For the first time, SNCF held its Triennial General Assembly (TGA) on 3 September in the virtual space as a result of COVID-19 pandemic.  At the eTGA, Mr Kwek Kok Kwong, Chairman of SNCF recapped the steps taken by the Co-operative Movement to do good and do well together from FY2017 to FY2019.

The eTGA saw 54 representatives from affiliated organisations receiving updates on SNCF’s initiatives to help the four co-operative sectors serve their members and the community better. Prior to the meeting, delegates had submitted their votes on the tabled resolutions through a proxy form.

The attendees also witnessed the election of the new SNCF Executive Council for the next three years.

SNCF welcomed four new members to the SNCF Exco – Ms Thian Ai Ling from the NTUC First Campus Co-operative Ltd, Mr John Raghavan from the Singapore Government Staff Credit Co-operative Society Ltd, Mr Allan Tok from the Singapore Teachers’ Co-operative Society Ltd, Mr Mike Chian from the Love Empowered Co-operative Ltd.

SNCF also wished to record its appreciation to Mr Richard Zaccheus and Mr Mike Thiruman, who had just stepped down from the EXCO for their commitment and dedication during their term of office.  Mr Kwek Kok Kwong was re-elected as the Chairman for the new term FY2020 to FY2022. Existing Exco members Mr Tng Ah Yiam and Mr Yeo Chun Fing, who renewed their terms of appointment, were re-elected as the First and Second Deputy Chairpersons respectively.
