ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE REPORT
MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
I am pleased to present Hong Kong Ferry (Holdings) Company Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries' ("Hong Kong Ferry Group") Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") Report. It has been produced with reference to the ESG Reporting Guide of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (“HKEx”).
At Hong Kong Ferry Group, we strive not only to generate value for our shareholders, but also to operate in a way that addresses any social and environmental concerns that our stakeholders might have. To realise this vision, sustainability is embedded in our operations, from property development and investment, to operation of the Shipyard and Harbour Cruise - Bauhinia, amongst
others.
Whilst we make positive economic and social contributions to society, we are mindful of managing the environmental impacts arising from our operations. With comprehensive environmental policies and management strategies in place, along with various initiatives to lower our emissions, we endeavour to contribute to Hong Kong's grand vision of transitioning to a low carbon society.
This would not be possible without the hard work of our staff. Therefore, the well-being of our staff is of great importance to us. We engage and invest in our people, understanding that they hold the key to the Company's long term prosperity.
Looking forward, sustainability shall remain an important pillar which supports Hong Kong Ferry Group's growth. We believe that business opportunities and challenges should be viewed through the lens of sustainability in the long term, as our investors are increasingly keen to know the social and economic performance of Hong Kong Ferry Group. By committing ourselves to sustainability and fostering open dialogue with our stakeholders, our corporate reputation will improve and so will our ability to deliver long term value beyond financial return, leading to the sustainable growth of our business.
