Best way is not to buy those shorts. Let them short but no buyers, they will have to cover.
 
To avoid shortie action the only way is to stay away from BUYING on Exdate. In that way shortie can only short at much much lower price and lesser volume so it may hurt their profit.   Hope this will help.
Share price prior to Dividend (~$0.072) announcement @14 Feb = 2.34 closed
Share price on announcement @15 Feb = $2.51, up by whopping $0.17
Bad news hit the price till now ~2.10 (lucky good news from US)
Ex date on 3 May.   Usually price will drop on Ex date (maybe shortie will come in again for this particular stock), so i think be careful if you are holding to a stock that eventually price dive after dividend announcement. 
AGM on 26 Apr, if results good, it will fly up. May is dividend of 5 USD cents. So, this two factors will probably move it up.
Stay tuned.
Those who are holding long, do not short together with the shortist. That is what they want.
I also found out something. When we post something here, the counter suddenly get shorted.
Someone from here is heavily shorting this counter.
Once it rebound, it will fly all the way as those who short must cover within time otherwise they will make major loss.
Those who shorted at 2.12 yesterday  is real silly.
Vested 20lots @ 2.08
gd luck

Thank you for all the advices.
Usually  invest in cheaper  blue chips oni, so seldom cut loss,  instead i will average down and waiting for it to rebound.
Shall  learning the arts of cut loss.   
usually it will drop after dividend(Ex date).   however this is a good stock which was artificial press down by external factor but fundamentally still damn strong.

Dont have much reserves to average down. So wondering  is it stable (like those blue chips)  to  hold for a few mths awaiting for  it to rebound back? During the mean time juz collect dividend.
 
Any advice?

Victor,
What the potential to this counter?
Can hold this for long  term if i have not cut loss earlier since i bought it at 2.34.
