SRA Committee Empowered on Security, To Revert With Details

Dear SRA Members,

The SRA at our 11th AGM has adopted a resolution on:
Empowering the SRA Committee (The Committee) to take whatever measures necessary towards improving the security of the Seputeh community on the following principles:
a. The Committee explores all avenues of enhancing security and will adopt any paid or unpaid measure for the good of the Seputeh community;
b. The Committee considers seeking funding from any source, including from the Government, provided that the interest of the SRA and the Seputeh community are not compromised;
c. The Committee gives top priority to the welfare, safety and security of the entire Seputeh community;
d. The Committee ensures that any contribution to any security scheme shall be entirely voluntary and no member of the SRA shall be forced or otherwise coerced into paying any money; and,
e. That SRA funds will only be used to benefit members.

The resolution was carried by a majority of 131 for, 36 against and 9 abstaining.

The AGM also adopted a motion that the Committee, when duly empowered, must revert with details of any security scheme and to seek a consensus including calling a "Town Hall" meeting of all residents.

The Committee, at our first meeting on April 12, appointed a security working group to study all options. This group comprises President Robert Quah, Vice-President Mazlan Kamaruddin, Vice-President K.H. Lim, Committee Member Dr Balaeswaran and Committee Member Wilson Szeto.

Watch this space for updates in the next few weeks.

Best Regards,
Robert Quah
President
