What the accounts disclose
“Kanlungan’s policy on reserve is that any remaining funds at the end of the year are surpluses and go back to the Organisation's general fund, or, if appropriate, to designated funds for operational expenses. Some of the unrestricted funds will be reserved to pay the employer's statutory financial obligation in case of illness and/or redundancy of any staff and future pension obligations.” — page 8
