• GAB has also implemented Control Assurance and Risk Management
(CARM), a web-based self-assessment programme. CARM requires
each process owner to evaluate and ensure that it has appropriate
controls in place to manage a broad range of risks arising from
day-to-day business activities. CARM emphasises internal controls
over financial reporting for the purpose of compliance with the
requirements of SOX controls and focuses on transparency,
accountability and safeguarding of assets.
• GAB has in place a comprehensive Business Continuity Plan as an
integral part of the Group’s strategy to mitigate risks and manage the
impact of any crisis. Crisis simulations are conducted periodically to
enhance the Group’s preparedness in crisis and emergency situations
to ensure that there is minimal or no disruption to its operations and
business during a crisis or disaster.

River Rehabilitation Project
• In December 2007, GAB Foundation initiated a project to conserve
the tributary of the Pencala River. This project engages local
communities near the GAB Foundation centre, business entities,
Government sectors, service providers as well as local leaders and
politicians.
• The Foundation has successfully created excellent working
partnerships with the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ), Department
of Environment (DOE), Drainage and Irrigation Department (JPS),
Department of National Unity and Integration, the Selangor Water
Management Board (LUAS) and the Fisheries Department.
• Recent evidence indicates that certain fish species are being spotted
more frequently than before as are snakeheads, catfish, eels and
tortoise.
Sungai Way Rehabilitation Project
The Foundation will continue with the water quality
testing, solid waste management and biodiversity
study to ensure the river is on the right track to be
rehabilitated.
A Mobile River Education Care Unit will be set-up to
carry out interactive exhibitions as well as to provide
resources and equipment to deliver water quality
education to schools and communities.
The Foundation will continue to educate and train
the surrounding communities – both businesses and
residential – to further change mindsets.
We will continue with the habitat creation practice.
