    Pursuant to Section 8.26 of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, the final single tier dividend, if approved, shall be paid not later than three (3) months from the date of the shareholders' approval.
  3. Ordinary Resolutions 2 & 3 - Re-election of Directors
    The Group Nomination & Remuneration Committee ("GNRC") had considered the performance and contribution of each of the retiring Director and have also assessed the independence of the Independent Non-Executive Directors seeking re-election.
    Based on the results of the Board Effectiveness Evaluation conducted, the performance of each of the retiring Director was found to be satisfactory. In addition, each of the retiring Director has also provided his/her annual declaration/ confirmation on his/her fitness and propriety as well as independence. The retiring Directors have also fulfilled the independence criteria set out in the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad and other independence criteria applied by the Company.
