PETALING JAYA: Billionaire Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary has proposed to take conglomerate MMC Corp Bhd private at almost RM3bil and offered to buy out exiting shareholders at a premium of over 70%.
His indirectly owned company, Seaport Terminal (Johore) Sdn Bhd, told Bursa Malaysia yesterday that it plans to privatise MMC by way of a selective capital reduction and repayment (SCR) exercise.
