Some Memories

Dividend yield of 2.3% based on the RM 3 IPO price - is too low. Really need to review this stock again. "However, the current dividend yield is not that exciting and though the yield, at 2% , should jump to 3% in one or two years, it may not be exciting enough" he added. Affin valued Astro's dividend yield for the financial year 2015 to be 3.1%, from the current 2.3% calculated based on the RM3 IPO price. Source: The Star

Maxis mobile line network coverage at my home area has been deteriorating. Many complains have been to Maxis but so far no action from Maxis to rectify the issue. Thus am considering to change to Celcom once I find out more infos and if switching telco will help. Not considering DiGi as used to have bad experience on the network coverage and likely up to EDGE speed only. Maxis's strong points and why I have been with it: Cheap IDD to Singapore (via IDD 132) Credit sharing among the Family lines Best postpaid package in town - spending about RM 90 monthly for voice 333 mins (assume average RM 0.15/min) and data 500 MB Some consolation points: Network coverage is only bad at home area. Other areas are fine Have home Internet and land line as backup

I thought it will go up to around RM 3.30 (10%) but looks like the sentiment is not encouraging. (Reuters) - Pay-TV firm Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd closed flat in a weak market debut Friday on concerns its valuation was too high, underperforming other recent big listings as Kuala Lumpur's booming IPO market looked set to lose steam next year. But after such a robust 2012, and with Astro's $1.5 billion sale marking the last major listing until the first quarter of next year, the market is expected to cool off. Astro shares rose as much as 3.7 percent before erasing gains to close at 3.00 ringgit, unchanged from the offer price in Malaysia's third-biggest IPO this year. Analysts polled by Reuters had expected a rise of at least 6 percent. The IPO by Astro, controlled by Malaysia's second-richest man Ananda Krishnan, followed Felda Global Ventures Holdings Bhd's $3.3 billion offering in June and IHH Healthca...

It's very disheartened to read this - time to reflect. Old, abandoned — and they only have each other KUALA LUMPUR: Many of the abandoned senior citizens have lost hope of ever seeing their families again, but some have not lost faith in each other. After arriving at the Tong Sim old folks home from various hospitals, they have put their skills to good use to help one another. Owner Cheong Loy said most of the 52 inmates were sent to the centre located above a casket shop in Sungei Besi when the hospitals could not trace their family members. "In most cases, family members gave false addresses and contact numbers. The hospitals asked us to take them in," he said at the home. However, instead of depending on outsiders to care for them, they now work together to keep the home running. Although volunteers regularly donate food and help clean up the place, the residents themselves do most of the household chores. "Those who are fit help to feed an...

Under Budget 2013, the Government has proposed the RPGT from the disposal of properties made within a period not exceeding two years from the date of purchase will be taxed at the rate of 15% and at 10% for disposal of property within a period of two to five years. This represents an increase from the present RPGT regime, where RPGT of 10% is applied to properties held and disposed of within two years, and a rate of 5% was maintained for properties sold within the third, fourth and fifth years after purchase.
