something like probing into their family controlled company against corporate governance.
Personally I think it would be impractical to mandate companies to follow a set AGM schedule on a first-come-first-serve basis. Given the number of companies listed on SGX, I'm not sure if its even possible to schedule the meetings within the period stipulated by SGX regulations.
But it is true that AGMs clustering is a problem as its impossible to attend all AGMs. For a start, I would like to see posting of AGMs minutes be made part of the corporate governance requirement. I think it will certainly help improves the process.
I also like the idea of having video posting of the AGMs. Given current technology, it shouldn't be too costly to videotape and post it on the company websites.
Will the management take the views seriously from the minorities during AGMs ? Many simply wayang to them.

AGM provides minorities opportunity to voice their views, and i did hear from them in many AGMs attended.
Will the management take their view seriously? Well, that depend what is the definition of "seriously". If "seriously" mean minority's view out-weight majority's view, that probably i will disagree.
