The IMechE-UNITEN Student Chapter held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on the 4th of August 2009. It was held in room BW-G-R05 of College of Information Technology. The purpose of the AGM was mainly to introduce the new line-up of the committee to the members of this chapter to the members.

There were 21 people who attended the AGM although all the members were notified about the meeting. The amount of attendees was exceptional due to some unforeseen circumstances. The VIP for the day was IMechE UNITEN Student Chapter advisor, Associate Professor Dr. Mohd. Azree bin Idris.

The AGM began at 9.00pm with the arrival of Associate Professor Dr. Mohd. Azree bin Idris. The MC for the day, Roger Yang Yong Seng started the AGM by welcoming the members present there.

Then, Associate Professor Dr. Mohd. Azree bin Idris was invited to give his speech. Associate Professor Dr. Mohd. Azree bin Idris talked about the mechanical department being the stepping stone to get international accreditations. Also, he touched on how he knows a few of the incoming committee members personally and that they are capable people not only when it comes to studies.

After the speech, Nicholas was on stage to call up the incoming committee members. All the incoming committee members came up on stage and then introduced themselves with their designated posts.

The AGM was then continued with the presentation of certificates to the outgoing committee. Unfortunately not all the outgoing committee members were present. Due to this, Andrew Lew Fei Meng, Joshua Ooi Xu Jun, Lau Jian Xiong and Lim Doou Han represented the outgoing committee in receiving the certificates which was presented by Associate Professor Dr. Mohd. Azree bin Idris. The AGM was then ended and dinner was served.

The AGM ended at 9.30pm with dinner between the new committee and the members. The AGM went well despite below-than-expected number of members attending the meeting.
