Materiality Assessment

During the year, the stakeholders’ opinions collected were reviewed and

assessed. 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 Emission, 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. 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.

Environmental

The Company has implemented several environmental policies to protect

the environment. We have been running and will continue to run our

business in a responsible manner and minimize environmental pollution.

The Company takes actions in daily operations to reduce environmental

impact such as using LED lamps, reminding staff of turning off lights

and air-conditioning when not in use or out of office, keeping air-

conditioning at 25˚C, posting internal posters on saving water, installing

tap water controllers to limit the water flow and speed to save water

consumption, using e-forms to reduce use of paper and installing

recycling bins for metals, plastics and waste paper collections in office.

Besides, the Company produces corporate stationeries, reports and

souvenirs made by environment-friendly materials, uses recycled papers

and toners, and also adopts green dish in Company Annual Dinner to

raise employees’ awareness of efficient use of resources and

conservation of the environment. The Company is willing to support or

collaborate with organizations which promote environmental protection.

All these policies aim at not only environmental protection but also cost-

saving for the Company.
