Surandy,

After a second browse of TIM’s announcement, I found that there is no indication that the takeover/merge talk is continuing. So, as you said, the chance for such a thing to eventuate is indeed slim.

What this MIS sector is now facing in the next half year or so, I reckon, is the Govt's attempts to "weed out" "the bad operators" by various measures, as the Dutton Interview has clearly indicated. Hard to think any "consolidation" would happen to this sector before cutting down to size.
