I was actually thinking people who contra to buy this last week / monday are selling it off today thats why dropping ...

We will see how it goes next week

bought another 5,000 @ 1.63

Good support from brother zamans98.......any idea of the rumour of BIMB being taken over by others?


Well, more than 2 to 3 weeks had pass & still no slightest idea of it being taken over or merge with some bigger banks.......hopefully some rich Arabs will do it.


Cheers brother zamans98....much love.

No idea when. The plan will go through. Dato Zeti is pushing towards mega-Islamic banking in Malaysia.

If dropped again below 1.60, will reload again.

The easiest way is to merge or take over Bank Islam.

good-good

Latest rumour is that it's CIMB & not Maybank will be one taking over BIMB.....don't know how true is this rumour.


Anyone of you got any news or updates?



Cheers to all.
