Stakeholder Engagement

Hon Chuan is committed to establishing a comprehensive stakeholder communication mechanism, enabling continuous improvement and realization of long-term development goals. To safeguard the interests of stakeholders, we provide diverse communication channels and ensure timely and transparent information disclosure. Beyond our official website, tailored information and communication channels are provided for various stakeholders. In 2023, we launched a dedicated ESG website for Hon Chuan International's sustainable development efforts. This initiative not only enhances communication efficiency between Hon Chuan and stakeholders but also improves the transparency, accuracy, and timeliness of information disclosure. The issues of concern, communication channels & frequency, and communication results in 2023 was reported to the Board of Directors on May 31, 2024.
