Here in Singapore, which is strategically located at the crossroads of Asia Pacific region and a gateway to the regional as well as international market, we have embraced more important roles and functions, to support our group companies' backend activities in the region.
We grow in tandem with Singapore's development.
As the Singapore branch office celebrates our 65th year anniversary in year 2020, a wide spectrum of our activities have grown in tandem with the rapid development of Singapore. We are fortunate to have been able to contribute to the development of Singapore, through various important infrastructure projects, such as power generation plants, incineration plant and LRT lines. Capitalising on our extensive global network, we are also forging partnerships with Singapore-based companies and various stakeholders to identify new business opportunities in Singapore as well as the emerging markets in the region.
We embrace environmental and social sustainability.
Moving forward, we will continue to add Environmental and Social values by addressing the key sustainability issues through our business activities. We are working with our partners on the joint development of a sustainable hydrogen economy in Singapore as well as exploring innovative solutions to decarbonise our businesses and supply chains. In addition, we actively participate in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities by contributing to the fields of education, arts & culture and environment in Singapore with our past and present support to institutions such as Singapore's National Gallery, Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum, ISEAS–Yusof Ishak Institute, Gardens by the Bay etc. In line with our Corporate Philosophy of "Corporate Responsibility to Society", our goal is to contribute to the continuous advancement of society while raising consolidated corporate value, empowering and developing the expertise of our employees.
We embrace the new digital transformation.
As Singapore embarks on its digital transformation towards a Smart and Sustainable Economy, we are also digitising our business operations to improve efficiency and generate more value for our customers and partners.
We overcome new challenges and seize new opportunities.
The world is constantly changing and the evolving business environment brings new challenges and opportunities for the economy and our business. We look forward to taking on new challenges and seizing new opportunities in the future with the continued support and blessings of our customers and business partners. Together, I hope that we will continue to contribute to the local community, create economic, societal and environmental values to Singapore and beyond.
