MONDAY, 29th JUNE 2015 – Sri Minal Construction Sdn Bhd and its directors, Lim Gen Leng and Siaw Teck Hwa had pleaded guilty at the Kemaman Magistrate’s Court today for charges under Section 370(1) which was read together with Section 165(4) of the Companies Act 1965, for defaulting in the lodgement of the company’s Annual Returns for the 2010 to the Registrar, after a prior conviction and sentencing of the company and its directors on 03 March 2014.

Puan Rofiah Binti Mohamad, Magistrate of the Kemaman Magistrate’s Court, had imposed a sentence on each of the accused as follows:

NoAccused Person / PartyPenalty Imposed
1.Lim Gen LengRM100.00 daily x 32 days = RM3,200.00 @ in default 6 months imprisonment
2.Siaw Teck HwaRM100.00 daily x 32 days = RM3,200.00 @ in default 6 months imprisonment
3.Sri Minal Construction Sdn. Bhd.RM100.00 daily x 32 days = RM3,200.00

During mitigation, the accused had appealed to the Court for a minimal sentence as the company is in the process of lodging its Annual Return.

Encik Mohd Fauzi Bin Awang, prosecuting officer from SSM, had appeared on behalf of the Public Prosecutor.

As the company has yet to comply with Section 165(4) for the year charged, a fresh notice of default penalty had been issued to compel the company to lodge its Annual Return for the year 2010 within 30 days from the date of sentencing.

SSM views the breaches committed in the above case seriously. Punitive action imposed by Court is to remind company directors and their officers, the need to strictly adhere to the requirements of the Companies Act 1965.

ISNIN, 29 JUN 2015 – Syarikat dan pengarah-pengarah syarikat Sri Minal Construction Sdn. Bhd., Lim Gen Leng dan Siaw Teck Hwa telah mengaku salah di Mahkamah Majistret Kemaman pada hari ini bagi pertuduhan-pertuduhan di bawah Seksyen 370(1) yang dibaca bersama Seksyen 165(7) Akta Syarikat 1965, bagi kesalahan berterusan gagal menyerahsimpan Penyata Tahunan syarikat tersebut bagi tahun 2010 kepada Pendaftar Syarikat setelah syarikat dan pengarah-pengarahnya dijatuhkan hukuman di bawah Seksyen 165(7) Akta Syarikat 1965 pada 03 Mac 2014.

Majistret di Mahkamah Majistret Kemaman, Puan Rofiah Binti Mohamad telah menjatuhkan hukuman denda seperti berikut:

BilPetuduhHukuman
1.Lim Gen LengDenda RM100.00 sehari x 32 hari = RM3,200.00 @ 6 bulan penjara sekiranya ingkar
2.Siaw Teck HwaDenda RM100.00 sehari x 32 hari = RM3,200.00 @ 6 bulan penjara sekiranya ingkar
3.Sri Minal Construction Sdn. Bhd.Denda RM100.00 sehari x 32 hari = RM3,200.00

Sewaktu mitigasi hukuman, pengarah-pengarah telah merayu kepada Mahkamah supaya dikenakan hukuman denda yang minimum kerana syarikat sedang berusaha untuk menyerahsimpan Penyata Tahunan bagi tahun yang dituduh walaupun melewati tempoh yang diberikan.

Pendakwaan telah dijalankan oleh pegawai pendakwa Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia (‘SSM’), Encik Mohd Fauzi Bin Awang.

Oleh kerana syarikat tersebut masih gagal menyerahsimpan penyata tahunan bagi tahun yang dituduh, satu notis penalti ingkar kali kedua telah dikeluarkan selepas hukuman dijatuhkan, di mana syarikat dikehendaki menyerahsimpan Penyata Tahunan 2010 dalam tempoh 30 hari dari tarikh jatuh hukum.

Kegagalan mematuhi kehendak asas Akta Syarikat 1965 adalah satu perlanggaran undang-undang yang dipandang serius oleh SSM. Tindakan penguatkuasaan yang diambil oleh SSM ini diharapkan dapat memberi peringatan kepada syarikat dan pegawai-pegawai syarikat agar sentiasa mematuhi Akta Syarikat 1965.
