Corporate Governance
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.

To implement the corporate governance and upgrade the function of the Board of Directors, we establish performance goals to enhance the efficiency of the Board of Directors. The Company adopted the “Cheng Loong Corp. Regulations on Performance Evaluation of the Board of Directors” at the 5th meeting of the 17th Board of Directors on December 25, 2019. The performance evaluation of the CLC Board of Directors shall be implemented every year. External performance evaluation shall be implemented by a third-party professional institution or a team formed by external experts and scholars at least once every three years. The internal and external performance evaluation of the Board of Directors shall be completed prior to the termination of the first quarter next year. We enhance the function of the Board of Directors by forming the Board with multiple members and appointing a chief corporate governance officer.
