If you're a Bumiputra, put all of it into ASB. Once you have maxed out on ASB, you can consider ASW2020 and ASD.


Chinese portion was fully subscribed like one or two months ago. CIMB Bank did make the announcement in their website.

what if im not bumi?

If its long term investment then go for gold.

Then you have to think and work hard for yourself, as of now, there is nothing good left for you that is offered by ASNB. Good luck and welcome to reality.

ASNB Declares Income Distribution Of 6.35 Sen Per Unit For Amanah Saham Didik

KUALA LUMPUR, June 15 (Bernama) -- Amanah Saham Nasional Bhd (ASNB), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB), today announced an income distribution of 6.35 sen per unit for Amanah Saham Didik (ASD) for the financial year ending June 30 2010. PNB Chairman Tun Ahmad Sarji Abdul Hamid said the income distribution would involve a total payment of RM207.75 million, an increase of 33.50 per cent compared with RM155.59 million paid last year.

"The income distribution will benefit 293,504 unit holders who collectively owned 3.59 billion units," he said when announcing the income distribution here today. Until June 11, 2010, ASD recorded a gross income of RM258.33 million with dividend income from investee companies contributng RM89.09 million or 34.49 per cent to the total income. Profits from the sale of shares contributed RM149.00 million or 57.68 per cent while the remaining income of RM20.24 million or 7.83 per cent was derived from investments in short-term instruments.

Ahmad Sarji said since its launch in 2001, ASD has always been the preferred fund for Bumiputera investors who were interested to invest in their children's education. Up to May 31, 2010, the fund had received a total of 67,403 new unit holders, an increase of 29.96 per cent while net inflow of new funds also ncreased by 603.22 million units or 21.26 per cent.

ASD is a fixed priced equity-income fund aimed at providing investment opportunities which can generate long-term growth and competitive returns to unitholders. The income distribution of ASD will be automatically re-invested in the form of units and credited into the unit holders' accounts on July 1, 2010. All transactions for ASD will be suspended between June 23 and June 30, 2010 to facilitate calculation of income distribution.

Maybe your address info is wrong, u can check with PNB or its agent on the last updated add. i received mine few weeks ago

No worries. I haven't received mine either.

check your address on the asm pass book to see if it's correct.

Is it worth it to withdraw ASN and put into ASN2 since the ASN2 is gonna close? Can get fast dividen with this way but is worth it?

ASN2 not closed forever, it is closed till the month end for the dividend calculation, will reopen in 1st July.

Dude want to buy or not?

If you have extra money in FD, then you can consider to go for it. Remember have to be tied down for three years. I think if you configure your own investment can easily get above 5% annual ROI.

NOT Really, you can sell any time. Not necessarily tied down.
