<h1 style="text-align: center;">A Day with Food Angel!</h1>
 
Our team has spent an amazing day at Food Angel last Friday preparing and sorting veggies that will be cooked as nutritious meals and distributed to the needy. The activity was a unique experience to gain a better understanding of food waste and poverty issues in Hong Kong through the process of rescuing edible surplus food. Thank you to Food Angel for giving us this opportunity to contribute to the community and foster our team spirit through volunteerism!

Being an important tradition during this festival, this year, vegan rice dumplings made by OmniPork have been gifted to our staff, as a part of our commitment towards sustainability.

Our company’s reward trip is finally back after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic! 
 
We recently concluded an amazing company reward trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand for our PRC offices employees.

World Ocean Day is an annual event with the purpose of raising awareness about the importance of the ocean and the urgent need to protect it. In 2023, the focus is on the global commitment known as the 30x30 Actions, which aims to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030. The ocean covers over 70% of the Earth's surface and plays a critical role in regulating the climate and supporting marine life.
 
The 30x30 Actions have been endorsed by world leaders and involve the establishment of marine protected areas and the promotion of sustainable ocean management practices worldwide. However, protecting the ocean is not solely the responsibility of governments. Each individual can contribute to this global movement by taking simple actions in their daily lives. These actions include reducing the use of single-use plastics, choosing sustainable seafood options, avoiding shark fins, conserving water, and reducing our carbon footprint.
 
The ocean is an essential component of our planet's ecosystem, and its health and sustainability are intrinsically linked to our well-being. By safeguarding marine ecosystems and preserving biodiversity, we can ensure the long-term viability of our planet.
 
<h2 style="text-align: center;">One Ocean, One Climate, One Future, together!</h2>

World Ocean Day 2023

Dedicated to fostering a healthy workplace, we recently organized a workplace wellness workshop and a complimentary on-site health checkup at our Hong Kong and Shanghai offices respectively.

The wellness workshop focused on gentle body stretch, mindfulness practices, simple yoga and breathwork. These relaxing exercises helped our employees release tension and alleviate the effects of prolonged sitting. We are glad that they felt their stress and anxiety melt away after these simple yet rejuvenating mind-body practices!

Meanwhile, in collaboration with a professional health center, the three-day comprehensive health consultations also enabled our Shanghai staff to identify any health issues and address any health concerns they may have.
