In consideration of Mr. Su’s extensive knowledge and experience in various aspects, in particular the management in the steel industry and sales area, the Board considers this present arrangement still enables the Company to make decisions promptly in the formulation and implementation of the Company’s strategies in achieving corporate goals. Notwithstanding the deviation, the Board is of the view that there are sufficient checks and balances amongst the Board to reach decisions in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. The Board will review the management structure from time to time and the need to separate the roles of the chairman of the Board and the managing Director into two individuals. Deviation from code provision D.1.4 of the Code During the year under review, the Company deviated from the code provision D.1.4 of the Code.
