Dealings in Securities
The Company has adopted an internal code on dealings in securities to govern dealings in its shares by the Directors and the employees
of the Group. This internal code is made in compliance with Rule 1207(19) of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST relating to dealings in

are reminded to observe insider trading rules at all times and not to deal with the Company’s securities on short-term considerations.
