P.57 "In the first half of 2019, the overall evaluation score was dropped by 9 points compared to 2018 with the introduction of a more sophisticated evaluation tool and global evaluation criteria. The ratio of high-risk group was increased as well. This can be utilized as an opportunity to increase the CSR capacity of partners to a global level.
