One of the points of interest to be raised:
Company	Points/Issues to Be Raised
Sinotop Holdings Bhd (AGM)	Proposed Corporate Exercises by Sinotoop (page 10 of the Annual Report 2019):   Be Top Group Limited (BTG) and its subsidiary Top Textile (Suzhou) Co. Ltd (TTS) was acquired for RM 393.229 million from Mr Pan Ding and Mr Pan Dong in September 2009 (page 13 of the annual report 2009). Why is BTG and its subsidiary, TTS, being sold to Gifted Investment Limited (GIL) whose owners are Mr Pan Ding and Mr Pan Dong for RM70 million only? Please explain how this fulfills the duty and responsibility of the Board in relation to long term value-creation for the shareholders. Why was the proposed Acquisition of Axianmax Corporation Sdn Bhd terminated?
FGV Holdings Bhd (EGM)	Resolution 4 tabled payment of directors’ fee in advance prior to the closing of the financial year 2019. Given that the financial results of FGV for 1H2019 continues to deteriorate to a loss of RM57 million from a profit of RM9 million in the last corresponding period, please justify payment of directors’ fee in advance taking into consideration the performance target of the Board and the interest of the shareholders.
Parkson Holdings Bhd (AGM)	The Group has RM2.26 billion worth of loans and borrowings that will mature in more than one year and less than two years. How does Parkson plan to repay the debt?
Inari Amertron Bhd (AGM)	1.  Dato’ Dr. Tan Seng Chuan, the Executive Vice Chairman of Inari is also the Executive Director of Insas Berhad and Diversified Gateway Solutions Berhad.      As the Executive Vice Chairman of the Company, Dato’ Dr. Tan Seng Chuan is expected to devote his full-time commitment to Inari as he is drawing salary, bonus and other benefits under the contract of service with the Company.      Please explain how Dato’ Dr. Tan Seng Chuan manages his time commitment to the Company vis-à-vis his position as Executive Director of Insas Berhad and Diversified Gateway Solutions Berhad given that all three are executive positions that require full-time commitment. 2.   Dato’ Wong Gian Kui, the Executive Director of Inari is also the Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer of Insas Berhad and the Executive Director of Ho Hup Construction Company Berhad.     As the Executive Director of the Company, Dato’ Wong Gian Kui is expected to devote his full-time commitment to Inari as he is drawing salary, bonus and other benefits under the contract of service with the Company.     Please explain how Dato’ Wong Gian Kui manages his time commitment to the Company vis-à-vis his position of Executive Director of Insas Berhad and Ho Hup Construction Company Berhad given that all three are executive positions that require full-time commitment.
Jaya Tiasa Holdings Bhd (AGM)	The finance cost for the group increased from RM 53.63 million in FY2018 to RM RM55.08 million in FY2019 (8.6% of revenue). (refer page 61 Annual Report). What are the plans to reduce the finance cost going forward? What are the reasons for the high financing cost despite Bank Negara reducing its OPR rate in FY2019?
Bonia Corporation Bhd (AGM)	Based on page 197 of the Annual Report, approximately RM5.172 million of trade receivable were provided as “third party impairment in FY2019” as compared to RM4.637 million in FY2018. Could the Board provide breakdown? What are the reasons for the increase? How much of these impaired and amounts have been recovered to-date?
Malaysia Pacific Corporation Bhd (AGM)	The Group’s Property Development segment recorded a slightly higher revenue in FY2019(RM8.77 million) as compared to FY 2018(RM8.71 million). However, the loss before tax was RM6.4 million in FY 2019 as compared to a profit before tax of RM6.0 million in FY 2018. (Pages 121 and 122 of the Annual Report) What were the reasons for the loss in FY 2019? What is the outlook of the Property Development segment in FY 2020?
Perisai Petroleum Teknologi Bhd (AGM)	Practice Note 17 Bursa Securities granted the Company an extension of time up to 31 December 2019 for the Company to submit a new regularisation plan to the relevant authorities for approval. What is the progress on the regularisation plan? Is the Company in a position to meet the deadline?
INSAS Berhad (AGM)	Para 8 (page 220, Annual Report) reads as follows: Directors’ Recommendation Your Directors are of the opinion that the Proposed Share Buy-Back is in the best interest of the Company and accordingly recommend you vote in favour of the ordinary resolution 7 to be tabled at the 57th AGM. But yet the Company states under Para 6 (page 220) as follows: The Company does not intend to undertake the Proposed Share Buy-Back such that it will trigger any obligation on the Major Shareholders and/or person acting in concert with them to undertake a mandatory general offer pursuant to the Code. Why is the Company proposing a share buy-back resolution and at the same time stating that it will not be carrying out the share buy-back as it may trigger an obligation of the Major Shareholder? Is it not the Board’s fiduciary duty to the Company and collective interest of all shareholders instead of watching-out for the major shareholder?
Seacera Group Bhd (AGM)	Practice Note 17 (PN17) Seacera has become an affected listed issuer under PN17 on 26 April 2019. Therefore, the Company has to submit its regularisation plan to the relevant authorities for approval within 12 months from 26 April 2019 to 26 April 2020. What is the progress on the regularisation plan? Is the Company in a position to meet the deadline?
Supermax Corporation Bhd (AGM)	We understand that the founder of Supermax, Dato' Seri Stanley Thai has vacated the office of director in the Company since November 2017. However according to media report (Focus Malaysia, issue 351, September 14 – 20, 2019), Dato’ Seri responded to media and analyst’s queries on Supermax during a briefing held in September 2019. In what capacity had Dato’ Seri represent Supermax when engaging with media and analysts?
Idimension Consolidated Bhd (AGM)	We note the Company purchased additional motor vehicles amounting to RM409,828 (Note 11, page 90 of AR2019). Given that iDimension is an IT company and is making losses amounting to RM16.9 million (2018: RM18.5 million), what is the justification to purchase additional motor vehicles? How many motor vehicles were purchased (and models) during the financial year ended 2019? The Group has been denied access to its wholly-owned subsidiary, IDB’s documents and information, and as such the Group was unable to verify the financial information of IDB for the previous financial reporting period (Note 14(e), page 101 of AR2019).      As a result of the above, IDB was deconsolidated.   What was the total cost of investment in IDB? Why was the Group denied access to IDB’s documents and information, given that IDB has been the Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary since March 2015?
Nexgram Holdings Bhd (EGM)	In relation to the proposed debt settlement with Capital Day Holdings Sdn Bhd,  Nextnation Network Sdn Bhd (“Nextnation”), a former wholly-owned subsidiary of Nexgram had assigned the refund of the earnest deposit and advance payment of RM800,000 to the Company (Section 4.2 page 5 & 6 of the Circular dated 7 November 2019(“Circular”)). Why did the Group (Nexgram and Nextnation) not ‘ring fence’ the earnest deposit and advance payment of RM800,000 knowing that there may be a need to refund the monies if the MOUs fail? What has happened to the RM800,000 which by right should have been held in trust/escrow?

MCT BERHAD ("MCT") OR THE "COMPANY")

STATUS ANNOUNCEMENT ON PUBLIC SHAREHOLDING SPREAD REQUIREMENT PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH 3.3 OF PRACTICE NOTE 19 OF THE MAIN MARKET LISTING REQUIREMENTS OF BURSA MALAYSIA SECURITIES BERHAD

As at 15 November 2019, the public shareholdings spread was 24.59%. The Company currently does not meet the requirement as set out in paragraph 8.02(1) of the Listing Requirements which states that a listed issuer must ensure that at least 25% of its total listed shares (excluding treasury shares) are in the hands of public shareholders.

To rectify the non-compliance with the Required Public Spread, the Company is exploring various options including:

a. Discussing with the Company’s major shareholders on the possibility of selling-down its shareholding to public shareholders;

b. Engaging with investment banks to identify potential public investors to increase public spread via a private placement; and

c. Intensifying communication with potential investors, analysts, research houses and shareholders to instil investor confidence and create better awareness and understanding of the Company’s business to increase take up of shares while retaining public shareholders in the Company.

The Company will continue to monitor the level of public shareholdings and make the necessary announcement in relation to the status of compliance with the Required Public Spread in accordance with the Listing Requirements.
