Remarks:
1. Adoption of Statements of Standard Accounting Practice
These unaudited consolidated condensed accounts are prepared in
accordance with Statement of Standard Accounting Practice ("SSAP") 25,
"Interim Financial Reporting", issued by the Hong Kong Society of
Accountants ("HKSA") and Appendix 16 of the Rules Governing the Listing
of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing
Rules").
The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the
preparation of these condensed accounts are consistent with those used in
the annual accounts for the year ended 31st December, 2002 except that
the Group has changed its accounting policy following its adoption of SSAP
12 "Income Taxes" issued by the HKSA which is effective for accounting
periods commencing on or after 1st January 2003.
The change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively so
that the comparative figures presented have been restated to conform to
the changed policy.
As a result of the adoption of the SSAP 12, the opening balance of
equity at 1st January 2002 and 2003 reduced by HK$52,185,000 and
HK$52,179,000 respectively which represent the
unprovided deferred tax liabilities. This change has resulted in an
increase in deferred tax liabilities at 31st December 2002 by
HK$21,546,000 and a decrease in investment in associated
company at 31st December 2002 by HK$30,633,000. The profit for the
six months ended 30th June 2002 has been increased by HK$13,000 and the
equity at that date has been reduced by HK$51,389,000.

3. Earnings/(loss) per share
(Loss)/earnings per share is calculated based on the loss attributable
to shareholders of the Group for the six months ended 30.6.2003 of
HK$2,043,000 (30.6.2002 : profit of HK$18,176,000) and 261,684,910 shares
(30.6.2002 : 261,684,910 shares) of the Company in issue during the
period.
No diluted (loss)/earnings per share has been presented for current
and prior periods because the exercise of the options have no dilutive
effect for those periods.
