Hi,
I have uploaded the OSHCA-registration_v1draft4 in pdf format for
discussion on its contents. Please feel free to comment on any articles
in the constitution. For ease of documentation, please quote the article
number before giving your comments or proposals here.
Please also suggest how dissent should be handled. We hope to include
your proposals into the draft document, unless there are dissenting
views in which case either the protem will decide or there would be a
vote. However, please note that the constitution is a living document
and amendments can also be made later.
Please also note that there are some provisions that will be specific in
Malaysia such as Article 16 and Malaysian citizens such as Article 16.4.
I have yet to include provisions that would be needed to obtain a tax
free status for OSHCA. The only requirement I've included in so far is
that of Article 11.2.
We hope to have this process completed at the end of a 7-day period. By
then, I would put up the agreed resolutions for acceptance by the
"members" which would form part of the documentations that would be
submitted formally to the Registrar of Societies for registration. Below
is a sample resolution for the formation of OSHCA. If you would like to
add other resolutions please suggest on this list as well.

One major question I have is: Should only those who participate in the
resolution to accept the constitution be accepted as initial members of
OSHCA and what are the members information we need to have in the
membership register?
Target date for submission is now 20 April 2006
