It’s
been 14 months since this ExCo took office. We have
organised many activities and held our 39th AGM on
24 Jul 2014. Although we had a quorum of 26 members
to conduct the AGM, this is below the average of
previous AGMs. While we recognised that the format
has been changed we hope our members will try to get
used to Thursday evenings instead of Sunday mornings
for our AGMs. And, of course, “Seletar is very far
away”.
In these 14 months, we organised the SATEC 2014 and
launched two new projects – Aviation Safety
Competition and Café Aeronautique. We had good
participation and generous sponsorship for all the
events.
The ExCo has undergone many changes, with four
members co-opted to replace elected members who had
resigned due to work commitment and overseas
postings.
The 39th AGM on 24 Jul 2014 went well, with members
approving a resolution to divest 30% of ATTC equity.
In my opening address, I explained the difficulty of
reaching out to members: our previous webmail host
had become uncontactable. Faced with a serious
financial deficit, we had to work on piecemeal
patches to develop a workable solution. The website
has come along quite well but most of the
information in the membership database still needs
updating.
Much of the discussion was centered on the ExCo’s
paper on the divestment of ATTC. While the lively
discussions were welcomed, the perception that the
ExCo had attempted to push through the resolution
with minimum opportunities for members to discuss
the issue was unfortunate. To clear the air, I made
an impassioned plea to members to understand the
history of ATTC and the culture of SIAE.
Since 1975, when SIAE was founded, aviation in
Singapore has gone through several transformations.
From a single airline with an engineering base
supporting turboprop aircraft and early B707 and
B737 jets, Singapore has grown to be one of the
biggest MRO base in the world. We have six airlines
with a total of 196 aircraft, 125 SAR-145 approved
maintenance companies (76 based in Singapore) and 35
SAR-21 approved design and production companies.
Such transformations require serious re-thinking
about relevance and new opportunities in every
corner of the industry. SIAE is not exempted. We
started conducting courses in hotel function rooms
with volunteer teachers in 1997 because there were
no aircraft maintenance courses in Singapore. Today
there are nine SAR-147 approved training
organisations. All the polytechnics and ITE colleges
have aerospace engineering courses.
We will need to review our role in supporting
training of engineers and technicians. ExCo has
reviewed ATTC operation and decided to reduce SIAE
ownership to less than 50% over the next few years.
It has never been SIAE’s intention to run a
business. After much deliberation, it was decided
that divesting 30% would be the first step. The AGM
then voted 15-2 to pass the resolution to divest 30%
of ATTC. An EGM will be organised to approve the
transactions.
