April 2 (Reuters) - The following bids, mergers,
acquisitions and disposals were reported by 0930 GMT on Tuesday:
** Australian shipbuilder Austal said it had rejected an
A$1.02 billion ($662 million) takeover offer from South Korea's
Hanwha Ocean as it was unlikely to be approved by Australian and
U.S. regulators due to the sensitivity of its operations.
** Pakistan is putting on the block a stake ranging from 51%
to 100% of loss-making national carrier Pakistan International
Airlines, the privatisation panel said on Tuesday, as
part of reforms urged by the IMF.
** Australia's APM Human Services ( APMHF ) is in talks with

after private equity firm CVC Asia Pacific failed to go ahead
with its A$1.83 billion ($1.19 billion) takeover offer.
** Funds related to activist shareholder Yoshiaki Murakami
jointly own a 5.11% stake in Japanese chip materials maker JSR
