A2: Thanks to nationwide relief policies and care we received from government at all levels and thanks to our strong business continuity plan, MDLZ China business is coming back and showing strong signals we can continue to deliver strong growth in China.

We are dedicated to the Chinese market, and will continue to invest in China's market, our brands and our people.
