8 Hock Lian Seng
9 Cerebos Pacific
10 Metro

The only inclusion in december was Visa and Techcomp. The small caps in Singapore do not really suit me now.

In 2010, I divested most of Hiap Seng and Broadway in May. The reason why was I feel that flash will be more and more a dominant component for computers. The Ipad is an early indicator. Hiap Seng has already completed most of its projects (higher revenue recocnigition and cash position). I also had to take out some cash for my property.

In May, I also completely exited my commodity trades. I might increase my portfolio gains by another 30-40% if I have kept my position in gold/silver as after my dad incident, I do not have the emotional capacity to hold on to volaitle position, there are already too many things on my mind.

Things that got away. I had actually 2 baggers which doubled that I was holding, AAC and Eu Yan Sang, but I got shaken out by 2 occasion. AAC was a play on the booming smartphones, but I did not had enough time to do much study. too bad

2011 going forward
Going forward Boustead should perform alright in the correct industry (Energy/ Water / Real Estate ). With capable leaders like FF Wong running the helm, and boosted by close to 40 cents cash board, I expect shareholders to continue to be rewarded

Super should do well with its additionaly plant in China, commitment to payout a high dividend and its Taiwan dual listing visibility


It is heartening to see after 8 years that I have something to show for. Since 2003 I have made 10 times my capital. I will set a target to accomplish another 100x in 15 years.

FY03 1.3743
FY04 0.882
FY05 1.6745
FY06 2.5514
FY07 1.36
FY08 0.94
FY09 1.09
FY10 1.42
10.19476939
