The Institute of Corporate Directors Malaysia (ICDM) recently conferred the ICDM Honorary Fellowship on four distinguished individuals in recognition of their remarkable contributions to corporate governance and their tireless service to society.
“This is the first time, since our launch to the capital market in 2018, ICDM has sought to recognise exemplary individuals who are role models in the director community. These role models have demonstrated the highest standards of ethics and integrity as well as exemplary current and past service in public and private sectors,” said Michele Kythe Lim, President & Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of ICDM.
The Honorary Fellowship is the highest and by-invitation only category of membership within ICDM, and carries the post-nominal title of ‘ICDM(HF)’. All Honorary Fellows will enjoy lifetime membership at ICDM and all its accompanying benefits.
The four recipients of the ICDM Honorary Fellowship are, Yang Amat Berbahagia Tun Dato’ Seri Utama Arshad Ayub, Yang Berbahagia Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr Teh Hong Piow, Yang Berbahagia Datuk Mohaiyani Shamsudin and Allahyarham Yang Amat Berbahagia Tun Ahmad Sarji Abdul Hamid.
“The work and dedication of these four individuals have undoubtedly benefitted a broad spectrum of Malaysia’s society. It is truly our honour to have the opportunity to confer upon them the ICDM Honorary Fellowship. On behalf of ICDM, I would like to convey to them and their families our heartfelt congratulations.
“The conferment is a crucial milestone of ICDM in recognising excellent leadership in corporate governance. As the centre of excellence for the professional development of boards and directors, we are committed to working closely with regulators, partners, industry experts and boards directors to raise director professionalism and enhance board effectiveness,” added Lim.
