The first involves MYR300m (US$63.5m) under the group’s MYR5bn (US$1.1bn) medium-term notes programme, with a tenure of five years and a coupon rate of 4.92 per cent per annum, payable semi-annually. The second tranche consists of MYR100m (US$21.2m) from the company’s MYR3bn (US$635m) medium-term notes programme, with a 14-year tenure and a 5.28 per cent coupon rate, also payable semi-annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the first quarter of the year, Genting Malaysia<\/a>\u00a0posted net profit of MYR36.7m (US$7.8m), which compares to\u00a0a net loss of\u00a0MYR45.4m (US$9.65m) a year earlier<\/a>.
