Our Green Performance Pledge (“GPP”) is a performance- based, landlord-tenant collaboration towards shared sustainability goals. The GPP guides companies to operate sustainably across entire tenancy cycle, from goal setting and action planning, to fit- out, operations, and results. Since the launch of the pilot in August 2021, over 21% of office tenants from our Hong Kong portfolios have signed up. And we aim to engage 50% of office tenants in our wholly-owned portfolios in Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland by 2025. As the saying goes, if you want to go far, go together.
