Dear All,

1. As at 29 December 2006, 29.12% of the issued shares of PBB were held by foreigners.

2. The percentage of EPF's direct interests in Public Bank Berhad ("PBB") shares of 8.8% is computed based on the total number of PBB shares in issue excluding a total of 124,214,500 PBB shares bought-back by PBB and retained as treasury shares as at 19 January 2007.

Looks like Public Bank is still a good buy.
