MSWG (Minority Shareholder Watchdog Group) issued a statement in today's Sun paper regarding their role and a blurb re Genneva : http://www.thesundaily.my/news/682407
Excerpts include :
"Complaints received by MSWG are discussed in managements meeting held twice a week to decide on whether there is merit for the organisation to champion the issue.
For example Bushon said, while the organisation had received complaints on the Country Heights Growers' Scheme, none were received on the Genneva Malaysia Sdn Bhd case, which saw a reported 35,000 investors caught when the authorities raided the company for wrong-doing and froze its assets.
"Also in the case of Genneva, besides it being run by a private limited company, this was a case that had already been taken up by the authorities," she said.
Bushon pointed out the MSWG is not an enforcement agency, it is a voice of influence which has a role to alert the authorities of minority investors issues.
"I always envisage MSWG as a voice of influence, we bring up the issues but finallly its for the betterment of the investors community and company, its for the whole ecosystem. Like a barking dog you don't go and bite, we don't have the enforcement powers, so we don't bite but we can bark, we alert and I think that is very important," she said.
