KPS/Puncak Niaga/JAKS ... Nov 2008

Market talk was that the consolidation between the two players (KPS & Puncak Niaga) could be concluded by year-end. Kumpulan Darul Ehsan Bhd (KDEB), the investment arm of the Selangor state government, has 60% equity in KPS.

As part of a consolidation exercise, KDEB has been looking to either buy over Puncak Niaga or its assets, (70% unit Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd or Syabas) and 82.5% subsidiary Puncak Niaga Holdings (M) Sdn Bhd), and has had meetings with Rozali towards this end, with no real outcome.
