This strategy is aimed at ensuring that SD is integrated into every facet of our business, so it is vital that everyone at Swire Properties not only understands what our strategy is about, but also feels empowered to contribute to what we are trying to achieve. Our employees are critical to the implementation of the strategy and it has been heartening to see them getting involved at every level. I am particularly proud of the progress we are making to integrate SD throughout our business by breaking down geographic and functional silos. We have incorporated SD focus areas directly into our annual budget-planning processes and, most importantly, we are putting SD key performance indicators into action.
