The Megat Terawis Clan Association in their last Annual General Meeting has decided to form a co-operative to act as the clan’s business arm. After months of discussions, meetings between protem committee members and the Malaysian Co-operative Commission, we managed to hold our Inaugural General Meeting on the 21st August 2011 at USJ, Selangor. After the successful meeting, all documentations were finalised and submitted to the Commission for approval. Finally, today – 5th October 2011, I represented the Board of Directors to meet the Commission to receive the Registration Certificate of the Co-operative. The official birth date of the Co-operative is 23rd September 2011.
