    KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 6): KUMPULAN EUROPLUS BHD [] saw 6.0 million of its shares transacted in an off-market deal at an average price of RM1.11 on Friday.

    Stock market data showed the shares, which were crossed at RM1.11 each, were 9.7% below its regular market trade of RM1.23.

    The 6.0 million shares accounted for just 1.15% of the paid-up of 520.99 million shares.
So 6 Million shares were transacted in an off-market deal at an average price of RM1.11.

What was interesting was this deal was done 20 days before it was announced that KEuro won that amazing 7 Billion Highway Project!!!

Here's a news clip of the project award on 26th Jan 2012.

Well, I am just curious.... who is the buyer of these 6 million shares at an average price of rm1.11?

Keuro last traded at 1.31.
