Today we are an international player in the energy and chemicals  sectors, and a preferred technology partner. Sasol’s liquid fuels and chemicals products are used in almost every sphere of life. Sasol is also a major contributor to the development of people  and the improvement of socioeconomic conditions in the  countries in which we operate. In the last ten years,  we have made significant strides in our commitment to  environmental sustainability, premised on our innovation  and technology leadership. As we emerge from the economic turmoil of the last 18 months,  we are focused and energised. We have scrutinised our assets  and interrogated our plans for the future. We are leaner and  more flexible, and we understand what we have to do to  transform and grow, profitably and sustainably. We have the people and the technology, the experience  and the innovative spirit to reach new frontiers, to meet  the challenges of the future, and to grow our business  significantly beyond where it is today. annual review 2010 1
