A. BOARD LEADERSHIP AND EFFECTIVENESS The Board adopted a Board Charter which sets out the authority, role and responsibilities of the Board, Board Committees, individual Directors and Senior Management. The Board Charter also sets out the membership and operation of the Board, and issues and decisions reserved for the Board. The Board reviews the Board Charter from time to time and makes any necessary amendments to ensure it complies with relevant laws, regulations and practices, and remain relevant and effective in the light of the Board’s objectives. The last review of the Board Charter in FY2022 was on 29 November 2022. The Board Charter is accessible at https://www.kimlun.com. Authority The Board’s roles and responsibilities are governed by the Constitution of the Company and also in accordance with the Companies Act 2016 (“CA 2016”), the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities (“MMLR”), the MCCG of SC, the Capital Markets and Services Act 2007 (“CMSA”) and any other prevailing regulatory corporate governance practices and laws or regulatory requirements. Board Composition The Constitution of the Company provides that the Company shall have a minimum of three directors and a maximum of ten directors. In compliance with Paragraph 15.02 of the MMLR, there shall be at least two directors or one-third (1/3) of the Board, whichever is higher, who are Independent Directors and at least one Director is a woman. The Board consists of ten qualified individuals with diverse set of skills, experience and knowledge necessary to govern the Company. None of the Board members is person linked directly with the executive powers such as heads of state, heads of government and ministers and none of the Board members is an active politician. Five of the Directors are Independent Non-Executive Directors (“Independent Directors”), thus the Company complied with Paragraph 15.02 of the MMLR as well as Practice 5.2 of MCCG which stipulates that at least 50% of the Board comprises Independent Directors. The composition and size of the Board is such that it facilitates the decision making of the Company. The Independent Directors provide objective and independent views and judgement in decision-making processes of the Board covering issues of strategy, performance and risks. The presence of the Independent Directors fulfills a pivotal role in corporate governance accountability and ensures the interests of all shareholders are indeed taken into account by the Board.
