PIC invest based on the investment mandate of their clients. In our case, the client is the Gov't Employee Pension Fund (GEPF). This would explain their lack of regard for our share price and disinterest in dealing with shareholders direct, as evidenced by the referral to ML.

More information on GEPF's investment mandate and ESG criteria would be helpful.
