SECTION 2: OUR STRATEGIC CONTEXT 56 Proportion of Local Senior Management MST Golf is committed to developing and promoting local talent within our leadership team, ensuring that the Group’s senior management reflects the communities in which we operate. In 2024, we hired 100% of the Group’s senior management team in significant locations of operation from the local community, an increase from 75% in 2023. For MST Golf, senior management comprises members from the Management Committee and senior managers. Our definition of "local" refers to the country where the company is established. For MST Golf Group Berhad, this includes Malaysia as the local region, while for MST Golf Singapore, it refers to Singapore. Senior Management Hired from the Local Community 2023 2024 Proportion of senior management hired from the local community 75% 100% Permanent and Temporary Employees As of 2024, 84% of MST Golf’s workforce comprised permanent employees, while 16% were contract or temporary staff, exceeding our initial target of maintaining contract employment below 10%. This increase is primarily due to regulatory work policies in Indonesia, where contract-based employment is more prevalent. No employees with disabilities were hired in 2024. Additionally, the Group engaged 15 agency workers who are not classified as employees but whose work is controlled by MST Golf.
