Yes. Bobby Lim Chye Huat who is also the CEO of Tai Sin Electric. He seemed to have special love for the listed SMEs as he ever mentioned somewhere during interview that he is keen to help them succeed. That's why he tended to accumulate but seldom sell them.
Now he owns 2.31% in starpharm. Let's monitor closely as anyone can easily buy 20-30% of starpharm to gain influence over the company, when biz improves which I believe is happening. Waiting for 2Q rpt to confirm
gangho, thank you for bringing Starpharm to our attention. I am getting interested. Could you tell me if you attended the recent AGM? Have you spoken with management before?

abb, I didn't attend the recent AGM. I just bought a bit lately and still digging for more info and monitoring its development. I will add more, hopefully still at below 5c, if 2Q rpt shows/confirms it has turned around.
Do share your view if you manages to find somethg interesting. Tq
it is interesting to note that Starpharm owns 60% in Beida Shijia tech which have been working on TCM pdts stated below...
Have been observing the price movement but it seems no sellers below 4.5c. Not sure if there will be many sellers between 4.5-5c. Any guess?
