LETTER FROM THE BOARD

GENERAL INFORMATION

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in the appendices to this circular. The English text of this circular shall prevail over the Chinese text.

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

This circular includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in this circular and confirm, having made all reasonable enquiries that to the best of their knowledge and belief, there are no other facts the omission of which would make any statement herein misleading.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Appendix I serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information as to the proposed Repurchase Mandate.

1. LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing is on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which the securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognized by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong and the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the Listing Rules provide that the shares of such company must be fully paid up and all repurchase of shares by such company must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of shareholders, either by way of a general repurchase mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.

2. THE GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 5,449,473,140 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 544,947,314 Shares, which represents 10% of the Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolution.

3. REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase the Shares on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares may be listed and such exchange is recognized by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong and the Stock Exchange. Share repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing the Company's securities, the Company may only apply funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Articles and the Companies Law. The laws of the Cayman Islands provide that any repurchases may be made out of funds which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose, or if so authorized by the Articles and subject to the Companies Law, out of capital. Any premium on a repurchase may be made out of funds which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the Company's share premium account, or if so authorized by the Articles and subject to the Companies Law, out of capital. It is envisaged that the funds required for any repurchase of the Shares would be derived from the capital paid up on the Shares being repurchased and from the distributable profits of the Company.

- 8 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Taking into account the current working capital position of the Company, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate was to be exercised in full, it will not have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company as reflected in the latest audited financial statements of the Company. The Directors do not intend to make any repurchases to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing position of the Company.

5. SHARE PRICES

The Shares are trading on the Stock Exchange and the highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have been traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the following months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date are as follows:

6. THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

If a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases when the Company exercises its powers to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 or Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge of the Directors, our controlling shareholder (as defined under the Listing Rules), Mr. Liu Zhongtian, controls the exercise of approximately 74.16% voting rights in the general meeting of the Company.

- 9 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

In the event that the Directors should exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the interest held by Mr. Liu Zhongtian and his close associates would increase to approximately 82.40% voting rights in the general meeting of the Company. Such increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 or Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors will not exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that will result in the number of Shares in the hands of public falling below the minimum percentage of 25% prescribed in the Listing Rules.

7. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company did not purchase any of its Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

8. GENERAL

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will only exercise the power of the Company to make repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Articles, the Listing Rules and applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

No core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company nor has any such core connected person undertaken not to sell any Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
