HwangDBS Makes A Comeback With The Interactive Break Time Bonus!

Kuala Lumpur, 15 July 2008 – HwangDBS Investment Management Berhad ("HwangDBS IM") is once again collaborating with The Sun Newspaper to roll-out another interactive column for the readers!

"HwangDBS IM is thrilled to announce the return of HwangDBS Investment Challenge which made its debut in 2007! Due to the overwhelming response last year, we have decided to make a come back to the Sun pages but this time with an added twist that will allow readers and those who missed out participation in the last Challenge, to gain more insights into unit trust investing. Sun readers are urged not to miss this opportunity to gain investment tips along with great prizes!" said Teng Chee Wai, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of HwangDBS IM.

The HwangDBS Break Time Bonus is a natural progression from just the provision of investment tips (in the HwangDBS Investment Challenge 07’) to an interactive platform whereby The Sun readers are encouraged to submit their burning questions or later, share their best investment tips with the rest.

Teng added, "The man on the street is often inundated by the numerous funds on the market and then, intimidated by the financial and legalistic jargon used in most of the financial literature. Hence, we feel there is a need for neutral investment guidance to those who are interested with the purpose of helping them achieve their long-term financial goals."
