BURSA MALAYSIA STRONGLY ADVISES REMOTE PARTICIPATION AND VOTING FOR ITS SHAREHOLDERS AT THE UPCOMING ADJOURNED 43rd ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING TO BE HELD ON 29 APRIL 2020
Kuala Lumpur, 1 April 2020 – To ensure the health and safety of all its shareholders, Bursa Malaysia Berhad (“Bursa Malaysia”) will put in place added safety measures at its 43rd Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) which was adjourned from the original date on 31 March 2020 to 29 April 2020, at the same venue in Kuala Lumpur.
Following the Government’s implementation of the Movement Control Order (“MCO”) nationwide and the unprecedented conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Bursa Malaysia is implementing various safety measures that reflect these concerns. Most notably, shareholders are strongly advised to participate and vote remotely at its 43rd AGM using the available Remote Participation and Voting (“RPV”) facilities. To do so, they will need to pre-register at https://tiih.online. Registration to participate via RPV will be closed by 3.00 p.m. on Tuesday, 28 April 2020. Following a verification process, authenticated shareholders will receive an e-mail containing their user ID and password for remote participation. With the RPV facilities, a shareholder may exercise his right to participate (including placing questions to the Board / Management of the Company) and vote at the AGM, from the comfort of their home.
These safety measures are also necessary to enable Bursa Malaysia to comply with the Government and relevant authorities’ directives and guidelines relating to public gatherings or events, which may be issued from time to time.
If shareholders are not able to attend the AGM via RPV facilities, they can also appoint the Chairman of the meeting as their proxy and indicate the voting instructions in the Proxy Form.
Bursa Malaysia will continue to monitor the developments of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional safety measures will be introduced as necessary to protect the well-being of the public while complying with its regulatory obligations. For more information on the AGM and the procedures for engaging the RPV facilities, shareholders should refer to the Notification to Shareholders on the Adjournment of the 43rd AGM of Bursa Malaysia at:
