damn the thieves. hope they get caught soon.

wonder which models they got away with. quite a big sum there.

caveat emptor, buyer beware ...

Something I don't really understand.... the company claimed the total loss of the S$7.9 million, the net tangible assets for the year ending March 2009 could be down by 4.8 Singapore cents per share.

In this case, Insurance don't cover one meh? To my understanding, if there is a break-in and when goods are stolen from safe and there are sufficient secuity protection in place, the company should be able to claim what is lost... So why earning per share will drop by 3.5 cents?

Don't tell me that they don't buy insurance huh???
