Thanks stitch, I guess it is 'stay tuned' then ? We'll do. One reason I cancelled my 'buy' order this morning was that I thought I wait until I hear from 'our man in Malaysia'.<gg>

Say how is DELL dong in Malaysia these days? Is the PC industry in the tank like everything else or you see any silver-lining anywhere for high tech?? Any input will be appreciated.

Stitch, Mohan

<<<<Some also suggested that the Employees' Provident Fund is expected to lend a hand to RHB to fund the acquisition and the capital injection that might be needed.>>> READ Malaysian gov't.

This AM on the ASia Business Review (CNN) several analyst are questioning whether this is really a bail out by the Feds. RHB has no credibility now in the financial markets. (One reason they tried to recapitalize thru the Commerce Bank Merger).

I wouldn't plan on this happening soon at the very best.

As I mentioned on an earlier post Fair value is determined to be M$3.50 as of 15 Feb. for SDarby. This was prior to the announcement of the huge losses at Sime Bank. With the Ringgit headed to higher levels vs. the US dollar this would equate - at best - to .875 cents US, PRIOR to the debacle at Sime Bank. Beware of any valuation over 50 cents US. Just my opinion.
