A Day at the Petronas Dagangan AGM

As Petronas Dagangan Berhad (PDB)was one of the better AGM to attend, I started early by LRT to the KLCC. On registration, I was given a breakfast pack. Great way to have your own packed breakfast without rushing for breakfast like hungry wolves as seen in most AGMs.Tea and coffee was free-flowing.

Took the opportunity to apply for Petronas Maybank Co-branded Visa Card and CIMB-Petronas Co-branded Visa as well. CIMB gave me an umbrella while Maybank gave me a journal and a pen. I also re-registered for my Mesra Petronas Loyalty Card.

It was a good meeting. PDB pays good dividend to its shareholders. It paid 33% for fiscal 2008. One of the Director which refused to agree to a suggestion that they franked out all the retained earnings as dividends to shareholders got a real good tongue-lashing. Poor China man-must have been a great accountant to be hired to sit on the PDB Board.

I also got two squeeze balls from Petronas for both me and Choo Peen. Good to practice palm and finger exercises to avoid rheumatoid attacks and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Lunch was very good. Cukup baik Petronas. Syabas!
