In an effort of my small venture into share investment, I sometimes
asked some questions like: "How big is KWSP actually?", "Who
owns XXX company at the back?", "Is there a complete list of
GLCs?", "Who actually gained benefit from Toll Hike?" etc.
In
digging out those info I find these information publicly available and I would
like to share them in a small fast fact style with link attached for readers to
read further if they are interested to dig out more. My main source is
Wikipedia which I trusted much but yet still not error-free. Anyway, it remain
a good start for general info digging and navigate from there.
Small Fast Facts:
1.

as of 31/12/2014.

I hope I can keep this list alive and add many more facts to it. I guess
a category is necessary but I still cannot figure out how should there be done.
Guess things would come naturally when the list is expanded much.
