I am personally proud with these achievements and hope that this will give a boost for all of us to deliver even better in the future,” he added.
The 2020 National Annual Corporate Report Awards (NACRA) was jointly organised by Bursa Malaysia Berhad (Bursa Malaysia), Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) and The Malaysian Institute of Certified Public Accountants (MICPA).
