[edit] NPOV Comments

The article's tone contains a level of conjecture and information not based entirely on facts. Examples include:

• "Whilst this will make it one of the global leaders in palm oil origination" - this is more a forecast than a fact.
• Same goes for "Pulling from a combined experience of 400 years of three great legacies, Sime Darby is poised with the potential for more in the future". This statement is also somewhat judgemental.

Overall, the articles style, while informative, is more narrative than factual.

I have attempted to cut out all the colourful narrative so that the article is now factual. Note that the article had (incorrectly) stated that Harrision and Crossfield had changed its name to Golden Hope Plantations Berhad. The truth is that Harrison and Crossfield sold the plantations to Malaysian concerns and then renamed itself Elementis. Dormskirk (talk) 20:46, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
