The doors are now wide open for the potential entry of SP Setia Bhd's Tan Sri Liew Kee Sin into Focal Aims Holdings Bhd after the latter accepted his eldest son's takeover bid.
Focal had accepted the offer by Liew Tian Xiong and Eco World Development Sdn Bhd to buy a 65 per cent stake at RM1.40 per share. Subsequently, Liew, who is seen as a proxy for his father, and Eco World have extended their offer to buy the remaining Focal Aims shares.
Liew had confirmed his departure from SP Setia and is likely to retire in March 2014 when the third put option at RM3.95 per share for his remaining stake in SP Setia is due.
Liew reportedly has 67.79 million shares, or 2.76 per cent stake, left in the country's largest property company by sales.
Prior to the takeover offer, Focal Aims is a low-key property developer with large tracts of land in Johor. Its share price had lingered below 60 sen for the past few years.
The men behind Eco World are Tan Sri Abdul Rashid Abdul Manaf and Datuk Leong Kok Wah. Both had been long-time board members of SP Setia.
The duo's close connection with Liew, who is SP Setia's president and chief executive, has led to speculation that Focal Aims would be a vehicle for him to mould after SP Setia.

Liew Kee Sin of Eco World and previously SP Setia has ghost finger print every where.
Refer to recent Wintoni fiasco:

Liew's man Yap Kok Weng and Chang Khim Wah is messing with another business group lead by businessman Tey Por Yee smallish company Wintoni.
It made perfect sense the link between the con man Chong Ket Pen shadow ghost and Liew's shadow masters, would be interesting how reckless some of the corporate rapist could be.
