Date 14/06/2011

Bursa Malaysia Berhad is collaborating with ShareInvestor, the financial internet media and technology company and a subsidiary of Singapore Press Holdings (SPH), and SPH's business daily The Business Times to organise Malaysia GEMS 2011. The event will be held on Saturday, 18 June 2011 at the DBS Auditorium in Singapore.

Malaysia GEMS 2011 is a cross-border investor roadshow that showcases the investment merits of Malaysia's public-listed companies. Senior management from eight companies in industries ranging from oil and gas, construction and property development to healthcare will make presentations on their investment prospects.

During the one-day event, analysts from Maybank Investment Bank and CIMB Investment Bank will discuss the prospects of Malaysia's economy, quality investment recommendations and the industries that are linked to Malaysia's economic transformation programmes.

This event follows from the success of last year's Malaysia GEMS 2010 which attracted more than 450 participants.

Please see Appendix for the list of participating Malaysia public-listed companies.

Dato' Tajuddin Atan, Chief Executive Officer of Bursa Malaysia Berhad said, "The past year and a half has been an exciting one for Malaysia. The development from the New Economic Model and the Economic Transformation Programme will see a multiplier effect in several key sectors such as construction, property, commodity, and financial services, among others. Through Malaysia GEMS 2011, investors in Singapore will hear first-hand from selected companies about their vision and long-term growth plans. These are some of the companies that are in sectors that will benefit from Malaysia's transformation programme."

Mr Christopher Lee, Chief Executive Officer of ShareInvestor, said, "ShareInvestor is pleased to welcome back Malaysia GEMS 2011. We leverage on the Internet and events to promote dialogues between investors and public listed companies. With the good response to last year's inaugural event, Malaysia GEMS 2011 will present Singapore investors with more options to tap on the growing opportunities and potential of Malaysian companies."

Mr Alvin Tay, Editor of The Business Times, said, "The Business Times' editorial strength lies in our reach to investors and business decision makers.
