The government announced new growth and fiscal deficit targets for this year,
budget cuts to operating expenditure as well as various stimulus measures to
bolster the resilience of the economy amid the steep fall in oil prices, volatile
capital flows and fragile global outlook. Real GDP growth outlook was revised
down to 4.5-5.5% (vs. 5.0-6.0% previously). The fiscal deficit target was
lowered to -3.2% of GDP (vs. -3.0% under Budget 2015), while reaffirming that
fiscal consolidation efforts remain on track. The revised deficit targets were no
surprise as we expected the government to manage the deficit within a tight
range through various means of revenue enhancements and expenditure cuts.
The government’s proactive measures will help to allay some fears, though we
expect the overall market sentiment to remain cautious.
Strategy Flash Note - Marketing in Asia
We spent the past two weeks marketing to 195 investors and 60 investment
firms in Asia our 2015 macroeconomic and strategy outlook. Investors were
mostly underweighted in Malaysia and cited the country's fiscal position,
currency and large foreign fixed income holdings as their key concerns. We, too,
share these concerns, which explains our end-2015 KLCI target of 1,800pts.
There could be downside to the target if corporate earnings fall short of our 8%
EPS growth estimate. Our preferred sectors include construction, transport and
utilities. We also still like selected smaller caps with strong balance sheets,
robust earnings prospects and solid business models.
Construction - Risks from Budget cuts removed
The Prime Minister's speech on the revised Budget 2015 today contained good
news for the overall sector- the RM49bn development expenditure (DE) is
intact despite the fall in oil prices. This confirms our stance that the
government would keep public transport and other major infra contracts as
priorities. This news should remove the overhang on construction share prices,
most of which have declined since late-2014 due to fears of a major cutback in
infra spending. We recommend investors to be selective. Gamuda remains our
top big-cap pick due to its exposure to the MRT and Penang transport infra
projects. Muhibbah continues to be our preferred small/mid-cap stock in view
of the pending awards from Rapid and Pengerang. Maintain Overweight.

temporary and many assets such as ministry buses which were eight years

Fraser & Neave Holdings Bhd (F&N) is confident of maintaining high
double digits growth for its financial year ending Sept 30, 2015 amid the
downtrend in the ringgit and the upcoming Goods & Services Tax (GST).

F&N CEO Lim Yew Hoe said the strengthening of dollar against ringgit
favours the group's export business as its products was traded in US dollar.

Malaysia, they consist about 20% of the dairy Malaysia sales," said Lim, who
noted the group is currently enjoying the savings from its dairy products
which is off from the historical price hikes.

would be only in short term as he sees its business a necessary commodity
in which the demand will be constant going forward. (Sun)

shareholders' approval was not required. (sun)

The AirAsia Indonesia Flight QZ8501 plane that crashed last month was
climbing at an abnormally rapid rate, before it plunged and disappeared
from radar, Indonesia’s transport minister has said. Ignasius Jonan told
parliament that radar data showed the Airbus A320 was climbing at about
6,000ft a minute before it disappeared on 28 December. “It is not normal to
climb like that, it’s very rare for commercial planes, which normally climb just
1,000 to 2,000ft per minute,” he said. “It can only be done by a fighter jet.” He
did not say what was believed to have caused the plane to climb so rapidly. In
their last contact with air traffic controllers, the pilots of AirAsia flight 8501
asked to climb from 32,000ft to 38,000ft to avoid threatening clouds, but were
denied permission because of heavy air traffic. Four minutes later the plane
disappeared. No distress signal was received.

An excessively rapid ascent is likely to cause a plane to go into an
aerodynamic stall. In 2009, an Air France Airbus A330 disappeared over
the Atlantic Ocean while flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris. Investigators
were able to determine from the jet’s black boxes that the plane began a
steep climb and then went into a stall from which the pilots were unable to
recover. (Guardian)
Investigators examining the cockpit voice recorder of the crashed AirAsia
QZ8501 jet said Tuesday they were considering whether human error or
problems with the plane caused the accident, after ruling out terrorism.
Indonesia's National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC), which is
probing the crash, said that it will release a preliminary report on 28 January.
In initial analysis of the cockpit voice recorder, NTSC investigators said they did
found no indication that terrorism had caused the crash and are now looking at
other causes.

"We didn't hear any other person, no explosion," investigator Nurcahyo
Utomo told reporters, explaining why terrorism had been ruled out. He
added that investigators were now looking at the “possibility of plane
damage and human factors”, without giving further details. (AFP)
