CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
The Group is aware of the effects of its operations and the role it plays in preserving the environment. The Group strives to encourage a
more environmentally responsible culture, and has adopted various measures. During FY2015, the measures that were already in place
included the use of LED lights for the roof terrace and office lobby, and the use of paint materials that are environmentally preferred as
opposed to those that are not. The entire air conditioning system in International Building was replaced with environmentally friendly ones
that consume less energy. The Group also issues circulars to encourage the tenants of The Concourse and International Building to be
environmentally friendly, including engaging in paper recycling and reducing the unnecessary use of paper.
In March 2015, the Group participated in the World Wide Fund for Nature Earth Hour initiative by turning off the facade and non-essential
lights through the night.
Hong Fok Land Ltd, a subsidiary company, had converted the roof terraces of The Concourse into roof gardens with landscape installation,
and The Concourse was subsequently admitted into the Skyrise Greenery Incentive Scheme introduced by the National Parks Board.
The Building and Construction Authority has awarded the BCA Green Mark Platinum award for The Concourse and the BCA Green Mark
Gold Plus award for International Building.
The Group is committed to continue identifying opportunities to contribute to environmental sustainability.
