As a matter of fact, the Company is deemed a “public body” under the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance (Cap. 201) to reflect the nature of the GETS services and the Company’s market position as a major service provider with a licence granted by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Government”) in running important public functions. In this regard, Senior Management and directors of the Company who will likely be regarded as “public officials” for the purpose of the common law offence, have been advised on their various liabilities under the common law offence on “misconduct in public office”. For employees in general, in order to comply with Prevention of Bribery Ordinance (Cap. 201) and other relevant anti-corruption laws and regulations, the Company has adopted a Code of Ethics and Conduct (the “Code”) which is applicable to all employees of the Group. The Code which is subject to the review and comment by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (“ICAC”), provides the details about the liabilities as employees of a public body. All employees are required to read the Code and understand and observe them both in letter and in spirit at all times. They must observe the prescribed standards of behavior when performing duties at work. The Code addresses, inter alia, the following key areas: – Proprietary and Confidential Information – Conflict of Interest – Prevention of Bribery – Gifts, Gratuities, Hospitality – Notification of Suspected Corrupt Conduct – Personal and Private Dealings From time to time, the Company invited ICAC to conduct anti-corruption talk to our new staff. Specifically a training session on “Ethics in Practice: Anti-corruption Requirements for Board of Directors of Tradelink Electronic Commerce Limited” was delivered by ICAC officer to all our Directors.
