This company have to looking for external consultant to "look see" how to increase the production, lower down the cost of sales and company expenses compare with other plantation counter. Jtiasa should "close shop" the timber division since it never never make any profit for so many years and use the money (from timber division) invest in Solar since it got big size of land.

What a "Mo Lan Yong" counter. Making Profit but Mr. Market don't want to see, may be Jtiasa look very ugly and body not nice. Have to do some face & body (company internal operation) operation so that it look more attractive. The management should give high dividend since it Cash Rich now. Hahaha.

Jaya Tiasa – tough to be profitable when firing on one cylinder

Jaya Tiasa has undergone a significant transformation since its inception as a timber company in the 1980s. The diversification into oil palm has shifted the Group's primary revenue source.

But without this shift, the company would be in trouble today. Currently, the oil palm operation is the main profit driver. The timber segment faces declining production volumes due to policy shifts toward sustainable practices. The Group's reliance on oil palm highlights the critical need for a turnaround in the timber operations.

Looking ahead, the focus must be on improving operational efficiencies. This hinges on the readiness of the forest plantations to contribute to log supply. While the company has 2 business segments, only one is contributing to its bottom line. It is tough to be profitable when running one one cylinder with a 2 cylinder engine.
