• To better preserve the environment, the different versions of the Draft Memorandum and Articles of Association are not reproduced or physically attached to this Notice. Should any member require a hard copy version, please contact Robert Pang at robpang@gmail.com or by telephone (852) 91672772.
• There are 3 different versions of the Draft Memorandum and Articles of Association respectively Annex 1, Annex 2 and Annex 3. The main differences are to Clauses 36 and 37 dealing with the terms of office of the Executive Committee.
• Annex 1 follows most closely to the existing Constitution. However, there is a risk that
• if no eligible person puts himself/herself up for election and the existing office bearers have  already served 4 consecutive terms, there will be no one to take up such posts (Clause 36);
• if the President has served 4 consecutive terms AND no incumbent Vice-President puts himself/herself up for election as President, the Association (company) will have No President.
•  Annex 2 provides the most flexibility,
• providing that if special circumstances deem necessary and sanctioned by the General Meeting, the office bearers may be re-elected notwithstanding having already served 4 consecutive terms;
• providing that the President can be elected from other Exco members if no eligible Vice-President puts himself/herself up for election as President.
• Annex 3 is drafted after comments received from members who perceive a need for an option half-way between the options at Annex 1 and Annex 2 :
• Office Bearers shall not remain in office for more than 4 consecutive terms;
• The President shall not remain in office for more than 2 consecutive terms;
• The President can be elected from existing Exco members, or Past Presidents and Past Vice Presidents.
• If no existing Exco member, Past President or Past Vice-President offers himself/herself up for election as President and the President has already served 2 consecutive terms, the post of President is opened up for election from amongst all members.

• A copy of the present Constitution can be downloaded here. If any member requires a hard-copy version, please contact Robert Pang as above.
