On the 6th Dec 2023, packaging play CPMC Holdings (906 HK) announced a pre-conditional Offer from SASAC and the National Council for Social Security Fund of China (NCSSF). 
A decent premium (32.1%), presumed rubber-stamped regulatory approvals, and a 50% acceptance condition with 29.7% in the bag - this Offer looked done. Then ORG announced a possible competing proposal.
Nearly four months have elapsed and details on ORG's Offer remain unknown. SASAC/NCSSF chip away at reg approvals. Shares are down 2.6% from its recent peak. That makes sense.
