3huhu..why genting shares dropped?
maybe - no activity in casino due in respect to the founder passed away, investor lost their interest, and the best part, all 4digits number related to this event sold out at 4d magnum, 3+1 da ma chai and so on, hot number such as 9393, 9090, 1937, 3707 or any combination of number that related to Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong, a deep condolence to his family
thanks, syam
