Nancy (not her real name) and her fellow committee members were recently elected as Joint Management Committee (JMC) members of the Joint Management Body (JMB) of a relatively new condominium in Selangor. As this was the first time they were tasked to helm a JMB, they had mixed feelings. They were excited to have the blessings of fellow owners to run the JMB, but at the same time, they were not too familiar with the intricacies of the Strata Management Act, 2013 (SMA) and its regulations. During one of HBA’s Meet the Public Sessions, HBA volunteers enlightened Nancy on the Annual General Meeting (AGM), Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM), Quorum of meeting, etc. Here is a summary of the Q&A for everyone’s benefit.
It is pertinent to note that the executive committee of the JMB is known as the JMC, and the executive committee of the Management Corporation (MC), is simply known as the Management Committee under the SMA.
