Following these disposals, the pension fund\u2019s stake in Serba Dinamik has shrunk to 367.41 million shares or a 9.9%.<\/p>\r\n On the reversal, Abdul Karim has himself moped up five million shares on May 31 \u2013 the day Serba Dinamik resumed trading after a two-day suspension following the flagging of accounting issues on its FY2020 financials by the company\u2019s external auditor KPMG on May 25.<\/p>\r\n Meanwhile, fellow non-independent non-executive director Datuk Abdul Kadier Sahib has thus far amassed 11 million shares in the company.<\/p>\r\n The company\u2019s second-largest shareholder after Abdul Karim (27.07% stake) has acquired an additional three million shares in the open market on June 4 after purchasing five million shares on June 2 and three million shares on June 3, thus raising his shareholding to 602.9 million shares or 16.25%.<\/p>\r\n At 12.29pm, Serba Dnamik was down 1.5 sen or 2.34% to 62.5 sen with 92.68 million shares traded, thus valuing the company at RM2.34 bil. \u2013 June 11, 2021<\/p>","post_title":"Serba Dinamik: Awang Daud has no intention to exit the

implementation of the policy in May 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Commenting on Supermax \u201cbeing left out of the race\u201d, migrant worker and labour rights activist and researcher Andy Hall urged the company to \u201cremediate properly in one lump sum and to address the issue of the company\u2019s large outsourced and irregular workforce.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As with Kossan working towards finalising its remediation programme, Hall welcomed the move as a step forward to ensuring more at risk migrant workers in Malaysia are taken out of debt bondage and forced labour situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cGiven the current interest in forced labour within Kossan\u2019s operations by CBP (the US Customs and Border Protection), the lump sum repayment which is in line with industry developments was to be expected,\u201d he told FocusM<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThis is after all a healthy investment for the future and is part of ESG (environment, social and governance) abidance which has become a norm among today\u2019s fund managers\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On June 8, fellow Big-Four glove maker Hartalega Holdings Bhd completed its remediation of recruitment fees totalling RM41 mil within eight months of its commencement in November 2020 which according to the company was \u201cahead of its initial target\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hartalega said the reimbursement was made to current workers who joined the group prior to the implementation of its zero-recruitment cost policy on April 1, 2019 and had previously paid recruitment fees to employment agents during the recruitment process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On Oct 6 last year, Top Glove Corp Bhd announced that it will pay RM136 mil over the next 10 months to compensate its migrant workers as part of its efforts to resolve the CBP import ban over forced labour claims. \u2013 June 11, 2021<\/p>\n","post_title":"Supermax: Have you done your bit to reimburse your foreign
