The Breakfast Grille

When Evergreen Max Cash Capital debuted on Bursa Malaysia in September 2023, they were just one of two publicly-listed pawnbroking firms. Today there are a total of three. I do want to find out what they have done with their IPO proceeds in the past year or so, since Shazana last spoke with them a few weeks after their market debut - whether what they’ve promised in terms of expansion, gaining credibility have actually happened. Also how much truth in there that this pawnbroking industry is one that only does well when times are bad.

What's The Focus

It's WTF or what’s the focus, our weekly wrap up show on all the news, tidbits and other juicy morsels you might have missed. Particularly useful when you want to change topics during Chinese New year from like "why aren’t you married", "when are you having children", "how much do you earn" and the list goes on. But in our mix today, the power of a US presidential pardon, is the World Economic Forum relevant or is it just a club for billionaires and world leaders and finally, a lone voice that says 1MDB was good for the country.
