MGA Organised it’s full virtual 35th Annual General Meeting (AGM)

With Kuala Lumpur still undergoing movement control order (MCO), MGA for the second year running held a virtual AGM.

Compared to last year when the Secretariat team was able to coordinate the AGM from the office, the 35th Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 17 June 2021 was coordinated entirely from home, including handling the Council elections.

At the AGM, Hazli Sham, MGA President, tabled the Annual Report 2020 that was subsequently adopted by the General Meeting. The Annual Report highlighted MGA’s activities in 2020 organised through the working committees and based on the three pillars of MGA mission, namely Advocacy, Communications and Education.

Hazli Sham also reported that all physical events, including major income-generating events, had to be cancelled due to MCO. He also express his appreciation that members are still supporting MGA by membership fees contributions that keep the Association going.

The MCO also provided opportunity for MGA to innovate and adapt. In 2020, MGA was able to organise several virtual events such as webinars that provide a channel to share knowledge with its members.

Mustaffa Kamal, MGA Treasurer, tabled the Financial Statement 2020 that was subsequently adopted by the General Meeting. Thanks to the contribution of membership fees, MGA was able to maintain a healthy income surplus.

MGA also celebrated it’s 35th Anniversary at the AGM with a special video presentation. This video will be made available for public viewing at a later date.
