Amendments to Strata Management Act 2013 – Focus Group 1/2025 with various stakeholders

Focus Group Workshop 1/2025 on Proposed Amendments to the Strata Management Act 2013

On 19th and 20th May 2025, the Ministry of Housing and Local Government (KPKT), through the National Housing Department (JPN), organized Focus Group Workshop 1/2025 to discuss potential amendments to the Second Schedule of the Strata Management Act 2013 (Act 757).

The workshop centered on bringing about procedural aspects for conducting hybrid and fully virtual Annual General Meetings (AGMs), including the implementation of e-voting.

Key considerations included establishing safeguards to ensure the integrity and auditability of online general meetings, ensuring they integrity of the meeting is preserved and can withstand legal challenge in court.

We would also like to express our gratitude to Ms. Wong Youn Kim from Synergy Professionals Group Sdn Bhd for stepping in at short notice and sharing valuable insights on the practical implementation of hybrid meetings and e-voting under the Companies Act framework.
