really, the voting is only a formality. if all the directors think its good for their pockets, then it's done since they control about 85% of company.

actually, BT seems to be a company more like an asset trader, meaning they buy businesses more for investments. So when an interested party wants to buy a piece of their businesses for a rich premium, they cash in the profits. A good time to let go? Offer is at 3 times book value.

Is the selling of its PPL a done deal ?? Is PPL too good to let go for predicted long profitability?? There are three possibilities!!

1. BT rejects the offer (most likely not)
2. Accept the offer.
3. Offer from another company/companies (Cosco, Sembmarine, for example)

PARIS

The world’s leading airline industry group slammed European governments for using scientific theory — not fact — in their decisions to close large swathes of European airspace, saying

there was “no risk assessment, no consultation, no coordination, and no leadership”.

“It’s embarrassing, and a European mess,” said Mr Giovanni Bisignani, director-general and CEO of the International Air Transport Association (Iata). “It took five days to organise a conference call with the ministers of transport and we are losing US$200 million per day ($270 million) (and) 750,000 passengers are stranded all over. Does it make sense?”

Speaking to reporters in Paris, Mr Bisignani said it would take between three and six days for services to return to normal once governments lift the flight bans.

European transport ministers were to hold a video conference to work out how to get around the chaos sparked by Iceland’s Eyjafjallajokull volcano, as forecasters predicted the ash cloud could soon reach remote parts of Canada.

Amid pressure to ease airspace restrictions, Spain, which currently holds the rotating presidency of the European Union, said any decision on reopening air traffic in Europe will have safety as its main consideration.

“We must be prudent and act rigorously.People need to understand that we are working to ensure their safety even if this causes numerous problems and heavy losses,” said Spanish Transport Minister Jose Blanco.

Air France-KLM has said that it alone was losing €35 million ($64 million) per day, and British Airways said the group was losing £15-20 million ($31-41 million) a day.

In response, the EU Commission said it was prepared to authorise exceptional financial aid to airlines, similar to “the framework we adopted after 9/11”, which would allow governments to compensate companies for losses due to the volcanic ash cloud.

All the major airports in Western Europe remained closed yesterday but the authorities in Poland, Sweden, Norway, Romania, Croatia and the Czech Republic announced the resumption of flights.

Last night, Germany’s aviation authority granted Lufthansa permission to fly 50 planes back to the country with about 15,000 passengers aboard.

S w i t z e r l a n d and Denmark allowed aircraft
— Airlines voiced growing anger yesterday at the massive airspace shutdown which has left millions of passengers stranded, stepping up pressure on European governments to lift no-fly restrictions triggered by Iceland’s volcanic eruption.

Will MBS be ready for its first Mice event?

Ne o Chai Chin chaichin@mediacorp.com.sg

SINGAPORE — It was not meant to be the first major event held at the Marina Bay Sands (MBS). When the Inter-Pacific Bar Association’s (IPBA) 20th Annual Conference takes place from May 2 to 5, Singapore’s second integrated resort was to have been open for a few months already, with all systems fully tested and broken in. But due to issues such as shortage of manpower and raw materials, MBS pushed its opening back several times and announced in February that it would open only on April 27 — less than a week before the IPBA conference begins. So how ready is MBS? While the 850 registered attendees and distinguished speakers, including Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew and former United States Vice-President Al Gore will not get to enjoy the SkyPark, ArtScience Museum and Theatres, the resort has assured the IPBA organising committee that the completed facilities will be “fantastic”, said committee chairman Yap Wai Ming. MBS will open 963 of its 2,560 hotel rooms, its casino, celebrity chef restaurants, Expo and Convention Centre and part of its shopping mall on April 27. The SkyPark and the remaining hotel rooms will open June 23; other facilities will open ....

We are far enough into this crisis to express our dissatisfaction on how governments have managed it — with no risk assessment, no consultation, no coordination, and no leadership.

CHINA CURBING 3RD HOME PURCHASES

SHANGHAI
Shares of developers and banks tumbled.
Banks should also suspend lending to buyers who cannot provide tax returns or proof of social security contributions, the State Council said on Saturday in statement.
The latest measures come on top of orders to banks this year to set aside more deposits as reserves and raise mortgage rates, and steps to re-impose a sales tax on homes.
“These are the most draconian measures on the property market in history,” Mr Jun Ma, Deutsche Bank’s Greater China chief economist, said in a note to clients yesterday. Chinese press reports point to “panic selling” by investors who own more than one home in Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen, he said.
China is taking steps to cool its property market as investors, including hedge fund manager James Chanos, warn of a bubble after prices surged in the world’s third-biggest economy. The latest data show prices gained a record 11.7 per cent in March, suggesting more severe policies are needed.
Local governments can limit the number of units that can be bought, while senior officials will be held responsible for failing to stabilise property prices, the State Council’s statement said.
The nation’s commercial banks have halted extending revolving loans after regulators began investigating the flow of funds into the stock market, the— China told banks to stop loans for third-home purchases as the government steps up measures to cool property prices with some of the “most Draconian” orders yet.
Securities Times
China Vanke, the nation’s biggest property developer, fell 8.2 per cent. Gemdale Corp. declined 8.5 per cent to 11.61 yuan on the Shanghai bourse.
The Se Shang Property Index of 34 Chinese developers slid 6.8 per cent, the biggest drop since August 19.
Industrial and Commercial Bank of China dropped 4.9 per cent, the biggest decline since October 2008, and China Merchants Bank plunged 6.4 per cent. Shenzhen Development Bank dropped 8.8 per cent.
China’s property stocks face “high policy risk”, GoldmanSachs Group analyst Yi Wang wrote in a report yesterday.

The new mortgage policy “if strictly implemented, could effectively curb speculation in select cities and could thus affect the near-term volume and price outlook in those cities”.said on Friday.

blackstreams ( Date: 19-Apr-2010 21:42) Posted:

Good to see everyone (especially pharoah with his troublesome keyboard) still bullish about this stock even tho selling pressure will probably be strong this week. I've shared before that the fundamentals of the company are strong and revenue streams will increase over the next two years, especially when their International Finance Centre project comes online.

TP has been recently lowered to about $0.65 for the moment but this is because of the uncertainty over the anticipated China govt actions to cool the overheating residential markets. But we all know how fast analysts can change their minds once this recent tide of negativism is over. I never believe their predictions.

In any case, Chongqing is not a rural province but is one of four self-governing states, along with Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. I've been to Chongqing a few times and the city centre is changing faster than you can hold your breath. I'd suggest those with holding power to load up some more if the US Goldman effect forces a retraction to $0.50 or lower, although I don't think it'll happen. Otherwise, just wait it out, this is a good stock and although many prefer Yanlord, I believe this has more upside potential for the longer term.

I'm not holding the stock nor am I interested in shorting it, so this is a strictly neutral view. A piece of good news, as of 2145hrs, NYSE stock futures are neutral after being down 30 pts earlier, rising because of the good reports from Citi and Eli Lilly and SGX futures indicate a flat market tomorrow. Hopefully some of the negativity is dissipating. Cheers and good luck.
