THERE is renewed interest in Khazanah Nasional Bhd’s not insubstantial stakes in many government-linked companies following the recent sale of a 5% share in Telekom Malaysia Bhd to the Singapore government’s investment agency, Temasek Holdings.
Analysts said yesterday there could be more equity placements to come, with some wondering which companies’ shares could be up for sale next were Khazanah to divest more interests, especially the large stakes built up during rescue exercises post-1997/98.
