Back in early March this year, it was revealed that Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC), which is owned by PPB Group Bhd, has acquired the majority of cinema assets from the operators of the MBO chain of cinemas. According to the report by TheEdge Markets, the acquisition comes amid the challenging environment for the cinema industry, which has been hit hard by the MCO. MBO currently has a total of 27 cineplexes across 10 states.

As MBO Cinemas admin has commented on its post, this may be a hint that the page won’t totally disappear but rather with a new management team behind it. Will it be one of the admins from GSC? We will have to wait to find out for more updates!
