furious with management, page-25

Tui,

My view is you will not get a response because news on a deal is pending (I could be wrong!)

Remember the M Chambers article from The Australian stated the takeover was 'believed' to be settled and news was expected before Xmas or early in the new year.
Either someone fed that journo a red herring or we are on the cusp of the news.

Something that has been floated elsewhere is that these delays could have to do with stretching the completion date just enough to get the 25c share issue over their one year anniversary, thus saving holders quite a slug of capital gains tax. I can see some merit in this proposition..mid april is the date when those share listed and FIRB and Chinese approvals could take 12 weeks plus some further documentation posting etc...would probably take the transaction to the other side of April 17.

Hope to hell I am right, I will be very disappointed if this just fizzles out over the next month.
