It could also be possible that DRB sells it to somebody else. But you have to read this together with the MMC decision to buy Senai Airport. No denying that they are bringing in money back to Malaysia after romping through the mid-east Could be a good deal, with share prices at all time low, some would really buy back their shares from the government.

Their market share is dropping for past 5 years to HONDA and then to YAMAHA and now at No.3 for motorcycle sales. As I can recall their market share is increasing back for the past 2 years. and because of the fuel price the motorcycle industry has brighter future. more sale more volume. For kapcai & scooter, there no heavily protection like car industry. everybody has to play at same ground. yes MODENAS performance has deteriorated for past few years, however in 10 years of business 9 out of 10 years is profitable.

But Modenas, with very-very fierce competition out there, it survives. Maybe DRB sees a magic in Modenas..,

None of is member company can be considered successful company. Even the co can not be comparable with the succesful Johor Corporation. Modenas's performances has been deteriorated for the past 5 years. Let DRB-Hicom to fully control the company, will see Modenas going to the grave.
