I don't live in Singapore, but I do have the shares in CDP in my own name. Should I bring a printout of this or is just my passport enough ?

They will have your records so just go to the AGM with your passport or I/C.

The AGM experience for me has been different; encountered full food trays cos very few retail shareholders bother to attend the AGM.

I wonder if someone here dares to make the following estimation: what percentage of the current AGM attendees would stop attending if food is no longer distributed ?

Raffles Med did not give free food. Instead they give $10 CapitaMall vouchers for those attending to enjoy their choice of food at next door Bugis Junction.

Give out free Vitamin C too.

Very interesting! i like. i want to buy Raffles MED stock. But i doubt i will attend the AGM. Still i think it's a good counter to own though i have not done any homework on it.

Unless it can continue growing at a fast rate, otherwise I think it is quite pricy in term of all ratios. I am only holding on to a small bit of remains just to keep track of the company.

The Securities Investors Association Singapore has issued a statement about the 'storming of the buffet' issue:

Attended OCBC AGM today. As per previous years, each SH is given one voucher which they can exchange for a box of food at the end of the meeting. It seems orderly, until towards the end of meeting, one woman SH asked the Chairman, quite rudely, on why no plastic bag was provided for her to carry her food. She even demanded an immediate answer from the Chairman. Its really hard to please everyone.
