Reference is made to an article appearing in NanYang Siang Pau on even date quoting a source alleging that CAP has the intention of transferring its listing to the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Based on its source, Low Thiam Hoe, a former executive director of Golden Plus Holdings Berhad (a company listed on the Main Board of Bursa Securities) and Lim Kim Chai, a major shareholder of Sersol Berhad (a company listed on the ACE Market of Bursa Securities) have recently been in touch with Terry Li GuoQing, the Managing Director and a major shareholder of CAP whereby the various parties are in discussions to jointly take full control of the Company and thereafter delist the Company from Bursa Securities and subsequently relist CAP on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. At present, 20% of CAP’s turnover is from South-East Asia of which the Indonesia market accounted for a large proportion. It was reported that based on its sources, the Indonesian car market is larger than Malaysian car market and hence the Company has the intention of seeking a listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and positioning it as an Indonesian brand to penetrate into the Indonesian market.

Once privatised, Low Thiam Hoe plans to list CAP on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. Based on the source, the Indonesian market has huge growth potential and the offeror has the intention of positioning CAP as an Indonesian company. It was reported that Low Thiam Hoe is working with He Jin Kun on the above privatisation.
