		SINGAPOREAN tycoon Khoo Teck Puat's investing maxim was simple but astute: "When no one wants it, that's the time to buy a few million."
		As investors yesterday digested news that Temasek had become StanChart's largest shareholder with an 11.55-per-cent stake, the market was rife with talk about whether the acquisition could some day bring the British bank together with Temasek-linked DBS Group Holdings, Singapore's top lender.
		The prospect is enticing not only for DBS but also for others, such as HSBC and Citigroup, who reportedly eyed the Khoo stake for years.

		SPHC, which runs properties under the Parkroyal, Centra and Travelodge banners, last traded in 1988 when Chicago's Pritzker family, which owns Hyatt Hotels & Resorts, paid A$540 million to Malaysian financier Tan Sri Khoo Teck Puat for the group, then known as Southern Pacific Hotels Corporation.
		Sources say the Pritzkers want to recoup the $540 million on any new sale but bidding has been slow because SPHC is to be sold as a mangement company, with most of its fully-owned hotel buildings to be retained by Hyatt.
