Malaysian banks are very undervalued opposite of Indonesia now. MBB, CIMB, Public Bank and Hong Leong bank market cap should be at least 20% - 25% higher but, the local markets a bit depressed.

What factors? Is that a trick question? Just kidding. Well, rich Taiwanese fear for their wealth in the face of invasion threats from China and Filthy rich China man fear their wealth and are escaping from the grasp of the ccp given the financial troubles in China. In communism regime, what's yours is theirs if they need it for nation building. The Straits of SG is a natural resource neither USA nor China owns. Its worth its weight in gold. SG need not take sides because of this super power. So the 3rd super power is SG followed by India

About the overpriced of BCA, it is because of the difference of market expected potential only. Because the average Singaporean is already rich, which make the expected potential low, while the average Indonesian is still poor but has 5% plus average growth and inefficiency that has a high interest rate gap making the expected potential higher. The difference in the price to book value on stock market only shows the difference in expected future expansion and nothing more.

Exactly!

@@sngs9565 Exactly

I concur

Also, low taxation and allow money laundering to occur.

But Singapore's Temasek loses money investing in cryptocurrencies

@@user-rb3qe5es9p just a piece of peanut

@@user-rb3qe5es9p Ya, but they made more money overall compared to the tiny amount lost in bitcoin. You mean you always win when you invest? Even Warren Buffet also made loses from time to time.

@@johnchua9387 that's called hypocrisy. It's no different than telling others not to steal, but ownself went stealing, and when caught, just simply say it's not a big amount (S$700million not big amount??) so it's no big deal.

FTX is a setup and people fell for it. There is backdoor to siphon money from the accounts and laundering of drug money for the globalists..

Too bad. More lazy singaporean will vote for opposition

Singapore is still a flawed democracy because it is not entirely free and fair in the political arena (even the US is classified as a flawed democracy). And we certainly do slant more towards one side than the other. The strategic waterway is the Straits of Melaka, not the Straits of Singapore, and last I checked, it bothers Malaysia and Indonesia too.

​@@huaiweipls be politically correct. I am uneasy if you speak politically incorrectly😅

Singapore's democracy index is ranked 66th. Indonesia is ranked 52nd, the Philippines is ranked 54th, both of these countries already have a better democracy than Singapore. It's far, way far from what you call it as a "flawless" democracy.

@@kenhew4641 English is an Art, so it depends on how you define it as flawless democracy

Haha funny.

HSBC belongs to British

They forced employer to pay u extra 17%. They gave u 3% interests no matter how well their investments is.

That's not a bank though. And other countries have their own pension funds.

@@Jkl62200 pension funds are in no way similar to the CPF system. More than half of CPF funds are our own money, while pensions are entirely from the employer.

Taman is more concerned about the lack of women shareholders on Board of Directors. Anybody else interested?

can u back up with facts? also that $2 is bank fee. the west in the 90s already charge such fees

the only period that thailand was a powerhouse was pre asian financial crisis mate

Let the facts speak for themselves. Bigger than S'pore , bigger than M'sia. So why Thai banks out?

Because Thailand is not an economic powerhouse. It could have been if Thaksin remained in power, but you know what happens next. 😉

Oh really? Among their big five banks, three are foreign (HSBC and SCB from the UK and BOC from China). How big is Hang Seng Bank?

@@huaiwei Hong Kong has a lot of international banks (Jp Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Bank of India etc…) and Hang seng bank actually operates in many Asia countries, don’t look down on Hang Seng bank

HK is a banking casino and money laundering center for C CP elites.

Ya, Hong Kong is more entrepreneurial.

Yes becoz of such people like u with no saving.

This video literally just debunked what you claimed.

High on weed again

smash this malaysia fly

Poor soul, you run out of darts to chastise Singapore? Small fly like you better beware of the swatter.

The truth is you need to get a proper education.

That's true for most banks in other countries also, bro
