Singapore Press Holdings (SPH SP)'s comments and answers about the SPH REIT Chain Offer may be misleading. 

China Mengniu (2319 HK) is in discussions regarding its holdings in Yashili (1230 HK) which may result in a number of "Potential Transactions", and may include a pre-conditional privatisation offer.

WH Group (288 HK) is two businesses - a US pork processor and a Chinese one - and both businesses are suffering lower margins than they'd like.

Quarz Capital objects to the proposed Mapletree Commercial Trust (MCT SP) / Mapletree North Asia Commercial Trust (MAGIC SP) as they claim it is damaging to MNACT unitholder interests.
Now they have written a letter to the Monetary Authority of Singapore asking them to Do Something to force MNACT directors to Do Something Different.

I doubt it comes to anything, but activist-ish letter commentary is my bag so...

In the waning hours of 2021, Mapletree Commercial Trust (MCT SP) and Mapletree North Asia Commercial Trust (MAGIC SP) proposed to merge to make a top 10 Asian REIT.
MCT shareholders and "The Market" did not like it and sent MCT units lower. MNACT holder Quarz didn't like it and complained. I wrote about all this.
But 6+ weeks after looking at new MCT trades as Heads I Win, Tails I Win, I revisit and see no reason to change my mind.
