A report that appeared overnight in the Straits Times (Reuters) informs us that Cedar Holdings, a unit of Temasek Holdings is selling 6.2% of its sometimes controversial stake in Shin Corp, the former company of the Shinawatra family. This is estimated to reduce its shareholding to 38%.

The sale of 200 million shares could be worth some US$261 million but the sale price is reported to be around 7.8% lower than the current share trading price.

Within Thailand this may also reduce criticism concerning foreign holdings in Thai Telecomms companies.
