It encourages us to continue strengthening our sustainability efforts in line with international standards. We recognise that our progress has been made possible by the dedication of our colleagues and the support of our business partners and communities, enabling us to implement the Group's sustainability strategy. In response to the country's emphasis on accelerating the comprehensive green transformation of the economy and society, as highlighted in the 15th Five-Year Plan, we also hope to learn from it and explore how we can better align our business accordingly, promoting the integration of international experience with local practices and working together to build communities that are lower in carbon and more liveable. Looking ahead, we will continue to learn with humility and work collaboratively with our stakeholders to uphold our corporate culture and core values as we make steady progress on our sustainability journey.'
