Acquisition Details
Zetrix AI Bhd has entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire a 50% stake in MYEG Ventures Inc for RM130 million, according to a bourse filing. The deal, signed on Sept 1 with Next Lion Ltd, involves the acquisition of 15.25 million ordinary shares in MYEG Ventures, a Philippine-based information technology services provider. The payment will be settled through a combination of cash and the issuance of up to 360.57 million new ordinary shares in Zetrix AI.

Impact on MYEG Philippines
MYEG Ventures holds a 60% stake in MYEG Philippines Inc. Upon completion of the acquisition, MYEG Philippines will become a subsidiary of Zetrix AI. Zetrix AI said the purchase was driven by its strategic expansion plans in the Philippines, with the group aiming to strengthen its presence in the market, broaden its business operations and customer base, and support long-term growth plans.
The group said the purchase took into consideration the potential market size in the Philippines for new services related to its blockchain and AI platform, such as ZTrade, Digital Identity Verifier, and Avatar AI. Zetrix AI also highlighted economic potential from an agreement between MYEG Philippines, its joint venture with Mimos Bhd, and the Philippine government to implement public blockchain infrastructure based on the Zetrix protocol with the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT).

AI-extracted; can misattribute a claim — see Methodology.
Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status is Contested when two claims on this page negate each other; otherwise it counts the distinct outlets we found asserting that specific claim — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
