By definition of distribution, thy are not holding or giving away any "profits". Any funds can give away distribution even when the fund is not profitable.

This is why it is important to use the term distribution and not dividend. A company cannot (I am not sure if legally) give away dividend when they are making a loss. SO when you refer the distributions given by ASB/other-UT as dividends, you are implying that the fund size grew over they year. No such thing.

Rebooting PNB: https://www.thestar.com.my/business/busines...1/rebooting-pnb

Forgot to share this yesterday. Didn't know they controlled so many highways (All of them in Klang Valley?).

Thanks for the reminder.

Another reboot : https://www.thestar.com.my/business/busines...t-more-overseas

Ahhh I see. thanks for the clarification.

what's the bonus 0.5% dividend calculation again?

will they increase the limit to 300k instead of the 200k limit now?

For ASB 0.5% bonus?

eh, so no difference? just times 5.5% only??

I thought last time they said, it includes past years' balances? Have they changed the calculation?

That was for 2017 and before. Due to a lot of people squabbling about bonus calculations, they changed it to make it just like normal ASB distribution.

5.5% is not bad at all, I don't know why some people complaining about it. Sigh.

huh?? why they changed in 2017!!!!!!!

I did my calculation in an excel.... now need to change again.

but the calculation is simpler right now, so why does it matter?

plus if you had used the wrong calculation, you would know that it is "off" based on your real-returns now

btw, you got ASB units? I am still not clear about the eligibility of non-bumiputeras in getting ASB1 units. In general, I believe the answer is no.

Anyone else getting invalid amount when trying to transfer from FPX? Happened twice already today.

no luck yet today

did you try using a different bank the second time?

Sitting in PNB there.
A chinese lady walk past and decided wanna sell rm 2800 something.

I asked the officer can they directly sell to me , they replied with no.

Ended up i need to snatched the unit via online. Managed to get 2k ASM.

Why the SOP so difficult zzz...

And i wonder now, can they directly transfer to me then i pay them in cash (of course i pay the rm 15 transaction fee)

I thought a lot of people do private deals? Transfer then pay in cash?

you should've asked the walking lady instead of officer. ASN does not offer direct deal. #define 2800something "2888.88" ?

No, but I suspect might be a problem with FPX.

My wife and I tried to transfer 8k to SSPN over the weekend with different accounts but we both failed. A RM20 transfer succeeded, though. Not sure what's the issue.

different accounts but same bank or not?

managed to get 2x1k ASM1. no problem with paying.

the officer stated that our quota is different, and the deal can't make it through ?
I'm like .. what ?

Do ASM1/2/3 had their own Chinese:Bumi:Indian quota?

And for beLIEve , she withdraw 28XX.XX to make the account round number of 20k unit.

Oh yeah, any private group that people wanna buy or sell their ASM1/2/3 ?
I'm tired to click 10 times, then get booted out, then retry in 5 minutes...

at least during last time, i have the auto-decaptcha and auto-clicker standby....Now it is mentally torturing for a mere rm1k rm 500 sum ...

ASM 1 and 3 no racial quota. ASM 2 51% bumi quota.

Someone here already tested transfer ASM 2 bumi to non bumi and system rejected.

Not aware of private groups that trade. Don't think many want to let strangers know how loaded they are.

It's supposed to be mentally torturing. They allow non-bumi to buy considered give face already. If don't want mental torture, in EPF you trust.

ASM3 got racial quota lah i.e. 50:30:15:5
