Mall owners are sick of Nakumatt. They want to move on, but Nakumatt is refusing to go despite not paying rent.

Tenants of malls are also getting impatient as Nakumatt is affecting footfall.

The end is nigh.

The Goodwill in this company is really really depreciating. Even investors will be afraid to inject capital....the shelves are so empty and workers not motivated at all.

Why would Asian community want to save this giant? The owners are not exactly sweating. They have siphoned off a cool 25 billion and are now pretending to be in financial distress. I don't think they care what way Nakumatt goes. Only the suppliers and landlords are screwed. How do you think a business this big grows without any investment is assets? This was intentional. My heart goes out to the people who trusted them.
