August 22, 2022

TOKYO-Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL; President & CEO: Takeshi Hashimoto) today announces its opening of a permanent website (Mauritius Website) featuring the MOL Group's activities to protect and restore the natural environment in the Republic of Mauritius.

MOL has been engaging in natural environmental protection and social contribution activities in Mauritius since the July 2020 grounding of one of its chartered vessels, which resulted in a serious oil spill. In June 2021, it established the "MOL Charitable Trust" (Note 1) in Mauritius to promote sustainability measures, and since then has worked closely with local communities on a range of support programs. And in November 2021 it established an authorized public trust called the "MOL Mauritius International Fund for Natural Environment Recovery and Sustainability" (Note 2) in Japan, supporting long-term and large-scale projects.

The new Mauritius Website outlines these two funds and the projects they support, and features the documentary video called "Mauritius Blue NOU AVEC ZOT - We're with You," which summarizes MOL's initiatives in Mauritius after July 2020. Please visit the website and view this informative video!

MOL will continue to engage in support measures that benefit local communities in Mauritius, and works to keep all stakeholders informed about its activities there.
