Bumi-Energi, another promises

Bisnis Indonesia quoted Ari S. Hudaya, president director of PT Bumi Resources Tbk, saying it will pursue the buyback of 10% listed shares despite the collapse of US$3.2 billion divestment of subsidiaries.

Hudaya said the company is in talks with some investors for the next round of divestment process. The difference, this time Bumi would only divest minority shares at the coal subsidiaries. The company is also in talks with banks to finance the shares buyback.
Some newspapers also quoted directors of PT Energi Mega Persada Tbk saying the planned merger with Bumi would be implemented despite calls from stock market authority to review the plan following the collapse of Bumi-Borneo deal. Energi also announced the US$154 million funding from Credit Suisse to finance its oil and gas projects.
The market seems to react negatively to these promises. Lucky that suspension on Bumi shares trading is still in place. Look at Energi (ENRG) which dropped 8.7% to Rp520 on Monday's trading. The target price for merger was Rp870.

Like minority share holders, they wont get any divident payments or share buyback until in paradise,,,
