Sona Petroleum: a clear vote

It does not often happen that a proposal by the management of a Bursa listed company gets voted against by 77.4% of the votes, but that is what happened to Sona Petroleum:

With time running out, it seems extremely unlikely that Sona can propose an acquisition which will be approved by the shareholders.

"Yield seekers" seem to be a threat to the promoters of SPACs, it is therefore the duty off the management of these vehicles to:

• Propose a really good deal
• Communicate this clearly to the shareholders

Not an easy task.

With the promoters looking (again?) at a possible large loss of money, SPACs will most likely lose their shine.
