EPCA STRATEGY AND MISSION 9 2. REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS EPCA ANNUAL REPORT 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Dear Reader, Throughout the year 2014, we witnessed how much and how fast the development of shale gas has continued to transform the competitiveness of the US economy and the US chemical industry. We also faced a dramatic drop in the prices of oil and gas, caused by lower than expected growth in world demand for these commodities, combined with the continued boom in shale hydrocarbon production in the United States. This situation culminated in the November 2014 decision of certain OPEC countries to go for market share instead of trying to halt the decline in oil prices through a cut-back in production. TOM CROTTY EPCA President gainst this background of oil The competiveness of the chemical The issue of the need for increased price volatility and geopolitical industry and, especially, the situation gender and diversity inclusion was A uncertainty, EPCA addressed, as in Europe were addressed during raised during the first EPCA Diversity key issues in 2014, the following 2 the 48th Annual Meeting in Vienna 4 Matters workshop at the 48th Annual topics: from 4 to 8 October 2014.

LOCAL ATTRACTIONS 5. SOCIAL PROGRAMS 6. ACCOMMODATION SOUTH KOREA AS THE HOST FOR IMMAA The Korean peninsula extends southward from the northeastern part of the Asian continent and is located between China, Japan, and Russia. As a homogeneous ethnic group with its own language, culture, and customs, the country has a long history and proud tradition. Republic of Korea or commonly referred to as “South Korea” occupies the southern half of the Korean peninsula and is a highly developed country with prominent presence on the world stage. Since the rapid economic growth in the 1960s and modernization efforts in the 1980s, the success of the “Miracle on the Han River” has created an interesting juxtaposition. South Korea is a place where tradition and technology are equally endorsed; where skyscrapers overlook ancient palaces; and where the vibrant place of life is offset by the tranquility of nature. The mountainous topography and three different oceans surrounding each border offers unique sceneries and a colorful heritage that differs from other neighboring countries. Remains of historic highlights are seen in various fortresses, temples, and palaces of which some are registered as UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites. South Korea offers visitors an incredibly diverse range of experiences. Besides historical and natural landmarks, Korea’s entertainment and culture is also a new attraction for global visitors. Tourists are able to immerse themselves into the home of Hallyu or the “Korean Wave” by experiencing Korean culture, visiting drama or movie settings, and meeting famous Korean celebrities.
