Sustainability Governance The Board is committed to embedding sustainability into the Group’s business strategies and operations. A holistic approach to business management, taking into consideration the economic, environmental and social (“EES”) risks and opportunities alongside financial implications, is being seen as a measure to generate long term benefits and business continuity. Our Executive Committee (“EXCO”) oversees the implementation of the Group’s sustainability approach, practices and performance according to EES criteria. In order to ensure that we have an inclusive and safe society, the EXCOempowers our business and functional units to regularly engagewithour stakeholders so that key risks and issues impacting our stakeholders are promptly addressed in our practices and business strategies. Sustainability related strategies and information are then collated from the respective business units/divisions and are reviewed and presented to the EXCO by the Strategic Management Committee (“SMC”). The EXCOwill then report key matters to the Board for further deliberation, if necessary. This approach ensures that the Group’s Core Philosophy of providing integrated ICT solutions that will contribute towards nation building may be realised.
