Overview of business during the reporting period In 2021, the market of logistics in China reached 335.2 trillion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 9.2% calculated at comparable prices and an average annual growth of 6.2% in two years. The growth rate returned to the average level of normal years. The structure of logistics demand changes synchronously with the adjustment of economic structure and industrial upgrading. Overall, there was industrial logistics made teady progress, international import logistics encounted considerable downward pressure, and consumption logistics obtained teady growth. Industrial upgrading creadted increasing number of high-tech manufacturing logistics demand, which presented a growing trend and leading effect. According to hazardous Chemical Logistics Branch of China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing, the market of the national chemical logistics industry will exceed 2 trillion yuan by the end of 2021, and the third-party chemical logistics take 40%, meaning 800 billion yuan. Since the explosion of Wenling tank truck and the Lebanese port incident on June 13, 2020, the government has further strictly controlled and supervised the safe operation of dangerous goods. The market was highly tightening and strictly controlled. In July 2020, the Office of the Security Commission of The State Council held an meeting, which assigned safety improvement task to chemical parks and hazardous chemical enterprises, and initiated the special rectification work of illegal "small chemical industry".From July 1 to December 31, local public security and traffic control departments carried out a series of traffic safety special rectification actions of hazardous chemicals transport. In September 2020, the Security and Commission Office of The State Council deployed the third round of special investigations on dangerous chemical safety risks and hidden dangers. At the same time of the steady development of industry supervision, and the market is moving towards the clean-up stage of compliance. While steadily pushibging the industry supervision, security control is put in the first place and the market is moving towards the compliance cleaning stage. On September 22, 2020, at the seventy-fifth Session of the United Nations General Assembly, the Chinese government proposed that "China will enhance its national contribution, adopt more effective policies and measures, strive for the peak of carbon dioxide emissions by 2030, and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060." On March 5, 2021, in the 2021 Government work report of The State Council, Premier Li Keqiang emphasized the solid efforts to peak carbon emissions and neutralize, carbon emissions, formulation of action plan to peak carbon emissions by 2030, and optimization of industrial structure and energy structure. The promotion of carbon neutrality, as another development requirement of environmental protection, will accelerate the adjustment of transportation structure in chemical logistics industry from road to rail and water, and promote the development of multimodal transportation. At the same time, this transformation will introduce the logistics demand related to LNG, new energy and other clean energy, and brings the development opportunities for hazardous waste discharge and disposal related fields of chemical enterprises. China's initiative to jointly build the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road (hereinafter referred to as the Belt and Road) has attracted great attention from the international community and received positive response from many countries. The Belt and Road initiative aims to enhance coordination of economy and policy among countries, improve connectivity, and carry out bilateral, multilateral and close cooperations with high quality in a larger scope. It will enable countries to achieve shared benefits through consultation and collaboration and jointly build a new system of global economic governance. The proposal and implementation of the "Belt and Road" will promote the trade of chemicals in the countries along the "Belt and Road", thus bringing broad development space to the global chemical logistics industry. As the safety and environmental supervision requirements becoming stricter, which pushes downstream chemical enterprises moving from the city into industrial park, chemical enterprises are increasingly demanding for the specialization and safety of logistics. Comprehensive chemical enterprises prefer to choose professional third-party logistics service providers. At the same time, small and non-standard chemical enterprises were gradually phased out by the supervision and operating pressure. The industry concentration is expected to improve rapidly. 2.1 Business Scope Milkyway is a leading chemical supply chain service provider in China, which provides one-stop integrated logistics services with freight forwarding, warehousing and transportation as its core business.
