[contextly_sidebar id=”cyRkNo0UmZtKaMZbYfJzY3h4Y4lLz3GK”]Dr Joseph Siaw Agyepong said the Corporate Compliance Programme has brought about effective checks and balances through the introduction of corporate code of ethics and integrity policies and procedures which now which he said remain \u201ca seal of all our operations across Africa and the International community.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Dr Agyepong, it is a characteristic of most company\u2019s all over the world to face trials, but it is the structures and systems such companies put in place that determine whether or not they will survive.<\/p>\n
\u201cAmongst the world\u2019s greatest human rights activist Martin Luther King Jr once said the ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands in times of challenges and controversy,\u201d Dr. Agyepong said adding that \u201cZoomlion\u2019s resolve to overcome the challenge is what has brought us this pleasant outcome. The company took the right steps and thankfully it has paid off.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am eternally grateful to God, the selfless and dedicated management and staff of Zoomlion, the Government and people of Ghana and all our well-wishers for their support during the difficult times,\u201d the Executive Chairman added.<\/p>\n
