The Pirates of Bursa Malaysia : Was 1 Doc International a Patsy IPO?

patsy is an informal  term for a person or company who is easily, manipulated, or used as a scapegoat to take the blame for someone else's mistake 

IT increasingly looks like Bursa Malaysia and the Securities Commision, may have allowed the 1 Doc International  Bhd's Bumiputra book building exercise for its IPO shares to proceed at the MITI level, knowing that the share sale would fail miserably. 

MITI between May 12 and May 20,  had opened the offers for the I Doc International  Bhd shares  but the response from Bumiputra investors  were extremely  weak.

THOSE investors were right to give  I Doc International Bhd, the cold shoulder, considering that two of its major medical doctor shareholders namely READ : Ong Hong Keat and Chin Boon Keat were facing the Malaysia Medical Council disciplinary board for possible infringement, in the following month of June.

WAS 1 Doc International  Bhd pushed over the cliff,  so that the SC and Bursa Malaysia, can make it look like they were delivering their promise of Big IPOs this year, especially at the main board level?
