CLC takes the sincerity and trustworthiness as the operating philosophy and emphasizes stable operation and law-abiding governance. The Board of Directors is the highest governing unit of the Company. It is mainly in charge of supervising the management team for the operation and management of the Company. In addition to the complete organizational structure and compliance with the laws and regulations relevant to the business operation, we establish the Compensation Committee, Audit Committee, and Auditing Division under the Board of Directors to enhance the supervision and control functions. CLC improves the transparency of the management and protect the rights and interests of the employees and shareholders by upholding the implementation of a fair, just and open management system.
