While Japan is taking in those loss, meanwhile ATHENS (AFP) The finance crisis in Greece loomed large over EU http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20091211/tts-finance-economy-greece-c1b2fc3.html http://www.theedgesingapore.com/the-daily-edge/business/10212-dbs-says-dubai-exposure-is-18b.html Global markets were roiled last week after Dubai World, the Arab emirate’s state-controlled holding company struggling with US$59 billion ($81.6 billion) in liabilities, asked creditors for a standstill on its debt and extension of loan maturities until at least May 30. Property arm Nakheel PJSC, the builder of palm tree-shaped islands, has a US$3.52 billion Islamic bond due on Dec 14. Analysts at Nomura Holdings Inc. said the exposure could hurt DBS’s earnings. DBS says Dubai exposure is $1.8b “While Dubai World exposure remains fluid, potential restructuring and/or a debt haircut is likely to necessitate provisioning expense during this quarter,” Yang-Myung Hong wrote in an e-mailed note to clients. “DBS has been posting quarterly pre-provision operating profit. DBS said the situation is manageable as a substantial portion of its exposure is to “Dubai-owned companies operating in Asia that are sound, such as Labroy and South Beach, which is collateralised,” The statement said of around $1 billion, and such one-off provisioning is likely to be a drag on the bottom line for the fourth quarter.” “As of today, the only credit that is captured under the standstill notice is a $558 million bilateral loan to Dubai World Finance, which represents 0.2% of DBS’s total balance sheet,” DBS said in a statement to the Singapore stock exchange today. Singapore’s central bank, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, said earlier it was “closely monitoring” developments of Dubai World and the United Arab Emirates and that the country’s banking industry’s total exposure was “well below” 1% of total banking assets. DBS Group Holdings, the largest bank in Southeast Asia, said its exposure to the city state of Dubai is about $1.8 billion, with the entire Middle East accounting for about 2% of its balance sheet. “We do not expect developments in Dubai to adversely affect Singapore’s financial stability,” it said in a statement today. |

This is one time bomb that must be treat with care on how to close the ever widering INCOME gap. short term solution is training, more skill training and upgrading, while long term solution hav't been found yet, it is always evolving.

Imagine if the same happened in Singapore. Thus from our forefather and into future generation (after the departure of PRs, foreigners and New Citizens), "Roll up your sleeves, work hard and take initiatives", a few will come from PRs, some foreigners and New Citizens. It has proven many time, We R doing thing right, since financial crises happened in 1997 and long B4 Dubai incident, calling on all three parties to work and has been very successuful applied by all concern. That the work of our PM Lee to oversea dark cloud that often hoovering over the horizon and ripple effect from constant storm raining on our home. Our workers knew somewhat, we has to price itself to has a premium in it product produce in our goods and services and remain to be competitive all the time. |

Roll up your sleeves? After the expensive expatriates and foreign talents left Dubai? Imagine if the same happened in Singapore and the Prime Minister pleads to the citizens of Singapore (after the departure of PRs, foreigners and New Citizens), "Roll up your sleeves, work hard and take initiatives".

Short term ...Okk. lahh, if one got at least two to hold.....buy hi-sell higher. Repost from (IPO-Forum) CapitalMalls Asia 1st wk, it went to a high of $2.39 and they after (2nd wk) it hit a new hi of $2.62 B4 it settled at $2.55. BBs is vested, For those looking for $2 or less, oni another Lehman incident may help. Just sharing my tot. It needed BBs a third round of more money to push it to it orginal grey of $2.80 and may stretch for amother 2 week or more. Merry X'mas.

Another wonderful crafting... http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_world_business/view/1021811/1/.html Dubai ruler says "roll up your sleeves" to support economy and ask his people's to do so, while been the biggest horse owner in England, he is asking for (Dubai World's debt) US$26 billion payment extended....hummm. Speaking to reporters, he stressed that the Dubai government and debt-laden Dubai World are not one and the same, then and then.... In his first public statement since Dubai World said it plans to halt payments for at least the next six months on its 59 billion US dollars of borrowings, Sheikh Mohammed said: "Today our economy is one of the largest economies of the world in terms of power and stability." teeth53 tot: so far no clearer picture appear on how to save this ship, uncertainty remain to been seen |
