“Keeping pace with the demands of the new era, we will promote growth based on green management in a bid to become a socially responsible company.”
A green management committee with a representative director will also be chosen to head the new shipyard.
The shipyard will aim to develop new technologies to enhance energy efficiency while decreasing green house gas emissions by 30 percent.
