We believe that a listing on the SGX Mainboard will further enhance our brand image and recognition, and provide us with a platform to expand our business internationally, especially with a focus on Southeast Asia. We are familiar with the Singapore market, having been previously involved in two tenders conducted by the National Environment Agency in Singapore.
We have an established track record of safe, efficient and environmentally sustainable operations, delivering valuable economic and environmental benefits as we convert waste into power. We intend to leverage on our reach and extensive network to enhance our future growth, technical expertise and research and development capabilities, allowing us to innovate and adapt to the demands of the WTE industry.”
