TOTAL | | $ | 56,311 | | | | | | | $ | 37,902 | | | | 58% | |
East Cloud Sdn Bhd, Creative Property Management Sdn Bhd, MIG O2O Berhad and MIG Network & Consultancy Sdn Bhd are owned by our executive officers and directors, Shiong Han Wee and Kwueh Lin Wong. Messrs. Wee and Wong also serve as directors of these companies.
As of July 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company was indebted to MIG Network & Consultancy Sdn Bhd, our related company, in the amount of $1,236,274 and $1,037,691, respectively, for advances and expenses incurred on behalf of the Company. The amounts are included in due to related parties and are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due on demand.

During the years ended July 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized the following transactions with MIG Network & Consultancy Sdn Bhd, our related company:
| | As at July 31, | |
| | 2020 | | | 2019 | |

Legal fees paid to | | | 6,700 | | | | 9,147 | |

The above transactions have been included in the statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
We have not adopted policies or procedures for approval of related person transactions but review them on a case-by-case basis. We believe that all related party transactions were on terms at least as favorable as we would have secured in arm’s-length transactions with third parties. Except as set forth above, we have not entered into any material transactions with any director, executive officer, and promoter, beneficial owner of five percent or more of our common stock, or family members of such persons.
Board Leadership Structure and Risk Management
Our Board recognizes that the leadership structure and combination or separation of the chief executive officer and chairman roles is driven by the needs of the Company at any point in time. As of the date of this Information Statement, the Company has had no active operations and believes that the separation of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman has not been necessary. The Company has no policy requiring combination or separation of leadership roles and our governing documents do not mandate a particular structure. This has allowed our Board the flexibility to establish the most appropriate structure for the Company at any given time. The Company currently has two independent directors: Pui Hold Ho and Mun Wai Wong.
Given that the Company has had no active operations, there is no material need for risk management by the Board.
Director Independence; Committees of the Board
Our board of directors is currently composed of four members, two of whom do not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.
Effective September 22, 2017, we formed an Audit Committee which is comprised of our independent directors: Pui Hold Ho and Mun Wai Wong. A copy of the charter for our Audit Committee is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to our Annual Report for the year ended July 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 7, 2021. Mr. Ho currently serves as the Audit Committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.
We have not formed separate Corporate Governance and Compensation and Nominations committees. Our entire Board performs the functions of the Corporate Governance and Compensation and Nominations committees.
Current management cannot predict whether management of the Company following the Closing Date will continue to adopt the NASDAW definition of “independence” or establish any committees of the board.
We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates which may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor has our Board established a process for identifying and evaluating director nominees, nor do we have a policy regarding director diversity. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our Board has not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve on our Board. Given our status as a “shell company”, we do not anticipate that any of our stockholders will make such a recommendation until after consummation of the Stock Purchase Agreement. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees. In considering a director nominee, it is likely that our Board will consider the professional and/or educational background of any nominee with a view towards how this person might bring a different viewpoint or experience to our Board.
Board Meetings; Annual Meeting Attendance
During fiscal years ended July 31, 2020, and 2021, our Board did not meet. We did not hold an annual meeting of stockholders in 2021. In the absence of formal meetings, the Board conducted all of its business and approved all corporate actions during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2021 by the unanimous written consent of its members, as permitted by and in conformity with the corporate laws of the State of Nevada.
Stockholder Communications
The Board has not adopted a process for security holders to send communications to the Board. Given the nature of the Company’s business, its limited stockholder base and current composition of management, the Board does not believe that the Company requires a process for security holders to send communications to the Board at this time. The Board takes the position that management of the Company following the Closing Date will establish such a process that will be appropriate for the Company’s operations.
Code of Ethics
We adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our officers and directors, which is a “code of ethics” as defined by applicable rules of the SEC. If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical, administrative, or other non-substantive amendments, or grant any waivers, including implicit waivers, from a provision of our Code of Ethics to our officers or directors, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver, its effective date and to whom it applies in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is not aware of any material proceedings in which any director, executive officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of our common stock, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company.
COMPENSATION
During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2020, our executive officers received compensation through employment arrangements with MIG Mobile Tech Berhad. On August 24, 2021, we divested ourselves of MIG Mobile Tech Berhad. As a result, our executive directors and officers do not receive compensation for services in such capacities.
Summary Compensation Table
The following tables set forth, for each of the last two completed fiscal years of the Company, the total compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to any person who was a principal executive officer during the preceding fiscal year and every other highest compensated executive officers earning more than $100,000 during the last fiscal year (together, the “Named Executive Officers”). The tables set forth below reflect the compensation of the Named Executive Officers.

Compensation Risk Management
Our Board of directors and human resources staff conducted an assessment of potential risks that may arise from our compensation programs. Based on this assessment, we concluded that our policies and practices do not encourage excessive and unnecessary risk taking that would be reasonably likely to have material adverse effect on the Company. The assessment included our cash incentive programs, which awards non-executives with cash bonuses for punctuality. Our compensation programs are substantially identical among business units, corporate functions and global locations (with modifications to comply with local regulations as appropriate). The risk-mitigating factors considered in this assessment included:
| · | the alignment of pay philosophy, peer group companies and compensation amount relative to local competitive practices to support our business objectives; and |
| · | effective balance of cash, short- and long-term performance periods, caps on performance-based award schedules and financial metrics with individual factors and Board and management discretion. |
