"Subsequent to that, Kenanga Investment Bank Bhd ([You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Valuation: 1.95, Fundamental: 1.80) had on Sept 2 announced on behalf of the board of directors of Heng Huat that the application for the proposed transfer has been submitted to theSecurities Commission Malaysia (SC) on the evendate for the SC's consideration.

"At present time, the application for the proposed transfer is still pending the consideration of the SC," said Heng Huat.

The company said it will make the necessary announcements if there are any developments on the proposed transfer of listing.
