While the privatization offer of UMW is seemed like more firm and certain in a way that both of them are sharing a common major shareholder whoch is Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB).
PNB’s motive and plan to seal the deal is clearly a “must-go” because they have the intention to consolidate the automotive business of both UMW and SIME DARBY, in order to pave a way for the listing of PERODUA for the years to come.
However , on the other hand, the deal between$KLK (2445.MY)$and$BPLANT (5254.MY)$is in the face of doubt , due to the second postponement of the privatization deal, and this has caused the share price of Bplant to dipped for a near 20% during the market hours today.
While LTAT (being the parent co of Bplant) is looking eager to dispose the stakes in BPLANT, KLK seems like having extra advantages in negotiating for a best deal , but nothing is certain , as for now.
