We are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to determine the nature and extent of relationship that may exist between the Company and its Relevant Subsidiary Companies and the Special Purpose Vehicle ("SPV") by virtue of the said transactions and the debt restructuring exercises. Consequently, we were unable to determine whether the Company had control over the SPV; and the completeness of the comparative disclosures relating to the related party transactions between the Group and the SPV.

We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further
