In order to publicize anti-corruption policies and related procedures, the Department of Ethics and Ethics Offices of all units involved enabled the Company's employees to understand relevant anti-corruption regulations and make anti-corruption efforts by multi-advocacy methods such as organizing the relevant anti-corruption education and training, holding a workshop of manufacturers, inviting experts and scholars to give special lectures, issuing and disseminating documents and using electronic information equipment for the internet advocacy and questionnaire surveys.
