Kejuruteraan Asastera Bhd has proposed to diversify into the sustainable energy solutions segment and is planning to raise RM119 million from a private placement partly to fund the diversification. It said the move is part of the group’s strategy to diversify its business and create an additional source of income on top of the existing contribution from its core mechanical and electrical engineering business.

The Energy Commission has extended Tenaga Nasional Bhd’s (TNB) existing power purchase agreement for the Sungai Perak hydroelectric power plants by five years from Sept 1, 2022, until Aug 24, 2027. The utility giant’s wholly owned subsidiary TNB Power Generation Sdn Bhd had received an extension letter from the Energy Commission.

One of the resolutions at Jade Marvel’s EGM, which sought to diversify the group’s existing business to include mining, sale and trading of iron ore, dolomite, sand and other minerals, garnered 42.0152% or 38.8 million shares for it, while 57.9842% voted or 53.55 million shares voted against it.

In a bourse filing on Wednesday, Trive Property said its unit Trive Property Sdn Bhd (TPSB) has sent a letter to SPNB’s wholly owned subsidiary Tenaga Meriah Sdn Bhd (TMSB) to abort the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) they had entered in 2017 to facilitate talks on the matter.
