Solar industry analysts from Credit Suisse, CICC, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, JP Morgan and seven institutional investors joined the in-person tour of the Company’s state-of-the-art facilities. Journalists from various media including Bloomberg, Financial Times and China’s Global Times were also present.

“We have always been transparent and welcoming to visitors to our Xinjiang facilities,” commented Mr. Longgen Zhang, Chief Executive Officer of Daqo. “As stated repeatedly, we do not condone the use of forced labor under any circumstances. Furthermore, our visitors were able to see that our chemical process, which is highly automated, digitalized, technology-intensive, is not conducive to employing unskilled labor. Our visitors today were able to take away direct impressions of our facility as well as the quality of its management and workforce.”
