Principle 5 – Board Performance
The NC will decide how the Board’s performance is to be evaluated and propose objective performance criteria, subject to the approval of the
Board, to evaluate how the Board has enhanced long-term shareholders’ value. As the Company does not have any major direct public-listed
competitors, the Board’s performance evaluation has not included a benchmark index of its industry peers and its share price performance over a
5-year period. However, the Board has implemented a process to be carried out by the NC for assessing the effectiveness of the Board as a whole
and its board committees and for assessing the contribution of the Chairman and each individual Director to the effective functioning of the Board,
based on a set of criteria. In assessing the performance and effectiveness of the Board and its Board Committees, the NC looks at, amongst
others, the effcacy of the board structure, and the risk management and internal controls that have been put in place. The NC and the Board will
review such criteria from time to time, where appropriate.
The NC conducts a formal review of the Board performance annually, by way of a board performance evaluation form which is circulated to the
Board members for completion, to evaluate and assess the effectiveness of the Board and each Director.
