Q1)What are big companies doing in order to be more socially responsible?


They are not cutting down on their Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) programmes. In fact, some companies have even stepped up their efforts which is according to CSR Asia, a Hong Kong-based firm which aims to promote good corporate citizenship in this region. Besides this, communication's group Sing Tel's CSR programme has divided into four quadrants which it includes the Community in which supports initiatives focusing on youth and education. Environment, which aims to reduce carbon emissions and cut down on paper usage.


Q2)How important it is to be socially responsible? And do you think it is still possible to make a social impact during the recession?

My answer would be 100% yes because if everyone in this Earth, not just the companies do their job like cutting down on the usage of paper, replant the trees that we had destroyed, donate money to the poor and the needy, taking part in the Earth Day which helps to reduce the amount of electricity used, then I think that this would make a lot of difference to this world than the latter. Others may think this is so useless but they don't know that by doing this we could actually cure this world that is in tragedy like global warming. While the number of retrenchment is increasing, we must all do our job and help to solve this problem. Besides this, there many more catastrophes that we should solve like economy crisis and financial problems.If we do this everyday, i'm sure that everyday things will slowly get better and better.
