• Strategic focus and future orientation

Key observations:

Through narrative and KPIs, FarEasTone clearly describes the main activities undertaken to achieve its objectives and the results obtained against each of its four strategic pillars (“Go Prosperous”, “Go Innovative”, “Go Caring” and “Go Inclusive”). This element of its 2015 Corporate Social Responsibility Report helps to answer the questions: “Where does the organization want to go and how does it  intend to get there?” and “To what extent has the organization achieved its strategic objectives for the period and what are its outcomes in terms of effects on the capitals ?” (International <IR> Framework, paras. 4E and 4F). The report also points out the relationships with key stakeholders (through inclusion of the materiality analysis), how the organization has responded to their needs and the linkages between the past and current performance as well as the future outlook (International <IR> Framework, para. 4.31).
