Hi Zhi Ming,
 
MGO means that the main owner have to offer to buy the shares once they hit a certain trigger point even if they do not have the intention to delist it. In this case, the owner do not have the intention that why they mentioned that they want the company to stay listed. Hence, it will also signal the shareholder not to sell the share if they still want to hold on to the company.
