Recently, i attended an AGM conducted by the MC (stratified property) of the property that i reside in.
I am a parcel owner of this property, and the parcel has owner 2 names (me and my wife).
When we attended this AGM, i was told to submit a proxy letter, to either name 1 of the owners (between me and my wife) and was then given a coloured paper for vote eligibility. They had 2 different coloured papers. One was yellow (which they classify as 'proxy') and another was green (which i assume - the parcel had only 1 owner's name). After filing out and signing the proxy letter, i was given the yellow coloured paper for voting purposes.
During the election of committee members, it was announced that proxy (attendees who held the yellow paper) cannot be voted as committee members.
so up to this point, my confusion is, for parcels that has 2 names (like myself), the owner is not eligible to become a committee member?
what is the definition of proxy in this scenario?
there were also other residents that were owners but was asked for proxy as well.
to my understanding, for purpose of vote counting, if a parcel has 2 owners name, i can comprehend the need to have a proxy (to choose a representative between the 2 named owners of that single parcel) to decide on where to cast the vote. but i cannot understand the difference between the yellow and green paper used to differentiate between a proxy and a (i assume) single owner of a parcel.
is this a standard practice to classify parcels that has 2 owners as proxy (in this case - given a yellow paper (proxy))? Or has the organising committee made a mistake in classifying me as a proxy? (i am a rightful owner of the parcel. the parcel has 2 names - me and my wife).
To my understanding, tenants can attend the agm if the parcel owner assigns them as their proxy. But in my scenario, I am the owner and I had to be named proxy between me and my wife.
Appreciate if experienced and experts in this field could share some
