information other than the financial statements and auditors’ report thereon
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Directors’ Report
and Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control, which we obtained prior to the date of this auditors’ report, and other
sections in the 2020 Annual Report, which is expected to be made available to us after that date. Other information does not
include the financial statements of the Company and our auditors’ report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements of the Company does not cover the other information and we do not express any form
of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Company, our responsibility is to read the other information and,
in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements of the Company or our
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditors’ report,
we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing
to report in this regard.
responsibilities of the Directors for the financial statements
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements of the Company that give a true
and fair view in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and
the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such internal control as the
Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Company that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements of the Company, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting
unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Company as a whole are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with approved
standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing,
we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
(a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Company, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher
than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.

(b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by the Directors.
