The Group and the Company’s financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (RM), which is also the Company’s functional<br />
currency.<br />
All financial information presented in RM has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.<br />
1.4 Use of estimates and judgements<br />
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the<br />
application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ<br />
from these estimates.<br />
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the<br />
period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
