(vi) The Nominating Committee and the Board have determined that Mr Charles George St. John Reed, Mr Lai Chun Loong and Mr Lee Keen Whye have remained objective and independent in Board discussions and deliberations. Their vast experience enables them to provide the Board and the Board Committees on which they serve with relevant experience and competence to facilitate informed decision making. Their length of service did not impede their exercise of independent judgement nor hinder their ability to act in the best interest of the Company. The Board is of the view that they will continue to discharge their duties independently with competence and integrity. Should any of the Independent Directors fail to be re-elected, the Company will make new appointment(s) within three (3) months.
