Taking into account the reporting principles as set out in the ESG Reporting Guide, the business nature and principal activity of the Company, the relevant information under the Social Areas of the ESG Guide, which is considered to be important to its investors and stakeholders, would be disclosed in details in this ESG Report. Information on the relevant policies adopted by the Company and how such policies comply with the relevant laws and regulations would also be disclosed. Given the fact that the Company is an e-commerce services company, the three aspects under the Environmental Area, namely Emissions, Use of Resources and the Environment and Natural Resources, are not considered material enough which need to be disclosed in accordance with the ESG Guide. The respective reasons are as follows: For Emissions, the Company’s operation is not involved in air and greenhouse gas emissions, discharges into water and land, and generation of hazardous and non-hazardous waste in significant quantities. There are no relevant laws and regulations that have significant impact on the Company regarding Emissions. Similarly, for Use of Resources, the Company’s operation is not involved in direct and/or indirect energy consumption (e.g. electricity, water and other raw materials) and water consumption in significant quantities. In addition, the Company’s operation is not involved in packaging materials used for finished products as the Company does not deliver tangible products. For Environment and Natural Resources, the Company considers its business nature and operation having no significant impact on environment and natural resources. Nevertheless, the Company understands the importance of environmental protection and undoubtedly supports it. In this regard, the Company constantly reminds its staff to protect the environment and use energy and resources effectively and efficiently by issuing policies and guidelines on the related subjects. In this ESG Report, we would voluntarily disclose the policies and practices which have been adopted by the Company with a view to conserving the environment.
