Dear fellow Bousteadians,<br />

As we journey further into financial year 2012, you would<br />

be aware that we closed financial year 2011 on a very<br />

strong note, achieving record pr<strong>of</strong>its and revenue that<br />

has never been achieved before by the Boustead Group.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Group ended the year with a solid performance<br />

registering a record pr<strong>of</strong>it before tax <strong>of</strong> RM831 million<br />

for the full year, marking a 14% improvement on the<br />

back <strong>of</strong> a 38% increase in record turnover amounting to<br />

RM8.6 billion. <strong>The</strong>se results are a clear testament to our<br />

teamwork and hard work.<br />

While almost all Divisions have performed exceedingly<br />

well, our Plantation Division has once again led the year<br />

due to robust crude palm oil prices. Property as well<br />

as Trading and Manufacturing Division made a great<br />

achievement with a jump in pr<strong>of</strong>it and we are delighted<br />

that the Pharmaceutical Division, the latest addition<br />

to our Group, has performed equally well over a short<br />

period <strong>of</strong> time.<br />

Our Finance and Investment Division have also maintained<br />

its role in contributing to our Groups performance and<br />

growth while we expect Heavy Industries Division to<br />

perform even better in this coming financial year with<br />

the construction <strong>of</strong> the Second Generation Patrol Vessels.<br />

External conditions will continue to have an impact on<br />

our Group. However, given our past results and your<br />

commitment, I am certainly confident that we will rise to<br />

the challenge and aim to deliver another good year for<br />

our shareholders and stakeholders.<br />

Thank you.<br />

Staf Boustead yang dihargai,<br />

Ketika kita mengharungi tahun kewangan 2012 seterusnya,<br />

anda pasti sedar yang kita telah mengakhiri tahun<br />

kewangan 2011 dengan baik sekali di mana kita telah<br />

mencapai keuntungan dan pendapatan yang amat<br />

memberangsangkan, iaitu satu rekod yang belum pernah<br />

dicapai oleh Kumpulan Boustead sebelum ini.<br />

Kumpulan mengakhiri tahun dengan prestasi cemerlang<br />

dengan rekod keuntungan sebelum cukai sebanyak RM831<br />

juta bagi tahun tersebut, peningkatan sebanyak 14% di<br />

atas perolehan yang meningkat sebanyak 38%, juga satu<br />

rekod, yang berjumlah RM8.6 bilion. Keputusan-keputusan<br />

ini adalah bukti terhadap keberkesanan kerja berpasukan<br />

dan ketekunan kakitangan kita.<br />

Hampir kesemua Bahagian kita telah menunjukkan prestasi<br />

yang sangat baik di mana Bahagian Perladangan telah<br />

mendahului sekali lagi tahun ini disebabkan harga minyak<br />

sawit mentah yang amat baik. Bahagian Hartanah serta<br />

Bahagian Perdagangan dan Pembuatan mencatatkan satu<br />

pencapaian besar dengan peningkatan dalam keuntungan<br />

dan kita amat gembira dengan Bahagian Farmaseutikal<br />

yang telah menunjukkan prestasi yang sama baik dalam<br />

jangka masa yang singkat.<br />

Bahagian Kewangan dan Pelaburan turut memainkan<br />

peranan dengan memberi sumbangan kepada prestasi dan<br />

pertumbuhan Kumpulan dan kita menjangkakan Bahagian<br />

Industri Berat dapat menunjukkan prestasi yang lebih<br />

baik pada tahun kewangan akan datang melalui projek<br />

pembinaan Kapal Peronda Generasi Kedua.<br />

Keadaan luaran akan terus memberi impak kepada<br />

Kumpulan kita. Walau bagaimanapun, berdasarkan<br />

keputusan-keputusan serta komitmen kita yang lalu, saya<br />

begitu yakin bahawa kita dapat mengharungi cabaran dan<br />

mencapai satu lagi tahun yang baik untuk para pemegang<br />

saham dan stakeholder kita.<br />

Terima kasih.<br />

Jokes <strong>of</strong> the day<br />

Kia and Rolls-Royce<br />

A guy in a Kia pulled up next to a Rolls-<br />

Royce at a red light and asked, “Hey, is<br />

your car Bluetooth enabled?” <strong>The</strong> Rolls<br />

owner nodded.<br />

“So is mine. Got Wi-Fi?” <strong>The</strong> Rolls owner<br />

nodded again. “Me too. What about a<br />

double bed?”<br />

“No. Do you?” asked the Rolls guy.<br />

“Yep.” <strong>The</strong> light turned green and the Kia<br />

took <strong>of</strong>f. Jealous, the Rolls guy headed<br />

to the Pimp My Rolls customising shop<br />

and got a double bed put in, then drove<br />

around until he found the Kia parked on<br />

the side <strong>of</strong> the road. He knocked on the<br />

window. “Guess what. I got a double bed<br />

put in my car too.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Kia owner peered out. “You got me<br />

out <strong>of</strong> the shower to tell me that?!”<br />

Know how to pray<br />

As the storm raged, the Captain realised<br />

his ship was sinking fast. He called out,<br />

“Anyone here know how to pray?”<br />

One man stepped forward. “Aye, Captain,<br />

I know how to pray.”<br />

“Good,” said the Captain, “you pray while<br />

the rest <strong>of</strong> us put on our life jackets —<br />

we’re one short.”<br />

A meeting in an Iron<br />

Curtain Country<br />

At a meeting in an Iron Curtain country,<br />

a Party member, Comrade Dobrinsky,<br />

got up from his seat and said, “Comrade<br />

Leader, I have only three questions to<br />

ask. If we are the greatest industrial<br />

nation in the world, what has happened<br />

to our automobiles? If we have the<br />

best agriculture in the world, what has<br />

happened to our bread? If we are the<br />

finest cattle raisers in the world, what has<br />

happened to our meat?”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Party chairman stared at Comrade<br />

Dobrinsky for a moment, then declared,<br />

“It is too late to reply to your questions<br />

tonight. I will answer them at our next<br />

meeting.”<br />

When the meeting opened the following<br />

week, another Party member rose and<br />

said, “I have just one question. What<br />

happened to Comrade Dobrinsky?”<br />

Send them a bill<br />

A lawyer and a doctor were having dinner<br />

at their country club. “I have a real<br />

problem,” the doctor said to the lawyer.<br />

“Members <strong>of</strong> this club ask me all kinds <strong>of</strong><br />

medical questions. This hurts my practice.<br />

What can I do?”<br />

“That’s easy,” the attorney replied. “Send<br />

them a bill.”<br />

Two days later the doctor received a bill<br />

from the lawyer.<br />

Lousy rug<br />

Forsyth was a big-game hunter and a big<br />

bore. He had cornered a dinner guest in<br />

his trophy room to explain in great detail<br />

how each <strong>of</strong> his kills had been made.<br />

Pointing to a large tiger skin on the floor,<br />

he boasted, “I got that one in India. Just<br />

stumbled on him. I had no choice. It was<br />

either the tiger or me.”<br />

“<strong>The</strong> tiger was a wise choice,” sighed a<br />

weary guest. “You’d have made a lousy<br />

rug.”<br />

Five miles a day<br />

A doctor told Uncle Fudd that if he ran<br />

five miles a day for 300 days, he would<br />

lose 75 pounds. At the end <strong>of</strong> 300 days,<br />

Uncle Fudd called the doctor to report<br />

he had lost the weight, but he had a<br />

problem.<br />

“What’s the problem?” asked the doctor.<br />

“I’m 1500 miles from home.”<br />

Surprise tour and a lazy<br />

young man<br />

<strong>The</strong> owner <strong>of</strong> a manufacturing plant<br />

decided to make a surprise tour <strong>of</strong> the<br />

shop. Walking through the warehouse,<br />

he noticed a young man lazily leaning<br />

against a packing crate. “Just how much<br />

are you being paid a week?” the boss<br />

angrily asked him.<br />

“A hundred bucks,” answered the lounging<br />

guy.<br />

<strong>The</strong> boss pulled out his wallet and peeled<br />

<strong>of</strong>f five $20 bills. “Here’s a week’s pay,” he<br />

shouted. “Now get out and don’t come<br />

back!”<br />

Wordlessly, the young man stuffed the<br />

money into his pocket and took <strong>of</strong>f. <strong>The</strong><br />

warehouse manager, standing nearby,<br />

stared in amazement. “Tell me,” the boss<br />

said, “how long has that guy worked for<br />

us?”<br />

“He didn’t work here,” replied his<br />

employee. “He was just delivering a<br />

package.”<br />

Broken into the dress shop<br />

“You admit having broken into the dress<br />

shop four times?” asked the judge.<br />

“Yes,” answered the suspect.<br />

“And what did you steal?”<br />

“A dress, Your Honour,” replied the<br />

suspect.<br />

“One dress?” echoed the judge, “But you<br />

admit breaking in four times!”<br />

“Yes, Your Honour,” sighed the suspect.<br />

“But three times my wife didn’t like the<br />

color.”<br />

Had her begging<br />

Two men were talking at the <strong>of</strong>fice water<br />

cooler. One was telling the other about a<br />

fight he’d had with his wife. “In the end,”<br />

he said, “I had her begging on her knees.”<br />

“What did she say?” asked the coworker.<br />

“She told me to come out from under the<br />

bed.”<br />

No future inheritances<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re’s good news and bad news,” the<br />

divorce lawyer told his client.<br />

“I could sure use some good news,” sighed<br />

the client. “What is it?”<br />

“Your wife isn’t demanding that your<br />

future inheritances be included in the<br />

settlement.”<br />

“And the bad news?”<br />

“After the divorce, she’s marrying your<br />

father.”<br />
