Testimonies from airports participants: • “The survey is useful as it helps to provide new opportunity for improvement. For the report, it provides overview of the hot topics that most airports focusing on, and at the same time there are areas that required from us more attention as airport authorities such as biodiversity and ground transportation.” Rula Dawood, Environment, Health and Safety Manager, Airport International Group-Queen Alia International Airport-Jordan • “Fantastic, this is exactly the information I need to describe our Airport’s performance in comparison with our peers.” Anonymous • “Our airport found the section comparing Management Priorities particularly useful.” Anonymous The Chair of ACI Asia-Pacific Regional Environment Committee (REC), Mr. Jakrapop Charatsri, Airports of Thailand PLC. Said, “The Committee has made decision to keep the confidential rules and to link the Green Airports Recognition eligibility to the Survey last year. We hope this has contributed to encourage more airports to share their airport environmental best practices!” Ms. Patti Chau, Regional Director of ACI Asia-Pacific said, “Environmental stewardship for airports is no longer a local compliance issue. It is a norm for permission to grow! It is important for airports in our region to learn from each other and seek improvement through the survey results. We encourage more airports to support these initiatives for the benefits of all our airports in the Asia-Pacific region.” To participate in the next survey, please contact: Mr. Ken Lau, Senior Manager - Technical Affairs ken@aci-asiapac.aero or visit our Environmental Survey website: http://www.aci-asiapac.aero/services/main/29/
