Bagged Platinum Excellence Award for Companies with RM2 billion to RM10 billion in Market Capitalisation and Platinum Award for Best Annual Report in Bahasa Malaysia.

​​​Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) continues its winning streak at the National Annual Corporate Report Awards (NACRA) 2020 when the Company walked away with two (2) Platinum awards at the awards presentation ceremony, held virtually in Kuala Lumpur, recently.​

TM bagged the Platinum Excellence Award for Companies with RM2 billion to RM10 billion in Market Capitalisation and this is the fifth (5th) time the Company clinched the most coveted award, after its win in 2014, 2013, 2011 and 2006, thus portraying its long history of exemplary corporate reporting. The other Platinum award that TM won at NACRA 2020 was the Special Awards – Best Annual Report in Bahasa Malaysia.

Commenting on the win, Imri Mokhtar, Group Chief Executive Officer, TM, said: “We are both humbled and thrilled to be recognised once again at NACRA 2020. As a public listed company, we are committed to good shareholders’ communication to keep all our stakeholders well informed about the company. This underpins the foundation of corporate reporting; building trust, reputation and value whilst complying to Bursa Malaysia’s listing requirements. These awards are testament to our resolve to uphold a high level of corporate governance, transparency and disclosure of information as we work towards delivering higher value for our all stakeholders.”

“On behalf of TM’s management team, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate each and every Warga TM for their hard work and tireless efforts towards producing the Annual Report year after year; and especially for the 2019 edition. The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic proved not a hindrance to the team in delivering their best. This year also saw us conducting TM’s very first virtual Annual General Meeting (AGM). 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).

In its 30th year, NACRA 2020 continues to be a force for spurring continuing excellence and improvement in corporate reporting in Malaysia, in line with its evergreen theme, “Towards Accountability & Excellence”. Every year, NACRA guidelines are reviewed and enhanced to ensure that the standards and quality of the production of annual reports are in line with current requirements and the latest global developments.

NACRA 2020 introduces a brand-new awards structure and assessment criteria that augments recognition to many more leading organisations and is aligned with global and integrated reporting framework (IRF) and best practices. It has become the benchmark, in which stakeholders associate with fair, transparent and informative corporate reporting. Earlier in 2020, NACRA introduced a new framework which integrates elements of sustainability and integrated reporting in line with evolving expectations.​
