Dear Members,
Probably the elections committee can explain the challenges they
faced. Electronic Internet voting is not an easy thing in this part of
the world were Internet itself is a challenge. It's great the chapter
set the precedence in electronic voting.
We saw some members requesting for more time to vote since they only
have access to internet during weekdays, yet the voting was done on
the weekend. I would also like them to divulge how many people voted,
and if those numbers constituted any quorum.
In all AGMs, there is
usually a set number of members that constitute quorum for any
elections. I'm expecting maybe of the 500 members, a third voted, that
is about 150 members. It's only logical that a certain threshold has
to be met for the election to be valid, and represent the interest and
wish of the majority of members. It would be nice if the election team
discussed and divulged those challenges, and clarify members concerns.
All the same, Kudos to the elections committee. I'm confident they
will do the right thing.
Warm Regards
