mm2 Asia wants its cinemas to be a hip place for movie goers

Executive chairman Melvin Ang is exploring opportunities.

MAINBOARD-listed mm2 Asia has a cinematic vision. The local movie producer bought Cathay Cineplexes' Singapore theatre chain last November and it doesn't plan to stop there.

While the group has been forced to reconfigure its cinema strategy after a deal to acquire Golden Village (GV), Singapore's leading cinema operator, got scuppered in August last year, it doesn't mean they won't try again.

Executive chairman Melvin Ang told The Business Times last month: "(Acquiring) GV is still possible. If you do an in-depth study of Orange Sky, maybe you'll see that we still have a chance."
