Board Diversity

The Company recognises and embraces the benefits of diversity of Board members and strives to have high transparency in the selection process of the Board. It endeavours to ensure that the Board has a balance of skills, experience and diversity of perspectives that are appropriate to the requirements of the Company's business. All Board appointments are made on a merit basis with due regard for the benefits of diversity of the Board members. Selection of candidates will be based on a range of diversity perspectives, including but not limited to gender, age, cultural and educational background, experience (professional or otherwise), skills and knowledge.
