VICOM's annual report came in soft copy with a CD attached in a sleeve along with two sheets of summarized financial information. I must say the Company is going environmentally friendly by doing so and in the process, has helped to save quite a number of trees!
Interestingly, you can't download their full annual report 2011 from their website (it comes in sections).
For the full version, get it through SGXNet Annual Reports section.

But i prefer reading hard-copy haha ! Hate to read things on the screen.
As for CDs, I think it is redundant as shareholders could easily download the soft-copy directly from SGX.

2 companies in my portfolio also either come in CD or condensed version. (they gave shareholders the freedom to choose between those or a full AR). I m pleased n support this CSR effort.
However I do agree tt an AR is easier to read (n more imptly scribble notes/thoughts on). But for the sake of our forests, I reckon it is a convenience I can do w/o.
