No end to hairy fights at Datapulse

HAIRSPRAY should be a cutesy musical about a pleasantly plump Baltimore teenager coming of age in the 1960s - not at the heart of a feud at a mainboard-listed disk drive maker.

But a row has been brewing at Datapulse Technology since last November, when co-founder Ng Cheow Chye sold his stake to the unrelated Ng Siew Hong at a premium.

Longtime directors stepped down. A new board was appointed, including two men later revealed to be acquaintances of Ms Ng Siew Hong.
