Maxbiz fails to trace missing assets (Edge)

Maxbiz Corp Bhd said today its missing assets of RM40.3 million could have generated sufficient returns to cover a RM1.8 million loan given to its subsidiary Mayford Garments Sdn Bhd (MGSB) by RHB Bank Bhd.

It said a winding-up order was made against MGSB on Feb 28, 2007 by RHB Bank as the company had defaulted on the RM1.8 million loan. Maxbiz said attempts were being made to resolve the matter with RHB Bank.

The missing assets comprised plant and machinery, a motor vehicle, office equipment, furniture and fittings, with a net book value of RM40.29 million as at Dec 31, 2006. The asset cost was RM64.44 million as at that date.

Maxbiz said directors who were appointed on June 26, 2007 and Nov 26, 2007 had failed to communicate with the former directors of MGSB over the missing assets. It has lodged police reports over the matter.

Maxbiz said it had written off its entire investment of RM47.11 million in MGSB last year.
