In March 2024, Kazakhstan was hit by a flood rarely seen in 80 years, which brought great difficulties to the lives of local residents and caused serious losses to many bus operators and institutions. As an enterprise dedicated to social responsibility, Yutong provided assistance for the disaster area promptly.
When the flood raged in Kazakhstan, Yutong quickly organized a rescue team. To alleviate the pressure on disaster-affected areas, Yutong provided necessities for residents and key components for buses. Yutong donated basic living materials, including drinking water, instant noodles and biscuits to ensure that the bus operators could get through the difficulties. It also provided free component replacement services for the affected vehicles to ensure the smooth production resumption of customers' vehicles after the disaster and support the rapid recovery of public transportation.
Yutong has built a factory with QazTehna, eight service stations and one spare parts warehouse in Kazakhstan. Its products cover transportation, service and training networks of major cities. Every year, it can provide convenient transportation for more than 2 million people in Kazakhstan and create jobs for more than 5,000 people. Yutong will always be committed to leading the upgrading of local green transportation in Kazakhstan and the improvement of public travel safety, to achieve a win-win situation in improving people's livelihood and economic development.
Yutong's assistance in Kazakhstan is not only an actual support to the local residents, but also a concrete manifestation of Yutong fulfilling its corporate social responsibility. In light of the disaster, Yutong's prompt actions show its sense of responsibility. In the future, Yutong will continue to pay attention to the dynamics of disaster areas and actively fulfil its corporate social responsibility to bring more hope and strength to the reconstruction of disaster areas and people's lives.
