OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE OLD RAFFLESIANSโ ASSOCIATION (ORA)
Clarification on the Rafflesian Business Network (RBN)
The Old Rafflesiansโ Association (ORA) would like to clarify that the Rafflesian Business Network (RBN) is the sole official business network interest group established under ORA to serve the wider Rafflesian community.
Founded in March 2024, the mission for RBN was to connect Rafflesians across generations, support one another professionally, foster mentorship, encourage collaboration, and contribute positively to the broader community.
Over the past two years, many volunteers, alumni, students, and community members have contributed their time, effort, and ideas towards building and growing the RBN community. ORA would like to express its deepest appreciation to all who have supported and nurtured the network during its formative years.
As the community evolved, RBN established an Executive Committee (Exco) this year, working closely with ORA leadership, to formalize a governance framework to ensure continuity, accountability and data privacy. This includes the adoption of proper governance structures, a Code of Conduct, and a Memberโs Pledge to maintain a respectful, trusted, and strictly โno hard-sellโ environment for all members.
We deeply appreciate the early contributions of the individuals who helped spark the community's initial growth. While ORA respects the freedom of our alumni to organize and participate in independent groups or personal initiatives outside of the ORA structure, it is essential to draw a clear distinction to prevent public confusion.
For absolute clarity, ORA wishes to state that RBN is the only business network group officially recognized and backed by the ORA. Any other independently organized alumni networking platforms, or social media pages bearing similar names, operate entirely separately from ORA and are not managed, governed, endorsed, or represented by ORA. ORA cannot be held liable for the actions, representations, or data collection practices of these independent groups.
We are excited to continue building the next chapter of RBN together with you.
RBN has officially launched the new RBN LinkedIn page:

We warmly invite fellow Rafflesians and friends of the community to follow the official page and support our upcoming initiatives and events.
Thank you for your continued support of ORA and RBN.
