Oriental Bank PLC
[edit]Media Squabble with Public Bank Group
[edit]After Phan's resignation with the Public Bank Group, he was given a notice period to vacate his position before establishing Oriental Bank PLC with then partners - G Capital Berhad, a public listed company from Malaysia and E S Packaging from Cambodia. However, an article published by The Edge (Malaysia)[9] might have caused some tension between Phan and the management of the Public Bank Group, as the latter quickly issued a statement to deny any involvement in the venture The Edge (Malaysia).[10][11][12] Following the media statement released by Public Bank, the share prices of G Capital Berhad fell.[13]
