8. STRENGTHEN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN COMPANY AND SHAREHOLDERS
8.1 Shareholder Participation at Annual General Meeting (AGM)
The AGM which is the principal forum for shareholder dialogue, allows shareholders to review the Group’s
performance via the Company’s Annual Report and pose questions to the Board for clarification. The Notice
of AGM is circulated at least twenty-one (21) clear days before the date of the meeting to enable shareholders
sufficient time to go through the Annual Report.
To further promote participation of shareholders through proxy, the Article of Association of the Company
has been amended giving proxy the same rights as the shareholder to speak at the meeting. The Article of
Association of the Company further entitles a shareholder to vote in person, by corporate representative, by
proxy or by attorney. Essentially, a corporate representative, proxy or attorney shall be entitled to vote both
on a show of hands and on a poll as if they were a shareholder of the Company.
8.2 Encourage Poll Voting
The Chairman informs shareholders of their right to demand a poll vote at the commencement of each general
meeting. The resolution(s) put forth for shareholders’ approval at the general meeting would be voted on by a
show of hands if no poll is demanded.
8.3 Communication and Proactive Engagement
At the previous AGM, a total of 8 out of 9 Directors were present in person to engage directly with the shareholders.
The proceedings of the AGM included a Q&A session during which the Chairman invited shareholders to raise
questions pertaining to the Company’s accounts and other items for adoption at the meeting, before putting
each resolution to vote. The Directors, Management and external auditors were in attendance to respond
to the shareholders’ queries. The Chairman and the CEO also shared with the shareholders the Company’s
responses to questions submitted in advance of the AGM by the Minority Shareholder Watchdog Group.
