		Guthrie’s lawyers have argued that no such promises were made and, even if there were, the workers have no right to continue occupying the workers quarters after ceasing to be Guthrie workers - the proper recourse is for the ex-workers to file a case against Guthrie for breach of promise.
		The Guthrie ex-workers from Kamiri and Changkat Salak are now asking the Perak State Government to “walk the talk” and use Section 3 of the Land Acquisition Act to acquire 5 acres of Guthrie land to give to the affected families.

		KUMPULAN Guthrie Bhd has defended its decision to stake its future in Indonesia as the kind of forward thinking that could well double its earnings per share (EPS) in the near future.
		Guthrie, he said, was now working to accelerate its total crude palm oil (CPO) production to one million tonnes annually from about 500,000 tonnes at present, with the Minamas plantations to contribute about two thirds of output.
		However, Guthrie which already has 11 mills in Indonesia, would have to invest quite considerably in an additional eight to 10 mills over the next four to five years to meet its refining needs.

		KUALA LUMPUR: Former group chief executive officer of Kumpulan Guthrie Berhad Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim on Tuesday filed a suit against Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB) and Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad pertaining to his claim for his right to purchase the remaining 135 million Kumpulan Guthrie shares.
		It was reported that the non-renewal of Khalid's contract was due to him not seeing eye to eye with some of the top echelon of PNB, of which he was the CEO before heading Guthrie.
		At the same time he was appointed CEO of Guthrie after stepping down asPNB CEO in what was seen as a "reward" for leading the so-called "dawn raid" -- lightning purchases of Guthrie Corporation shares at the opening of trading on the London stock market and thus wresting control of Guthrie from its British owners.

		There was an actual proposal from a local businessman last October to consolidate the state-owned plantation companies under Sime Darby, which is one of Malaysia's biggest multinationals and the largest of the seven by size.
		But for the merger to make sense, the management of the merged entity must be able to cut costs, most of which would be at the headquarters level, warns Lai.
