William Ma, Group Managing Director of KLN, said, “We are grateful to be selected as the winner of the two ESG Awards, reaffirming our commitment to upholding the highest ESG governance standards across countries and operations. KLN prides itself on being a socially responsible global company, and has always developed its business strategies and operations in accordance with the best corporate governance practices, while offering care and assistance to the communities it serves. Since the onset of the pandemic in early 2020, KLN has been providing a wide range of support to various humanitarian programmes, facilitating the rapid response to disaster and emergency situations. We believe the recognition we received from the ESG Awards will drive us to go one step further in environmental sustainability and corporate social responsibility, achieving business growth while continuing to contribute to a global future.”

The HKET Award was newly inaugurated by the Hong Kong Economic Times, a leading local financial daily, as a part of its Excellent ESG Recognition Scheme. Themed “A New Normal for ESG”, the programme this year focuses on honouring companies for their ability to navigate through uncertainties and adapt to emerging changes, based on the idea that companies with higher ESG scores often demonstrate greater resilience to adversity.

The Bloomberg Awards were established in 2019 by international business publication Bloomberg Businessweek/Chinese Edition in collaboration with Deloitte. By rewarding Hong Kong-listed companies for their remarkable ESG performance, the Bloomberg Awards aim to encourage enterprises to strategically adopt ESG practices, in order to foster a sustainable business culture and create a positive impact on the environment and society.
