Fraser and Neave Hong Kong unit fails to get approval for privatisation

The proposal for Frasers Property (China) Limited's privatisation was not approved by the requisite majority at a court meeting. It was also disapproved by more than 10% of the votes attaching to all the shares held by the independent shareholders.

The Scheme Document, together with the Letter from the Joint Offerors, have been despatched on 5 July 2012 to the Shareholders and the Optionholders.

Following the results of the court meeting, the scheme of arrangement in relation to the privatisation proposal cannot be implemented and has therefore lapsed.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
