SECTION 2: OUR STRATEGIC CONTEXT 74 WHY IT MATTERS TO US We recognise that ineffective water management in our operations can impact stakeholders, the environment and our business, especially during water scarcity caused by escalating climate change impacts. Water is primarily used at our offices and retail outlets for cleaning and cooking. Currently, none of our operations are in water-stressed areas, nor do we share resources with local communities. We only utilise municipal water supply sources and do not extract from surface or ground sources. While our operations do not consume large amounts of water, we remain committed to maintaining efficient sanitation systems to prevent wastage and educating employees on water conservation importance and responsible waste disposal to avoid contaminating waterways. We also aim to enhance stakeholder awareness of water-related impacts. KEY STRATEGIES We are adopting three key strategies to enhance our water use and conservation practices. 1 Efficient Water Use 2 Water Use Governance 3 Water Resource Protection We strive to cultivate responsible water consumption habits among employees, maintain efficient water systems and properly dispose of harmful substances to prevent waterway contamination. We commit to establishing proper governance in water management by aligning practices with water consumption policies, conducting risk assessments and collecting and reporting data to monitor consumption and disclose management impacts. We aim to partner with waterrelated organisations to advocate for conservation and protect natural water resources. The Group is committed to conserving water resources and utilising them responsibly and sustainably. EFFICIENT WATER USE Link to UN SDGs SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT
