Electronic communication
Broader shareholder communication also takes place via
our corporate website at www.gamuda.com.my as well
as through the Annual Report, AGM and Extraordinary
General Meeting.
There is a wealth of information online. All announcements
made to Bursa Malaysia are updated on our corporate
website as soon as practicable. In addition, slides and
notes from the quarterly investor briefings are also updated
on our website for the benefit of those unable to attend
these meetings.
The Company had at its AGM last year amended its Articles
of Association to enhance electronic communication to
shareholders and provide for electronic poll voting. These
facilitate greater shareholder participation.
Annual General Meeting
The Board seeks to encourage shareholder attendance
at its AGM. The Chairmen of the Audit, Remuneration and
Nomination Committees, together with other Directors will
normally attend the AGM. Shareholders are encouraged to
raise any pertinent issues at the meeting.
Ethics
Code of practice
The Board is committed to ensuring that all its business
activities operate with the highest standards of business
ethics and integrity as summarised in the Company’s
written code on business practices, which are applicable
Group-wide including Group facilities overseas. There is
a Whistleblowing reporting procedure which encourages
transparency and accountability within the Group.
Employment contracts and policies specify acceptable
business practices and the Group’s position on ethical
issues.
