Circular decisions are made when it is not possible for a Limited Liability Company to hold a General Meeting of Shareholders or an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders whose provisions can be seen in Article 91 of the UUUP. In Indonesia and even around the world, we are facing a pandemic due to Corona Virus Disease or COVID-19.
