Latest Financial news:

FYI, recently EPF started to buy in MAS. From 28 March 2013 until now, they have bought up 1,620,200 shares, assumed at the lowest  price = approx. RM1,166,807.

As mentioned before, if the rights issue is 2 for everything existing 3 shares @ RM0.60, then the cost per share for Khazanah should be approx. RM1.20.

Now waiting for MAS to announce the Rights Issue Option as well as Price for the Rights.

To me ~ MAS is worth to consider. I'm hoping it will reach 1.20 if the rights issue price is as above.

Good luck with your investment!!! ^_*

Again as mentioned in my previous post, One main point is MAS have stop paying out dividends since 2008. If you are not risk taker, you should consider put it in the bank for FD and get around 3% interest per annum.
