DATELINE KUALA LUMPUR:
THE MAJORITY of the previous term's PETPOSITIVE Committee Members were re-elected yesterday to serve another new two-year term in the Society. Two new Committee Members were picked to replace two others who resigned during their tenure.
This was accomplished at PETPOSITIVE's third Annual General Meeting.
The event was held from 2.30pm until 4pm at the Parkinson's Club in Jalan Nyaman 10 in Old Klang Road.
The elections was endorsed by nearly 25 PETPOSITIVE members. The numbers are what that is required by the Society's constitution to form a quorum to hold annual and extraordinary meetings.
The meeting began with PETPOSITIVE welcoming leaders of three other NGOs for the disabled and animals who are also the Society's members.
They are Christine Chin, Chairman of the Selangor SPCA; N Surendran, Protem President of Malaysian Animal Rights Society (ROAR), Sara Lew, President of the Malaysian Parkinson's Disease Association and Francis Siva, President of the Independent Living and Training Centre in Rawang, Selangor.
In his Presidential Address, Anthony Thanasayan noted that for an infant organisation, Petpositive's past 24-month history-in-the-making in 2007 has been all but extraordinary.
"We used the media like never before by literally spreading our message to the nation and the world through every newspapers, on radio and even in TV," he noted.
