The founder of Formosa Plastics Group once said: "One person's hand can only hold so many things. But only when he/she lets go of everything are they able to obtain all that the world has to offer". He wantedto emphasize that only through continually serving one's fellow man canone truly make significant contributions.
On the surface an act of kindness may only seem like it benefitsthe recipient, but in fact the personengaged in serving others will get backeven more than the people who are beingserved. The more people that cancontribute, the greater the achievementswill be.
Therefore the founder of Formosa Plastics Group has always sought to not only allow the company to growbut also to work hard in serving thecommunity. During the 2009 Typhoon Morakot relief efforts we helped tolaunch a relief fund-raising campaign which raised money to donate to the assistance of residents in the affected areas rebuild their homes.
Another response to the trend of energy andreduction of carbon emissions was our sponsorship of the Taoyuan County Government's "Low-Carbon Living Exhibitions and Charity Hiking Activities." We believe that humanbeings are interdependent, living in the community the strong must help the week, and the rich must help the poor. We all need to do our part in our society andcountry.
At the Jinshing campuswe set up a "good neighbor group". They aredoing a good job in areas of factory environment, maintenance, and properly communicating with the community in order tomobilize their environmental volunteerteams. They also are continuously investingin the local neighborhood activities such astemple festivals, activities for theelderly, weddings and funerals, factory organized activities, etc. to establish rapport and peaceful relations with the local people.
Starting in 2007 wehave made large efforts to promote the Environmental Protection Volunteer Programat the Jinshing campus, which takes place onthe 1st morning of each month. All participants dress in green vests and sweeproads around the plant (including the roadby the factory gate, flood control walls,and the former factory door near the Nankansections) and the surrounding suburbs. Inaddition to improving the cleanliness of the environment, these activities allow thelocal residents to work together with ourcompany and employees in building a better environment.
In addition, we also are putting onevents to promote neighborhood projects, sothat nearby residents have a good environment to live in. Starting in 2003 webegan to adopt parks around our factoriesand commence in cleaning and beautifying projects to create a beautiful and clean environment.
