A July research report by Jones Lang LaSalle Inc predicted prices for space in prime locations will drop 15% to 20% in Hong Kong this year. Retail rents were down 12% in Causeway Bay and 3% in Central at the end of June, Oriental Daily reported earlier this month, citing data from CBRE Group Inc. The broker said in a report that the decline came after rents for shops at prime locations in Hong Kong’s four shopping districts, including Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok, increased Colourmix will rent JaegerLeCoultre’s 92.9sq m space in Russell Street, Causeway Bay for almost HK$1 million per month, which is 43% lower than what JaegerLeCoultre is currently paying. by 213% from 2003 to 2014. Hong Kong’s retail property market has slumped with China facing its slowest growth in a quarter-century. The Hong Kong government is closely monitoring developments in the city’s property market and will make policy changes if necessary, Financial Secretary John Tsang told reporters yesterday. Hong Kong’s property prices are being affected by an increase in supply and volatile external factors such as a high probability that the United States may raise interest rates, Tsang said. Colourmix, run by Veeko Inter- national Holdings Ltd, will rent a 92.9sq m space in Causeway Bay for almost HK$1 million (RM567,700) per month, 43% lower than what luxury Swiss watch brand Jaeger-LeCoultre is currently paying, said Wong, whose company handled the transaction. In Central, Hong Kong’s business district, Adidas Hong Kong Ltd will pay 23% less for the space being vacated by Coach Hong Kong Ltd, according to Land Registry data. The sports brand’s rent is HK$4.34 million a month, down from HK$5.6 million paid by Coach, the designer handbag maker. — Bloomberg Suzuki sells VW shares to Porsche BY M ASUM I S U G A TOKYO/BERLIN: Suzuki Motor Corp said it sold all the shares it held in Volkswagen AG to Porsche Automobil Holding SE, following the end of a four-year dispute over a failed partnership with Volkswagen. The Japanese carmaker will book a ¥36.7 billion (RM1.34 billion) onetime gain for the July-to-September quarter from the sale, the Hamamatsu-based company said on Saturday in a statement filed to the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Suzuki sold the 4.397 million Volkswagen shares for an undisclosed amount, and will disclose a revised earnings outlook if it sees the need, the statement said. Porsche sees the purchase of the shares, equal to a 1.5% stake, “as a clear commitment to our core investment” in Volkswagen, the Stuttgart, Germany-based company said in a separate statement on Saturday. It now holds 52.2% of Volkswagen’s common shares and 32.4% of its capital stock, according to the statement. Suzuki this month confirmed that Volkswagen has sold back all the shares it held in the carmaker for ¥460.3 billion. The deal comes after arbitrators upheld Suzuki’s request to end the cooperation between the two companies under a 2009 agreement. Rather than pursue other partnerships, Suzuki has been urged to focus on its dominant India operations and Maruti subsidiary by Daniel Loeb, whose hedge fund Third Point LLC has disclosed it bought a stake in the carmaker. — Bloomberg More airports badly affected by smoke, low visibility KUALA LUMPUR: Air traffic at some airports in the country were affected by the smoke which has enveloped much of the country’s airspace yesterday. The airports badly affected were the Sultan Azlan Shah Airport (LTSAS) in Ipoh and the Kuching International Airport (KIA) in Sarawak. Despite the low visibility caused by the smoke, operations at the KLIA, klia2 and Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (LTSAAS) in Subang went on as usual, with no flight delays or route changes as at 1pm. According to Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd’s (MAHB) corporate communications department, the terminal operating division at LTSAAS in Subang was reported to be running normally up to 1pm, with visibility there at 800m at the time. However, according to MAHB’s Twitter page after 1pm, several flights were reported to be delayed at LTSAAS, and MAHB advised passengers using the terminal to contact their respective airlines for the latest flight information. “While the airport is still open, all passengers arriving and departing from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang are advised to check with the respective airlines on the flight schedules as some flights have been delayed,” MAHB said. In Ipoh, six flights — three departures and three arrivals — at LTSAS were delayed due to the severely poor air quality and poor visibility yesterday. In Kuching, eight Malaysia Airlines Bhd flights were cancelled and nine others suffered delays and detours due to the haze with visibility just up to 1,500m as of 5pm. KIA senior manager Mohd Nadzim Hashim said the eight flights were cancelled until further notice, four departures and four arrivals. He said nine other flights experienced delays — involving five departures and four arrivals while flight MH2542 from Kuala Lumpur was diverted to Sibu Airport. According to him, two flights, an arrival and a departure for the Kuching-Pontianak sector had been on hold for the past five days. — Bernama VW bungles restart with new CEO from old guard BY OLAF STO RBEC K LONDON: Matthias Mueller is the wrong chief executive officer (CEO) for Volkswagen. The scandal-hit German carmaker last Friday appointed the 62-year-old CEO of its brand Porsche to replace Martin Winterkorn, who resigned days earlier after VW admitted tampering with its cars to falsify regulatory emissions tests. Just as with new chairman Hans Dieter Poetsch, it has chosen an insider when it should have looked beyond its Wolfsburg base. Mueller knows the gigantic carmaker inside out, and has what it takes to fix operational woes. But having been at the group since the late 1970s, he is also a deeply entrenched member of the Wolfsburg old guard. His insider status suggests he is an imperfect investigator of the scandal. From 2007 and 2010, he was the group’s head of product management, responsible for all vehicle projects of the Volkswagen brand. The company started to fit diesel cars with so-called “defeat devices” that manipulated emission tests in 2009. VW’s supervisory board has stressed that the new CEO is personally untainted by the wrongdoing. Investors have no choice but to take its word. But given VW’s investigation is in its early days, it still seems an unnecessary risk, especially as a well-versed auto manager with no Wolfsburg history was readily available. Herbert Diess, the new head of VW’s passenger-car group, was poached from rival BMW earlier this year. The scope of the misconduct is massive, and the scandal is still evolving. This week, Volkswagen has admitted 20% of all its passenger cars sold from 2009 to 2014 might be affected by the emissions manipulations. Last Friday, Germany’s transport minister Alexander Dobrindt said VW falsified emission data of light commercial vehicles too. Switzerland banned the sale of affected models. And Bloomberg reported on the same day that executives in Wolfsburg controlled key aspects of the rigged emissions tests, referring to three unnamed people familiar with the company’s US operations. See related story on Page 24 Winterkorn’s speedy exit was the right move. But the departed CEO is still around, as CEO of Porsche SE, the holding company that owns 50.7% of VW voting shares. The group as a whole urgently needed a proper restart to cope with the emission scandal. For now, it does not look like it is getting one. — Reuters M O N DAY S E P T E MB E R 28 , 2015 • T HEED G E FINA NCIA L DAILY 5 6 HOME BUSINESS M ON DAY SEP TEM B ER 28, 2 0 1 5 • TH EEDGE F I N AN C I AL DAI LY LTAT keen on Bandar Malaysia? No decision yet but it will be involved in the multibillion ringgit development — source BY C Y NTHI A B L E M IN KUALA LUMPUR: Lembaga Tabung Angkatan Tentera (LTAT) is said to be keen on taking part in 1Malaysia Development Bhd’s (1MDB) multibillion-ringgit Bandar Malaysia development, according to sources familiar with the project. “There is no decision yet on those shortlisted for the development, but LTAT will be involved,” said one source. It was not known at press time the role that the Armed Forces Fund would play in the development of Bandar Malaysia, where the former Sungai Besi airbase was previously located. CH Williams Talhar and Wong Sdn Bhd (WTW), the transaction adviser for the Bandar Malaysia request for proposal, announced earlier this month that four preferred bidders were shortlisted from 12 proposals submitted for the development of Bandar Malaysia. The submission closed on Aug 28. It is said that a Chinese-based company is among the four shortlisted bidders for the mega development, which will be home to the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high-speed rail terminus, as well as the mass rap- id transit Line 2 and Line 3. According to WTW’s statement, the shortlist would be presented to 1MDB’s board for approval. The four bidders would then undergo a detailed due diligence, clarification and negotiation process with 1MDB Real Estate Sdn Bhd and WTW before a final recommendation is made to the investment fund’s board. 1MDB Real Estate is a wholly-owned unit of 1MDB, which takes charge of the development. When contacted, WTW deputy managing director Danny Yeo said: “[It is an] ongoing process of clarifi- SKP Resources sees RM2.3b annual sales by FY17 BY C H ESTER TAY KUALA LUMPUR: Electronics cum plastic parts manufacturer SKP Resources Bhd expects to achieve an annual revenue of RM2.3 billion by the financial year ending March 31, 2017 (FY17), with a targeted average profit margin of 7.5%. “We just closed FY15 with about RM600 million [revenue]. For FY16, we will probably do RM1.3 billion, and then followed by about RM2.3 billion in FY17,” the group’s executive director Ivan Gan Poh San told The Edge Financial Daily after the group’s annual general meeting last Friday. Gan explained that FY16 sales would be driven by consolidation of the businesses that it had acquired from sister company Tecnic Group Bhd, which was just concluded earlier this year. The move was to enable SKP Resources to transform into a more diversified player in the plastics industry. The group is justifiably confident about its FY17 target as it has already clinched two five-year contracts this year totalling RM5 billion from its major customer, British-based Dyson Ltd. The group is justifiably confident about its FY17 target as it has clinched two five-year contracts this year totalling RM5 billion. Recall that on May 18, the group bagged a RM2 billion job from Dyson to manufacture the latter’s new cordless vacuum cleaner.

Further, Gan, who is also son of SKP Resources and Tecnic’s common controlling shareholder Datuk Gan Kim Huat, revealed that SKP Resources’ current average profit margin across all its assembly lines is about 7% to 7.2%, and that the management intends to raise the figure to 7.5% by FY17 by enhancing the group’s production efficiency. “As of now, we are not in talks for additional orders yet. This is because we are putting more attention on the businesses on hand as the company has grown so much [after acquiring Tecnic’s businesses],” Gan said when asked if SKP Resources is in any talks for more jobs. “Of course we will still proactively seek to replenish our orders, but with this significant growth of business size, we will concentrate on more improvements [in efficiencies] first,” Gan said. Still, Gan said there is potential for more jobs from Dyson, as the latter is investing £1.5 billion (RM10.02 billion) into research and development over the next four years. “This will indirectly create a lot of new products, so these will be things that hopefully SKP Resources 0.5 0 Sept 29, 2014 The project has attracted some 40 interested investors including government-linked companies, local developers and foreign state investment corporations for the expression of interest.

Revenue ballooned 84.51% to RM243.06 million from RM131.74 million in 1QFY15. Last Friday, SKP Resources shares (fundamental: 2.1; valuation: 1.1) closed unchanged at RM1.35, with a market capitalisation of RM1.46 billion.

KUALA LUMPUR: Delays in goods and services tax (GST) refunds caused by teething problems have stoked the ire of many business owners who were expecting their tax money back within 14 business days as promised by the government. But things are improving now, according to deputy director-general of customs Datuk Subromaniam Tholasy. Subromaniam told The Edge Financial Daily that the refund process had improved drastically after the Customs Department worked through the initial teething issues. “During the first month of operation in April, only about 20% of claims were refunded within 14 working days. However, by July, we improved that figure to 42%, while 54% of claims were refunded between 15 and 30 working days. Only 4% of refunds were taking more than 30 days,” explained Subromaniam. Likewise, businesses should already be noticing the quicker refunds. “In the first few months [of the implementation of the GST], it would take about two months for our clients to receive the GST refund. It has since improved with some clients getting a refund within a month,” said Wong Poh Geng, Deloitte Malaysia’s tax director for GST. With more than half of the claims refunded between 15 and 30 working days, is it good enough? After all, delays in refunds could possibly strangle business owners’ cash flow. Subromaniam, however, argues that the Customs Department is already performing exceptionally well given the circumstances. “You have to appreciate that the refund target of 14 days was a very ambitious one to begin with. Elsewhere around the world, the average refund time is 56 days,” he pointed out, citing the findings of a KPMG survey — VAT/GST Refunds Survey 2014. In Australia and Germany, for example, it takes about 15 to 28 working days to get a GST refund. In fact, in about 15% of countries surveyed, no refund is given. That said, Singapore is able to provide refunds within 14 business days, but keep in mind that this figure only refers to businesses within their normal operating phase. It typically takes longer for new businesses to get refunds, and from the Customs Department’s perspective, it is dealing with a lot of new faces — companies it doesn’t have track records of. “Before this, with the SST (sales and service tax), we dealt with around 63,000 companies. We knew these companies well, knew the businesses and had their track records. With [the] GST, we suddenly had to deal with 390,000 companies,” explained Subromaniam. “The refunds can’t be given automatically. Each claim has to be processed by an officer and checked by another. This is to make sure that the claims are genuine and filed properly. The government can’t just be [simply] handing out money,” he pointed out. Naturally, it takes a little longer to process claims when Customs is not familiar with the company. Adding to the delay is that most businesses are still learning how to file their claims. Among the top reasons for refund delays was errors in the claims, said Subromaniam. At the same time, he highlighted the fact that about one quarter of the claims were for very small amounts — less than RM500. Going forward, Customs will only refund claims that cumulatively amount to more than RM500, he added. “For us, it takes the same amount of manpower to process every claim, whether it is a few ringgit or several thousand ringgit. Someone needs to look into each claim. We have since re-prioritised to focus on the larger claims first. You’ll have to have cumulative claims of more than RM500 before we pay a refund,” he explained. That said, there is still room for improvement, Subromaniam admitted, but he believes the 14-day target can be achieved going forward. HOME BUSINESS 7 M ON DAY S E P T E MB E R 28 , 2015 • T HEED G E FINA NCIA L DAILY Food-exporting counters find favour as ringgit falls Amid seemingly endless oil price rout, commodities slump BY ESTHER L EE KUALA LUMPUR: Export-oriented counters seem to be the flavour of the year as the ringgit continues falling against the US dollar amid a seemingly endless oil price rout and commodities slump. Year to date, the ringgit has depreciated 25.4% against the US dollar. Last Friday, it ended the trading hours at 4.3863 against the greenback, and at 3.0808 against the Singapore dollar. Aside from glove makers, semiconductor companies and furniture exporters, food manufacturers with overseas market exposure have also been making a tidy profit from the favourable exchange rate, sparking investor interest as they scorn old favourites like oil and gas counters. One such counter is snack food and confectionery manufacturer Oriental Food Industries Holdings Bhd (fundamental: 2.8; valuation: 1.1), the producer of the famous cheese-flavoured Super Ring corn-based snack and Jacker potato chips, which has seen its year-to-date share price more than double (up 117.4%) to RM1.50 last Friday. The company derives more revenue from its overseas market compared with local market. In its financial year 2015, overseas sales made up 54.7% of its total revenue, while the domestic market contributed the remaining 45.3%. “Potato-based products are the largest contributor to Oriental Food’s export market as 70% of the potato chips produced are exported,” said Kenanga Research in its report dated April 16, 2015. In its first quarter ended June 30, 2015 (1QFY16), Oriental Food’s revenue declined 6.4% to RM56.65 million from RM60.55 million in the previous year, as local demand for snack food declined. But lower cost of sales, cheaper selling, distribution and administrative expenses — together with significant gains from foreign exchange — were enough to compensate for the lower local sales contribution and pushed its 1QFY16 net profit up by 88% to RM6.09 million, almost double that of RM3.24 million seen in 1QFY15. The latest quarter also showed that its home market contributed only RM22.21 million or 39% of total revenue, while its overseas market trumped it with RM34.45 Oriental Food Industries Holdings Bhd RM 2.0 Vol (mil) 8 Unlike Oriental Food and Apollo Food, Kawan Food saw a growth in both its revenue and net profits in its latest quarterly financials. Photo by Patrick Goh million revenue, or 61% — comprising 42% from Asian markets ex-Malaysia, and 19% from other markets. If the ringgit weakens further, it’ll only be good news for the company. Kenanga Research noted in its report that every 10 sen increase to buy one US dollar will result in an extra RM1.5 million profit for the company. It is also noteworthy that Oriental Food has a dividend policy of paying out at least 35% of its net profit, which it has been consistently adhering to each financial quarter. In FY15, its dividend payout totalled 13 sen per share, above the 9.5 sen paid in FY14. As at June 30, 2015, the company’s cash and cash equivalents stood at RM35.6 million, while gross borrowings stood at about RM10.99 million. In May, the company declared a bonus issue of 60 million shares on the basis of one bonus share for one Oriental Food share held to reward loyal shareholders, followed by a share split of every one share into two new ones. It currently trades at a price-earnings ratio of 14.38 times. Apollo Food Holdings Bhd (fundamental: 1.9 ; valuation: 2.4), which produces chocolate confectionery products and layer cakes, is another snack food manufacturer with a substantial export market. According to Asia Analytica Sdn Bhd’s report on Sept 4, Apollo Food derives about 40% to 50% of its revenue from exports, which are mainly denominated in US dollars. The company’s net profit for 1QFY16 ended July 31 surged 95.7% to RM11.19 million Kawan Food Bhd Apollo Food Holdings Bhd Vol (’000) 80 from RM5.72 million a year ago, propped up by foreign exchange gains and lower operating cost, even though revenue declined 3.3% to RM49.9 million. “The stronger earnings were anticipated as the company is a beneficiary of the weakening ringgit and lower commodity prices (hence lower raw material cost),” said Asia Analytica’s report. Apollo Food dividend yield also looks attractive. For FY15, it declared a dividend of 25 sen per share, equivalent to a yield of 5.3% based on last Friday’s share price of RM4.72. Asia Analytica opined that Apollo Food would be able to sustain its 25 sen dividend payout until at least FY16, given its cash-rich balance sheet and low capital expenditure requirements; as at July 31, 2015, Apollo Food’s cash balance totalled RM100.03 million; it has no borrowings. Apollo Food’s price-earnings ratio is currently at 12.27 times, based on its closing price of RM4.72 last Friday. Its share price has risen about 7.27% year to date; the counter has hovered largely between RM4.98 and RM4.30 throughout the year. Frozen flatbread maker Kawan Food Bhd is also worth a look. The locally groomed frozen paratha and chapati maker has presence in 35 countries globally. Unlike Oriental Food and Apollo Food, Kawan Food (fundamental: 3; valuation: 1.1) saw a growth in both its revenue and net profit in its latest quarterly financials. In 2QFY15 ended June 30, revenue gained 8.7% to RM44.29 million from RM40.75 mil- RM 5.0 Vol (mil) 3 lion a year ago, while net profit rose 34.6% to RM7.27 million from RM5.4 million, which Kawan Food attributed to higher turnover and a favourable ringgit-to-US dollar exchange rate. Exports make up 62.8% of Kawan Food’s revenue, with North America taking up about half of that, at 30%. The subdued trend in global commodity prices is also favourable to Kawan Food, according to Kenanga Research in an Aug 20 report. “As of 1H15 (first half 2015), prices of wheat and skimmed milk powder had fallen by 26.5% and 44.7% respectively. Note that flour (by-product of wheat) is the largest component of Kawan Food’s raw material costs at 50%, followed by margarine (by-product of milk powder) at 30%,” noted Kenanga Research. The research house forecast Kawan Food’s gross margin to expand to 44.5% for FY15 from 42.6% in FY14. It also expects the flatbread maker’s net profit to grow by 19.2% in FY15 and FY16. Kawan Food is currently trading at 16.79 times, based on last Friday’s share price of RM2.38. Year to date, the counter has risen 70%.

This has caught the market’s attention. The property developer’s share price climbed higher last week to a nine-month high of 59.5 sen last Friday. GOB has signed a conditional sale and purchase agreement (SPA) to sell its da:men retail mall to Pavilion Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) for RM488 million cash. As at June 30, the company’s cash balance was at RM79.7 million, while its total borrowings stood at RM270.83 million. Upon completion of the divestment of the da:men development, GOB’s cash pile will balloon to RM567.7 million. A back-of-the-envelope calculation revealed that GOB will be in a net cash position of RM296.83 million or 65 sen per share, after deducting all its borrowings. The indicative value was 9.7% higher than its current market capitalisation of RM270.53 million. This is compared to its net tangible assets of RM1.14 per share as at June 30, 2015, according to its filing with Bursa Malaysia on Aug 26. Last Friday, GOB’s share price went up 2.5 sen or 4.4% to close at 59.5 sen — the highest level since Dec 3 last year — with some 39.32 million shares changing hands, Global Oriental Bhd Sen 100 Vol (mil) 60 80 40 59.5 Sen 20 60 40 0 Sept 25, 2014 Sept 25, 2015 nouncement at a later date. GOB is formerly known as Equine Capital Bhd. The last time that the company had declared a dividend was in the financial year ended March 31, 2006, when it paid out 2.5 sen per share. It is worth pointing out that GOB has 17 properties (14 in the Klang Valley and three in Penang) with a collective net book value of approximately RM218.8 million as at March 31, 2015. Besides the disposal of the da :men retail mall, GOB in November last year sold two parcels of leasehold land with a collective land size of 15.56 acres (6.29ha) in Seri Kembangan, Selangor, to Summit View Development Sdn Bhd for RM142.35 million. Last month, GOB’s wholly-owned subsidiary Pertanian Taman Equine Sdn Bhd inked a conditional SPA with Kemaris Residences Sdn Bhd for the proposed disposal of a parcel of leasehold land within the mixed making it the fourth most actively traded counter of the day. Over the past month, the stock has gained 15.5 sen or 35% from a low of 44 sen on Sept 2. The large cash pile has sparked speculation on the likelihood of GOH declaring a special cash dividend. But a source familiar with GOB said the company is unlikely to declare the dividend as it needs the Global Oriental Bhd’s financial status cash to expand its property business, FYE MARCH 31 (RM MIL) for instance, to buy land. “The company is still working out the exact ratio for how much Revenue will be utilised for bank borrowings Net profit repayment and working capital,” the Net assets source said.

GOB’s property developments are located mainly in the growth areas of the Klang Valley and Penang. In the Klang Valley, it has ongoing residential developments in Seri Kembangan. The residential developments in Seri Kembangan include gated and guarded residences dubbed “Villa Heights”, a low-density residential condominium development called “Springville” and “Galleria”, an exclusive serviced apartment project. Over in Penang, the company is undertaking a township development dubbed “Crescentia Park” through its subsidiary Penaga Pesona Sdn Bhd. In terms of earnings performance, GOB saw its net profit for the first quarter ended June 30, 2015 ballooning to RM78.8 million or 17.33 sen per share from RM5.48 million or 2.41 sen per 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 (UNTIL 1Q) (JUNE 30, 2015) 149.05 6.37 189.85 107.00 277.54 32.13 221.98 46.95 271.46 30.49 252.47 71.01 352.10 39.04 291.51 221.89 445.12 30.39 439.54 254.09 224.03 78.80 529.05 270.83 20.18 0.84 31.43 0.98 39.97 1.11 61.35 1.28 59.99 0.97 79.66 1.14 B2C firms risk obsolescence without digital platform, says Digital News Asia CEO BY A ZRI L A N N UAR KUALA LUMPUR: In about 15 to 20 years, companies that are primarily in the business-to-consumer (B2C) space will be left behind if they do not start investing in the digital platform now, said Digital News Asia (DNA) founder and chief executive officer, Karamjit Singh (pic). As it is, start-ups are already taking advantage of the digital sphere as they capitalise on the changing consumer attitude due to the advent of the technology and connectivity, said Karamjit in an interview with The Edge Financial Daily last week. This may well become a potential threat to current large, brickand-mortar companies, which is what DNA’s inaugural business conference, entitled “What’s Next: The Business Impact of Disruptive Technology”, tomorrow at Cyber- view Resort and Spa — seeks to address. “One of my speakers who sold his e-commerce company in Thailand says that in the next five years, e-commerce percentage of the retail market will move from 1% to 10%. If traditional B2C companies don’t come in for a market grab, they will be left behind. “By the time they try to catch up, the current market leaders will have built too much of a lead. This is where another speaker says that in 15 to 20 years’ time, any company who has not gone digital will no longer be around,” said Karamjit. The event is particularly suited for executives responsible for corporate strategy and innovation at mid- to large-sized companies, according to DNA. What’s Next aims to help them understand how the combination of technologies and/or changing user behaviour, driven by technology, will impact industries, particularly those with a consumer-facing business such as telecommunication firms, banks, media, insurance, and healthcare. “The new start-ups find that they can serve consumers better via the digital platform. If you look at the Generation Y, they are very familiar with the digital platform. share last year. Revenue also leapt to RM224.03 million, compared with RM92.62 million in the previous corresponding period. The better net profit and revenue were mainly attributable to the completion of the sale of two parcels of leasehold land in Seri Kembangan, coupled with higher revenue recognition and profit contribution from the da:men mixed development, according to GOB’s results announcement. Moving forward, in the announcement, GOB said it expects the domestic property market to remain challenging with concerns about banks’ credit tightening measures and the growing purchasers’ cautious sentiment. “Nevertheless, the group’s projects are progressing satisfactorily and continue to contribute to the earnings of the group for the remainder of the financial year,” it added. Even some who are [aged] 30 and above, the Generation X, are getting used to the digital platform. “This is something that most brick-and-mortar companies or other B2C companies don’t realise. They think they are safe with the ones (customers) above [the age of ] 30 and 40, but the trend is changing. Those above 40 are also moving to digital,” said Karamjit. He said this is primarily due to the rise of smartphone usage. What’s Next’s keynote speaker is AirAsia Bhd founder Tan Sri Tony Fernandes. Other speakers at the event include Mol Global Inc founder and executive chairman Ganesh Kumar, and Iflix co-founder and chief executive officer Mark Britt. The talk will be held tomorrow at Cyberview Resort and Spa. Members of the public can register at digitalnewsasia.com/whatsnext or call +603-7940 0300. More access to finance spurs SMEs’ growth KUALA LUMPUR: The Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers (FMM) has expressed relief over the government’s move to enhance the Working Capital Guarantee, whereby an additional RM2 billion would be given to non-service sectors. “The scheme will help small and medium enterprises (SMEs) gain access to finance and maintain their operations under current economic constraints,” FMM chief executive officer Dr Yeoh Oon Tean said. It was one of the measures outlined by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak recently to protect Malaysia’s “real economy” to restore business confidence and cushion the impact of global economic uncertainty. The additional funding was announced by Najib after he chaired the Special Economic Committee meeting in Putrajaya. — Bernama HOME BUSINESS 9 M ON DAY S E P T E MB E R 28 , 2015 • T HEED G E FINA NCIA L DAILY A run good for the soul RUNNING to heal — that is what The Edge Kuala Lumpur Rat Race 2015 is all about. Be it for health, kinship or the soul, Malaysian corporates are being rallied to put aside their concerns about the economy and to do good for people with very little in their lives. Loosely based on the Carey Wall Street Rat Race in New York, The Edge Kuala Lumpur Rat Race 2015 will take place on Tuesday, Oct 27. Half of the proceeds will be used to fund English and financial literacy programmes managed by The Edge Education Foundation, while the balance will be evenly distributed to selected beneficiaries for educational and training programmes. The 16th edition of the Rat Race last year saw RM1.84 million channelled to 12 beneficiaries. So, it is time for corporate figures to don their running shoes to raise funds for the less fortunate. Vistage Malaysia makes its debut It is a year of firsts for Vistage Malaysia at The Edge Kuala Lumpur Rat Race 2015 — it is making its debut in the race as well as stepping up as a sponsor. Vistage Malaysia supports diverse charitable activities, such as Stop Hunger Now and Five Arts Centre’s youth programmes and community projects. It has also conducted a personal coaching programme for retrenched workers who aspire to be entrepreneurs. The company will send two teams to compete in the mixed category, and its chairman and chief listener Richard Wong and executive director Sherine Cheng will take part in the CEO (chief executive officer) Race. Although this will be their first race, Wong and Cheng do not feel the pressure to win and are looking forward to the event. They want to inspire more CEOs and companies to don their run- ning shoes for charity. “It is also our way to be role models — to influence our CEOs and key staff to support a worthy cause,” they say. “We are walking the talk.” They say their participation in the race reflects the top management’s support for charitable work and promotion of healthy living. “Fit and healthy people are naturally more productive and they make better colleagues.” Running in the race is a good way of involving sponsors and donors on top of doling out cash, they add. Vistage’s runners are preparing for the race by jogging and running around a lake twice a week after work. Trinity strives for work-life balance For Trinity Group Bhd, this year’s race is a step towards attaining work-life balance and achieving non-work-related success by its staff. Taking part in his first Rat Race in the CEO category, Datuk Andy Khoo Poh Chye is looking to reinforce the importance of having “body, mind and spirit balance” for a happy and healthy life. “As I should lead by example, I will take this opportunity to instil that thought in my colleagues. And for me, it is a good start to stay fit!” He believes that a good corporate social responsibility programme should tap into a company’s competency when developing initiatives that benefit society, be focused with clear objectives and be sustainable in the long run. The group participated in a flood relief campaign in the East Coast earlier this year through the Trinity Flood Relief Effort programme. It converted its sales gallery into a temporary donation collection centre and assisted the transport of goods to a nearby airbase for delivery. “Knowing that we are running for a charitable cause is a good motivator in itself, as each step I take along the route will help secure a student’s future through The Edge Education Foundation,” says Khoo. Running together for the first time, Trinity’s five-member team is training hard near their office in Bukit Jalil in preparation for the event. The heat is on for Ireka Ireka Corp Bhd CEO Monica Lai Voon Huey says the heat is on at Rat Race this year as she seeks to repeat her achievement in last year’s CEO Race, where she came in second. She believes that taking part in the CEO Race is a chance to “lead by example”. She adds that the event is a good idea that combines charity and sport. Ireka is no stranger to corporate responsibility programmes, with IREKA CARES entering its fifth year. Each year, the programme selects and adopts a children’s home under one of its five pillars — community, arts, recreation, environment and sports (CARES). The company’s employees then run a series of educational and learning programmes at the home throughout the year. “We also make use of our property, IT and construction skills to improve the living environment of the children, doing minor upgrades and renovations at the home, as well as providing IT support. To date, we have worked with three homes, namely Lighthouse Bangsar, Rumah Hope and Rumah Kanak-Kanak Angels,” Lai says. Ireka is fielding a team of five runners in the mixed category. “This is the perfect way to exercise and raise funds for worthwhile causes. I like the idea of running for a reason,” says team leader Mohd Fakhzan.

This week, theedgeproperty.com looks at the performance of non-landed properties in this area. We have found that projects falling under Cheras South span from the 7th to the 11th Mile of the Cheras-Kajang Expressway and include townships such as Bandar Damai Perdana, Bandar Tun Hussein Onn, and Bandar Mahkota Cheras. • Based on theedgeproperty.com’s analysis of transactions, prices of non-landed properties in Cheras South appreciated steadily from 2012 to 2014, although prices here are still very affordable. The average transacted price per square foot (psf) rose 13.8% y-y to RM241 psf in 3Q2014. In the preceding year, it grew 25.5% y-y. • The growth in average price may be partly attributed to the wave of newly completed projects. Some of the latest additions to the landscape include Livia Residence, Mahkota Residence and Suria Court. • Meanwhile, a rise in average prices can also be observed across almost all existing properties, albeit from a low base. This suggests that the local secondary market is also befitting from the influx of new developments. • In the 12 months to 3Q2014, transaction volume slipped 23.6% y-y from 664 to 507 units. Transaction activity is likely to return with the new developments bringing at least 3,900 units into the market.

Source: theedgeproperty.com Protasco to hand over Phase 1 of RM10b De Centrum City in December London ‘Billionaires Row’ home said to sell for £85m BY N E IL C A L L A N A N BY A ZRI L A N N UAR KUALA LUMPUR: Protasco Bhd will hand over its entire Phase 1 of the De Centrum City development in Kuala Lumpur South, comprising a shopping centre block with 29 retail units, a serviced apartment block with 320 units, a small office/home office block with 192 units and 54 shoplots to purchasers in December. The property developer unveiled the RM10 billion new township in 2007. Spanning 100 acres (40.46ha), the new township would be developed in stages over a 15-year period. The freehold tract of land where the township is being built, is currently the site for De Centrum Sales Gallery and the Infrastructure University Kuala Lumpur (IUKL). “De Centrum City is possibly the first township in Malaysia to be built around an existing academic institution, and there is growth potential and opportunities not only for those involved with academia, but also for families looking to set up new homes, companies looking for a prestigious address outside the city, businessmen and investors,” said Protasco managing director of property and infrastructure Datuk Kenny Chong Ther Nen in a statement last Tuesday. Protasco said Phase 1 of the project entails a shopping centre called Gallerie @ De Centrum, which is scheduled to open by February next year. To date, 70% of the shopping centre has been leased out to tenants, who will operate a fitness centre, convenience stores, pharmacies, bookshops, fast-food restaurants and a supermarket. Under Phase 1, the De Centrum City de- An artist’s impression of Protasco’s master plan for the De Centrum City township. velopment also features two condominium towers (A & B) called De Centrum Unipark, which have been completed, while the remaining two blocks (C & D) will be completed by 2017. When fully completed, De Centrum Unipark will offer a total of 640 units. Protasco said coming up next is a highend residential development called Rimbawan Residences@De Centrum, which will feature 504 high-rise condominium units and 13 exclusive villas. “Given the location of De Centrum City in close proximity to [the] IUKL, University Putra Malaysia and other institutions of higher learning, it is envisioned that a knowledge community will grow and evolve from here — with start-up companies, technology incubators and other amenities to support an entrepreneurial ecosystem,” said Chong. Protasco said most of the existing structures on the land will be demolished to make way for new ones to be built according to the master plan. “The existing university campus will also be upgraded with green features added — from a network of elevated green bridges with public parks and water features to sheltered pedestrian walkways and bicycle paths. A shuttle bus service will be started to link commuters in De Centrum City to the Kajang mass rapid transit station, which is scheduled to be operational by July 2017,” it added. The group said De Centrum City is expected to be a catalyst for growth for the Kuala Lumpur South corridor by providing investment opportunities and creating new jobs. The new township will cater to the existing population of 500,000 located within a 20-minute drive from De Centrum City. On the prevailing slow economy, Chong said: “We own the entire prime land of De Centrum City, which is unencumbered, so there is less pressure on us to achieve unrealistic targets as we can pace our growth to coincide with general economic growth accordingly. We believe a sound long-term development will override any temporary fluctuations in the market,” he added. LONDON: The property company that generates income for Queen Elizabeth II agreed to sell a house in the London street known as “Billionaires Row”, two people with knowledge of the matter said. The home in Kensington Palace Gardens, the United Kingdom’s most expensive street, is being sold by the Crown Estate for almost £85 million (RM567.96 million), said the people, who asked not to be identified. The home has 10 bedrooms, according to real estate website Zoopla. The Crown Estate, which owns the freehold to the west London street, offered to sell a 125-year lease for the home in January, according to its annual report. The street, west of Hyde Park, is one of the city’s few private roads where no passing traffic can enter. The sale comes as the central London luxury-home market is slowing. The average price of a home in the city’s best districts fell 4.4% in August from a year earlier to £1,426 a sq ft. Homes in Kensington declined 0.6%, according to broker Knight Frank LLP. The average Kensington home is valued at £3.4 million, according to broker Foxtons Group plc. “Kensington Palace Gardens remains the ultimate address for ultra-high net worth individuals requiring security and discretion,” said Giles Hannah, senior vice-president at Christie’s International Real Estate. “It’s the most sought after and most valuable street for homes in London.” The Crown Estate oversees real estate surrendered in 1760 by the monarchy in exchange for annual payments. — Bloomberg ST O C KS W I T H M O M E N T U M 11 M ON DAY S E P T E MB E R 28 , 2015 • T HEED G E FINA NCIA L DAILY www.theedgemarkets.com This column is an analysis done by Asia Analytica Sdn Bhd on the fundamentals of stocks with momentum that were picked up using proprietary algorithm by Anticipatory Analytics Sdn Bhd and that first appeared at www.theedgemarkets.com.

For 1H2015 ended June, profits surged to RM4.5 million compared to a loss of RM0.1 million from a year earlier. This was despite a 9% drop in revenues to RM204 million. The improved performance was attributed to the stronger US dollar and shift towards higher margin products. D&O GREEN TECHNOLOGIES BHD Although the company appears to be turning around, investors should note that its 68.7%-owned subsidiary, Dominant Opto Technologies Sdn Bhd, lost a court case on Aug 28, 2015.

The RTO entails Tecnic acquiring all the equity interest held by REH in Rohas-Euco Industries Bhd (REI) for RM200 million, satisfied via the issuance of 317.46 million new Tecnic shares at 63 sen per share. TECNIC GROUP BHD REI is principally involved in the design and fabrication of steel structures for high-tension transmission towers, microwave towers and substation structures. Recall that Tecnic became a Practice Note 16 or cash company after it completed the disposal of its entire business to sister company SKP Resources Bhd for RM200 million in April. Therefore, Tecnic has approximately six months to regularise its status by acquiring a new core business to maintain its listing status.

TEO SENG CAPITAL BHD (ALL FIGURES IN MYR MIL) TEO SENG CAPITAL BHD TEO Seng (Fundamental: 1.5/3, Valuation: 1.9/3) is predominantly involved in layer farming — rearing chickens to produce eggs. With current production of 3 million eggs per day, it is one of the largest egg producer in the country. The company has its own in-house feed mill and also manufactures animal health products. We like Teo Seng as a well-managed company, with higher than industry average profit margin (trailing 12-month net margin of 13.1%) and lower than average gearing of 29.7%. It is also fairly inexpensive, trading at trailing 12-month P/E and EV/EBITDA of 7.96 and 5.48 times, respectively. Whilst demand for eggs is fairly resilient — and should grow steadily — earnings are affected by fluctuating egg prices and costs for feed stock, mainly corn and soybean meal, which are denominated in US dollar. Teo Seng’s share price rallied in 1Q2015, buoyed by higher egg prices and lower feed costs. But its shares then slumped to the curTEO SENG CAPITAL BHD rent RM1.42, down 35.75% from a peak of RM2.21. This follows weak 2Q2015 earnings results where a sharp fall in egg prices — Grade “A” dropped from 37 cents to 29 cents — saw earnings drop 58.44% q-q to RM7.3 million. Positively, egg prices are on the rebound and we expect better performance in 2H2015. This could be the catalyst for a fresh rally. Teo Seng has hedged about one year’s supply of animal feed in 2Q2015; thus, impact from recent weakening of ringgit will be minimal. It also exports about 27.75% of the revenue to Singapore and should benefit from the stronger Singapore dollar. The company is expanding capacity, which should underpin longer-term growth. Dividends, however, may be cut back this year, in view of the higher capex. Teo Seng has a dividend policy to pay out 20-50% of annual net profits. We estimate dividends at roughly 5 sen per share — after taking into account the 1-for-2 bonus issue in January. That will earn shareholders a fairly decent yield of 3.52%.

We on Aug 7 assumed that Westports needs at least a month to give its clients a notice before implementing the tariff hike. Slowdown in China’s economy has contributed to a slower pace in container growth by the Intra-Asia trade line, shrinking from 12.9% in the first half of 2014 (1H14) to 8% in 1H15.

We tweak our forecasts as we think new tariff hikes will kick in from FY16 (we previously assumed in October). This leads to a dilution in FY15 earnings per share by 2%. We continue to like Westports’ business model of long-term sustainable, recurring and yet growing income. Hence, we maintain our “buy” call, but our TP is lowered to RM5.26 based on discounted cash flow estimates from RM5.35 after we changed our assumptions on tariff hikes. — HLIB Research, Sept 25 Telco sector Neutral (previously underweight): Post-paid competition among the big three telcos has eased slightly quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q), as DiGi and Celcom pulled out their RM36 to RM38 offers (3GB) from the market in mid-July. Still, their new post-paid offers are priced lower versus the first quarter of 2015 (1Q15). Among smaller players, U Mobile significantly raised the data quota for its RM28 plan from 1GB to 3GB in late-July, and launched a very aggressive new RM70 Hero plan (7GB, unlimited calls/SMS) early this month. Celcom’s Magic Sim triggered other telcos to launch their own promotions in 3Q15. As a result, free basic Internet has now become a standard feature in the industry, while free high-speed Internet is given upon credit reload. Competition in the international direct dialing (IDD) segment also continued to be intense. Celcom has significantly cut its headline tariffs, while on the ground checks revealed that Maxis continued to push for more traction with attractive free IDD call promotions. Due to intense competition, we expect the industry’s mobile service revenue to remain weak in 3Q15, after falling 0.5% q-o-q (-0.9% year-on-year) in 2Q15. Maxis could gain revenue market share for a third consecutive quarter on further traction in the prepaid segment. DiGi is likely to see further revenue pressure due to intense prepaid competition and margin pressure from higher international traffic costs due to a weak ringgit. We expect Celcom to turn around and report its first positive prepaid net adds since 2Q14, but revenue improvements could lag. Malaysian telco share prices have slid 9.5% on average yearto-date (FBM KLCI: -8.4%). While the sector’s financial year 2016 (FY16) enterprise value/operating free cash flow is still at a 22% premium to the regional average, it is backed by decent FY15 to FY16 yields of 4% to 4.2%. We upgrade our sector call from “underweight” to “neutral”. We downgrade DiGi.Com Bhd from “hold” to “reduce” after its recent share price bounce. We keep our ratings on Axiata Group Bhd (add), Maxis Bhd (hold) and Telekom Malaysia Bhd (hold). Our top Malaysian telco pick is Axiata. For Asean telcos, our top picks are Indosat, XL and AIS. — CIMB Research, Sept 25 Play Warrant Hero with RM100,000 in cash prizes to be WON* The FIRST warrant trading contest in Malaysia has launched, download the app and start playing for FREE.

Such practice is not sustainable in the current media landscape as established media companies are providing multiplatform offerings. Likewise, we understand that Media Prima is focusing on producing content that is able to transcend across various platforms to suit different demographic groups of viewers. For instance, ‘Jejak Rasul’, a popular Islamic documentary show in Malaysia, can be repackaged into a travel documentary to be sold to neighbouring countries. To monetise contents effectively, the group also advocates product-bundling strategies whereby different grades of contents are packaged together. This will allow the monetisation of content that is less popular. In addition, it would be cost and time effective to repackage the content compared to producing an entirely new content. Approximately 70% of Media Prima’s content is sourced locally either through its content creation subsidiary, Primeworks Studios Sdn Bhd, or third-party vendors. Meanwhile, the remaining 30% is sourced through its foreign vendors, whereby the transaction is usually denominated in US dollars. Such practice will also limit the group’s exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies.

Based on the last closing price of RM1.16, the stock currently trades at a forward price-earnings ratio (PER) of approximately 8.6 times. This is below its three-year historical average of approximately 12.6 times. The weakness in share price also translates into a higher dividend yield of approximately 8.6%. There is no change in our earnings estimates at this juncture. Despite management hinting that advertising expenditure (adex) growth will be muted this year, we have already imputed this into our earnings forecasts. We are estimating weaker normalised financial year 2015 (FY15) earnings of RM144.66 million, a decrease of approximately 6.9% year-on-year (y-o-y), which will rebound in FY16 by 4.6% y-o-y. In times of adversity, the group has managed to perform considerably well through various cost-cutting exercises such as production cost savings and mutual separation schemes. This is seen in the improvement in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation margin in its recent quarterly earnings announcement. Moreover, we view that the strong balance sheet will support the group’s ability to consistently pay out dividends. We view that the current level of share price provides a good opportunity for investor to increase the stock’s exposure. All factors considered, we are maintaining our “buy” recommendation on the stock with an unchanged TP. Our TP assumption is based on FY16 earnings per share of 13.4 sen against its three-year historical average PER of 12.6 times. — MIDF, Sept 25 Hai-O’s 1QFY16 revenue up on strong performance in MLM division Hai-O Enterprise Bhd (Sept 25, RM2.29) Maintain underperform with a higher target price (TP) of RM2.22 from RM2 previously: Year-on-year (y-o-y), first quarter financial year 2016 (1QFY16) revenue grew 11.2% to RM55.4 million thanks to a strong performance in the multilevel marketing (MLM) division, which gained 29.4%, as the strategy of focusing on small-ticket items bore fruit. However, wholesale division sales recorded a decline of 21.5% due to the weak consumer sentiment and the implementation of the goods and services tax (GST). Operating profit increased 6.2% to RM8.7 million due to the strong performance in the MLM division. As a result, net profit grew 6.5% to RM6.6 million. Quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q), 1QFY16 revenue slid 21.4% to RM55.4 million largely due to the swing in sales in the wholesale division as customers stocked up in anticipation of the GST. Sales were also weaker in the MLM division due to the Ramadan fasting month. As a result, net profit fell 29.5% to RM6.6 million due to the higher base effect in the previous quarter. Outlook remains challenging with the biggest concern being the wholesale division due to the strong US dollar (USD) against the ringgit. With the USD remaining strong, the group may face difficulty in sustaining profit in this division. The strategy of realigning the sales focus towards small-ticket items has gained traction as they now contribute more than 60% to total sales while the revenue growth momentum is also seen to be picking up. However, we remain cautious as we foresee limited growth in the MLM division in view of the weak local consumer sentiment. Overall, we still maintain our negative stance on Hai-O Enterprise despite the improving performance in the MLM division in view of pedestrian growth forecast for the next two years (4% and 7.3%) and the risk in the wholesale division. Our TP was upgraded after we rolled over our valuation to FY17. The TP is based on unchanged 12.9 times price-earnings ratio, which is below its five-year mean. The risks to our call include the stronger-than-expected ringgit’s recovery against the USD, as well as better-than-expected consumer sentiment. — Kenanga Research, Sept 25 Hai-O Enterprise Bhd FYR APR (RM MIL) Turnover Ebit PBT Net profit (NP) Consensus (NP) EPS (sen) EPS growth (%) NDPS (sen) BV/Share (RM) PER P/BV (x) Net gearing (x) Net div yield (%) 2015A 2016E 2017E 239.9 42.2 43.0 30.1 15.4 (25.3) 15.0 1.30 14.8 1.76 cash 6.5 245.3 40.8 42.3 31.3 32.7 16.0 4.0 12.0 1.34 14.3 1.70 cash 5.3 252.6 44.2 45.1 33.6 38.1 17.2 7.3 13.0 1.39 13.3 1.65 cash 5.7 Source: Kenanga AmProp seen to be significantly undervalued Amcorp Properties Bhd (Sept 25, 88.5 sen) Initiate coverage with a target price (TP) of RM1.53: Amcorp Properties (AmProp) is a niche property developer that will likely see its London and Tokyo property projects driving its robust 64% earnings compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over financial year 2015 (FY15) to FY17. Meanwhile, its recurring income stream both from its investment property, Amcorp Trade Centre, and renewable energy projects in solar and hydro with a combined 16mw, is growing. At a 2016 price-earnings ratio of 4.9 times, we believe AmProp is significantly undervalued and ripe for a rerating given: 1) its improved earnings profile; 2) upside to valuations on greater stock awareness; and 3) dividend upside potential in view of noncore asset disposal. We initiate coverage with a “buy” call, with an upside potential of 88%. Since 2009, AmProp has been investing in the London property market, taking advantage of depressed prices and the weak pound sterling, post the global financial crisis. From a mere investor, AmProp has ventured into property development, together with strategic partners, with more sizeable projects both in London and Tokyo.

The prime minister said he was confident that as Asean established itself as a community by the end of the year, both Malaysia and other Southeast Asian nations would be able to do more to contribute to South-South Cooperation. Malaysia is the chair of Asean for 2015. “Malaysia remains ready to continue to share our development experience, even as we ourselves are on track to reach high-income status by 2020,” he told a high-level roundtable on South-South Cooperation at the United Nations (UN) headquarters here. The session attended by leaders of 20 countries was chaired by Chinese President Xi Jinping while UN secretary-general Ban Ki-Moon was also present. Najib said since 1980, Malaysia has been assisting less developed countries in areas such as economic planning, finance, trade, agriculture, education, industrial technical training and diplomacy. To date, he added Kuala Lumpur has allocated US$200 million (RM880 million) to the Malaysian Technical Cooperation Programme, benefiting 29,000 participants from 141 countries. However, he stressed that SouthSouth countries should stand united with a common voice to become a powerful force at all multilateral fora, providing an in-depth and more accurate diagnosis of the issues faced by developing countries. Citing a famous Chinese saying, “When people work with one mind, they can even move Mount Tai”, Najib said South-South Cooperation could help reinforce the emphasis on building the resilience of the poor and vulnerable, in particular the least developed, landlocked and small island states. “They especially need help in reducing their exposure to climate-related, natural, and economic shocks,” he added. Touching on the UN’s 2030 Sus- tainable Development Goals, Najib said: “What the world would be like then, we would not know for sure. What we do know, however, is that the global south will have continued its rise, and that many of the policy challenges will be of a cross-border, even cross-continental nature”. The high-level roundtable, among others, will provide a platform for South nations in urging developed nations to meet their commitments and to encourage the UN system to provide greater support to South-South Cooperation. Najib is currently on a working visit in New York, joining more than 170 world leaders, at the 70th session of the UN General Assembly. —Bernama Schools closed, flights cancelled due to haze PUTRAJAYA: Starting today, school managements and district education offices (PPD) are given the authority to decide on school closure if visibility drops to less than 500m. Education Minister Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid said previously, schools in areas affected by the haze would only be closed if the Air Pollutant Index (API) reading reached 200, which is very unhealthy. “I have discussed with the Natural Resources and Environment Ministry yesterday (Saturday) and decided that besides the API, visibility can also be taken into account in determining the closure of schools. “This means, even if the API is still between 100 and 120, but the visibility in the area is below 500m, we allow the PPD and headmaster to close the affected school,” he told a press conference here yesterday. All schools in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya, Negeri Sembilan, Sri Aman (Kuching) and Samarahan (Sarawak) have been ordered closed today following a deterioration in the API reading. Mahdzir said the ministry had also decided that announcements on whether schools would be closed A security guard putting up a notice at the gate of Sekolah Kebangsaan Merpati Jepang, Kuching in Sarawak after the Education Ministry directed that all schools in the state be closed today due to the haze.

On parents’ request that schools should be closed for three or four consecutive days, he said the proposal was logical but the ministry must take into account various factors, including the possibility of changes in the API reading. In KUCHING, all flights involving the Kuching to Pontianak and Pontianak to Kuching sectors were cancelled until further notice, said Kuching International Airport (KIA) general manager Mohd Nadzim Hashim. “All flights to and from Pontianak have been cancelled until further notice. There are no passengers stranded from the sector here since early notice was given,” he said. He said four flights that were scheduled to depart and arrive here (KIA) were delayed due to the haze yesterday morning since visibility was reduced to just 800m. He said the delayed flights were Kuching to Kuala Lumpur, Kuching to Sibu, Kuala Lumpur to Kuching and Sibu to Kuching. “The delay involved 333 passengers,” he told Bernama when contacted. In IPOH, six flights — three departures and three arrivals — were delayed due to the haze at the Sultan Azlan Shah Airport here yesterday. Malaysia Airports Sdn Bhd operations officer Tengku Mahmud Tengku Zainal said the flights were delayed to poor visibility at the airport, which was 600m. He said the delay involved departure flights for the Ipoh to Singapore and Ipoh to Johor Baru sectors, while arrival flights were for the Singapore to Ipoh and Johor to Ipoh sectors.

Khairy said he would meet Sarawak BN Youth leader Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof soon to discuss the matter. “We will choose a date near to the election to launch our machinery,” he told reporters after opening the Long Busang Health Clinic here yesterday. He said various programmes and activities had been carried out by the Sarawak BN Youth to get young voters to support BN in the coming election. Khairy had spent the night at Long Busang, which is in the Sarawak interiors, to experience living with the Kenyah Badeng community. It was organised under the BN Youth for the community programme to bring BN Youth members closer to the people living in the interior areas and to understand their needs and difficulties. Khairy said the programme focused on the interior areas in Sarawak, but would be expanded to other states in future. During the dialogue session, Hulu Rejang Member of Parliament (MP) Datuk Wilson Uggak Kumbong urged federal ministers from the peninsula to visit the interior of Sarawak to understand the situation and needs of the people. In making the call, he said the move would enable them to determine the type of development required by the people. “Only by experiencing for themselves, they can understand the problems and needs of the rural people,” he said. Uggak commended the Rembau MP for his willingness to travel to the remote areas, which took three hours by road from Bintulu and another eight hours by speed boat and long boat from the Bakun dam jetty to reach the Orang Ulu settlement of the ethnic Kenyah. Khairy is the first federal minister from the peninsula to visit Long Busang, a remote area in the interior of Sarawak, he said. — Bernama Malaysia’s Air Pollutant Index data not up to par, says MP for Kelana Jaya PETALING JAYA: Putrajaya should start publishing Air Pollutant Index (API) data which measures finer particulate matter, said a federal lawmaker, noting that discrepancies between the smoggy conditions and the current API readings were due to Malaysia still measuring larger particles at 10 microns or PM10. Kelana Jaya Member of Parliament (MP) Wong Chen said Malaysia should use measurements that can capture particulates of PM2.5 as done in most countries, including Singapore and Indonesia. He said the PM2.5 data was even available in Department of Environment (DoE) stations here but the failure to use it resulted in overall and substantially lower measurements in Malaysia, creating a more positive and “illusionary picture” of the nation’s air quality. Wong, a PKR leader, said the government had failed to take into account the greater health dangers posed by the smaller air particles of PM2.5, which may lodge in the lungs and enter the bloodstream. “I therefore urge the Barisan Nasional government to start publishing PM2.5 data in accordance with regular standards of many countries. “These PM2.5 data are currently available in DoE stations in Putra- jaya, Banting, Cheras, Langkawi and Kuching, and must be released on an hourly basis starting from now,” he said in a statement yesterday. Wong also urged the Pakatan Harapan state governments of Penang and Selangor to immediately set up PM2.5 measurement facilities as an alternative to the DoE and produce hourly reports. “I am not advocating a public health scare. But the basic principle here is that the public must first be fully informed on the air quality, so that they can then choose to mitigate their own risks when pursuing activities outdoors. “The act of whitewashing the haze will not with any certainty, improve economic or tourist numbers but it will, with certainty, exact heavy healthcare and human costs on the uninformed public,” he added. — The Malaysian Insider 17 M O N DAY S E P T E MB E R 28 , 2015 • T HEED G E FINA NCIA L DAILY HOME MY EXHIBITION + AWARDS CONCOURSE AREA GROUND FLOOR BANGSAR VILLAGE 2 KUALA LUMPUR ORGANISED BY IN ASSOCIATION WITH AWARDS PRESENTATION 3 OCTOBER 2015 (SATURDAY) EXHIBITION 3 OCTOBER - 18 OCTOBER 2015 PRIZE SPONSORS EVENT PARTNER VENUE SPONSOR 18 H O M E M ON DAY SEP TEM B ER 28, 2 0 1 5 • TH EEDGE F I N AN C I AL DAI LY Seven to be charged with Morais’ murder today Suspects, including a military doctor, face death penalty if convicted KUALA LUMPUR: Seven men, including a military doctor, will be charged today with the murder of Anthony Kevin Morais, the deputy public prosecutor (DPP) whose body was found in an oil drum filled with cement on Malaysia Day in Subang Jaya, Selangor. Five of them will be charged with murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code, while two others, including the military doctor, will be charged with abetting the murder which falls under Section 109 of the Penal Code, sources told The Malaysian Insider. All seven suspects face the death penalty if convicted. Police earlier said Morais was the DPP in the case in which the military doctor, a colonel in his 50s attached to the pathology lab in the Tuanku Mizan Military Hospital, was charged with unlawful trade in December 2013. In September last year, the doctor, who was on a RM100,000 bail, claimed trial to two bribery charges involving RM700,000 for allegedly recommending three companies to supply medicine and disposable medical tools to the hospital. The seven will be charged in the Magistrate’s Court at the Jalan Duta court complex today, even as Morais’remains are still left unclaimed at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital mortuary. Morais’ brothers — Charles, David and Datuk Richard — are believed to be unhappy with the Colleagues in the legal fraternity have described Morais as a brilliant prosecutor, approachable, humble, a mentor, teacher and patriot.

A memorial mass was held at the St Joseph’s Church in Sentul on Saturday, after the family held a three-day wake at the Nirvana Memorial centre in Kuala Lumpur. The funeral mass will be held at the Church of the Divine Mercy in Shah Alam on Oct 3. Morais went missing on Sept 4 after he was abducted by several men following a fender bender along Jalan Dutamas during the morning rush hour traffic. He was grabbed by the suspects after he came out of his car to inspect the damage. Richard lodged a missing person’s report the following day at the Jinjang police station after it was discovered his brother had not reported for work and calls to his two mobile phones went unanswered. Police then found a burnt-out Proton Perdana, with its chasis and engine numbers erased, in a plantation in Hutan Melintang, Perak. Morais was last seen driving a government-issued Proton Perdana. A day later, Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali issued a statement that Morais was not part of the government task force which had earlier investigated government-owned 1Malaysia Development Bhd over its debt controversies. Apandi was addressing speculations on social media about the possible links between Morais’ disappearance and the high-profile probe into the state investment vehicle. According to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), Morais served as a DPP in the MACC’s legal and prosecution division for 10 years until he returned to the Attorney-General’s Chambers in July last year. Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar was the first to disclose several days later that police suspected foul play in Morais’ disappearance, adding that the case was reclassified as abduction. Twelve days after his abduction, police were led to a swamp in Taman Subang Mewah in USJ 1, Subang Jaya, where they found Morais’ body in a cement-filled steel drum. It was also reported that police made several arrests in the Klang Valley, Penang and Kedah in their investigations. Hundreds of people attended his wake in the last three days, and colleagues in the legal fraternity have described Morais as a brilliant prosecutor, approachable, humble, a mentor, teacher and patriot. — The Malaysian Insider Chinese envoy to be summoned today KUALA LUMPUR: The Foreign Ministry has confirmed that it will summon Chinese ambassador to Malaysia, Huang Huikang, to seek a clarification on the statement he made during a visit to Petaling Street, here last Friday, Bernama reported. The meeting at Wisma Putra in Putrajaya will be held today, it said in a statement. “During the visit, he was interviewed by the media and subsequent media statements resulting from that interview have attracted attention and caused concern to the Malaysian public. “The ministry hopes this meeting will help clear the matter,” the statement said. In a reaction to the government’s move, the Federation of Chinese Associations Malaysia (Hua Zong) said Putrajaya should withdraw its summons, The Malaysian Insider reported. Hua Zong president Tan Sri Pheng Yin Huah said Huang’s visit to the tourist stretch popularly known as Chinatown was to show- case that the area was safe, since it was one of the places visited by Chinese tourists. “The government should not call the ambassador for an explanation. “We urge the prime minister to be concerned over this and order the Foreign Affairs Ministry to cancel its move to call the ambassador for an explanation,” he said in a statement. Hua Zong is the umbrella body of Chinese guilds and associations in Malaysia. Former MCA vice-president Gan Ping Sieu said Huang’s visit, though well-meaning, was counter-productive, unnecessary and could be manipulated to the detriment of the country’s frayed racial harmony. In a statement sighted by The Malaysian Insider, the Chinese embassy said its ambassador’s visit to Petaling Street was an act of goodwill and the envoy had no intention of interfering in Malaysia’s domestic affairs. The embassy said Huang’s visit was in conjunction with the mid-autumn festival which was celebrated yesterday, and he gave out mooncakes to the traders and visitors at the tourist and shopping hotspot, popularly known as Chinatown. The embassy said he also made similar visits during major festivities in Malaysia, including the Chinese New Year, Hari Raya and Deepavali. The statement stated that Petaling Street was one of the major attractions visited by Chinese nationals during their holidays in Malaysia and Huang’s visit was to showcase that the popular stretch was safe and attractive to visit. “Dr Huang was asked some questions from the media but he only expressed hopes that Malaysia stay united, prosperous and harmonious,” the statement said. In its reaction to the incident, Umno Youth has slammed the Chinese ambassador for interfering in Malaysia’s affairs. In a statement on Facebook yesterday, Umno Youth’s international affairs bureau chairman Datuk Mohamed Hazali Abu Hassan said the wing took exception to Huang’s statement that China would not remain idle should racial tensions erupt here. The Chinese envoy had reportedly said Beijing was opposed to terrorism, extremism and any form of discrimination based on race. Mohamed Hazali said Huang’s visit was sensitive given the controversy surrounding Petaling Street at this time, adding that the statements the envoy made there raised eyebrows and could have a negative impact on a potentially volatile issue. “We duly note his statements but according to the norms and protocols of international relations, no foreign power has the right to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. “Malaysia has allowed space for freedom of speech and peaceful rallies and would not seek to silence any party from voicing their opinions, even ones from those who are not in agreement with the current government,” he added. — Bernama/The Malaysian Insider ‘Red shirt leader smeared party image’ BY MD IZ WA N KUALA LUMPUR: Not all Umno members agree with their party comrade Datuk Jamal Yunos and his “red shirt” rally. Some grassroots members feel the Sungai Besar Umno division chief has been opportunistic with his provocations against Petaling Street vendors, and this has smeared Umno’s image. A few of them slammed Jamal’s actions, calling them selfish and aimed at gaining political mileage. “Jamal is using sensational issues for his political mileage,” said Mohamad Faizal Abdul Raub of Umno’s Keliang, Hulu Selangor branch. Mohamad Faizal said this was not the first time the Sungai Besar Umno division chief “tried to be a hero” as he had criticised Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and urged him to step down from his position as Umno deputy president. “In the Tan Sri Muhyiddin case, he acted as a hero. And now for the ‘red shirt’ rally issue as well,” Mohamad Faizal said. — The Malaysian Insider Overseas students at the National Taiwan Normal University Linkou campus. 100,000 overseas students targeted TAIPEI: Overseas students at the National Taiwan Normal University Linkou campus celebrated at their recent graduation. Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou said that efforts to attract students from overseas to study in the republic have proved successful. He estimated that the number of overseas students in Taiwan will top 100,000 next year, its Central News Agency reported. While visiting the campus — also known as the division of preparatory programme for overseas students, Ma said attracting students from overseas has been one of the most successful of the government’s educational policies over the past six decades. Ma said that when he first came to office in 2008, the number of students from overseas was less than 30,000. He noted that Taiwan signed an agreement with Malaysia four years ago to mutually recognise diplomas bestowed by schools in each country. — CNA COMMENT 19 M ON DAY S E P T E MB E R 28 , 2015 • T HEED G E FINA NCIA L DAILY Yellen’s flip-flop isn’t guidance Efforts to direct expectations have become discredited BY MA RK GI L B ERT I n the middle of last year, when quizzing Bank of England Governor Mark Carney about when interest rates might rise, Labour Member of Parliament Pat McFadden accused him of “behaving a bit like an unreliable boyfriend; one day hot, one day cold. And the people on the other side of the message are left not really knowing where they stand.” The jarring combination of the recent Federal Reserve decision to keep rates unchanged and last Thursday’s speech on what happens next makes Janet Yellen his equivalent as an unreliable girlfriend. Yellen told the Fed’s post-meeting press conference that “in light of the heightened uncertainties abroad and a slightly softer expected path for inflation, the committee judged it appropriate to wait for more evidence.” propriate to raise the target range In a speech last Thursday, she for the federal funds rate sometime said “most of my colleagues and I later this year.” anticipate that it will likely be apWhile Yellen and her peers have come a long way since the days when setting policy was a deliberate exercise in opacity, they are guilty of flip-flopping so often that their efforts to direct expectations have become discredited. To be fair, the current economic backdrop to monetary policymaking is even more opaque than usual with China in a funk, emerging markets looking vulnerable, the outlook for faster inflation non-existent at the same time as the US labour market appears to be in rude health. Nevertheless, the forward guidance policy adopted in recent years by many central banks is in tatters, and is probably doing more harm than good in telling companies and consumers when borrowing costs are likely to rise and at how fast. Yellen’s flip-flop probably means a wave of Wall Street revisions to their Fed forecasts this week. Citigroup Inc economist William Lee, for example, last week shifted his lift-off call to spring 2016; in June, he had placed his bet on September, after previously anticipating a December move. “It all seems a very long way from the simple certainties of the era of forward guidance based on one domestic variable, the US unemployment rate,” Lucy O’Carroll, the chief economist at Aberdeen Asset Management, wrote this week even before Yellen’s speech further muddied the waters. “No wonder markets — and economists — seem a little confused.” Economists polled by Bloomberg are predicting a continuous path of interest rate increases, with one quarter-point move per quarter between now and the end of next year. The deadly combination of the capricious central bank communications and an economic outlook that looks like it could turn on a dime and slide into recession, though, makes trying to predict the future even harder than usual. So do not be surprised if, in the coming quarters, the chart above bears no relation with the reality of what happens to the US Fed funds rate. — Bloomberg View Mark Gilbert is a Bloomberg View columnist.

Growth in the sector has lost steam due to a broader slowdown in the economy, which is expanding at six-year lows — giving authorities another reason to launch their drive. Islamic mega bank Central to the overhaul is a plan to set up a National Islamic Finance Committee this year, to oversee the sector by bringing together representatives from different government agencies and act as a contact point for potential foreign investors. Currently, responsibility for the sector is spread around different bodies, such as the OJK, the central bank and the finance ministry, according to the OJK’s Nasirwan. It is modelled after similar bodies in other countries, such as the International Islamic Financial Centre in Malaysia, where the sector is already far more developed as the government started supporting it some years ago. In addition to the OJK road map, the government has announced plans to merge the Islamic banking subsidiaries of four state-owned banks to create an Islamic mega bank, which should be able to provide better services than the current Islamic lenders. While observers have broadly welcomed the plans, they concede that many difficulties remain. Khalid Howladar, Moody’s global head of Islamic finance, said it would be “quite a challenge” to grow the sector to a substantial level. “The market is growing faster than conventional but from a very low base,” he said, adding Islamic banks in Indonesia did not offer “substantive competition” to their non-syariah peers. But for Nina and a growing army of devout Indonesians with newfound spending power, Islamic banks remain the only choice. “I really don’t care that I’m not earning anything or getting lower returns on my investments,” she said. “I can live in peace.” — AFP 20 FO CU S M ON DAY SEP TEM B ER 28, 2 0 1 5 • TH EEDGE F I N AN C I AL DAI LY MO 01 Harley’s Street 750, the closest to a cafe racer Big in Asia, it’s Harley-Davidson’s bid for urban riders and women BY HA NN A H EL L IOTT H ere’s a twist: Harley-Davidson’s most dynamic markets today are outside of the nation that conceived, birthed and reared its dominance.

Although to my mind it feels slightly heavier, at 489 pounds (221.81kg) it’s actually 69 pounds lighter than the Indian Scout, with foot pedals that place your knees up nearer to the gas tank than bigger cruisers. (If you are comparing it on the Harley line, the Street 750 is 73 pounds lighter than the better-looking Iron 883, which falls at 562 pounds.) I liked that novel feel of the foot pegs because it made for better heads-up positioning and easier egress as I jumped on and off around town during the course of the day. But don’t expect the standard Harley stretchand-slump posture on the slim Street 750. This is not a highway king. Or queen. You might be interested to know that for the past seven years, Harley has sold more motorcycles to women than any other brand. Last year, it owned 64% of the entire women’s motorcycle market, which has continued to increase incremen- tally for years, according to data from the Motorcycle Industry Council. Harley sees that space as another sales opportunity, and the Street 750 is the ticket to accessing growth there, too. So, it has mid-mount controls that sit slightly forward of the narrow chassis, and a seat that is only 25.4 inches (64.52cm) off the ground. That makes it more accessible to shorter riders, for example, women. (Some would say that seat is too soft for long-term rides; I would say it’s just fine for the purpose of this bike, which is to excel on short- and mid-length day trips.) So far, so good; seven out of every 10 Americans who buy a Street are buying a Harley for the first time, according to IHS Polk. Classic Harley style I do not care for the Street 750’s overall styling, though it is arguably the most relevant of the brand’s repertoire to younger buyers. Compared to bikes like the Yamaha Star Bolt, Royal Enfield Continental and Triumph Continental, the Street 750’s high handlebars, swooped fat seat and weird headlamp cover don’t look dynamic enough to capture the imagination of design-focused riders. In the same vein, like it or not — I know a lot of you won’t, but, hey, sometimes the truth hurts — the brand’s reputation for oversized, loud motorcycles and oversized, obnoxious riders still works against it for attracting anyone who wants to feel Steve McQueen-cool on a motorcycle. Those cafe racer acolytes will default to Ducati’s Scrambler or even a possible upcoming BMW Scrambler when they want something new to ride. That said, particular components of the Street 750 are great, like the single 3.5-inch dial at the centre of the handlebars. It pulls its weight working single-handedly as an 03. The Street series is the only in the Harley family that is made in North America and in India. 04. The 2016 Street 750 is the larger of the two models in the Street series. 05. The Street 750 has a single gauge at the centre of the handlebars that manages speed, fuel and maintenance. 06. The Street 750 is Harley’s most popular motorcycle in Asia. 07. The Street 750 has teardrop-shaped front and rear indicators that match the shape of its gas tank. 07 odometer, tripmeter, and LED indicator for lights, oil pressure, turn signals, engine diagnostics and fuel, among other things. Happily, you will find enough black on the standard Street 750 to satisfy even the most devoted emo — goth teen — or Manhattanite adult. There are blacked-out fork gators with skinny black seven-spoke cast aluminium wheels, 17 inches in the front and 15 inches in the rear. The single exhaust, blacked-out fins, mini-bullet turn signals and black speed screen make the bike look closer to a cafe racer than any other modern Harley. And a blackened engine is always lovely to look at: Carefully tucked and contained under that teardrop tank, it is the heart, guts and muscle of the bike wrapped in one. Oh, and I know you have been waiting — the sound. The Street 750 growls low and guttural, like a grizzly reassuring her cubs. The tone may not quite warm the heart (via the ears) of riders inclined to Italian engineering or British aesthetics. But it will beckon like a siren for those who, whether here or abroad, want to join the Harley family. If you are so inclined, this one’s for you. — Bloomberg 22 F E AT U R E M ON DAY SEP TEM B ER 28, 2 0 1 5 • TH EEDGE F I N AN C I AL DAI LY Behavioural economics useful Even though people in business have understood it for decades and maybe even centuries BY JU ST I N FOX I n Germany, about 12% of people consent to be organ donors; in Austria it’s 99.9%. This huge gap is the product not of “different cultures, different norms, or extraordinarily effective educational campaigns in Austria”, legal scholar Cass Sunstein wrote in a recent paper, but of a simple legal nudge. “In Austria, consent is presumed, subject to opt out. In Germany, consent is not presumed, and people have to opt in.” This is an example of the remarkable power of defaults, one of the big discoveries of the behavioural economics movement. But when Sunstein, one of my fellow columnists at Bloomberg View and a leading proponent of the “nudge” approach to public policy, presented the paper at Harvard in November 2012, economist Larry Summers questioned whether it was a discovery at all. Summers told a story about a college acquaintance who as a cruel prank signed up another classmate for 60 different subscriptions of the book-of-the-month-club ilk. The way these clubs worked was that once you signed up, you got a book in the mail every month and were charged for it unless you (a) sent the book back within a certain period of time or (b) went through the hassle of extricating yourself from the club altogether. Customers had to opt out in order to not keep buying books, so they bought more books than they otherwise would have. Book marketers, Summers said, had figured out the power of defaults long before economists had. On Sept 18, I went to a Brookings Institution conference on the public policy lessons of behavioural economics. There were gee-whiz research findings and proposals from the likes of Stanford’s Raj Chetty, Harvard’s David Laibson and Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Antoinette Schoar, plus an account of how the lessons of behavioural economics were beginning to be put to Budweiser can swallow SABMiller without busting a gut BY ROB ERT COL E Molson Coors, will go. That could fetch around US$12 billion based on the valuations of similar traded companies. Elsewhere, there is overlap in China and potential conflicts of interest in the two sides’ Pepsi and Coca-Cola bottling operations. There might be issues in Turkey too. Say the merged company ultimately has to make US$20 billion of disposals. It would be left with net debt around twice that carried by AB InBev at present — close to US$95 billion. Is that sustainable? Well, the group would lose some of SAB’s current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) as a result of the disposals. But it should be left with US$5 billion of additional Ebitda, taking 2014’s total and deducting the contribution from the United States, and, conservatively, the same again to cover lost profit in Asia and elsewhere. The annual total would be around US$24 billion. Paying down debt will require synergies. If AB InBev manages to elevate SAB’s margins to its own run rate, annual Ebitda would rise by at least US$1 billion. But even without that, a deal along these lines would leave the new mega-brewer with a net debt to Ebitda ratio approaching four times. That is a hurdle AB InBev looks capable of jumping. — Reuters ANHEUSERBUSCH InBev (AB InBev) should be able to swallow a deal with SABMiller (SAB) without busting a gut. Even at a huge-sounding US$110 billion (RM484 billion), the Belgo-American brewer could take on its Anglo-South African rival by paying partly with equity and making disposals that ease the burden further. Start with that theoretical headline value. AB InBev has so far only made an informal approach to SAB, but assume it must pay a 35% premium to the target’s share price on Sept 15, the day before the deal was mooted, to get a hearing, add SAB’s existing net debt of around US$10 billion, the total enterprise value of around US$110 billion would be roughly half of Budweiser brewer AB InBev’s own. The cash requirement will be cut if existing SAB shareholders choose to take stock. Altria and the Colombian Santo Domingo family together speak for around 40% of SAB shares. Others might prefer equity too, to avoid tax liabilities for example. If half of the equity portion of the deal is paid for in stock, that leaves US$50 billion to be raised in debt. The burden will fall further because AB InBev will be obliged to sell some assets to satisfy competition authorities.

But that same Summers critique — haven’t business people known these things forever? — came up a few times too. Maya Shankar, the young neuroscientist who leads the Social and Behavioral Sciences Team, described how the rewording of a Department of Defense email to service personnel by one of her team members had markedly increased re-enrolment rates (from 23.5% to 28.7% in the first week after the emails were sent in January) for the government’s Roth Thrift Savings Plan. Somebody in the audience then mused that anybody with experience in advertising and marketing could have improved on the Department of Defense’s email; did it really take a behavioural scientist? Shankar responded that academic behavioural research “gives us the most well-rounded recommendations”. Her colleague William Congdon, an economist, added that ad agencies surely possessed valuable knowledge about human behaviour, but “it is unfortunately largely private knowledge”. Just bringing insights about human behaviour into government, even if they’re not new insights from the perspective of private industry, is progress. This is especially important because government policymakers have long listened to (if not necessarily followed) the advice of economists, and until recently the consensus among economists was that people generally made decisions rationally. Behavioural economics has changed that. “The rational economic model was dominant in policy circles as recently as 1995,” said Laibson, who is chairman of the economics department at Harvard. “It’s not anymore.” But it’s still an interesting question: Have behavioural economists really discovered anything new, or have they simply replaced some wrong-headed notions of postWorld War II economics with insights that people in business have understood for decades and maybe even centuries? Laibson said he had tried to learn from advertisers and marketers, but was mostly been disappointed. “I’ve actually been struck by how much they depend on intuitions,” he said in response to a question from Brookings research analyst Peter Olson. “There are catalogue companies that do lots of A/B testing, but it’s sort of lowbrow A/B testing. It’s not conceptual like loss aversion.” So this is what behavioural economists do. They come up with theories for why people act in certain strange ways, they test those theories with experiments or against economic data, then publish the results so that the rest of us can learn from them. That actually seems pretty useful, even if the people at the book-of-themonth Club have known about this stuff all along. — Bloomberg Justin Fox is a columnist writing about business for Bloomberg. Refugee crisis crucial to Europe recovery — Siemens BY M ARTI N S O O NG & NYS HK A C HANDRAN FIXING Europe’s migrant crisis is crucial to the region’s exit from a multi-year economic downturn, according to one of the continent’s largest companies. “I think currently the single biggest issue Europe has is not so much about inflow of investment ... What we have today is a massive inflow of refugees,” said Joe Kaeser, chief executive officer (CEO) of German engineering giant Siemens. “If Europe masters the refugee challenge, they will also master their economic destiny going forward.” Speaking to CNBC at the Singapore Summit, an annual conference of over 400 business leaders, Kaeser’s timely remarks came ahead of an emergency meeting last week where European leaders were to debate how to respond to what was being called the continent’s worst refugee crisis since World War II. Kaeser’s comments also stood in contrast to other business leaders such as UBS chairman Axel Weber who told CNBC at the Summit that increased inward investment and structural reforms were essential factors for a European economic recovery. “Governments have only sluggishly and reluctantly entered into reform agendas and I think that’s the major reason why European dynamics are subdued and that’s why price pressures don’t build, because the economy just doesn’t enter into an escape velocity mode,” Weber said. While Europe has long been a popular destination for migrants from conflict-ridden regions in the Middle East and Africa, the sheer Migrants waiting for buses near the Austrian-Hungarian border in Nickelsdorf, Austria, last Monday.

The economic powerhouse is widely expected to receive the highest number of asylum seekers in the European Union. For now, it remains to be seen how governments will resolve the issue, according to Kaeser, “We’ll see how it goes, I think the jury is still out on this one.” Overall, the CEO believes Europe is still in the process of recovering from the sovereign debt crisis. “We’re reasonably satisfied with what we see in Europe,” he said, adding that a cheaper euro helped export-oriented sectors such as manufacturing.

The 62-year-old former Porsche chief Matthias Mueller was tapped last Friday to replace Martin Winterkorn, who resigned over stunning revelations by US environmental authorities that the German carmaker had fitted some of its diesel cars with software capable of cheating environmental tests. “Europe’s most important automobile group faces a new beginning” while “the scandal is growing bigger and bigger,” German FAZ daily wrote on Saturday. The scale of Volkswagen’s deception became clear when the company admitted that 11 million of its diesel cars are equipped with so-called defeat devices that covertly turn off pollution controls when the car is being driven normally — and back on when tests are being conducted. The scam could lead to fines worth more than US$18 billion (RM79.2 billion), while the German giant has already seen billions of Pound’s outlook seen brightening BY ANOOJA DEBNATH LONDON: The pound may arrest its slide against the euro because the Bank of England (BoE) will increase interest rates much sooner than markets are predicting, according to BNP Paribas SA. Sterling has weakened 1% against Europe’s single currency this month, extending the 3.8% drop in August that was its biggest slump in 2½ years. That’s set to change now Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen has confirmed the United States is still on course to raise interest rates this year, said BNP Paribas analysts including global head of foreign-exchange strategy Steven Saywell. Yellen’s comments last Thursday reinvigorated speculation the BoE will follow suit with tighter policy and that the European Central Bank (ECB) may expand quantitative easing. “Market pricing for the Bank of England looks excessively dovish,” the analysts wrote in a note to clients last Friday. “We expect the ECB to respond to a stronger euro with more easing, and see scope for euro-sterling to move lower.” — Bloomberg euros wiped off its stock last week. Mueller has pledged an “unsparing investigation and maximum transparency” in his bid to restore confidence in the Volkswagen Group. For now however, the crisis shows no sign of abating with the US environmental regulator refusing to authorise the sale of Volkswa- gen’s new diesel models. Volkswagen introduced its new 2016 Passat — which includes a diesel version — in New York last Monday just as the scandal over cheating on pollution controls broke. Switzerland also temporarily suspended the sale of new Volkswagen diesel-engine models last Fri- day, potentially affecting some 180,000 vehicles on Swiss roads made by Volkswagen’s Audi, Seat, Skoda and Volkswagen brands between 2009 and 2014, the Federal Roads Office said. France and Britain have announced new checks and the European Union (EU) has urged its 28 member states to investigate whether vehicles in their countries complied with pollution rules. India and Mexico have also opened fraud probes into Volkswagen cars sold there. On Saturday, EU sources told AFP that regulators began preparing tightened testing well before the current crisis broke, after researchers found a difference between emission levels recorded in the laboratory and those found in real driving conditions. Those stiffer tests designed to thwart defeat devices come into force in January. Outrage has continued to grow as the potential amplitude of the scandal broadened. “A top-to-bottom cleaning is needed. Those responsible for this scandal must be punished,” Ulrich Hocker, head of German shareholder union DSW, told press agency DPA. — AFP ‘EU tightening auto emission tests to prevent cheating’ BRUSSELS: The European Union (EU) moved to change its diesel car emission tests to prevent the sort of rigging used by German auto giant Volkswagen after noticing discrepancies in the results, EU sources said on Saturday. The sources, who asked not be identified, said research over several years showed a difference between emission levels recorded in the laboratory and those found in real-world driving conditions. “The lessons we took from that very quickly is that we needed to commence new, more reliable road driv- ing emissions testing, which should also prevent any kind of a defeat device being installed,” one source said of the moves to tighten tests that come into force in early 2016. In Europe, diesel cars are mainstream and have been marketed as more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly than traditional petrol-engined cars. News that EU officials had noticed emission discrepancies between on-road and testing situations was first reported last Saturday by the Financial Times, which said little was done to address the issue after it was discovered in 2013. European authorities rejected that claim. Asked if the Commission knew that defeat devices existed, one of the EU sources said: “Yes, we banned them. Did we know defeat devices were being used in the EU? No.” Another source added the reinforced testing that has been in preparation since then has been developed to thwart such cheat technology. “Future legislation [will be] more efficient to prevent their use,” the source said. — AFP Dalian Wanda opens US$2.5 billion China resort HONG KONG: Dalian Wanda Group Co, controlled by Asia’s richest man Wang Jianlin, said it opened a US$2.5 billion (RM11 billion) resort in south-east China’s Yunnan province on Saturday with the target of earning 100 billion yuan (RM69.05 billion) in revenue in the next five years. The Xishuangbanna resort, span- ning 5.3sq km, includes a theme park, theatre, retail street, Wanda shopping mall and a hospital, in addition to high-end hotel chains with 1,050 rooms, the company said in an emailed statement on Saturday. Wanda aims to attract 200 million tourist visits in the next five years, according to the statement. The resort, the company’s third tourism project in China, “will be a landmark to showcase the upgraded tourism industry in Yunnan,” chairman Wang said in the statement. The company also signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Yunnan province on Saturday to invest 95 billion yuan to build 19 Wanda shopping plazas and more tourism projects, Wang said. — Bloomberg IN BRIEF Volkswagen unit Porsche said to name Oliver Blume as new chief FRANKFURT: Porsche’s production chief Oliver Blume is set to succeed Matthias Mueller as the new head of the Volkswagen AG unit that makes the 911 sports car, according to a person familiar with the matter. The appointment of Blume is to be sealed at a Porsche board meeting in the near future, said the person, who declined to be named because the talks are private. The change at Porsche is necessary after Mueller was named Volkswagen’s new chief executive officer last Friday, in a bid to help the Wolfsburg-based carmaker respond to its worst crisis after revelations of cheating on emissions tests. — Bloomberg Dubai stocks climb as markets reopen after two-day holiday DUBAI: Dubai stocks advanced amid low trading volumes as markets in the United Arab Emirates reopened after a twoday holiday.

Modi, 65, is the first Indian leader to visit the US West Coast in more than 30 years. His trip follows a similar visit by China’s president, Xi Jinping, who met several tech leaders in Seattle last week. The Indian premier continued his Silicon Valley tour yesterday with visits to Facebook and Google Inc headquarters before an event at the San Jose Convention Center that 18,000 people were expected to attend. Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg announced Modi’s visit on his Facebook page earlier this month and invited users to post questions. More than 37,000 comments were made in reply, with questions ranging from those about Internet expansion in India, unemployment rates and calls for Modi to address his human rights record. Modi has been criticised for not doing enough to stop 2002 religious riots in Gujarat that killed about 1,000 people, mostly Muslims, when he was chief minister of the state. He has vehemently denied any wrongdoing. Some groups have protested against his arrival. The Sikhs for Justice group had called on its members to picket Facebook headquarters before the town hall. Modi is eager to bring bigger technology investments and jobs back to India to help its growing start-up scene. — Reuters therapy.

Investors in US$158.2 million (RM696.08 million) of Goodrich Petroleum Corp’s debt agreed to take 47 cents on the dollar in exchange for stock warrants for some note holders and a lien on Goodrich’s oil acreage, according to a company statement on Saturday. That puts them second in line if the Houston-based company liquidates its assets in bankruptcy and pushes the remaining holders of US$116.8 million in original bonds to the back of the pack. “In the industry it’s called ‘getting primed,’” said Spencer Cutter, a credit analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence. “It’s every man for himself. They’re trying to get in and get exchanged, and if you can’t you’re getting left out in the cold.” Wildcatters attracted billions of dollars during the boom after years of near-zero interest rates sent investors hunting for returns in riskier corners of the market. US high-yield debt has more than doubled since 2004 to US$1.3 trillion while the amount issued to junk-rated energy companies has grown fourfold to US$208 billion, according to Barclays plc. Most of the companies spent money faster than they made it even when oil was US$100 a barrel and are struggling to stay afloat with prices at US$45. Goodrich didn’t name the bondholders who participated in the swap. The largest holder was Franklin Resources Inc, which owned about 24% of the bonds, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Franklin has invested in the debt of other distressed drillers, including Halcon Resources Corp, SandRidge Energy Inc and Linn Energy LLC. This was Goodrich’s second exchange this month. Three weeks ago, the company swapped US$55 million on convertible notes for bonds worth half as much. To sweeten the deal, it lowered the share price at which investors can turn their notes into stock to US$2. Investors who didn’t participate in Goodrich’s earlier exchange took another hit with Saturday’s swap because it put holders of the new bonds ahead of them in liquidation. — Bloomberg American support for China’s reserve-currency bid BY ANDREW M AY E DA WASHINGTON: The Obama administration took a step toward backing China’s bid to have the yuan recognised as a global reserve currency, as the US softened its insistence that the Chinese implement financial reforms to win support. The International Monetary Fund is reviewing whether the yuan should be included in its Special Drawing Rights, a basket of reserve currencies used by the lender as a unit of account. After US President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping met last Friday in Washington, the two sides issued a statement saying the US supports the inclusion of the yuan “provided the currency meets the IMF’s existing criteria in its SDR review,” a point Xi highlighted in his press conference with Obama. The shift in the US position follows the administration’s failed attempt to prevent allies from joining the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank earlier this year, a strategy that was faulted by former policymakers including ex-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. In June, a joint statement by the two countries said the US “supports China making the reforms that would lead to the inclusion” of the yuan in the basket. Last Friday’s statement mentions US support for “China’s commitment to implement further financial and capital market reforms.” The new language clarified to the Chinese that the IMF’s assessment of whether the yuan meets the fund’s SDR criteria will be the determining factor for American support, said an administration official who asked not to be identified. Winning the IMF’s endorsement would validate efforts by Xi to push through policies aimed at making the world’s second-biggest economy more market-oriented, boosting China’s prestige as it prepares to host Group of 20 gatherings next year. — Bloomberg IN BRIEF Developer rejected S$26m offer for South Beach unit SINGAPORE: The developer of the South Beach Residences condo in the inner city turned down an offer of S$26 million for one of its penthouses last year because it wasn’t the right time to launch the project, The Straits Times reported.

The cell phone footage of last Wednesday’s incident in Wilmington, Delaware, showed a police officer repeatedly shouting “Show me your hands!” at 28-year-old Jeremy McDole, sitting in a wheelchair on a street behind a car in broad daylight. A single gunshot was fired, after which the officer continued to yell “Show me your hands!” adding “Drop the gun!” Several other officers were then seen rushing to the scene, yell- ‘Chris Brown to be refused visa to tour Australia’ SYDNEY: US R & B singer Chris Brown is set to be blocked from touring Australia, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said yesterday, as the government sets up its efforts to tackle domestic violence. Brown, who was convicted of assaulting his then-partner pop star Rihanna in 2009, was issued with a “notice of intention to consider refusal”, just a day before tickets to his One Hell of a Nite tour were due to go on sale. “People to whom these notices are issued have 28 days to present material as to why they should be given a visa to enter Australia,” Dutton said in a statement. “Decisions on whether a visa will or will not be issued are made after that time frame and consideration of the material presented to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection.” The decision to ban the Grammy award-winning performer was mooted by recently appointed Minister of Women Michaelia Cash last Friday as new Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull unveiled a A$100 million (RM309.2 million) package to address violence in families. Cash, the former assistant immigration minister, also said she previously revoked the visa of a “very, very, very wealthy” boxing star, understood to be Floyd Mayweather, who has multiple convictions for assaulting women. Brown is due to perform in the Australian cities of Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, from Dec 9 to 16. He previously toured Australia in 2011 and 2012.— AFP ing “Hands up, hands up, put your hands up!” Gunshots were heard ringing out several seconds later, causing the victim to slump to the side and fall out of the wheelchair. It was not clear from the video whether the man, who did not raise his hands as ordered, actually had a gun in his possession. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The Delaware Department of Justice announced last Friday that it was investigating the shooting to “determine whether the police officers acted in compliance with Delaware law”. News reports quoted Wilming- ton police chief Bobby Cummings as saying officers responded to a call about a man with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. At a news conference last week, Cummings said McDole had not complied with officers’ demands to put his hands up, and that he also refused to place his weapon on the ground, local news reports said. McDole was killed when he reached for his weapon, Cummings said, according to the news reports. But his mother, Phyllis McDole, disputed that, saying he was neither armed nor dangerous. “The video’s showing that he didn’t pull a weapon. He had his hands on his laps when they opened fire on him,” she said. Delaware governor Jack Markell called the incident “deeply troubling” in remarks quoted by local media. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a prominent civil rights organisation known by its acronym NAACP, has demanded that a “special prosecutor” be appointed to carry out an independent probe into what happened. Cases of alleged police brutality — especially by white officers against minorities — have grabbed headlines all over the US in recent months, with some sparking riots. — AFP Facebook founder calls for universal Internet access BY ELLEN WU LFHO RS T NEW YORK: Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and a host of celebrities kicked off a campaign on Saturday to make Internet access universal, saying this was critical to fulfilling the United Nations’ (UN) newly adopted agenda to combat global ills. Calling for efforts to ensure Internet access for everyone globally by 2020, Zuckerberg said Internet connections are a dynamic tool for sharing knowledge, creating opportunities, lifting communities out of poverty and promoting peace. “A ‘like’ or a post won’t stop a tank or a bullet; but when people are connected, we have a chance to build a common global community with a shared understanding,” Zuckerberg said at a private luncheon with business leaders at the UN. “That’s a powerful force.” The 193 UN member nations last Friday formally adopted a sweeping set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs, that aim to end poverty and combat inequality and climate change over the next 15 years and call for shared peace and prosperity. The objectives, described as “a to-do list for people and planet” by UN secretary-general Ban Kimoon, are intended as a road map to be implemented by governments and the private sectors. — Reuters Mexico govt pressured for answers one year on BY LIZBETH DI AZ MEXICO CITY: Tens of thousands marched in Mexico City Saturday to demand answers on last year’s disappearances of 43 students, piling new pressure on President Enrique Pena Nieto to clear up a case that has battered his image. A year since 43 trainee teachers went missing in the south-western city of Iguala after clashes with local police, protesters held up banners ridiculing Pena Nieto’s response to the crisis and accusing him of trying to draw a line under it. Simmering anger over the disappearances, which exposed deep flaws in Mexico’s justice system, has dashed any hopes the president harboured of turning the spotlight away from violence and lawlessness that have plagued the country for years. His government said the 43 young men were abducted by corrupt municipal police, then handed over to be massacred by a local drug gang that believed the students had links to a rival outfit in People holding a banner during a demonstration to mark the first anniversary of the disappearance of the students from Mexico’s Ayotzinapa College Raul Isidro Burgos, in Guatemala City, on Saturday.

But an international team of experts reviewing the case this month questioned the government’s account of how the gang members incinerated, ground up, then dumped the students’ remains in a river, arguing its investi- gation was sloppy and full of holes. “The people have gone back to tell the president, ‘we don’t believe him, we’re not idiots’,” said Moises Acosta, 30, one of the thousands of peaceful demonstrators. “Mexico needs to get to work on this case. It’s a lie we’re not going to swallow.” — Reuters IN BRIEF ‘Pope has hip problem, gets physical therapy’ PHILADELPHIA: Pope Francis, who had been limping more and more as his US trip went on, has a hip ailment and gets physical therapy on a regular basis, the Vatican spokesman said on Saturday.

No injuries or arrests were initially reported, after Palestinian youths, chanting “God is great”, threw rocks at police in riot gear, who responded with what a spokeswoman described as “appropriate riot dispersal means”. She declined to elaborate, but said calm had been restored. Israel Radio said police had fired rubber bullets. Palestinians have said they fear that increasing visits by Jewish groups to the holy compound, revered by Jews as the site of Biblical temples, are eroding Muslim religious control there. Israel has pledged to maintain Muslim prayer rights at al-Aqsa, but, citing security concerns, has frequently banned young Muslim men from entering the area, which it captured when it seized East Jerusalem and the West Bank in a 1967 war. There have been similar days of unrest at al-Aqsa over the past several weeks during a period coinciding with the onset of major Jewish and Muslim holidays. Yesterday’s incident occurred on the eve of the Jewish festival of Sukkoth and the end of the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha. An Israeli ban on Jewish visits to the compound, imposed several days ago in a bid to lower tensions, was still in effect. The White House has said it was deeply concerned about the violence at the site and has called on all sides to “exercise restraint and refrain from provocative actions and rhetoric.” While violence in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem has not approached the levels of past Palestinian uprisings, there has been a surge of Palestinian stone-throwing. — Reuters Iran leader demands that Saudi Arabia apologise Muslims and the victims’ families,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was quoted as saying. Shi’ite Muslim Iran, which is locked in a series of proxy wars in Arab countries around the Sunni Muslim kingdom, says that at least 144 Iranians are among the dead. Over 300 other Iranians remain unaccounted for, including former ambassador to Lebanon Ghazanfar Roknabadi, Fars news agency reported. “The Islamic World has a lot of questions. The death of more than 1,000 people is not a small issue. Muslim countries should focus on this,” Khamenei said. Other Iranians officials have also alleged the total death toll is more than 1,000. The disaster happened when two large groups of pilgrims collided at a crossroads in Mina, a few kilometres east of Mekah , on their way to per- forming the “stoning of the devil” ritual at Jamarat. Iran has summoned the Saudi chargé d’affaires three times to ask Riyadh for more cooperation over the incident.

Zhou Benshun, who is not related to Yongkang, had been the top official in the northern province of Hebei, which surrounds the capital Beijing and is China’s most important steel producer. The ruling Communist Par- ty’s anti-graft watchdog accused him in July of “serious breaches of discipline and the law”, a euphemism for corruption. Benshun has now been booted out of parliament, the official Xinhua news agency said late on Saturday, meaning he has lost the immunity from prosecution he had enjoyed as a member. The brief report provided no other information. It has not been possible to reach him for comment and it was not clear if he has a lawyer. — Reuters NEW YORK: A Macau billionaire now jailed in New York failed to comply last year with a request from US prosecutors that he answer questions as part of an overseas bribery investigation, according to court papers and a person familiar with the probe. Ng Lap Seng, 68, is being held in a Manhattan federal jail after his arrest last Saturday on charges that he brought US$4.5 million (RM19.8 million) into the United States and lied about its purpose to authorities. As part of a complaint detailing the allegations against Ng, an FBI agent said Ng left the US in July 2014 without responding to a grand jury subpoena in an “unrelated investigation.” That investigation, based out of Nevada, focused on allegations of foreign bribes being paid, according to a person familiar with the matter who declined to be named because it wasn’t public. Natalie Collins, a spokesman for US Attorney Daniel Bogden in Las Vegas, declined to comment. It’s unclear who the government was targeting or whether the 2014 investigation is continuing.

The suit was filed by the former chief executive officer of the company’s Macau unit. In testimony at a May hearing in Las Vegas, Adelson denied knowing Ng and said he hadn’t authorised Ng to deliver a message from Adelson to government officials in China. “I know of nobody in our company that dealt or was dealing with this Ng Lap Seng,” Adelson said. Adelson also denied that Ng was connected to an alleged US$300 million-bribe request to his Sands China Ltd casino operation in the former Portuguese colony. The payment, according to Adelson’s testimony, was to facilitate the company getting long-delayed approval to sell condos at its Four Seasons property and to settle claims by a Taiwanese businessman. — Bloomberg DAMASCUS: Moscow pressed its military build-up at a new airbase in Syria on Saturday, as Washington admitted rebels it trained surrendered ammunition and equipment to al-Qaeda in a fresh US policy setback. A decades-long backer of the Damascus regime, Moscow has steadfastly supported President Bashar al-Assad throughout four and a half years of war that has killed more than 240,000 people. Its recent deployment of troops and warplanes to Syria, combined with new arms deliveries to Assad’s forces, appears to have prompted a significant shift in international efforts to end the conflict. — AFP Russia frees Estonian officer in Cold War-style bridge spy swap MOSCOW: Russia on Saturday freed an Estonian officer jailed for spying last month, exchanging him for a Russian spy in a Cold War-style bridge swap just days before President Vladimir Putin’s visit to the United Nations.

Typhoon Dujuan, packing maximum winds of up to 209kph, was 560km south-east of Hualien County at 2.30pm (0630 GMT), and laid around 350km from the Japanese island of Ishigaki. “It’s at the upper limit of a moderate storm, and we do not rule out that it gets stronger,” a spokesman for Taiwan’s weather bureau told AFP. Ferry operators increased trips to move people from Green Island and Orchid Island, popular with tourists, and services were suspended later yesterday. A total of nearly 3,000 people were being evacuated from the two islands, the local tourism bureau said. The storm threatened long-weekend plans for many as Taiwan celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival, when families typically gather and moon-gaze. Typhoon Dujuan is set to hit Ishigaki at around midday today, and make landfall in Taiwan later in the evening. The storm is on course to hit mainland China from tomorrow after moving through Taiwan. Japan’s meteorological agency has warned it could trigger waves 13m high when it strikes the country.

Merkel’s “strong commitment to the refugees has obviously not been met with much backing,” the Der Spiegel weekly newspaper said about the poll published on Saturday on its pages. Germany is expecting up to a million refugees and migrants to enter its borders this year, many encouraged by Merkel’s welcoming stance. Some 500,000 people have come to Europe so far this year, the Inter- national Organization for Migration said, many of them taking perilous journeys on inflatable dinghies to Greece from Turkey, and then up towards western Europe through the Balkans and Hungary. European Union member Croatia became a key transit country when Hungary sealed its border with Serbia earlier this month in a bid to keep the migrants out. In the past 10 days alone, 65,000 refugees and migrants had arrived in the Balkan country, the interior ministry said on Saturday. Most were given temporary shelter in a recently built refugee reception centre in the village of Opatovac near the Serbian border. They were then taken on buses and trains to three border crossings with Hungary. “The key is that everything goes smoothly on Hungary’s side. [Hungary] is still receiving [the migrants] and transporting” them towards the Austrian border, Interior Minister Ranko Ostojic told reporters. — AFP Japanese climber attempting Mount Everest turns back KATHMANDU: A Japanese climber who was attempting the first summit of Mount Everest since a deadly quake-triggered avalanche destroyed part of the base camp in April said yesterday he had turned back. Thirty-three-year-old Nobokazu Kuriki, who lost nine fingers to frostbite during a 2012 attempt to climb Everest, was the only mountaineer pursuing the summit this year after an avalanche set off by a massive quake killed 18 people at the base camp. The disaster saw hundreds of climbers abandon their bids to ascend the 8,848m peak, marking a second spring season with virtually no one reaching the summit. The deaths of 16 Nepali guides in an avalanche in 2014 sparked a shutdown that year. It was Kuriki’s fifth attempt to climb the world’s highest mountain. “I decided to descend,” he posted on his official Facebook page early yesterday. “I tried hard taking all my energy, but it took too much time to move in deep deep snow. I realised if I kept going, I wouldn’t be able to come back alive, so I decided to descend.

Xi’s announcement, made in his first address to the UN, follows long-standing criticism from the United States and other developed countries that China has not taken responsibilities in line with its aspirations for a greater global role. The speech is the latest high-profile move for Xi on a trip that has included a White House state visit and saw him chair a UN forum on women’s rights yesterday.

The risks are higher than usual, thanks to regular aftershocks increasing the chance of avalanches, while mountaineering experts said climbing in the autumn is more dangerous than spring due to high winds and lower temperatures. — AFP Canada’s Quebec to change place names with N-word MONTREAL : Nearly a dozen names of places in Quebec must be changed because they contain words like “nigger” or “Negro”, a commission in the French-speaking Canadian province said on Saturday. “Even if the words ‘nigger’ or ‘negre’ are of ancient usage, they can undermine the dignity of the black community,” Quebec’s commission on place names said. “Indeed, the former has a strong- IN BRIEF ly offensive connotation, while the latter has acquired a pejorative charge over time.” In all, 11 names of lakes, rivers, rapids and hamlets in Quebec must be changed as a result of the directive. The province is the only one where the word “negre” — which means “Negro” in French — appears in place names. The commission wants the new names to respect “as much as possible the historic legacy of the plac- es” and “recall the presence of the black community, which has enriched Quebec.” The decision follows a debate launched in August about the appropriateness of the name “Nigger Rapids” given in 1970 to rapids in the town of Bouchette, about 300km north-west of Montreal. Quebec Justice Minister Stephanie Vallee also expressed concern about “names that could have a hurtful connotation.” — AFP OUAGADOUGOU: Burkina Faso authorities on Saturday froze the assets of General Gilbert Diendere, the leader of last week’s failed coup in the impoverished western African country.

On a sunny afternoon at Suzuka, in marked contrast to the dark and tragic 2014 race that he also won, the double world champion seized the lead from pole-sitter Rosberg at the start and never looked back. The win was the Briton’s eighth of the season, with Rosberg anchoring the eighth one-two finish for dominant Mercedes as the champions returned to form after a mysterious dip in Singapore last weekend. Rosberg took the chequered flag 18.9 seconds behind Hamilton with Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel, the winner in Singapore, finishing third in an exact repeat of last year’s top three in Suzuka. Hamilton now has 277 points to Rosberg’s 229 with Vettel drop- ping back on 218 but refusing to give up his championship hopes until mathematically ruled out. Mercedes, who have now won 11 of 14 races, moved a step closer to retaining their constructors’ title with 506 points to Ferrari’s 337. “For me to come here to a race where I used to love watching Ayrton drive, to match his wins ... I can’t really describe it. It doesn’t feel real at the moment,” said a delighted Hamilton after saluting the fans from the podium. If last year’s post-race ceremo- nies were muted in the aftermath of the late Jules Bianchi’s horrific and ultimately fatal accident, only a brief microphone failure prevented Hamilton from expressing his joy on the podium this time. “I am so happy right now,” he said, before Vettel poured champagne over his rival’s head. “The team did a fantastic job this weekend (last weekend), it’s great to be back up here as a team with a one-two. “The car was beautiful to drive today (yesterday).” — Reuters Khairy: FAM must distribute revenue fairly Blatter, Platini being probed — media KUALA LUMPUR: Revenue earned from M-League broadcast rights must be distributed fairly to states and clubs by the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM), said Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin.

Switzerland’s Schweiz am Sonntag weekly said it had information indicating that the two most powerful men in football were in the sights of the ethics committee and could soon be suspended. Committee spokesman Andreas Bantel told the paper he could not comment on individual cases, but hinted at committee activity. “If there is an initial suspicion, the investigatory chamber initiates a formal procedure,” he said, insisting the rules apply to everyone in football “regardless of position or name”. British media also said the Fifa ethics committee had opened an inquiry into 79-year-old Blatter and Platini, his 60-year-old former ally. The massive corruption scandal that has engulfed world football since May made its way to the top of football’s governing body last Friday when Swiss authorities said Blatter was under criminal investigation.

LEISURE SCENE BY M AE CHAN Soviet-era novel adapted for Malaysian stage IT is the year 1942, and World War II is raging. In the now-defunct state of Karelia, Senior Sergeant Vaskov is stationed with a group of young female anti-aircraft gunners in a railway station far from the front line. Being the only man in the village, he had no choice but to accommodate the active, playful personalities of the gunners. One day, two German paratroopers seem to appear in the nearby forest, but when Vaskov and the women attempt to stop them, they find out that there are 16 paratroopers instead. Despite being outgunned and outnumbered, the women stage a remarkable fight to the end. This is the setting of The Dawns Here Are Quiet, a 1972 Soviet-era war movie based on Boris Vasilyev’s novel of the same name. The novel is the inspiration for Malaysian director Deric Gan’s version of The Dawns Here Are Quiet, which is staged in collaboration with The Actors Studio Seni Teater Rakyat and Muka Space. Gan is the first Malaysian to obtain a PhD in Theatre and Chinese Traditional Opera from China’s prestigious Central Academy of Drama in Beijing, and has won multiple awards for his classical adaptations. Timed in conjunction with the 70th anniversary of the anti-fascism world war victory, Gan says he wanted to bring the theme to Malaysia. “The play can help us understand history and also to create awareness on female suffering and those from the war,” he points out. His stage adaptation of this epic book stars Evan Siau, Grace Looi, Ellie Yeo, Ruby Yap, Paige Chan and Paz Lim, with Ruby Chong and Douglas Wong as guest performers.

LEISURE A TRIP TO THE Zen TODAY TOP OF THE WORLD BY MA E C H A N Everest Director: Baltasar Kormákur Cast: Jason Clarke, Josh Brolin, John Hawkes, Michael Kelly, Sam Worthington, Keira Knightley, Jake Gyllenhaal, Emily Watson I f there was ever a movie that is worth watching in IMAX 3D, Everest would be it. This exceptionally well-captured film pays homage to those who dared, centering on the tragic but incredible events of the historical 1996 climb that then recorded the highest number of deaths in one day. Focusing on New Zealand mountaineer Rob Hall and his renowned company Adventure Consultants, the movie pieces together the events surrounding his and his team of climbers’ ascent and subsequent descent from the world’s tallest mountain peak, as a deadly storm wreaks havoc. Everest sets itself apart from films of its genre in several ways, most notably in its approach. Films of this kind are never an easy watch, but Icelandic director Baltasar Kormakur (2 Guns, Contraband) crafted a film that is not so much disaster-driven but rather a re-enactment, drama, tribute and adventure all rolled into one. The result is an engaging and rather heartfelt experience, commendably avoiding the temptation of over-sensationalising, which actually makes the re-imagining overall more gripping. This proves a well-thought out movie, considering that one based on true-events is notoriously difficult to get right — what more a story as fragmented as the 1996 tragedy, known for its conflicting accounts and for a long time after, engulfed in controversy. The idea of the movie first took root when producer Tim Bevan read journalist Jon Krakauer’s account of the May 1996 events in his bestselling book Into Thin Air, which was also made into a tele-movie. Krakauer (played by Michael Kelly in the film), was part of the group that climbed Everest with Adventure Consultants, though he was not consulted on the making of the movie, and has remained silent on it since its release. But Everest is not just based on Krakauer’s version of the story of what happened on May 10, 1996. Instead, it paints a broader story of the different individuals and groups, as well as incorporating their perspectives. Among accounts drawn from includes that of fellow survivor Beck Weathers (Josh Brolin), the Texan pathologist who penned Left For Dead: My Journey Home from Everest about his miraculous revival and subse- quent dramatic rescue via helicopter, as well as the transcript of the final satellite phone conversation between Hall (Jason Clarke) and his wife, Jan Arnold (Keira Knightley). Also portrayed in the film is Scott Fischer (Jake Gyllenhaal), who ran a rival company to Hall’s, though both were pioneers in the commercialisation of climbing on Everest. Kormakur’s direction successfully utilises the wonders of technological advancement to bring the audience on a breath-taking journey up the mountain, a view most of us will not see in our lifetime. With the help of Guy Cotter (Sam Worthington), one of Hall’s best friends and who currently leads Adventure Consultants, the mountain’s elements and psyche of the climbers are also realistically captured. There is an underlying sense of respect and openness in Everest, as the story is allowed to unfold without hurry, and there is no message being shoved down our consciousness. On the flip side, the profound question Krakauer asks the climbers come to mind: Why do they do it? After 121 minutes, there isn’t really an answer. For some, it would be what falls short for this film. Nevertheless, Everest leaves us refreshingly in awe of the world’s tallest mountain and those who tried to conquer it. 4.98 Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your

YORK: Republican leaders in the US Congress last Thursday began advancing bills needed to avoid federal agency shutdowns this Thursday while navigating demands from conservative members to punish healthcare group Planned Parenthood over an abortion controversy. The White House said it would veto legislation for continued funding of the government if a bill Congress is considering eliminates federal money for Planned Parenthood on Thursday. The shock resignation of US House Speaker John Boehner last Friday reduces the chances of a government shutdown this week, potentially removing one source of investor anxiety as Wall Street gears up for a week heavy with economic data and commentary by US Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers. Boehner said last Friday he will step down from the speakership and leave the House at the end of October. This was seen as a sign that Boehner would advance a bill to fund the government without any complicating factors that would result in a White House veto. “This significantly reduces the probability of a government shutdown this week,” Goldman Sachs economists said in a note to clients last Friday. While Boehner’s resignation makes a government shutdown due to a lack of funding on Oct 1 less likely, other fiscal challenges remain. A long-term federal budget deal and a debt ceiling increase must still be passed by Congress. Disputes over these issues between the two parties and among Republicans will not be resolved by Boehner’s departure. “The next relevant question for financial markets will be how this affects the debt limit and other pending issues. There is a clear possibility that the vote this week, which was initially expected to deal just with the extension of spending authority, could instead also address other issues like an extension of the Export-Import Bank and possibly, even an extension of the debt limit,” Goldman Sachs’ note said. Removing one area of uncertainty could help calm a US stockmarket in the midst of a correction in the past month as investors grapple with weakening earnings, Index points 18580 6590 +113.35 (+0.70%)

Mar 1, 2010 Sept 25, 2015 Nikkei 225 Index points 6,109.01 5370 9500 Mar 1, 2010 TOKYO: Asian shares slumped last Friday, while the US dollar firmed after US Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Janet Yellen suggested the central bank is still on track to raise interest rates later this year. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan gave up early gains and was down about 0.2%. It was on track for a weekly loss of over 4% after markets were roiled by a survey showing China’s factory activity fell to its weakest since 2009. But financial spreadbetters expected European shares to open higher, with Britain’s FTSE 100 5,405.94 +147.52 (+2.47%) seen up as much as 1.2%, Germany’s DAX as much as 1.5% and France’s CAC 40 1.2%, though major indexes could still end the week with losses. Volkswagen shares will be in focus again in the wake of the company’s US emissions test rigging scandal. The expected opening gains in Europe are mostly due to short sellers covering positions ahead of recent lows, said Jonathan Sudaria, dealer at Capital Spreads. “There’s nothing particularly bullish out overnight, in fact Asian markets have recommenced their sell-off and Janet Yellen has soured the mood by practically confirming that a rate hike will be coming before year end,” Sudaria said in a note. US stock futures were up about 0.4%, also suggesting calmer trading later in the global session. Japan’s Nikkei ended a volatile session up 1.8%, but still gave up more than 1% in a holiday-shortened two-day trading week. Data before the open showed Japan’s core consumer prices marked the first annual drop since the central bank deployed its massive stimulus programme more than two years ago. — Reuters Global market — Asian shares slump, US dollar gains as Yellen revives rate talk 4825 5980 16,314.67 10,403.79 Index points 7200 16310 Chicago President Charles Evans and San Francisco President John Williams. Investors will also eye reports on US housing and manufacturing, and the week culminates with the September Labor Department payrolls and unemployment report. Forecasts call for job growth of 203,000 versus the prior 173,000, with the unemployment rate expected to hold steady at 5.1%. Shanghai Composite FTSE 100 Dow Jones 14040 China’s economic woes and uncertainty surrounding US monetary policy. Recent skittishness among investors could increase the possibility of a negative reaction in markets if a government shutdown is not averted. While the S&P 500 stock index actually rose about 3% during the last government shutdown in 2013, the gains occurred during a year when the index rose nearly 30%. Stocks are already in the midst of a volatile stretch. Since August 20, more than half of the trading sessions have seen moves of at least 1% in either direction on the benchmark S&P 500 index. “As you transition towards the later stages of negotiations, if they can’t get to a conclusion or a deal done, then absolutely the markets will take that as a third arrow in the quiver on market volatility and potential downside,” said David Lyon, global investment specialist at JP Morgan Private Bank in San Francisco. This week’s calendar could provide other catalysts for volatility.

Chair Janet Yellen suggested the central Asian shares slumped last Friday, while bank is still on track to raise interest rates the US dollar firmed after US Federal Reserve later this year. — Agencies Commodities CPO vs Soyoil Open Interest 4200 200000 3450 1950 2,342 Jan 6, 2008 US dollar gains after Yellen comments 1.5 Oct 1, 2000 Sept 25, 2015 Klibor MONTH The US dollar hit its highest in over five weeks against a basket of major currencies last Friday, a day after US Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Janet Yellen said she expected the central bank to hike rates in 2015, and after US growth data appeared to support such a move. In a speech last Thursday, a week after the Fed delayed a long-anticipated rate hike, Yellen said she and other US central bank policymakers do not expect recent global economic and financial market developments to significantly affect policy. The comments surprised analysts since the Fed kept interest rates unchanged partly in a bow to worries about the global economy. “The Yellen remarks last Friday were indeed a fairly elaborate attempt to explain why rates will go up before the end of the year,” said analysts. — Reuters SETTLEMENT PRICE OCT5 NOV5 DEC5 MAR6 JUN6 SEP6 DEC6 MAR7 JUN7 SEP7 DEC7 MAR8 JUN8 SEP8 DEC8 MAR9 JUN9 SEP9 DEC9 MAR0 JUN0 SEP0 TOTAL (+102) Crude Oil Gold CPO RM/ton Soyoil US$/Ibs US$/bbl US$/troy oz 6400 2,724 0.7300 155.0 (RM0.2818/ton) CHANGE 96.22 96.22 96.18 96.15 96.12 96.10 96.07 96.07 96.02 95.98 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 95.93 — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — VOLUME OPEN INTEREST — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — 0 — — 500 120 — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — 620 1980 45.70 (+0.79) 5100 0.5475 122.5 105000 3800 0.3650 90.0 1340 57500 2500 0.1825 57.5 1020 0.0000 25.0 700 152500 2700 1200 Sept 25, 2015 CPO prices react to various factors including soyoil prices, weather conditions and stockpiles.
