy”, and analysts
still expect Lloyds shares to rise
22% over the coming 12 months.
True, the lender has a robust 13%
core Tier 1 capital ratio, pays a
dividend and a track record in
defending profit margins.
But its strengths will be tested
by the fortunes of the domestic
retail market to which it is inextricably tied. If Brexit bites, that becomes even harder. — Bloomberg

Weak ringgit still a nearterm challenge for DiGi
DiGi.Com Bhd
July 11 (RM4.75)
Maintain hold with an unchanged
target price (TP) of RM4.80: We
expect DiGi.Com Bhd’s (DiGi) second quarter of financial year 2016
(2QFY16) net profit to meet our
and consensus expectations. We
estimate 2QFY16 earnings to fall
by mid to high single-digit yearon-year (y-o-y) to RM420 million
to RM440 million. We also expect
DiGi to declare a 2QFY16 dividend
per share of 5.4 sen to 5.6 sen, assuming a 100% payout ratio when
it announces its 2QFY16 results.
While we estimate DiGi’s
2QFY16 revenue to decline marginally to approximately RM1.7 billion (-1% y-o-y), its earnings should
see a sharper decline y-o-y mainly
due to a weak ringgit, which would
continue to put pressure on international direct dialling (IDD)
traffic costs.
The ringgit traded at an average
of RM4.01/US dollar in 2QFY16
(2QFY15: RM3.65/US dollar). The
weak ringgit, coupled with ongoing
intense price competition in data,
should lead to a lower earnings

before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortisation margin in 2QFY16
(2QFY15: 45.7%).
In mitigation, however, we note
that price competition in IDD, while
still intense, has eased a little in
2QFY16, following a recent uptick
in IDD rates for selected key migrant countries.
The recent relaunch of YTL Communications’ YES 4G LTE plan is expected to further intensify competition, in particular in the postpaid
segment, but DiGi has the smallest
postpaid exposure (26%) versus its
peers (Celcom: 45%; Maxis: 49%).
We note that U Mobile has raised
competitive intensity a notch by
CPO prices
to average
RM2,400 per
tonne in
second half
quickly responding with a new postpaid plan that offers a higher data
quota of 30GB at RM98, effectively
pricing data cheaper at RM3.26/
GB, compared with RM4.67/GB
previously in its RM70 (15GB) plan.
Key downside risks are a weaker-than-expected ringgit, poorer-than-expected margins and irrational price competition. Key upside
risks are a weaker-than-expected
US dollar and better-than-expected
prepaid revenue.
We make no changes to our
earnings forecasts at this juncture
and maintain our discounted cash
flow-derived (weighted average
cost of capital of 6.3% and longterm growth of 2%) 12-month TP
of RM4.80. While we see DiGi as a
beneficiary of the larger 900MHz
spectrum allocation, which would
improve its capital expenditure efficiency and network coverage in
the medium term, we believe DiGi
is still facing headwinds in growing
its prepaid revenue, due to the weak
ringgit amid IDD price competition,
as it has the largest market share in
the migrant market. — Affin Hwang
Research, July 11
O&G contracts for M’sian operators fall 61%
Oil and gas sector
July 11
Maintain neutral call: For the upstream, it is reported that Repsol has
reset the first oil date from the third
quarter of 2018 (3Q18) to 2019 for
its Ca Rong Do oil and gas project
in Vietnam, after receiving updated
contractor submissions from major
service providers. The project has
been in hibernation for the last six
months, given the plunge in crude
oil prices since early this year.
The project’s unchanged development concept involves a tension-leg wellhead platform (TLP)
tied back to a floating production,
storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel. The floater will have processing capacity of between 25,000 and
30,000 barrels per day of oil, and 60
million cubic feet per day of natural gas. It will be capable of storing
about 500,000 barrels of oil, and be
moored to the seabed by a fixed internal or external turret system. The
platform will float in water depths of
up to 350m and host up to 12 wells.
A fixed-term FPSO lease of eight
to nine years, together with operations and maintenance, will be
open for bidding by PetroVietnam
Technical Services Corp’s (PTSC)
production services division. Three
companies are expected to compete for the leased FPSO — Yinson
Holdings Bhd, Bumi Armada Bhd
and UK-listed Petrofac. We believe
Yinson, which owns a 49% stake
and operates FSO Bien Dong 01 and
FPSO Lam Son in Vietnam with a
strong and proven track record, has
the edge in securing this project.
The TLP for Ca Rong Do is
planned to be connected via a subsea flow line to the FPSO, which will
provide full oil and gas processing
capability. The TLP contractor will
partner with PTSC in the construction of the platform, which could be
up for tender between Modec and
possibly Floatec. The upstream indicated that Floatec, a joint venture
(JV) between Keppel Fels and McDermott, could continue to pursue
Ca Rong Do despite the end of most
of its Houston operations.
Repsol has indicated Ca Rong
Do as a “quite strong” project with
oil prices at US$55 (RM219.45) to
US$75 per barrel.
Repsol has said its net investment
devoted to the Ca Rong Do project
amounts to US$630 million between
2015 and 2019, with a total commitment of US$1.1 billion for the JV.
Ca Rong Do is operated by Repsol with a 55% stake, Pearl Energy
(Mubadala Petroleum) (25%), PetroVietnam E&P (15%) and Pan Pacific
Petroleum (5%).
According to JV partner Pan Pa-
cific, the gross best estimate of potential recovery from Ca Rong Do is
45.3 million barrels of oil, 172 billion
cubic feet of gas and 2.3 million barrels of condensate.
Total contracts awarded to Malaysian operators in 2Q16 fell 61%
quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q) and 78%
year-on-year (y-o-y) to RM852 million. For the first half of 2016, total
contracts fell 30% y-o-y to RM3 billion. Pending greater clarity on an
upward crude oil price trajectory
and resolution of recapitalisation
issues for a number of players, we
reiterate our “neutral” call on the
sector. We prefer companies with
stable and recurring earnings, such
as Dialog Group Bhd and Yinson.
Our “hold” calls are for Petronas
Gas Bhd, MISC Bhd, Bumi Armada,
SapuraKencana Petroleum Bhd and
UMW Oil & Gas Corp Bhd. — AmInvestment Bank Research, July 11

Maintain neutral: Malaysian
crude palm oil (CPO) futures
prices slumped by as much as
5.5% last Friday to their lowest
level in nine months, following
losses in rival soyoil and on sluggish export demand. Benchmark
palm oil futures for September
delivery on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives closed down 5% (or
RM117 per tonne) at RM2,241
per tonne, the lowest level since
Oct 9, 2015.
In its latest planting report on
July 6, the US Department of Agriculture revised up its estimates
of plantings to 94.1 million acres
(38.08 million hectares) of corn,
83.7 million acres of soybean,
and 50.8 million acres of wheat.
These compare with March intentions of 93.6 million acres
of corn, 82.2 million acres of
soybean, and 49.6 million acres
of wheat.
Improved rainfall in Midwestern US since early July has
led the market to remove the
weather risk premium attached
to soybean crops against crop
damage from the projected La
Nina event.
Brent crude oil prices fell 7%
during the week to US$46.76
(RM186.57) per barrel. The
sharp drop in crude oil prices may trigger concerns about
potentially weaker biodiesel demand. We estimate that
at the current crude oil price
level of US$47 per barrel and
exchange rate of RM4/US$1,
the CPO-biodiesel break-even
level is RM1,287 per tonne without government subsidy, and
RM1,887 per tonne with government subsidy.
CPO prices last Friday were
tracking the decline in soybean
oil prices to ensure that CPO
remains price-competitive, as
palm oil heads into the high
production season in August.
CPO prices currently trade at a
US$134/US$24 per tonne discount to US/Brazil soybean oils.
Palm oil stockpiles in Malaysia could rise by 4% to 13% as at
end-June, based on our estimate
as well as poll estimates by Reuters and Bloomberg.
This could lead to short-term
weakness in plantation counters as weaker palm oil prices,
coupled with lower output due
to lagged effects of El Nino, will
be negative for earnings. However, CPO prices are still broadly
within our expectations of an
average of RM2,400 per tonne
for the second half of 2016.
We keep our “neutral” rating and earnings forecasts for
regional planters. The concern
over earnings risk for planters
is partially offset by the undemanding equity value/hectare
for selected planters. Our key
picks in the region are AALI, FR
and GENP. — CIMB Research,

Unisem has healthy
balance sheet with
net cash of RM65.8m
Unisem (M) Bhd
June 11 (RM2.51)
Maintain trading buy with an
increased target price (TP) of
RM2.81: Unisem (M) Bhd’s share
price rallied 16.5% since our last
upgrade in late April, outperforming all its peers who were largely
impacted by the softer smartphone
market. It was and still is Hong Leong Investment Bank Research’s
top pick in the tech sector.
Thanks to its diversified exposure
to end-application markets, the automotive segment was instrumental in driving top-line growth in the
seasonally softer first quarter ended
2016 (1Q16), despite the prolonged
global inventory adjustments, especially in the smartphone market.
Automotive is becoming a significant catalyst for the sector as more
integrated circuits (IC) are embedded for lighting, communication,
safety, infotainment and others,
while hybrid and electric cars will
further spur demand. According to
IHS Automotive, automotive IC is
forecast to grow 6.7% year-on-year
in 2016 compounded by a 3.1% compound annual growth rate in global
car production.
Unisem has an edge in technology with its wafer-level chip-scale
packaging (WLCSP) which is gaining
popularity due to small form factor/
miniaturisation trend. Although its
contribution contracted in 1Q16
due to a stronger leaded demand
associated with the auto market, its
WLCSP is expected to gain traction
as new smartphones are launched in
the second half ended 2016 (2H16).

commands higher margins.
As we expect the ringgit to remain
weak against the US dollar in 2H16
at RM4 to RM4.20 with a financial
year (FY) average of RM4.05, this
would be a boost to the majority of
Unisem’s revenue which is US dollar-dominated.
Unisem has a healthy balance
sheet with a net cash position of
RM65.8 million as of 1Q16. A prudent capital expenditure policy
allows room for dividends, with a
projected yield of 5.4% for its financial year ended 2016 (FY16).
The 2QFY16 revenue (in US dollars) was guided to gain by 5% to
10% quarter-on-quarter, leading to
a profit after tax expectation ranging
from RM40 million to RM45 million.
However, risks lie in the foreign exchange, weak consumer demand,

Right time for Tiong Nam to
go for warehouse REIT listing
Tiong Nam Logistics Holdings Bhd
July 11 (RM1.62)
Initiate with a buy and a target
price (TP) of RM2.07: In the past,
Tiong Nam Logistics Holdings Bhd’s
business model of owning most
of its warehousing assets through
debt financing led to a high gearing
level, a sore point among investors.
However, the warehousing assets
owned by the group have seen appreciation in value over time and
now the assets could be monetised to relieve its balance sheet. Its
previous acquisitions of land also
open up the avenue for the group to
venture into the property business.
We opine that it is now an opportune time for Tiong Nam to go
warehouse real estate investment
trust (REIT) listing given the renewed interest in high dividend
stocks. Based on our estimation, its
warehouse REIT could potentially
fetch a market cap of RM528.6 million, translating into a value of 50
sen a share. This potential corporate
exercise would rerate Tiong Nam’s
logistics business, unlocking value
for its shareholders.
Meanwhile, while the listing of
its warehouses would improve its
cash position significantly, we do
not foresee a large cash payout
post the potential corporate exercise. The group still has expansion
plans to increase its warehousing
capacity tapping on the long-term
logistics growth. However, we do
drag by Batam’s performance.
We fine-tune revenue and US
dollar/ringgit assumptions which
led to upward revisions of FY16 to
RY17 earnings per share (EPS) by
2.6% and 10.2% respectively. Positives include a strong greenback,

not rule out partial payout of the
proceeds, which will also act as a
share price catalyst.
While admittedly the outlook for
the property market is still subdued,
the group still owns undeveloped
land bank of 152.7 acres (61.79ha)
[potential gross development value
(GDV) of about RM1.5 billion], an
upside catalyst as we have yet to
account for potential new launches.
Focus of Tiong Nam is on industrial property development which is
more resilient amid current property downturn.
Catalysts for the company include: i) listing of warehouses as
REIT; ii) recovery of property market; and iii) measures to promote
trade (that is the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement).
However, risks lie in: a) fluctuations in the oil price which affects
transportation costs and b) further
tightening of property lending policies by banks.
Besides the stable logistics business, Tiong Nam possesses upside
catalysts from potential REIT listing
and unlocking of land bank value
via its niche in industrial property
development.
We value the group’s logistics
services and warehousing business
separately to reflect its potential to
unlock warehousing assets through
REIT listing. Our sum-of-parts-driven TP is RM2.07. — Hong Leong

Fintech revolution set to shape local banking sector

Banking sector
Maintain overweight: The financial technology (fintech) revolution
has been unstoppable and is set
to shape the Malaysian banking
sector in the years to come. While
Bank Negara Malaysia will release
its concept paper for the regulation
for fintech in July 2016, we are presenting our views on its impact on
banks based on our preliminary
analysis. While fintech would help
banks to expand customer reach
and improve operating efficiencies,
the fintech revolution could also
create a new breed of non-financial
institution competitors for banks.
In our view, the digital revolution
would have a relatively smaller negative impact on banks compared to
other industries (like retailers and
taxi drivers). This is because: i) the
financial services sector is highly
regulated and capital-intensive; ii)
financial transactions involve higher
amounts of money, and hence customers prefer to deal with trusted
parties; lack of control could lead
to fraud and iv) fintech companies
may not have the expertise to assess
and control credit and other risks.
Based on the business models
of existing fintech companies, most
seem to focus on the consumer
loan segment. In Malaysia, consumer loans account for 57.4% of
the industry’s total loans. However,
not all the consumer banking business is at risk because the propositions of fintech companies are
normally more appealing to the
lower-income groups. Based on our
understanding, Malaysian banks’
exposures to these customers are
generally small.
Four local banks, namely,
Maybank, CIMB, RHB Bank, and
Hong Leong Bank are leading the

charge in embracing technology to
expand their customer reach and
increase their presence in the digital world. The first three of the afore-
mentioned banks have even started bootcamp-type programmes to
identify fintech companies they
can work with. These first movers
should see a smaller impact from
the onslaught of fintech companies,
or even benefit from the fintech
revolution.
We continue to overweight Malaysian banks given the expected
earnings recovery in 2016 and attractive valuations. While we concede that the emergence of fintech
companies would exert some competitive pressure on the banks’ businesses, the impact would only be felt
gradually in the longer term (two to
three years from now). Also, several
banks have taken steps to reduce the
threat posed by fintech companies
by improving their digital banking
capabilities and being involved in
the incubation of fintech companies.

‘Tighten security to curb
information leaks’
Salleh says 20-month onslaught against Najib is clearly costly
KUALA LUMPUR: Communications
and Multimedia Minister Datuk
Seri Dr Salleh Said Keruak called
for security to be beefed up to curb
information breaches that can potentially threaten national security.
He said it was alarming that confidential information had not only
been sold, but some of it had been
altered or doctored in efforts to
sensationalise issues.
“The main question would be
what else and even more damaging
information have also been sold
that we are not aware of.
“And this puts the security of the
nation at risk, and this is nothing
short of an act of treason,” he said
in a post yesterday entitled “It is
time to plug the breach of security”
on his blog sskeruak.blogspot.my.
Najib proposes
terms for out-ofcourt settlement
of suit
PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister
Datuk Seri Najib Razak has submitted his proposal containing
the terms of an out-of-court
settlement of the defamation
suit he has filed against Harakahdaily over 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB).
Najib’s lawyer Datuk Mohd
Hafarizam Harun said yesterday
the proposal for an out-of-court
settlement of the suit was submitted to Harakahdaily on July 4.
He said the court, however,
had fixed July 26 for another case
management on the matter because the counsel representing
Harakahdaily needed time to get
instructions from their client relating to the terms of settlement.
Mohd Hafarizam did not disclose the terms of the settlement.
The matter was fixed for case
management before Court of
Appeal President Tan Sri Md
Raus Sharif in his chambers yesterday for the parties to inform
the judge on the outcome of the
proposal to settle the case. Lawyers Datuk Takiyuddin Hassan
and Wan Rohimi Wan Daud appeared for Harakahdaily.
Najib sued Harakah managing director Dr Rosli Yaakob and
Harakahdaily chief editor Taufek
Yahya over an alleged defamatory article written by Rosli and
published on Feb 19, 2015.
In his statement of claim,
Najib claimed that the article
portrays him as having misused 1MDB funds and that the
publication of the article was
intended to tarnish his reputation. — Bernama
Salleh said the 20-month onslaught against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, using both
foreign and local blogs and news
organisations, to play up the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB)
issue as the catalyst to try to oust
Najib was clearly costly.
Salleh said it raised the question
of the rumours that were circulating
a year ago regarding the RM2 billion
in funding that the Anti-Najib Campaign (ANC) was armed with, and
about the RM600 million set aside
to finance the media and online war.
For the record, this allegation
was never denied, he said.
The minister said news portal Sarawak Report had more than once
boasted that it was in possession of
confidential documents, which it
claimed it had received from inside
sources and those close to the investigation, and that these documents
were genuine and original, and that
these inside forces were senior people and held authority.
He said some of this so-called
leaked information had now been
proven false, such as when The Wall
Street Journal admitted that the RM2.6
billion might, in fact, have come from
Arab donors after all.
“This was a huge embarrassment
for [former Prime Minister Tun Dr]
Mahathir [Mohamad] and [the] ANC.
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad should
accept that his campaign to discredit
Najib has failed and that all he has
achieved is the ruin of the political
career of all those around him.
“Mahathir has only himself to
blame for what happened to his son
[former Kedah menteri besar Datuk
Seri] Mukhriz [Mahathir],” said Salleh.
He said Dr Mahathir had underestimated Najib and thought that by
attacking him using the 1MDB issue
would bring about his ouster.
“What Mahathir overlooked, or
maybe he thought he can be exempted from, is that Umno has a
certain culture and tradition, and
there is no fast-track rise to power, not even for the son of a prime
minister or ex-prime minister.
“Mahathir thought he was bigger
than Umno, but now he probably
realises that the party is always
bigger than the individual.
“And that has resulted in Mahathir ruining Mukhriz’s political
career,” he said. — Bernama

‘Asem not right platform
for South China Sea issue’
BEIJING: China feels that the upcoming Asia-Europe Meeting (Asem) is
not an appropriate platform to discuss the South China Sea issue nor
should it be included in the meeting’s agenda.
Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs Kong Xuanyou said although
Asem is an important platform for
leaders from Asia and Europe for dialogue and to deepen cooperation,
the South China Sea issue has no
direct link with Asem.
“As such, Asem is not an appropriate venue for us to discuss the
matter, and it should not be included in the agenda,” he told reporters
here yesterday, in conjunction with

visit to Mongolia and attendance at
the 11th Asem Summit.
It was reported that the Permanent Court of Arbitration will rule
today the case of territorial disputes

Li will pay an official two-day visit
to Mongolia starting tomorrow, upon
the invitation of Mongolian Prime
Minister Jargatulga Erdenebat, and
will also attend the 11th Asem Summit in Ulan Bator from Thursday to
Friday.
Kong said this year’s Asem is a historical event, as it marks the grouping’s 20th anniversary, adding that
the theme, “Partnership for the future through connectivity”, is timely.
He said China hopes Asem will
continue to be a platform for leaders
from Asia and Europe to enhance cooperation and deepen collaboration,
so as to bring benefits to the people
and make plans for Asem’s future
development.
“Asem needs to serve as an effective framework and platform for
Asia and Europe to work together to
address global challenges, increase
cooperation, coordinate resources on

cooperation, especially in trade and
economy, as well as in connectivity,”

Say ‘no’ to political funding,
TI-M tells Petronas
‘It is unjustifiable to provide contributions without any favour in return’
BY MEENA L A KSHA NA
KUALA LUMPUR: Transparency International Malaysia (TI-M) lauds
Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) for
taking the 9th spot among 100 large
state-owned enterprises in emerging
markets for its reporting practices,
saying the company should immediately prohibit political contributions.
TI-M president Datuk Akhbar
Satar also called on the national
oil and gas corporation to disclose
financial data in terms of revenues
and taxes for key subsidiaries, joint
ventures and key associates that
operate in foreign countries.
“Petronas’ policy allows political contributions with certain disclosure, yet it remains ambiguous
and opaque without specifically
naming the politicians or parties
and the amount involved,” he said
in a statement yesterday.
“TI-M opines that Petronas, as
the caretaker of national resources,
should be neutral and non-partisan
in managing the assets and revenues.
“It is unjustifiable to provide
contributions without any favour
in return,” he added.
Akhbar also said country basis
financial disclosure is useful to detect fraudulent activities, minimise
corruption risks and provide greater
public scrutiny.
“We believe this reporting regime
can contribute significantly [to] Petronas to penetrate markets like America and the European Union where
stringent legislation is imposed on
extractive companies,” he added.
Akhbar said Petronas had maintained its index score at 6.3 out of 10
in the latest study on transparency
in corporate reporting conducted by
Transparency International, a reassessment study conducted since 2013.
Akhbar said Petronas’ reporting practices paralleled to those
of Indian public listed companies.
“TI-M lauds the outstanding
voluntary disclosure of Petronas in
both organisational transparency
and reporting on anti-corruption
programmes, awarded 100% and
88% respectively,” he said.
“Petronas also showed a small
improvement in country-by-country
reporting by 0.8% as compared to [the]
previous study in 2013,” he added.
Akhbar said state-owned enterprises like Petronas are often confronted with specific governance
issues due to inherent relations between governments and the company, including political interference.
“Corruption risks arise from the
complexity of accountability chain,
favouritism and unfair procurement
practices,” he added.
It should be noted that Petronas
was caught in the middle of an alleged corruption exposé on Monaco-based firm Unaoil in April.
In a series of exposés on Unaoil —
a firm that allegedly helps multinational corporations win contracts in
areas of the world where corruption
is common — US online newspa-
per Huffington Post and Australia’s
Fairfax Media had reported that Unaoil had bribed Petronas executives
to rig a large contract in oilfields in
the south of Iraq that Petronas was
managing in 2010.
Unaoil’s client was British oil services firm Petrofac, The Age daily in
Melbourne reported.
The report stated that leaked emails
had revealed that Unaoil agreed to
pay millions of dollars to a Malaysian
middle man who claimed he could
influence a top Petronas executive
and other Malaysian officials in 2010
for Petrofac to qualify for the contract.
In response, Petronas said it
takes the allegations “very seriously” and it had zero-tolerance policy
against bribery and corruption.
Melaka monitored

The deputy chairman of its tourism and river, beach and island development committee, Datuk Ghazale Muhamad, said such measures
are ongoing, and the surveillance
includes entry points into the state.

Lessons from developing world
Why advanced economies need to learn policy from such nations
BY
MOHAMED A EL-ERIAN
S
ince the onset of the global financial crisis, I have
pointed out that advanced
economies should learn
policy lessons from the experience of the developing
world. This argument has been reinforced by two developments last
week: the destabilisation of the pound
after the Brexit vote in the UK, and
indications that the US now has less
influence over the yield curve for its
government bonds.
For decades, three key beliefs have
structured our understanding of the
economic and financial underpinnings of most advanced countries:
that underlying structural forces had
matured into understandable, transparent and very gradual drivers of
change; that institutions were stable and well-functioning; and that
these two solid foundations could
withstand the vagaries of short-term
political cycles. This meant that advanced economies were believed to
inhabit an analytical “cyclical space”,
where secular and structural changes
occurred extremely slowly.
Even the dynamics of the business cycle were perceived to be conquerable, giving raise to the notion
of persistent “goldilocks” (neither
too hot, nor too cold) economies
and a “great moderation”.
This framework, however, has
proved both misleading and dangerous, particularly as it played
down or ignored four important
underlying developments.
1) The ever-increasing levels of debt
and leverage needed to maintain
the sense of economic and financial stability, however superficially.
2) Greater and more distorting malinvestment in artificial rather
than genuine drivers of growth
and prosperity.
3) A worsening trifecta of inequality
(income, wealth and opportunity).
4) Growing political polarisation
that fuels and is fuelled by a widening distrust of the political
establishment, business elites
and expert opinion.
It is clear that over the preceding
decade, structural foundations of
advanced countries started to revert
to features that are more prevalent
in emerging economies, particularly those with weak institutions,
insufficiently deep economic and
financial underpinnings, fluid social fabrics and messy politics.
Yet much of the decision-making
mindset continued to cling to a cyclical understanding of the economy.
Excessive reliance on a cyclical
approach is the main reason that
analysis and policymaking in advanced economies have disappointingly lagged reality, especially in the
aftermath of the global financial crisis.
This also explains why most
Western governments have been
let down repeatedly by economic outcomes, why they frequently
have been forced to revise their
expectations downward and why
outcomes have so often fallen short
of even these lowered expectations.
Consistently disappointing economic conditions also have fuelled
political polarisation, which, in
turn, has complicated economic
management.
It is no wonder that advanced
economies have experienced the
kind of events that are unfamiliar (and
in some cases, deemed improbable
or even unthinkable), but are quite
common in the emerging world. The
most striking of these include:
• The stubbornly persistent new
normal of unusually sluggish economic growth despite huge monetary policy stimulus.
• High levels of underemployment
and/or unemployment.
• The risk that an alarming number
of young people could go from
being unemployed to joining the
ranks of the unemployable.
• The eurozone’s debt crisis.
This is why officials from advanced economies would be
well-advised to be more open to the
lessons from the developing world.
Indeed, last week provided yet more
illustrations of the unusually fluid
structural conditions in the West
and, therefore, the need for greater
intellectual and analytical curiosity.
The shock Brexit vote brought
volatility to the pound, unanchored
by fluidity in both the current and
capital accounts of the UK’s balance
of payments. It suddenly introduced
structural complexity to the UK’s
commercial relationships with its
most important trading partners,
which, combined, also constitute
the largest economic area in the
world. Simultaneously, a central
attraction for companies to set up
shop in the UK — the ability to
serve the whole European Union —
also is in play. This raises questions
about the future of foreign interests
implanted in Britain and, more immediately, will slow inflows of direct
investment and portfolio capital.
This kind of uncertainty, which is
more common to developing than
advanced economies, can severely destabilise the currency. What is
more, these developments are taking
place as the Bank of England — unusually — lacks feasible and effective
interest-rate measures to stabilise its
foreign-exchange markets.
The US also finds itself in an
unusual situation, though it is a
lot less extreme.
As a large country, the US traditionally has had control over both
its economic and financial destinies. Although it still can determine its economic future, it has
less control when it comes to the
yield curve on its Treasuries, which
has been exceptionally subject to
influences from abroad.
The consequence is that neither
the level of US interest rates nor the
relative valuations of various Treasury bond maturities is now closely
linked to domestic economic fundamentals. That means the US Federal Reserve must spend an unusual
amount of time assessing external
developments and the way they affect domestic variables.
None of these developments
is likely to go away soon. In fact,
we are likely to see an even longer
list of improbables and unthinkables come to pass in the advanced
world. And Western policymakers
will have an even more urgent need
to supplement their conventional
economic understanding with insights from the experiences of the
developing world. — Bloomberg

Why IS persists and what needs to be done
BY JEFFREY SACHS
DEADLY terrorist attacks in Istanbul,
Dhaka, and Baghdad demonstrate
the murderous reach of the Islamic
State (IS) in Europe, North Africa, the
Middle East, and parts of Asia. The
longer IS maintains its strongholds in
Syria and Iraq, the longer its terrorist
network will create such carnage. Yet
IS is not especially difficult to defeat.
The problem is that none of the states
involved in Iraq and Syria, including
the US and its allies, has so far treated
IS as its primary foe. It is time they do.
IS has a small fighting force, which
the US puts at 20,000 to 25,000 in Iraq
and Syria, and another 5,000 or so
in Libya. Compared to the number
of active military personnel in Syria
(125,000), Iraq (271,500), Saudi Arabia
(233,500), Turkey (510,600), or Iran
(523,000), IS is minuscule.
Despite US President Barack Obama’s pledge in September 2014 to
“degrade and ultimately destroy” IS,
the US and its allies, including Saudi
Arabia, Turkey, and Israel (behind the
scenes), have been focusing instead
on toppling Syria’s Bashar al-Assad.
Israel opposes IS, but Israel’s
greater concern is Assad’s Iranian backing. Assad enables Iran to
support two paramilitary foes of
Israel, Hezbollah and Hamas. Israel
therefore prioritises the removal of
Assad over the defeat of IS.
For the US, steered by neoconservatives, the war in Syria is a continuation of the plan for global US
hegemony launched by Defence
Secretary Richard Cheney and Under Secretary Paul Wolfowitz at the
Cold War’s end. In 1991, Wolfowitz
told US General Wesley Clark: “But
one thing we did learn [from the
Persian Gulf War] is that we can use
our military in the region — in the
Middle East — and the Soviets will
not stop us. And we have got about
five or 10 years to clean up those old
Soviet regimes — Syria, Iran (sic),
Iraq — before the next great superpower comes on to challenge us.”
The multiple US wars in the Middle East — Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria,
Libya, and others — have sought to
remove the Soviet Union, and then
Russia, from the scene and to give
the US hegemonic sway. These efforts have failed miserably.
For Saudi Arabia, as for Israel, the
main goal is to oust Assad in order
to weaken Iran. Syria is part of the
extensive proxy war between Shi’ite
Iran and Sunni Saudi Arabia that
plays out in the battlefields of Syria
and Yemen, and in bitter Shi’ite-Sunni
confrontations in Bahrain and other
divided countries in the region (including Saudi Arabia itself).
For Turkey, the overthrow of Assad would bolster its regional stand-
ing. Yet Turkey now faces three foes
on its southern border: Assad, IS,
and nationalist Kurds. IS has so far
taken a back seat to Turkey’s concerns about Assad and the Kurds.
But IS-directed terrorist attacks in
Turkey may be changing that.
Russia and Iran, too, have pursued their own regional interests,
including through proxy wars and
support for paramilitary operations.
Yet both have signalled their readiness to cooperate with the US to
defeat IS, and perhaps to solve other
problems as well. The US has so far
spurned these offers, because of its
focus on toppling Assad.
The US foreign-policy establishment blames Russian President
Vladimir Putin for defending Assad,
while Russia blames the US for trying
to overthrow him. These complaints
might seem symmetrical, but they are
not. The attempt by the US and its allies to overthrow Assad violates the
UN Charter, while Russia’s support of
Assad is consistent with Syria’s right of
self-defence under that charter. Yes,
Assad is a despot, but the UN Charter
does not give licence to any country
to choose which despots to depose.
The persistence of IS underscores
three strategic flaws in US foreign
policy, along with a fatal tactical flaw.
First, the neoconservative quest
for US hegemony through regime
change is not only bloody-minded arrogance; it is classic imperial
overreach. It has failed everywhere
the US has tried it. Syria and Libya
are the latest examples.
Second, the CIA has long armed
and trained Sunni jihadists through
covert operations funded by Saudi
Arabia. In turn, these jihadists gave
birth to IS, which is a direct, if unanticipated, consequence of the
policies pursued by the CIA and
its Saudi partners.
Third, the US perception of Iran
and Russia as implacable foes of
America is in many ways outdated and a self-fulfilling prophecy. A
rapprochement with both countries
is possible.
Fourth, on the tactical side, the
US attempt to fight a two-front war
against both Assad and IS has failed.
Whenever Assad has been weakened, Sunni jihadists, including
IS and al-Nusra Front, have filled
the vacuum.
Assad and his Iraqi counterparts
can defeat IS if the US, Russia, Saudi
Arabia, and Iran provide air cover
and logistical support. Yes, Assad
would remain in power; yes, Russia would retain an ally in Syria;
and yes, Iran would have influence
there. Terrorist attacks would no
doubt continue, perhaps even in
the name of IS for a while, but the
group would be denied its base of
operations in Syria and Iraq.
Such an outcome would not only
end IS on the ground in the Middle
East; it could lay the groundwork
for reducing regional tensions more
generally. The US and Russia could
begin to reverse their recent new
cold war through shared efforts
to stamp out jihadist terrorism.
(A pledge that Nato will not offer
admission to Ukraine or escalate
missile defences in Eastern Europe
would also help.)
There is more. A cooperative approach to defeating IS would give
Saudi Arabia and Turkey reason and
opportunity to find a new modus
vivendi with Iran. Israel’s security
could be enhanced by bringing
Iran into a cooperative economic
and geopolitical relationship with
the West, in turn enhancing the
chances for a long-overdue twostate settlement with Palestine.
The rise of IS is a symptom of the
shortcomings of current Western
— particularly US — strategy. The
West can defeat IS. The question
is whether the US will undertake
the strategic reassessment needed
to accomplish that end. — Project

British retail
sleepwalks
into Amazonageddon
BY C A ROL RYA N
LONDON: Britain’s economic
problems could be a decisive
moment in the online land
grab. Real-world stores are burdened with poor demand, too
much property and thinning
profit. Amazon, meanwhile, is
hiring 1,000 UK staff and pushing into fashion and groceries.
The US tech giant has its
sights trained on the UK market. Of the €15 billion (RM66
billion) Amazon has invested
in Europe since 2010, a third
has been in Britain. The company’s Prime Now one-hour
delivery service is now available to nearly a third of the UK
population, and it has taken
on the British grocery sector
with its AmazonFresh online
food service. It also opened a
46,000 sq ft photography studio in East London last year as
part of an online fashion push.
Major food retailers like Tesco and
J Sainsbury have
been cutting prices,
effectively forgoing
profit in order to win
market share.
China’s pension readies
for market foray
NCSSF to deploy funds from retirement savings managers in 2H
BY JUSTINA LE E
HONG KONG: China’s pension
funds are about to become stock
investors.
The country’s local retirement
savings managers, which have
about two trillion yuan (RM1.2
trillion) for investment, are handing over some of their cash to the
National Council for Social Security
Fund (NCSSF), which will oversee
their investments in securities including equities. The organisation
will start deploying the cash in the
second half, according to China
International Capital Corp Ltd and
CIMB Securities.
Chinese policymakers announced the change last year in
a bid to boost yields for a pension
system that has long suffered low
returns by limiting its investments
to deposits and government bonds.
For the nation’s equity markets
— which are dominated by retail
investors and among the world’s
worst performers this year — the
state fund’s presence is even more
valuable than its cash, said Hao
Hong, chief China strategist at Bocom International Holdings Co Ltd.
The NCSSF has “such a good
reputation in being a value investor
that if it takes the lead, the signalling
effect is actually quite strong,” said
Hong, who had predicted the start
and peak of China’s equity boom
last year. “It’s almost like Warren
Buffett saying he is buying a stock.”
The NCSSF, which oversees 1.5
trillion yuan in reserves for China’s
social security system, has returned
an average 8.8% a year since 2000,
the Securities Daily reported earlier this year, citing official data.
The larger pension system, on the
other hand, has been locally managed and made just 2.3% annually
through 2014, the newspaper said.
The organisation’s entry will
come as Shanghai stocks begin a
gradual recovery that has pared
their losses for the year to 16% from
as much as 25%. While yuan depreciation concerns are pressuring
Chinese assets lower, the economy
is showing some signs of stabilising. The nation’s foreign exchange
reserves unexpectedly climbed in
June in a sign of slowing outflows,
while a measure of services rose.—

Line prices IPO at top of range in
year’s biggest tech debut
BY YUJI NAKAM U RA, TAK AS HI AM ANO & PAV EL ALP E Y E V
The strategy is working. Amazon’s UK sales have grown at
an average rate of 11% annually
between 2013 and 2015. It may
have won a quarter of all the
growth in UK non-food retail
sales last year, according to UBS
estimates. Major food retailers
like Tesco and J Sainsbury have
been cutting prices, effectively
forgoing profit in order to win
market share. Amazon, which
lacks store rental costs, can afford to join in that game very
aggressively.
To say the UK high street
doesn’t need the hassle is an
understatement. The weakening pound will push up dollar-denominated Asian sourcing costs, as flagged by John
Lewis, Marks & Spencer, Primark and Sports Direct this
week. Tesco and Sainsbury’s
are wrestling with the problem of having large stores in
out-of-town locations, where
what they want is more small
stores in urban centres.
Is the online assault good for
Britain? Consumers may welcome the low prices. Shop prices of food and non-food goods
have fallen for 37 consecutive
months. But the British Retail
Consortium estimates 900,000
retail jobs will be gone by 2025
— around a third of the current
total. An extra 1,000 jobs in online retail don’t really change
the fact that the shift to e-commerce will create winners but
also many losers. — Reuters

TOKYO: Japan’s Line Corp set the
price of its initial public offering
(IPO) at the top of the targeted
range and will exercise an option
to sell more stock as investors shrug
off market volatility caused by the
Brexit decision.
The mobile messaging service,
owned by South Korean portal Naver Corp, will sell 35 million shares at
¥3,300 (RM129) apiece, the company said yesterday. It will also sell 5.25
million shares through a so-called
greenshoe allowing it to increase the
amount of stock sold, boosting the
total raised to ¥132.8 billion.
Line announced plans for the IPO
weeks before the UK held its vote to
leave the European Union, a decision that unleashed market volatility
across the world’s equities and currencies. At the IPO price, the company is valued at about US$6.9 billion
(RM27.5 billion) and will be the biggest technology debut of the year.
“There’s a lot of hope for Line’s
future as a media platform,” said
Hiroshi Naya, an analyst at Ichiyoshi Research Institute Inc in To-
kyo. “We’ve pretty much solidified
which smartphone services we use
and which ones we don’t, and Line
has really established itself as something a lot of people use everyday
for communication,”
Line is now gearing up for a battle with far larger rivals such as
Facebook Inc and Tencent Holdings Ltd as it looks to expand its
218 million user base beyond its
strongest markets of Japan, Taiwan
and Thailand. It plans to use the
proceeds to spearhead an expansion across Asia and eventually the
US. — Bloomberg

Best-in-class funds
Uneasy calm has returned to financial markets since Brexit shock. Time to get back into stocks?
BY C H A N JI A N M ING & JULIANA ALM EIDA
A
s the outcome of the UK’s referendum on the European Union became apparent in the early hours of June 24 in Singapore,
global financial markets looked
like they were on the brink of
a meltdown. The prospect of reduced GDP
growth in the UK and EU, and the possibility
of “Eurosceptic” factions in other EU nations
making things worse by plotting exit strategies of their own, not to mention the continued possibility of a US rate hike, looked set
to heighten volatility for the rest of this year.
In barely a week, however, an uneasy calm
seems to have returned. The CBOE Volatility
Index (VIX), commonly known as the “fear
gauge”, which jumped 49% to 25.8 on June
24, has since fallen more than 40% to 14.8.
Investor appetite for risk assets also appears
to have improved. The Standard & Poor’s 500
index has charged back to pre-Brexit levels,
while European equities have recouped more
than half of their losses.
Curiously, traditional safe-haven assets
are also still very much in demand by investors. For instance, the price of gold has risen
6.7% since June 23, and hit a 27-month high.
This year, the precious metal is up nearly 30%.
The Japanese yen, which is widely viewed as
a safe haven in the currency space, is trading at about 102 to the US dollar, with some
traders calling for it to strengthen below the
100 mark, despite speculation that the Bank
of Japan may intervene. Meanwhile, investors are also piling into US Treasury bonds,
which are seen as the safest of financial assets. In fact, yields on benchmark 10-year
Treasuries hit record lows on July 1.
So, what is an investor to do? Singapore
offers a rich universe of actively managed
open-ended funds through which just about
any broad investment view can be expressed.
However, with over a thousand actively managed primary funds and nearly 6,000 share
classes, the choice can be overwhelming.
And, with individual funds, the disclaimer
that past performance is not a guarantee of
future performance is, unfortunately, often
true. The departure of a fund manager or loss
of efficacy of an investment style is among
many factors that can disrupt a fund’s returns.
That said, there are useful metrics that
can help improve the odds of picking longterm outperformers. Using Morningstar
Direct’s data, we filtered the available funds
in Singapore for those with stable and experienced management that have succeeded
in outperforming their benchmarks without
taking more than moderate risk and charging no more than average fees.
Specifically, the hurdles are:
• That a fund charges no higher than the
average expense ratio among peers in the
same category. Being competitive on costs
helps boost returns over time;
• That a fund’s risk is average or below
average compared with peers in the same
category. Risk is measured by Morningstar’s
Overall Risk Rating;
• That the fund’s managers have been in
charge for at least five years, thus providing
a track record that has been tested through
a full investment cycle;
• That a fund is a top-quartile performer
in its Morningstar category over three years.
This means it has outperformed 75% of its
global peers over this period; and
• That a fund has outperformed its benchmark over three years, which shows up in
a positive alpha. The higher the alpha, the
better a portfolio manager.
All in, we have come up with 21 “best-inclass” funds across various sectors, spanning
those that have been beaten down in recent
months and those that have suffered a long
period of underperformance to those that
have been advancing on a wave of optimism.
Institutional share classes were omitted so
that what is captured is accessible to individual investors. Investment categories
in which the funds available in Singapore
did not pass these hurdles were excluded.
Where more than one fund from an investment category made the cut, the fund with
the highest alpha was selected.
Funds with the highest alpha may not necessarily have delivered huge raw performance
over the last three years if their investment
category did not perform well. Conversely,
some of the raw performance of funds with
high alphas that were focused on hot sectors
probably was not a result of the manager’s skill.
As the saying goes, “A rising tide lifts all boats”.
Best on India:
PineBridge India Equity
One market in which the tide has been rising
fast over the past year is India. Amid tepid
global growth, India is forecast to be one of
the fastest-expanding and resilient large economies. Low oil prices, pro-business reforms
and the economy’s domestic orientation are
positive tailwinds for Indian companies.
Navigating India best has been the $1.4 billion PineBridge India Equity fund. The fund’s
A5CP share class is approved under the CPF
Investment Scheme (CPFIS). The fund’s cumulative returns of 78% over three years outstrip its
benchmark MSCI India’s 24% gain. This places
the fund in the top 5% of 314 peers. Indeed, the
fund has generated the highest alpha relative
to other best-in-class funds. Total assets have
grown 11% over the past year, helped by net
inflows of S$124 million.
The PineBridge India fund has been managed by Elizabeth Soon since 2011 and is also
advised by Mumbai-based Huzaifa Husain,
head of equity, India. Soon and Husain each
have more than 10 years of industry experience. Highlighted previously in Personal
Wealth (June 13), the fund’s portfolio is positioned to benefit from India’s push to improve
rural income and infrastructure under the
country’s 2016-17 budget. Top holdings are
Indian IT giant Infosys (8.8%), cement manufacturer Shree Cement (8.4%) and technology services company Wipro (8.1%). Unlike
other Indian equity funds, Pinebridge India
has maintained low exposure to India’s banks,
which face rising bad loans and a March 2017
deadline to clean up their balance sheets.
There are risks to India’s outlook, though.
“As the domestic services industry is now
being opened up to global competition,
one needs to be careful about the names
one chooses to invest there,” says Husain.
“A further consideration is the cost of capital for heavily leveraged companies, which
has risen significantly, and hence it is best to
avoid them,” he adds. Additionally, the pending departure in September of Raghuram
Rajan, the well-respected Reserve Bank of
India governor, has also resulted in some
uncertainty as to the pace of reforms.
Best on EM small caps:
Templeton Emerging Markets
Smaller Companies
While India has been drawing investors, most
of the emerging market (EM) space has been
rather lacklustre. But some luminaries in this
field figure things are turning around. “Emerging markets in general have been underperforming for the last three years, mainly because
money has been drawn to the US stock market because of its good performance and also
because of the stronger US dollar, which has
drawn money in the face of the possibility of
higher US interest rates,” says Mark Mobius,
executive chairman, Templeton Emerging
Markets Group at Franklin Templeton Investments. “Now, that situation is changing as the
US stock market tops out and as the US dollar
weakens against a number of EM currencies.”
The S$659 million Templeton Emerging
Markets Smaller Companies fund managed
by Mobius focuses on small-cap companies
across 23 EM countries. A top performer in
its category, cumulative returns of 19% in the
past three years far outstrip the 2.3% fall in the
MSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap benchmark. This performance ranks the fund in the
top 5% of 100 peers. Total assets have grown
8.3% over the past year, drawing in S$115 million. Also on the team since the fund’s launch
in October 2007 are Singapore-based Dennis
Lim and Tom Wu in Hong Kong.
Investments in India, Turkey and Pakistan
helped fuel the fund’s outperformance over
the past year. In fact, Indian stocks made up
six of the fund’s top 10 holdings as at May 31.
The fund’s 20% allocation to India is nearly
twice the MSCI benchmark’s weight. China,
Taiwan and South Korea are underweighted. Top stockholdings include India’s Bajaj
Holdings and Investment (4.3%), Federal
Bank (2.3%) and Tata Chemicals (2.3%). By
sector, healthcare, F&B as well as pharmaceuticals spurred the fund’s performance,
while autos and insurance weighed it down.
Within EMs, Mobius points out that small
caps are looking cheap not only against valuations in developed markets but also those
of their large-cap competitors. “As money
returns to EM stocks, the initial emphasis
will be on large-cap stocks, but we expect it
will quickly gravitate to small- and mid-cap
stocks,” he says.
Best on Europe small caps:
Parvest Equity Europe Small Cap
What about Europe? Is the Brexit panic an
opportunity to jump in? Or, is there more
pain to come? Neither the timing of the UK’s
departure nor the trading terms between the
EU and the UK, the bloc’s second-largest
economy, have been clarified, nor are they
likely to be for some time. Paradoxically,
confidence that the status quo will not immediately change appears to have aided a
rebound. After an initial sell-off, European
markets have recouped most of their losses.
For brave investors mulling over buying opportunities in Europe, the S$2.9 billion Parvest
Equity Europe Small Cap fund is a possible
candidate. Over three years, its total returns
of 54% are ahead of the 44% rise in the MSCI
Europe Small Cap index. The typical universe
the fund invests in is the smallest 10% to 15%
of companies by market capitalisation in 15
developed markets in Europe. At 35.5%, the
UK occupies the largest weight in the fund.

contrarian stance
F RO M PAG E 17
Best on China:
Neuberger Berman China Equity
China may be known for being volatile, opaque and
inefficient. It is exactly these factors that provide the
S$847 million Neuberger Berman China Equity fund
opportunities to outperform, according to its managers. For instance, during the market rout in July 2015,
the fund’s managers “took advantage and added to
positions where we felt strong fundamentals persisted”. The contrarian approach, highlighted in the
fund’s review of its 2015 performance, paid off towards
end-2015 when domestic China A-shares recovered.
China A-shares make up a third of the fund’s portfolio.
Earlier this year, however, index provider MSCI
disappointed the market when it delayed the inclusion of China A-shares in its EM indices, citing
capital control concerns. Still, over three years, the
fund’s total returns of nearly 30% beat the MSCI China index’s 1.5% gain. This places the fund in the top
5% of 368 peers in Morningstar’s China Equity category. “Short-termism and myopic decision-making
among the domestic market’s investor base are in
part responsible for the heightened volatility characteristic of the China A-share market. However,
we believe that it is also this behaviour that enables
disciplined investors operating with a longer-term
horizon, like ourselves, to navigate such choppy
markets and identify opportunities,” say managers Frank Yao and Lihui Tang, who are supported
by local teams based in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
Among the fund’s top holdings are Tencent Holdings (9.8%), China Mobile (5.7%) and IT-services
provider Wangsu Science & Technology - A (5.1%).
Looking ahead, the fund’s managers point out that
even the most bearish of growth forecasts of 5.8%
for 2016 would generate incremental economic output of over US$500 billion (RM2 trillion), given the
size of China’s US$10 trillion economy, the second
largest in the world. “In dollar terms, this degree of
growth should certainly benefit many industries
and companies,” they say, adding that the services
sector is a growing contributor to China’s economy
in recent years.
Honorable mentions
in gold, Japan, Singapore
Elsewhere, while Japan’s benchmark Nikkei index
has fallen double digits this year, the S$986 million
Parvest Equity Japan Small Cap fund, managed by
Shunsuke Matsushima since 2004, has eked out
positive gains. We noted in Personal Wealth (May 9)
how small-cap Japanese stocks have a more domestic
focus, making them less susceptible to global macros and the strengthening yen. The Parvest Equity
Japan fund also maintains a single-digit exposure
to Japanese financials, the worst-performing sector
to date. Morningstar gives the fund a Bronze rating.
Meanwhile, uncertainty over US interest rate hikes
and, most recently, the fallout from Brexit have driven up the price of gold this year. The S$248 million
Franklin Gold & Precious Metals fund, which was
featured in Personal Wealth (April 25), has benefited, with gains of more than 50% this year alone. The
precious metal is also seen as a better safe-haven
asset compared with currencies such as the Swiss
franc and Japanese yen. This is because their gains
can be capped by central bank intervention.
Finally, the S$665 million Schroder Singapore
Trust A could appeal to local investors more familiar
with Singaporean stocks. The fund is rated Bronze by
Morningstar and managed by Teoh Seok Hooi, who
has more than 27 years of investment experience and
has been managing the fund since 2004. Although
the Singapore stock market has been impacted by
falling oil prices, a cooling property market and a
slowing economy, the Schroder Singapore fund has
managed to weather the storm thus far with returns
of -2.4%. In contrast, the MSCI Singapore Free index
benchmark has fallen 16.1%. — The Edge Singapore

StanChart bank robber
nabbed in Bangkok
IN BRIEF
Leadsom apologies to
childless rival over
motherhood row
After more than 72 hours on the run from Singapore — police
SINGAPORE: The man who
robbed a Standard Chartered Bank
(StanChart) branch in Holland Village has been nabbed in Thailand
after more than 72 hours on the
run, police confirmed yesterday.
The Straits Times reported that
the man was arrested by the Royal
Thai Police in Bangkok on Sunday.
According to Major General Apichart Suriboonya, who heads Thailand’s Interpol unit, the suspect is
Canadian. He flew from Singapore
N Korea
threatens action
over US antimissile system
to Thailand last Thursday, arriving
at 5.08pm. On Sunday, he was arrested at noon at Boxpackers Hostel
in Bangkok.
Major General Apichart, who declined to name the suspect, says the
Thai police cancelled his right to stay
in Thailand after receiving an arrest
warrant from Singapore authorities.
He is now being detained in an immigration detention centre in Bangkok.
When Thai police questioned
him, “he said nothing” and de-
manded to meet an officer from the
Canadian embassy, Major General
Apichart told The Straits Times. But
it was not possible as it was a Sunday and the embassy was closed.
It is unclear whether an embassy
officer has got in touch with him but
Thai police are seeking to question
him more, said the major general.
The Straits Times report said that
the major general was unable to say
how long it would take to extradite the
suspect, but added “I think it won’t
be long”. Singapore sent the request
to extradite him to the Thai embassy
in Singapore last Friday night. This
request needs to pass through Thailand’s foreign affairs ministry, then
to the Thai Attorney-General’s office
first before being approved, he said.
Last Thursday, the suspect
had walked into the bank around
11.25am, handed the female teller
a piece of paper with his demands
and later fled on foot with about
S$30,000 (RM88,689).

Dallas sniper plotted bigger assault

SEOUL: North Korea threatened
yesterday to take “physical action” after Washington and Seoul
announced they would deploy a
sophisticated US anti-missile defence system to counter the growing menace from Pyongyang.
Seoul and Washington last
Friday revealed their decision
to deploy the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)
system in the South following
recent North Korean missile
and nuclear tests.
The two allies have not yet revealed exactly when and where
the system, which fires projectiles to smash into enemy missiles, would be deployed, but
said they were in the final stage
of selecting a potential venue.
“The DPRK (North Korea)
will take a physical counteraction to thoroughly control
THAAD ... from the moment
its location and place have
been confirmed in South Korea,” the artillery bureau of
the North’s military said in a
statement, according to the
official Korean Central News
Agency. — AFP
DALLAS: The US military veteran
who fatally shot five Dallas police
officers last week was plotting a
larger assault, authorities said, disclosing how he had taunted negotiators and written on a wall in
his own blood before being killed.
Protests against US police tactics
continued for a third straight day on
Sunday, with scores arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, after authorities warned that violence during
street demonstrations over the fatal
police shootings of two black men
last week would not be tolerated.
Dallas police chief David Brown
told CNN on Sunday that Micah
X Johnson had improvised as he
used “shoot-and-move” tactics to
gun down officers during a demonstration last Thursday, the deadliest
day for US law enforcement since
Sept 11, 2001.
Brown said a search of Johnson’s home showed the gunman
had practised using explosives,
and that other evidence suggested
he wanted to use them against law
enforcement officers.
“We’re convinced that this suspect had other plans,” he said. The
fatal police shootings of two black

men in Minnesota and Louisiana
last week led the 25-year-old Texas
shooter to “fast-track” his attack,
Brown said.
Johnson, a black veteran who
served in Afghanistan, took advantage of a spontaneous march that
began toward the end of the protest
over those killings. Moving ahead
of the rally in a black Tahoe SUV, he
stopped when he saw a chance to
use “high ground” to target police,
Brown said.
Johnson was killed by a bombequipped robot, but Brown said
before then he sang, laughed at
and taunted officers, and said he
wanted to “kill white people” in
retribution for police killings of
black people. — Reuters
Turkey jails seven more suspects in Istanbul airport attack
BY DA REN B U TL ER
ISTANBUL: A Turkish court has
jailed seven suspects pending trial on terrorism charges over last
month’s triple suicide bombing at
Istanbul’s main airport, bringing
the number in custody to 37, the
state-run Anadolu Agency reported.
The attack at Ataturk Airport
killed 45 people and wounded hundreds, the deadliest in a series of
bombings this year in Turkey.
The seven suspects were detained on charges of “membership of an armed terrorist group”
and being accomplices to murder,
Anadolu Agency said. The private
Dogan news agency said all seven
were foreign nationals.
One government official has said
the attackers were Russian, Uzbek
and Kyrgyz nationals, and President
Tayyip Erdogan has said Islamic
State militants from the former Soviet Union were behind the attack.
Media reports have said at least
11 of those detained were Russian.
The Istanbul bombing was followed by major attacks in Bangladesh, Iraq and Saudi Arabia, all apparently timed for the run-up to Eid
al-Fitr, the holiday marking the end
of the Ramadan holy fasting month.
In the June 28 airport attack,
three bombers opened fire to create panic outside the airport before
two of them got inside and blew
themselves up. The third militant
detonated his explosives outside
at the entrance to the international
arrival terminal.
Moscow says thousands of Russian citizens and citizens of other
former Soviet states have joined Islamic State, travelling through Turkey to reach Syria. Russia fought
two wars against Chechen separatists in the North Caucasus in
the 1990s, and more recently has
fought Islamist insurgents in Dagestan. — Reuters
LONDON: Andrea Leadsom, the
junior minister seeking to become Britain’s next prime minister, apologised to her childless
rival over remarks which suggested she had a greater stake
in the country’s future because
she was a mother. Leadsom’s

StanChart’s smart Japan move
Its foray into broking there comes as cash-rich insurers and domestic banks are struggling to boost returns
BY N I SH A GOPA L A N
S
o Standard Chartered
(StanChart) has started its
first brokerage business in
Japan. Who knew that market held so much promise, considering everything
that’s gone down in India and Indonesia for the UK lender?
At first glance, it seems bizarre.
StanChart is hardly a top-ranked
player and has fallen further down
the spectrum since exiting equities
last year. It doesn’t do much in bond
underwriting overall in Asia either,
Bloomberg-compiled league tables
show, even as onshore issuance in
China is booming.
Then there’s the issue of competition. Nomura may have scaled back
a lot of its overseas operations but
it’s still Japan’s biggest brokerage by
a mile. Morgan Stanley, too, is one to
contend with, thanks in large part to
its relationship with Mitsubishi UFJ.
True, StanChart opened an office in
Yokohama as far back as 1880 but it’s
been retrenching in recent times,
closing its wealth-management business in 2012, for instance.
Nostalgia
On the positive side, London-headquartered StanChart is one of the
world’s biggest emerging-market
lenders, with a significant presence
in Africa, Southeast Asia and India.
(Rival HSBC’s main focus is China,
although Hong Kong is a significant
market for both banks.)
And its foray into broking in Japan
comes as the nation’s cash-rich insurers and domestic banks are struggling
to boost returns amid a slide in stocks
and negative bond yields. Nomura’s
retrenchment from many activities
outside of Japan has also led to a hole
that even a slimmed-down StanChart
can play into, while garnering the
higher fees Japanese clients pay.
StanChart also remains one of
the region’s top corporate banks, according to Greenwich Associates’
research. It notes that even as Japanese lenders have moved to undercut
others in areas such as trade finance,
StanChart is still high on the go-to list
for Asian multinationals seeking an
overseas beachhead, and vice versa.
It stands to reason then that, along
with HSBC and Citigroup, StanChart
is positioned nicely to win when flows
eventually pick up.
Assisting companies in Asia outside Japan to sell bonds denominated
in either dollars, euro or yen is another forte, with the lender ranking third
this year, behind HSBC and Citigroup,
data compiled by Bloomberg show.
StanChart will also be able to underwrite fixed-income issuance in Japan,
and that could help draw business
from overseas investors looking for
haven assets.
Furthermore, StanChart is strong
in the Middle East, which has witnessed record note sales this year and
has become a focus of investment
bankers as Saudi Arabia prepares to
take Aramco public.
That chief executive officer Bill
Winters needs to find new sources of
growth isn’t in any doubt. The bank
used to generate close to US$19 billion (RM75.81 billion) in annual revenue in its heyday of 2012 and 2013,
Bernstein analyst Chirantan Barua
said in a note in May. Now, it seems
even US$15 billion is a tough target,
according to Bloomberg consensus
forecasts.
Scaling back to its safer roots as a
primarily corporate and trade bank,
while at the same time looking for
some expansion opportunities, is
a sensible idea. Tokyo may seem a
strange choice but considering all
those return-hungry customers, perhaps it’s not as odd as it first seems.

Danone investors get creamed by WhiteWave deal
BY JOHN FOL EY
DANONE’S US$12.5 billion
(RM49.88 billion) purchase of
WhiteWave, a soy and almond milk
maker based in the United States, is
an expensive way of buying growth.
The French dairy group can get
away with it because expanding
outside of Europe looks attractive,
and debt comes cheap.
The maker of Activia yoghurt,
which a decade ago was deemed
by France too precious to be taken
over by foreigners, will pay almost
20 times WhiteWave’s forecast Ebitda. That in itself is not outlandish,
since the US group is growing rapidly, its sales increasing at twice the
rate of Danone’s.
The trouble is that WhiteWave,
whose shareholders include activist Hudson Executive Capital
according to Eikon data, is already
trading at a full-fat valuation of 31
times the next 12 months’ estimated earnings.
Assume the company can sus-
tain a growth rate in its operating
profit of 12% each year from now
until 2020, which is when Danone
expects the synergies will come
through. Add the resulting US$666
million of operating profit to the
US$300 million of value Danone
hopes to create from the deal, tax it
at WhiteWave’s rate of 35%, and the
return for investors is just 5%, below
the target’s likely cost of capital.
That may seem at odds with
Danone investors’ initially positive response, pushing up the shares
more than 5% after the deal was announced. But that may rest on other factors, like the fact Europe may
be about to take a big hit from the
UK’s decision to leave the European Union, and WhiteWave doubles
the percentage of Danone’s sales
that comes from the United States.
Funding the deal entirely with
debt also has appeal, since expectations of future interest rates are
falling, judging by the narrowing
gap between short- and long-term
US government bond yields.
5.98
128.98
But Danone could simply gear
itself up, without paying full whack
for a rival.
WhiteWave shareholders, meanwhile, get the cream. An agreed deal
with Danone may even smoke out
a rival bid from a US food producer covetous of the rapid growth of
supposedly healthier alternatives
to milk. In that sense, the activists
at Hudson have done a good job.
Maybe as their next project, they
should buy a stake in Danone. —

PARIS: Around 40 people were
arrested in Paris on Sunday after police used tear gas and water cannon against football fans
hurling glass bottles at officers at
the Eiffel Tower during the Euro
2016 final.
Crowds of supporters, some
donning French or Portuguese
flags, gathered at the base of the
Paris landmark before and after
Portugal’s stunning 1-0 victory over France after they were
refused entry to the fan zone,
which was packed to its 90,000
capacity, Paris police said.
The base of the Eiffel Tower
was engulfed in clouds of tear
gas as riot police repelled the

PARIS: Cristiano Ronaldo wept with
sadness and joy as substitute Eder’s
extra-time goal saw Portugal beat
hosts France 1-0 in Sunday’s Euro
2016 final to win their first major
tournament.
Ronaldo was stretchered off in the
first half after being injured by Dimitri
Payet, but returned to the touchline
to see Eder’s long-range strike settle
the game at Stade de France.
“It was not the final I wanted, but
I am very happy,” Ronaldo said.
“It is a trophy for all the Portuguese, for all immigrants, all the
people who believed in us, so I am
very happy and very proud.”
Portugal centre back Pepe, voted the man of the match, said: “We
said we would win it for him and
we managed to do that.”
Twelve years after losing 1-0 to
Greece as hosts of Euro 2004, Portugal inflicted the same fate on France.
France coach Didier Deschamps
had hoped to lead his country to a
fourth major tournament win, and
third on home soil after Euro 1984
and the 1998 World Cup, when he
was captain.
But it was Portugal skipper Ronaldo who hobbled up the steps to
lift the trophy beneath a shower of
silver ticker tape.
“The disappointment is there
and it’s immense,” Deschamps told
French television.
“We’ve let a big chance to be
champions pass us by. There are
no words to describe this feeling.”

a march on his great rival Lionel
Messi, who announced his Argentina retirement two weeks ago, in the
race for the next Fifa Ballon d’Or.
Taken off in the 25th minute, he
returned at the start of extra time to
deliver on-pitch pep talks that appeared to inspire his team to victory.
Éder saw a header pushed out
by France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris,
while Raphaël Guerreiro hit the bar
from a free kick.
With 11 minutes of the extra period to play, the killer goal arrived as
Éder held off Laurent Koscielny and
drove a crisp shot into the bottom-left
corner from 25 yards (23m).
“Cristiano told me I would be scoring the winning goal,” Éder said. “He
gave me strength and positive energy.”
Ronaldo applauded
There was an early exchange of chanc-
es — Nani shooting over for Portugal,
Griezmann’s header drawing a fine
fingertip save from Rui Patrício —
before Ronaldo took centre stage.
A juddering knee-on-knee challenge by Payet in the eighth minute
left Ronaldo writhing on the turf
and after attempting to play on,
he dropped to the ground, tears
filling his eyes.
After having his left knee heavily
strapped, Ronaldo re-entered the
fray, only to go down again, flinging
his armband to the floor.
A stretcher was brought on and as
the Portugal captain was carried off,
to be replaced by Ricardo Quaresma,
the whole stadium rose to applaud.
France’s Moussa Sissoko stepped
into the spotlight vacated by Ronaldo, driving a left-foot shot over the
bar and then stinging Rui Patrício’s
palms after nutmegging Adrien Silva with a slick Cruyff turn
But it took the 58th-minute introduction of Kingsley Coman to enliven
France. The Bayern Munich winger
crossed for Griezmann to head over
and released Olivier Giroud for a shot
that Rui Patrício parried.
Rui Patrício also repelled a 25-yard
effort from Sissoko and when France
substitute André-Pierre Gignac neatly sidestepped the fit-again Pepe in
stoppage time, he could only scuff his
shot against the post. — AFP
‘Healing’ France suffers blow
BY GINA DOGGETT & GUY JACKSON
PARIS: The open-top bus for the
victory parade was ready and
President François Hollande said
France’s success at Euro 2016 was
helping the country to heal from the
Paris attacks, but the party fell flat.
Authorities had braced for mass
celebrations if France — a country
still on high terrorist alert — won
Sunday’s final against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal, but the 1-0 defeat
crushed the host nation’s hopes.
Portuguese fans were the only
ones celebrating at the Stade de
France and the 90,000 crowd at the
fan zone under the Eiffel Tower fell
silent when Éder scored Portugal’s
long-range winner.
“With everything that has happened, the attacks, the demonstrations, the economic crisis, we deserved something to make us feel
better,” said Lazaro de Santana, 31,
as he joined thousands who filed
away dejected.
The night was also scarred by disgruntled supporters’ clashing with
riot police after they were denied entry to the filled-to-capacity fan zone.
Police fired tear gas after fans pelted them with bottles. Other youths lit
a bonfire near the Eiffel Tower.
The build-up to Euro 2016 had
been overshadowed by fears of
more jihadist attacks. In the days
before it kicked off, unions disrupted trains and grounded planes and
uncollected rubbish built-up in
the streets in strikes and protests
against labour reforms.
But once the football began,
the crowds at the fan zones grew
with every match featuring France,
while restaurants and cafés showing
Les Bleus’ matches were reservation-only by the time of the final.
“The French people needed to
find their way again,” Hollande said
in a commentary on the wave of
support for the national team.
“We saw it at the time of the attacks. We came together in the dra-
mas, we had to find ourselves in the
happiness, to come together,” he
wrote in the Journal du Dimanche.
The Nov 13 attacks across Paris left
130 dead. The Stade de France, where
France were playing Germany at the
time, was one of the sites targeted by
suicide bombers along with the Bataclan concert hall and cafés.
Hollande said Didier Deschamps’ French team had been
“very marked” by the attacks.
“The attacks were the same for
them,” he wrote.
“They have decided they want
to bring joy to the French people
who experienced those events. They
want to give happiness. Deschamps
has given them this desire to make
people happy. They know that this
isn’t just any ordinary moment in
time,” Hollande said.
Hollande has recorded some
of the lowest popularity scores for
a post-war French president, but
the Socialist might still stand for
re-election next year. — AFP

is based. And for the first time in

France and Portugal meet on
Sunday in Paris, everyone was
wearing jerseys emblazoned with

Moths invade Stade de

PARIS: The Stade de France was
invaded by swarms of moths
ahead of Sunday’s Euro 2016 final between Portugal and France.
Hundreds of large black moths
flew around the stands of the
80,000-capacity stadium north
of Paris as well as by the pitch
in temperatures which even at
1830 GMT hovered around 28°C.
Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo was
seen swatting away several of
the creatures as he warmed up
while others swarmed around microphones, the corner flags and
goalposts. The decision to leave
the stadium lights on overnight
ahead of the game may help explain the bizarre invasion. — AFP

Radio penalty
costs Rosberg at
Silverstone
SILVERSTONE: British Grand
Prix runner-up Nico Rosberg
was demoted to third place after receiving a 10-second time
penalty from the Silverstone
stewards for a breach of radio communications rules on
Sunday.
Dutch teenager Max Verstappen, who finished third in
a Red Bull, has been elevated
to second following the ruling.
The altered result cut Rosberg’s lead over his teammate
Lewis Hamilton, the winner
of Sunday’s race, from four
points to one point in the drivers’ championship.
Rosberg had been under
investigation when he held a
radio dialogue with the team
to try and fix a gearbox problem during the closing stages
of the race.
In that chat, Rosberg asked
for instructions and the team’s
response was deemed to be in
breach of the strict rules introduced to stop drivers being
coached from the pit wall.
In a statement issued three
hours after Hamilton took the
chequered flag, the sport’s
ruling body, the International
Motoring Federation, said that
while some of the instructions
from Mercedes were allowable,
others were not.
“The stewards determined
that the team then went further and gave instructions to the
driver that were not permitted
— and were in breach of Article
27.1 of the Sporting Regulations,
that the driver must drive the
car alone and unaided.” — AFP

Aims to follows his second crown with a sustained run of success
BY STEV EN GRI FFI THS
LONDON: Andy Murray has
warned world No 1 Novak Djokovic his best is yet to come as the
Scot aims to follow his second Wimbledon crown with a sustained run
of success.
Murray clinched his third Grand
Slam title as he brushed aside Canada’s Milos Raonic with an imperious 6-4, 7-6 (7/3), 7-6 (7/2) victory
in Sunday’s final.
The 29-year-old is the first Briton to secure multiple All England
Club titles since Fred Perry in the
1930s and only the 12th man to
win Wimbledon more than once.
Having suffered painful defeats
in eight of his previous 10 Grand
Slam finals, the world No 2 has set
his sights on using Wimbledon as a
springboard for even more success
in the coming years.
“I still feel like my best tennis is
ahead of me, that I have an opportunity to win more,” Murray said.
“The last three months have
been some of the best I’ve played in
my career in terms of consistency.
“Everyone’s time comes at different stages. Some come in their
early 20s, some mid 20s. Hopefully

Murray has reached all three
Grand Slam finals in 2016, losing
the previous two in Australia and
France to Djokovic.
But Djokovic showed rare signs
of vulnerability in his shock Wimbledon third-round loss against
Sam Querrey, and Murray believes
he has an opportunity to establish
himself as the sport’s pre-eminent
force at a time when Roger Federer
and Rafael Nadal have struggled
with injuries and inconsistent form.
“I obviously would have loved
to have won more. Like I said earlier, the guys that I’ve been playing
against are the best three players of
all time potentially,” Murray said.

“It was really disappointing, especially at St Andrews last year, not
to be able to defend,” McIlroy said
last week.
“The last time I played The Open
I won it, so good memories, and
hopefully I can play similar to the
way I did in Liverpool and give myself a chance.”
While Tiger Woods seems to
have become yesterday’s man and
will not feature, McIlroy comes to
Troon as part of what could now
be termed golf’s “big four”.
Alongside him at the summit of
the sport are Australia’s Jason Day

winner of his first major at the US

not quick enough — simple as
that.” Vettel’s lacklustre showing saw him fall from third to

DOCKERS’
THREE DECADES OF STYLE
The brand celebrates its
historical milestone with a
new collection of wardrobe
staples that emphasise
comfort and style
BY SU A N N QUA H
S
ince Levi’s introduced Dockers in
1986, the brand has grown by leaps
and bounds, becoming a leading
brand of business casual clothing
around the world. This year, Dockers celebrates three decades of
khakis, belts, leather wallets and shoes that
have become staples with the Yes, They’re
Dockers campaign to showcase an entirely
new concept in menswear. As part of this innovative new concept, Dockers in Malaysia
is featuring four influential local personalities in the campaign — actor Remy Ishak,
singer-songwriter Henley Hii, television
personality Henry Golding and style icon
Faiz Abdul Hak.
In its latest collection, the Dockers brand
provides the essential goods for the modern
man — vital items every guy needs to complete his look no matter where his journey
takes him. Dockers is all about providing
key wardrobe staples to offer a complete
head-to-toe look, whether casual or refined
— crisp, clean and well-tailored clothing. As
men continue to adopt the slim fit trend, the
brand has been focusing on fit fabric and
finished pants, and is taking a lead when it
comes to new fit style trends.
This collection sees Dockers widening
its pants offering with styles that offer a
slimmer, sleeker and sexier silhouette. For
example, more tapered legs and lower front
rise hug your frame to create a sleek, smart
and crisp aesthetic.
One of the changes that is happening at
Dockers is the introduction of comfortable
stretch fabrics across 70% of its entire pant
portfolio. As fabric technology progresses towards more comfortable materials,
consumers are starting to demand a good
combination of presentability and comfort
— fabrics that offer great elasticity enable a
slimmer fit which is practical and functional, yet stylish.
As we are travelling more than ever before
but prefer to travel light, Dockers provides
wardrobe essentials which add flair and polish to any look — smart or casual — giving
men the confidence to go about their day
confidently and comfortably. Dockers’ new
Stretch for Performance fabric is made for
movement as the material stretches at key
areas and holds its shape for ultimate style
and comfort, so that a man can look put-together while handling whatever life throws
his way with ease. The line is perfect for
life on-the-go, and comes in every Alpha
fit, as well as 5 Pocket, Pacific On-the-Go,
Marina On-the-Go, Insignia, and Signature Collections.
In terms of visual characteristics, Dockers’
newest collection draws inspiration from
the rich textiles and colours found in and
around Catalina Island and Palm Springs in
California, reflecting the laidback tradition
of the West Coast life. The Dockers design
team, under the leadership of Doug Conklyn, found inspiration in the storied history
of Catalina Island, and the colour palette
takes its cue from the Art Deco tile world
of Hollywood’s golden age, as well as boats
and docks by the beach, faded by sun and
salt. Palm Springs — a desert oasis under
cobalt blue skies — offers colour and textile
to inspire both casual and refined styles.
The Dockers brand has always been about
style over throwaway fashion, offering a full
collection of head-to-toe looks which run
the gamut from sportswear, active-inspired
apparel as well as after-hours sophistication. The latest collection has the ability to
give comfort to guys going about their daily
business with confidence — from the coffee
shop to the conference room and then maybe out on a date, all while looking their best.

Singapore stocks — Straits Times Index
closes 1% higher at 2,876.14 points
China stocks — Shanghai stocks close
up after muted inflation data
SINGAPORE: Singapore stocks ended
yesterday stronger, thanks to an upswing in
Asian markets driven by a much strongerthan-expected jobs report in the US.
As at 5.04pm, the benchmark Straits
Times Index was up 1.02% or 29.1 points
at 2,876.14.
Advancer Global closed at 39 Singapore
cents with 41.1 million shares traded.
This was 77% higher than its initial public
offering price of 22 Singapore cents. The
stock had opened at 32.5 Singapore cents.
The manpower solutions and facilities
management provider intends to use
S$6.4 million to expand its business into
complementary services and overseas
markets.
Cogent Holdings closed 0.8% higher at
64.5 Singapore cents after being queried
by the Singapore Exchange for the unusual
increase in its share price in the last few
sessions. The provider of warehousing
and container depot and transportation
management services says it isn’t aware
of a reason.
AsiaPhos closed 2.3% higher at nine
Singapore cents. The company says it has
received approval for the renewal of its Feng
Tai exploration rights for the exploration of
barite rocks in an area of 12.43 sq km in
China’s Sichuan province. The new licence
is valid from Dec 12, 2015 to Dec 12, 2017.
SHANGHAI: China stocks closed up
yesterday, shedding some early gains
but still finishing in the black.
The blue-chip CSI 300 Index rose 0.3%
to 3,203.33 points, while the Shanghai
Composite Index gained 0.23%, to 2,994.92.
“Recently the market has been doing
relatively well. One factor is the pullback
in the inflation data released over the
weekend. Another is that recent corporate
earnings forecasts have given a good
impression,” said Zhang Qi, analyst at
Haitong Securities in Shanghai.
Consumer prices in June grew at their
slowest pace since January, while producer
prices extended their decline, reinforcing
economists’ views more support was
needed to help the economy.
June prices rose 1.9% from a year
earlier, slightly faster than estimates but
down from the pace in May, and producer
prices fell 2.6%, more than the 2.5% fall
forecast in a Reuters poll.
“On a monthly basis, consumer price
index and producer price index dropped
by 0.1% and 0.2%, respectively, illustrating
a softening trend and in line with the
weakening growth profile,” wrote Zhou
Hao, senior emerging market economist
at Commerzbank in Singapore in a note
following the inflation data Sunday.
“Further policy easing is still on the cards,

jumped 4% yesterday after US stocks rose
and the country’s ruling coalition won a
landslide victory in upper house elections,
boosting confidence in the market.
The Nikkei ended at 15,708.82 points, a
one-week closing high, after earlier touching
its highest intraday levels since June 24.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s coalition
victory is expected to bolster his grip over
the conservative party, which he led back
to power in 2012 promising to revive the
economy with hyper-easy monetary policy,
fiscal spending and reforms.
“Abe continues a winning streak, giving
him a mandate from the Japanese voters
to continue LDP (Liberal Democratic
Party) policies,” said Hiroki Allen, chief
representative of Superfund Japan in Tokyo.
While there were no measurable effects on
the market of the Bernanke news, there was
an “overall positive impression that the Bank
of Japan (BoJ) is open to ideas,” Allen said.
Yesterday, former US Federal Reserve
chairman Ben Bernanke visited the BoJ,
according to a Reuters witness.
Government sources told Reuters last
Friday that Bernanke, who steered the US
through its worst financial crisis in modern
times, would meet with BoJ Governor
Haruhiko Kuroda and Prime Minister Shinzo

and we hold our view that the People’s
Bank of China will cut both interest rates
and reserve requirement ratio this month.”
Recent commentaries in state media
have indicated that China’s economy still
needs more fiscal support, but money supply
would likely grow slower in the second half
following record lending earlier in 2016.
China’s annual inflation rate in June was
1.9%, the lowest level since January, according
to figures released over the weekend.
But finance shares lagged in the afternoon,
with the CSI 300 financial services down
0.2% on news that the banking regulator
was investigating risks in the bill-financing
business of some commercial banks.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong shares finished
higher yesterday after a strong US labour
report buoyed global stocks and muted
China inflation data boosted expectations for
further economic stimulus in the mainland.
In the US, employers added a seasonally
adjusted 287,000 jobs in June a Friday
report showed, much stronger-thanexpected and easing fears about a major
slowdown in the US economy.
The Hang Seng Index rose 1.54% to
20,880.5 points, while the China Enterprises
Index gained 2% to 8,703.

US dollar gains ahead of yen
on hopes of more stimulus
Klibor
The US dollar climbed almost 2% against the
yen yesterday following a surge in Japan’s
stock market, after the country’s ruling
coalition won a clear victory in upper house
elections, fuelling expectations of more
monetary stimulus.
The US dollar hit a four-month high against a
basket of major currencies, having already been
given a lift by a bumper US jobs report last Friday
which saw investors price back in the chance of
an increase in interest rates by the US Federal
Reserve before the end of the year.
The US dollar rose as much as 1.9% on
the day to ¥102.48, its biggest one-day rise
in almost three months. It fell as low as ¥99
on June 24 in the aftermath of Britain’s shock
vote to leave the European Union, which
drove investors to the Japanese currency
and other safe havens. — Reuters

Oil falls further under US$50
on Asia demand concern
Oil fell yesterday over signs that US shale
drillers have adapted to lower prices and on
renewed indications of economic weakness
in Asia where refiners are already trimming
crude runs.
Brent crude was trading at US$46.27
per barrel, down 49 US cents from its last
settlement. Meanwhile, US crude was down
51 US cents at US$44.90 a barrel.
Physical markets were also under
pressure. Rising Canadian oil flows are having
difficulty finding space in pipelines, weighing
on Canadian prices.
Iran set the official selling price of its light
grade for Asia at US$0.45 above the Oman/
Dubai average for August, down 40 US cents
on the month. Traders said the lower prices
were a result of Asian refiners beginning to
cut crude orders, and also due to the region’s
economic slowdown. — Reuters

KUALA LUMPUR: The FBM KLCI climbed 9.33 points or 0.6%
to 1,653.87 yesterday, tracking Japan’s Nikkei 225’s 3.98%
jump after Japan’s ruling coalition won the parliament’s
Upper House election.
The win led to expectation of fiscal stimulus for Japan’s
economy. World share markets also reacted to better-thanexpected US jobs report.
Across Asian share markets, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng
Index rose 1.54%, while South Korea’s Kospi gained 1.3%. Top gainers and losers (ranked by percentage)
