"Melaka - The Historical City of Malaysia" Top 5 Page for this destination Melaka by mansionion
Melaka Travel Guide: 1,848 reviews and 4,887 photos
Both my parents hail from Melaka (though mom was born in Singapore) and currently based there, enjoying their golden years. So its a natural thing for me to make regular trips to Melaka; returning to my roots.
I spend most of my childhood and adolescence days in Melaka, witnessing the transformation of Melaka from once a sleepy hollow to its present state. Even Melaka is fast developing, its still a laidback place less hectic than KL where I am base now.
Melaka will always has a special place in my heart. A place where I plan to spend my retirement age, just like my parents.
Founded by a renegade Sumatran Prince in 1400, Melaka got its name from the Melaka tree. From then on trading start to flourish in Melaka due to its ideal location in the spice route between China and India.
By the mid 1400s, Melaka was an important trading port in the east and was an empire by itself covering the whole Peninsular Malaysia and most part of Sumatra.
Melaka's fame and wealth later became the target of the expansionist Europeans. The Portuegese attacked Melaka in 1511 and ruled the state for 130 years before they were defeated by the Dutch in 1641. The Dutch ruled Melaka for almost 200 years, leaving behind a legacy in the form of fine archituctures that are standing still to these days.
The Dutch later handed over Melaka to the British in exchange for Sumatra in 1818 and hence Melaka was ruled by the East Indian Company from then on. The Japanese also ruled Melaka briefly during the World War 2 before they were defeated.
With the spread of the anti-colonialism post WW2 and movement towards independance and self governace, Melaka as part of the Federation of the Malay States was released from the British rule and declared an independance and sovereign state on 31 August 1957.
Gone are its hey days, the State of Melaka now covers an area of just 658 square kilometers on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia facing the Strait of Melaka and form part of Malaysia with the city of Melaka as its state capital.
Located about 147 kilometers from Kuala Lumpur and 245 kilometers from Singpore, Melaka is serviced by a very good network of roads leading to all the historical sites and places of interest. It is reachable via the North-South Highway that runs through the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia.
Melaka today is a fast developing state and thanks to its historical legacy, tourism is a major contribution to the state's development. As Melaka is the place where it all began (the story of Malaysia begin with Melaka), a visit to Melaka is a must for all who come to Malaysia.
- Pros:A historical city with its own charm and character
- Cons:A bit lack of planned development (well what U expect from a 500 years old city?)
- In a nutshell:A must visit for all who come to Malaysia.

The overall goal of this K07 is to build a strong research and research training Pharmaceutical Outcomes Research in Aging (PORA on the strong foundation of resources at UPITT. The PORA specific aims are to: 1) create an educational series that builds a solid foundation of knowledge and skills in geriatric pharmaceutical outcomes research;2) build a cadre of well trained investigators in the field;and 3) provide experiential learning and support for data management and analysis of pharmaceutical data. In support of aim one, we will develop and provide: 1) a new 9 credit Area of Concentration in Geriatric Pharmaceutical Outcomes Research as part of the Clinical and Translational Science Institute's (CTSI) certificate, masters and PhD graduate programs;2) a credit bearing monthly geriatric pharmaceutical outcomes research seminar, 3) an annual Visiting Professorship;and 4) an annual pre-meeting workshop on Geriatric Pharmaceutical Outcomes Research at the annual Gerontological Society of America meeting. In support of aim two, I have assembled a group of senior and junior faculty mentors. Trainees will be recruited at multiple levels (junior faculty, post doctoral fellows, residents, and pre-doctoral student trainees), come from multiple disciplines including pharmacy, medicine, epidemiology, health services research and other fields and be supported through existing funding from our affiliated health care systems (UPMC and VA), the CTSI, Pepper Center and our NIA training grants. We will annually also offer a small pilot award. In support of aim three, a senior biostatistician faculty member will provide study design and statistical support for the above- mentioned trainees. An Executive Committee consisting of the PI, the biostatistician and the PI of the NIA- funded Pepper Center and T32 and T35 programs will provide administrative and intellectual leadership. The PORA will be overseen by a multidisciplinary Internal Advisory Committee to assure that the PORA is well integrated with and leverages UPITT resources including the CTSI. The candidate is a leader in the field of geriatric pharmacotherapy research and a committed teacher and mentor to beginning investigators. The long term goal of this K07 proposal is to secure a T32 and/or center/program grant to train future researchers to conduct important research to enhance the health of older adults by improving the safety and use of medications. There is strong institutional support for the PORA to assure its short and long term success.
Older patients represent a rapidly increasing segment of the population that commonly experiences medication-related problems. New investigators and additional multidisciplinary pharmaceutical outcomes research are needed to detect, better understand, prevent or reduce, medication-related problems in older adults.

A stroll through downtown Sebastopol, a town formerly known more for Gravenstein apples than for grapes, but these days a burgeoning wine hub, reveals glimpses of the distant and recent past and perhaps the future, too. Before entering the district of browsable, if mostly modest, shops, you may notice a sign declaring Sebastopol a "Nuclear Free Zone." Many hippies settled here in the 1960s and 1970s and, as the old Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young song goes, they taught their children well—the town remains steadfastly, if not entirely, countercultural.
Another strain of nostalgia runs even deeper, though, as evidenced by the popularity of the remarkably well-preserved Foster's Freeze stand (banana split, anyone?). Those hankering for a 1960s flashback can truck on over to the Grateful Bagel, complete with Grateful Dead logo.
Sebastopol has always had really good, if somewhat low-profile, wineries, among them Iron Horse, Lynmar Estate, and Merry Edwards. With the opening of a cluster of artisanal food and wine vendors at the Barlow, on the site of a former apple-processing plant, the town may be poised for a Healdsburg-style transformation. Then again, maybe not. Stay tuned.

|Kevin Garnett and Celtics respond to Doc Rivers and his bitter 'beer face'
|03.10.12 at 10:49 am ET
Everyone associated with the Celtics – from players and coaches to support staff – was embarrassed by Wednesday's 32-point loss to the Sixers Wednesday night.
"That didn't sit well with anybody," Kevin Garnett said after Friday's 104-86 redemption at the hands of the Blazers. "Tough schedule. Philly, they kicked our ass, plain and simple. This was about getting on the right track, taking care of home, and more importantly, creating that momentum going on this long road trip."
That's why no one was particularly surprised to see Doc Rivers with a special edge Friday morning during the team's shootaround.
"Doc comes in, and you can tell how he's looking, like he's had no sleep and his hair standing on top of his head and he has the beer face," Garnett said. "What happened in Philly wasn't us but it happens and we accept it.
"[Friday] was a defensive mindset all the way through. A team we're going to see only once, it was important for us to start the game with a force. Paul kept saying in the huddle, before we went out [to start the game] that it was important that we get this game to start the road trip. I've always said for the momentum, you've got to get games like this. This is kind of like playing on the road because we are going to be away from home for a while so this game was very important."
As for this eight-game haul, a haul that began early Saturday morning with a cross-country flight, and will include a walk-through when the team lands in LA, Garnett said it's important not to be overwhelmed.
"One game at a time," he began. "When you look at it, it's actually kind of quite scary, just because of the lack of rest, the back-to-backs, the travel. But when you take it a game at a time… it's still what it is, actually.
"I was going to dress that up like it was something else. Nah, it's all messed up, it's all messed up. It is. I want to use another word but I won't. It's difficult but we're going to take it a game at a time. This is the longest I can remember."
Certainly the longest in his head coach's career as Rivers said he can never remember a trip like the one the Celtics are about to embark on.
'In my career, I've been in the league for 26 years," Rivers said, when asked if it's the longest one in several years. "It's a long road trip but I do think there's rest in it. The first two games are tough because of the long flight, you play and then you play the next day. But then after that, there's days off in between. I think the other one is the last, the Denver game before we go back East, that's a hard game. Whenever you play Denver on a back-to-back, that's a hard game because there's no oxygen.'
The Celtics hope they aren't grasping for too much air by the time they return home on March 25 to battle the Wizards.
|Report: Josh Smith wants out of Atlanta
|03.09.12 at 12:18 am ET
Hawks forward Josh Smith is having one of his best seasons, averaging 17.1 points and 9.8 rebounds per game for a team that has stayed in the thick of the playoff chase without Al Horford. But the 26-year-old Smith has had his problems in Atlanta, and Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Smith would like to be traded before the March 15 deadline.
Cunningham writes:
By the end of last season Smith wanted out of Atlanta because he believed he was singled out for unfair criticism by coaches and media. Those concerns have died down for the most part this season but now Smith believes he needs a fresh start with a franchise where he can better reach his potential on and off the court, according to one of the people with knowledge of Smith's thinking.
The Hawks have been fielding phone calls on Smith, with the Warriors mentioned as one possibility. The Celtics have been very loosely tied to the forward, but team officials shot down a report last week involving Kevin Garnett.
Smith, who played his high school ball at Oak Hill Academy in Virginia with Rajon Rondo, remains friends with the All-Star guard and he has one year left after this season on a contract that pays him $13 million.
|Rajon Rondo makes his point and joins Wilt Chamberlain and Magic Johnson in rare air
|03.04.12 at 7:41 pm ET
It's almost as if Rajon Rondo wanted to make one final grand gesture to Danny Ainge that he'd be making a big mistake by trading him.
Rondo went out Sunday and posted the most impressive triple double in the NBA since Wilt Chamberlain in 1968, scoring 18 points, dishing out 20 assists and hauling down 17 rebounds in Boston's 115-111 overtime win over the Knicks at TD Garden.
Chamberlain was the last player in the NBA to match all of those numbers when he had 22 points, 25 rebounds and 21 assists in a 131-121 Philly win over the Pistons on Feb. 2, 1968. Why is that comparison so significant?
Many NBA historians recall that as the best statistical game in league history, the only double triple-double ever recorded. Rondo was just two points and three rebounds shy of joining Chamberlain as the second ever with 20 in three different categories.
All the while the numbers were piling up, Rondo said he had no idea.
'No, I didn't, honestly," Rondo said. "Just tried to make some great play calling and just worked out that my numbers showed up like they did.'
One thing Rondo has been more than aware of lately are the trade rumors involving his name that don't show any indication of quieting. If anything, Sunday's game might just perk up the eyes and ears of a GM or two.
"[Rondo] was more than above average," Kevin Garnett said afterward. "Trade talks are a really, really big motivator for him."
Another hall of fame name was thrown around after the game Rondo had. Magic Johnson was the last NBA player with at least 17 points, 17 rebounds and 17 assists in a game before Sunday. Johnson had 24 points, 17 rebounds and 17 assists on April 18, 1989.
'I'm just playing," Rondo said. "The biggest thing is we got the win. You know, [Paul Pierce] made that shot to send us into overtime, and that was big for us. You know, if you get those type of numbers and you lose, it's kind of irrelevant.'
Of all the great numbers he had, the 47 minutes and 47 seconds of playing time might have been the most impressive of all.

|Report: Celtics-Hawks talks were 'purely exploratory'
|03.03.12 at 1:12 pm ET
Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports (via twitter) said that while the Hawks and Celtics had discussed the possibility of a deal, such conversations remained preliminary.
Tweeted Wojnarowski: Atlanta did express an interest to Boston about Ray Allen or Kevin Garnett, but purely exploratory conversations, sources said.
Wojnarowski's report comes one day after another rumor suggested that the Celtics were interested in acquiring forward Josh Smith from the Hawks while dangling Kevin Garnett.
|Mickael Pietrus guarantees Celtics championship
|03.02.12 at 11:20 pm ET
Even after their third straight victory, a 107-94 win over the visiting Nets, the Celtics (18-17) are ranked just seventh in the Eastern Conference and face a first-round playoff matchup against the Bulls if the standings remain the same. But that didn't stop Mickael Pietrus from guaranteeing the franchise's 18th NBA championship.
"I know that you guys say we're older and all that stuff," said Pietrus, pointing his finger at each camera surrounding his locker. "We're going to win the championship, Ok?"
It's difficult to tell just how serious the always playful Pietrus is when he makes that claim, as he's made similar remarks at various times since first suiting up in Boston on Jan. 11.
Still, even in jest, there is an important nugget in Pietrus' postgame vow: The Celtics are becoming a formidable team once again thanks to a return to Ubuntu of sorts. And that's a welcome notion to anybody who watched this Celtics group suffer through a 1-7 stretch before the All-Star Game.
|Fast Break: Rondo, headband of brothers take down Nets
|at 9:57 pm ET
Rajon Rondo has rarely worn a headband since NBA commissioner David Stern issued a rule against wearing the logo upside down (a slight to Lakers legend Jerry West) at the start of last season, but the Celtics point guard sported his good luck charm backwards against the Nets in a 107-94 win over the Nets.
Perhaps Rondo needed a change of scenery after all the recent talk of him maybe getting … well, a change of scenery before the March 15 trade deadline (a notion C's president Danny Ainge denied on Thursday). Whatever the case, the three-time All-Star floor general submitted his second straight sublime performance, amassing 14 points, 13 assists, five steals and two rebounds just two nights after recording his third triple-double of the season.
Likewise, Kevin Garnett (20 points, 10 rebounds) — one of the few Celtics regulars sans headband — continued his productive stretch, dropping at least 20 points and 10 rebounds in two straight games for the first time in exactly one year. Paul Pierce (27 points) led five C's scorers in double figures.
The win marked the third straight for the Celtics (18-17), who had dropped seven of eight previously. Brook Lopez led the Nets with 28 points.
Meet the press: As the Celtics outscored the Nets 29-20 in each of the first two quarters, they showed a different look — albeit one most middle school teams run on a regular basis. Still, the C's 2-1-2 and 2-2-1 fullcourt presses confused New Jersey to no end, resulting in five first-half Rondo steals and a 14-0 advantage in fast break points by the break.
Seeing Green: There's nothing like a little Gerald Green defense to help Pierce bust out of his recent offensive struggles (39.5 FG% in February). The captain abused the former Celtics first-round draft pick — and any other Nets wing who guarded him — in the early going, finishing the first quarter with nine points on 4-of-7 shooting (1-2 3P) and four assists. When Pierce plays well, generally so do the Celtics, and Friday night was no different.
Ball protection: The Celtics committed just two turnovers in the first half. Repeat: Two, leading to zero Nets points. Considering his team entered the game averaging 15.6 turnovers (good for 23rd in the NBA), coach Doc Rivers had to be pleased his team finally cleaned up an issue he's had to address after most of its 17 losses.
The New York Daily News threw out the suggestion that the Celtics would be interested in Atlanta's Josh Smith "and other young studs," while using the Big Three of Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce as bait.
"With the Big Three's window now shut, Ainge is trying to land Atlanta's Josh Smith and other young studs, while offering up Kevin Garnett. Paul Pierce and Ray Allen can also be had, for young players and draft picks. Rajon Rondo might be leaving, too, with the Lakers and Utah seen as possible destinations."
The interesting part of this rumor is the suggestion of Garnett, which is the first time his name has been linked in any trade rumor since he's come to Boston. Garnett is in the last year of a contract that pays him $21 million and Smith has another year left after this one at $13 million, so that wouldn't work straight-up. The Hawks have other short contracts like Kirk Hinrich, who is in the last year of a deal that pays him $8 million.
Smith was high school teammates with Rajon Rondo at Oak Hill Academy and the two have remained close. He's still just 26 years old and many felt that he deserved a spot on the All-Star team. He'd be the kind of player the Celtics would be looking to acquire if they move forward with Rondo.

Matthew Greenburgh, the man dubbed Fred Goodwin's banker after advising on a string of deals for the former Royal Bank of Scotland chief executive, has today quit Bank of America Merrill Lynch
It is thought that 48-year-old Mr Greenburgh, who is believed to have earned as much as £11 million for his part in RBS's £50 billion acquisition of Dutch bank ABN Amro, told colleagues this morning that he would be retiring.
Mr Greenburgh recently played a key role in the £21 billion Lloyds Bank rights recapitalisation process which included a £13.5 billion rights issue.
His exit leaves the bank without a head of its key financial institutions group.
Mr Greenburgh confirmed this evening that he was stepping down from the firm within the next few weeks.

* either searching for someone, or seeking someone. searching someone is checking them for drugs, weapons etc at airports, border controls, parties, and so on.
* more than three million
* verstehen = understand instead of to get along with.
* but EVERYTHING hurts instead of all
it should be "three million" not "three millions"
I would say "there's someone who understands you" rather than "there is someone who will get along with you" (<--long and awkward phrase)
I would also suggest "Your friends tell you it'll pass" instead of "Your friends say to you that it will come to an end"
"but it's not that simple" instead of "but it won't as easily"
"searched all over," not "searched for all over"
For the first two lines I would try to stick to the lyrical feeling of the original, with something like: "Heart finished, bank account empty, the last money, apartment door" – this maintains more of the rhythmic drive of the German.

Mindy McCready, who made headlines this month for taking her son Zander from her mother's home and going on the run with him, is speaking out after the ordeal to "20/20" Friday night (Dec. 9). But "Good Morning America" has a sneak peek of the interview.
McCready says, "The thing about it is no one knows my story … I stopped singing, I stopped socializing, I stopped living," of her life in recent years, which included drug abuse, domestic violence and rehab.
When she went on the run with Zander, her lawyer told her to bring him back right away and she says, "I said to him, 'Do you realize, do you have any idea, what it is like to have one
minute with him, after having four and a half years without him, not
being able to have one second holding, smelling him and touching him.
I'm not gonna give up one minute.'"
She also alleges that her mother, Gayle Inge, was an abusive guardian for Zander and also a practitioner of a bizarre religion.
"Zander was being beaten with a wooden spoon. They are scars on Zander's back, there are scars on his bottom and his legs, from the spoon," says McCready. "My mother believes that she is a prophet sent from God. They see dead people in their home all the time. Spirits, demons, ghosts. They are encouraging my son to go around with them to churches and stand up on stage and scream gibberish."
Gayle tells ABC News in response, "I have been Zander's guardian for four and a half years. There has been all kinds of scrutiny. He has never been abused in our care."
"I believe everybody makes mistakes, everybody has to grow up," McCready finishes. "I understand why I've made the bad choices I've made and how not to make them in the future. Zander saved my life. Every single time I've wanted to let go and just give in, I remember what he did for me. He saved my life."
The entire interview airs Friday night on "20/20."

In America, internal investigations into suspicions and allegations of employee misconduct follow an increasingly well-defined approach. But exporting US investigatory best practices raises unexpected hurdles of foreign workplace laws.
Internal investigations in the US have become high-profile and big business. Corporate investigations can be hugely expensive: One American personal care products company disclosed in an SEC filing that it had spent US$247.3 million on a single investigation. And these investigations can be long and drawn-out: By the time ex-FBI director Louis Freeh wrapped up his thorough internal investigation into child rape allegations at Penn State University, his chief targets were either dead or in prison — Penn State launched its investigation after the scandal broke in late 2011; Joe Paterno died in January 2012; a Pennsylvania jury convicted Jerry Sandusky on 45 counts of child molesting in June; the investigation wrapped up that July.
The highest-profile internal investigations tend to be complex, drawn-out and expensive. Stakes are high when an allegation involves millions of dollars and serious charges—bribery, sabotage, embezzlement, tax fraud, insider trading, antitrust collusion, workplace violence, environmental crime, audit/accounting fraud, conflict of interests. That said, huge internal investigations are the exception. Most internal investigations tend to be fairly streamlined, inexpensive and fast. Investigations into, for example, run-of-the-mill claims of petty theft, bullying, harassment, workplace accidents and expense-account fraud often get wrapped up quickly and inexpensively. But in this era of Sarbanes-Oxley, Dodd-Frank and close scrutiny into corporate compliance and ethics, an internal investigation, be it slow and expensive or fast and streamlined, needs to get done right. Wrongdoers need to get punished.

Companies are aware of AACSB's rigorous accreditation process, and many choose to only hire candidates who have attended a business program that has been accredited by the AACSB.
Choosing a Reputable Online MBA Program
The MBA is an excellent degree for professionals to have, whether you're an engineer moving into a supervisory role or an entrepreneurially-minded college grad looking to start your own business. While researching the top MBA programs, remember to keep your career goals, learning style, and work-life balance in mind, in order to pick the best option for you.
In general, the following criteria can help you evaluate online MBA programs you are considering:
- Costs and Financial Aid: MBA programs can vary greatly in price. Shop around and make sure that you consider applicable fees and enrollment costs, as well as tuition.
- Course Structure and Delivery: Part time or full time? Asynchronous or synchronous online classes? Traditional semesters or accelerated classes? All options are available online, but only you can decide which one suits your life and learning style.
- Graduate Placement: If it is not available on the school's website, ask the admissions office for information about graduate job placement. Inquire about the percentage of students who were able to find work in their chosen field within three to six months after they graduated.
- Institutional and Programmatic Accreditation: It is important to choose an accredited MBA. To get accredited, a school or program is evaluated by an impartial accrediting organization. Schools that achieve accreditation have met important quality standards. Institutional accreditation applies to an entire college, while programmatic accreditation applies to individual programs. Anyone considering an MBA degree should focus on schools programatically accredited by the AACSB, which is the premier accrediting agency for business degrees.

Igbos belonging to APC in the South East Zone yesterday declared that rescue of two Chibok girls has permanently buried claims by former president Goodluck Jonathan and his aides who claimed the Chibok abduction was a scam.
The statement was made by The Media and Publicity Director of APC, South-East zone, Osita Okechukwu. According to Osita, "We salute the gallant Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG), the Nigeria armed forces, the JTF and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria, for their fortitude, resilience and perseverance.
Read Also: Release Dasuki, Kanu or we will make Nigeria ungovernable for you- Niger Delta Militants.
"If President Buhari had remained indifferent like the former president, the penetration of Sambisa forest couldn't have been possible.
"Indeed the rescue of Amina Ali has put to shame people like the former First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan and Governor of Ekiti, Ayo Fayose, who thought the abduction of the girls was a scam."
"Parents of the girls yet to be rescued should bear in mind that with God nothing is impossible. Their hope should not wane, as we have every hope that more girls will be rescued."
In reaction to insinuations that the abduction was staged, the chairman of Chibok community in Abuja, Mr. Tsambido Hosea, said that "We condemn, in strong terms, the calling of Mohammad Hayatu as Boko Haram husband of our daughter. Upon confirmation by the Nigerian Military, he should be referred to as a Boko Haram sexual exploiter.
"Amina had no husband and who ever that was rescued with her should not be referred to as her husband for any reason. They should be treated separately until Amina is fully rehabilitated. Even if he is also abducted and forced to marry her, he should not be referred to in any way as her husband, because there was never consent in getting her with a baby.

"He should be treated based on what investigations will reveal not to conclude from start that he was also abducted," Hosea said.

Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd – buy it now and don't ever let go

That is, he strives to find a quality company trading at a reasonable price and hold onto it through the good times and the bad, focusing on the belief that the business will be much bigger in 5, 10 or even 100 years? time, regardless of any temporary potholes it may run into.

Warren Buffett, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK.A, NYSE: BRK.B) and arguably the most successful investor of all time, has time and time again stated that his favourite holding period for a company is "forever". That is, he strives to find a quality company trading at a reasonable price and hold onto it through the good times and the bad, focusing on the belief that the business will be much bigger in 5, 10 or even 100 years' time, regardless of any temporary potholes it may run into.
He once described beverage behemoth, The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO), as one of these 'forever' brands. In fact, since buying his first stake in the company in 1988, he has never sold a single share and says he never will. He said, "I'm the kind of guy who likes to bet on sure things… I like wonderful brands. If you take care of a great brand, its forever." He also added: "No business has ever failed with happy customers".
The Coca-Cola Company is a parent of Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd (ASX: CCL) ("CCA"), which bottles and distributes the corporation's products throughout Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Samoa. Unfortunately, CCA hasn't performed too well over the last year with shares down almost 40% since last May.
Of course, shareholders have every reason to be upset with the recent performance. Profits have been right down due to pricing pressures from competitors and supermarket giants Woolworths Limited (ASX: WOW) and Coles, owned by Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES). The high Australian dollar has also heavily impacted its SPC Ardmona cannery business. The most recent drop in share price came after new CEO Alison Watkins warned that profit would once again be down for the first half of operations.
Although its recent performance has been dissatisfying (and its share price plummet has been largely justified), investors should be seeing this as one of the temporary potholes in a quality company's long and successful history.
The problems the business is facing appear to be short-term in nature
First of all, the pricing war with rival, Schweppes, cannot continue forever. Schweppes has aggressively reduced its prices to gain market share and improve volumes, but its lower prices are also impacting on its own margins. They will soon be forced to increase prices which will lessen the pressure on Coca-Cola Amatil.
Secondly, although new business risks are always introduced with new management, a new CEO can also bring about much-needed changes. Alison Watkins, the former boss of Graincorp Ltd (ASX: GNC), took over the position of CEO last month and has undertaken a strategic review which will explore ways to reduce costs and improve productivity. Some analysts suggest costs could be reduced by up to $100 million which would greatly improve profitability.
Thirdly, investors have been concerned about the company's prospects in Indonesia. The region has long been considered as a huge opportunity for growth for the company, and while volumes in the area have been improving, they have been offset by the depreciation of the Indonesian Rupiah as well as increasing wages. However, the region still poses an incredible opportunity for the company, particularly given its enormous population.
Foolish Bottom Line
The stock is currently trading at a level it has not traded at since 2009. There are certainly concerns that need to be addressed by the business, but its low price makes now the perfect opportunity to take advantage of a temporary dip in investor confidence. Further, the investment prospect is made so much more appealing by its stellar 5.4% dividend yield.

Coke-snorting in high society; a married woman trailing round the latest in a string of toy-boy lovers; thinly veiled homosexuality; a mother-son relationship so intense that it verges on incest – such things didn't occur in 1924, on the stage at any rate, and their appearance in Noel Coward's early play The Vortex caused a sensation. In impact and shock value, it was the precursor of Look Back in Anger, Saved, and Blasted.
Coward himself played Nicky Lancaster, an aspiring pianist who returns from a year of louche living in Paris with a fiancée and a coke habit. He's appalled to discover that his mother Florence, a glamorous socialite, is struggling to cling to her youth with an affair with a dim but dishy Guards officer half her age.
To dissuade the censor from banning the piece, Coward argued that The Vortex was "little more than a moral tract". This was disingenuous; there's much more to it than that. But it's true to say that brittle smart-set wit goes hand in limp-wristed hand with middle-class censoriousness.
It begins as a comedy of manners and stealthily darkens, climaxing with an Oedipal showdown between Nicky and Florence that evokes both the closet scene in Hamlet and the gutting conclusion of Ghosts.
There isn't, alas, enough nervous electricity in Peter Hall's underpowered revival at the Apollo. Instead of conveying a restless, neurotic temperament, Dan Stevens's initially bland Nicky looks to be destined for the diplomatic service. Despite the various hints that the character is gay, there's nothing here to justify the toy boy's dismissive description of him as "up in the air – effeminate". It's a slow-burn performance, though, and it comes into its own in the final clash with his vain, insecure mother. Her fight against the encroachments of age grows ever more desperate and hysterical in Felicity Kendal's powerful portrayal.
Barry Stanton is too hairy and heterosexual to convince as the suave old bitchy queen, Pawnie. But elsewhere there is strong support. Cressida Trew is spot on as the sharp, lucid fiancée who realises (with honest regret) that she's wandered into the wrong camp. Best of all is Phoebe Nicholls as Florence's acerbically truth-telling chum, Helen.
