Chief Executive Officer's Report

31 December 2021

Dear Shareholders,

This year was focused on commercialization and raising adequate equity fund to finance the development and commercialization of our new products.

For the past 2 years we have also been working hard to gain access to the US Capital market. This year, we succeeded to get A88 traded at the US OTCQB trade counter. In order to tap the major US Capital market, we are now working to uplift to the NASDAQ stock exchange.

Late last year we secured the support of a leading Investment Bank ( EF Hutton) to assist with uplifting us to the NASDAQ. We have also appointed two experienced US legal counsels to help us ensure NASDAQ uplifting success. We are working to uplift the Company in the near future subject to standard Q&A from the Securities and Exchange Commission, and other matters.

While preparing to list on NASDAQ, on-going internal equity fund raising program is helping us cover operating costs and to ready our products for commercial shipment.

Our new innovative satellite hybrid smart phone devices are aimed at both the growing satellite communication and the larger cellular smart phone mobile telecoms market segments.

We expect the satellite communication mobile device segment will hugely expand this year as market begins to realize the advantage of global telecom connectivity. This is evidenced by the huge investments during the last 3 years to expand dramatically existing satellite bandwidth.

We are pioneering innovative products to give consumers better product choices and at much lower cost to expand the satellite communication market. The growing satellite operators and existing terrestrial operators will look to us to provide them the devices they need to tap this fast-growing satellite bandwidth.

The increasing satellite bandwidth will rapidly contribute to lower pricing and mass adoption. Since we are providing unique hybrid satellite mobile devices with satellite and Android smart phone cellular connectivity, we have a unique market leadership advantage. We also support Digital Mobile Radio, making our new smart phones truly unique hybrid communicator devices capable of keeping users connected via any terrestrial or space communication service.

As we gain additional equity funding from our own on-going programs and from our Nasdaq uplifting, we will be able to take full advantage of the huge business opportunity we created with satellite hybrid mobile telecom devices that can straddle the growing satellite market and the huge cellular smart phone consumer and professional markets.

Yours sincerely,

Cheng Pheng Loi
