1.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Impact of recently issued Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("
HKFRSs")

The Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "HKICPA") has 
issued a number of new and revised Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards 
and Hong Kong Accounting Standards, herein collectively referred to as the 
"New HKFRSs", which are generally effective for accounting periods 
beginning on or after 1 January 2005.  The Group has not early adopted the 
New HKFRSs in the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2005.  
The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of the New 
HKFRSs but is not yet in a position to state whether the New HKFRSs would 
have a significant impact on its results of operations and financial 
position.

HKFRS 3 "Business Combinations" applies to accounting for business 
combinations for which the agreement date is on or after 1 January 2005.  
The Group did not have any business combinations during the year and, 
accordingly, this HKFRS has had no impact on these financial statements.

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong 
Financial Reporting Standards (which also include Statements of Standard 
Accounting Practice and Interpretations) issued by the HKICPA, accounting 
principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the disclosure requirements 
of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. They have been prepared under the 
historical cost convention, except for the periodic remeasurement of 
certain fixed assets and long term investments.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of 
the Company and its subsidiaries for the year ended 31 March 2005.  The 
results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are 
consolidated from or to their effective dates of acquisition or disposal, 
respectively.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances 
within the Group are eliminated on consolidation.

                                15,300          6,000

Proposed final - HK6 cents (2004: HK3.5 cents) per
ordinary share based on 427,000,000 (2004: 340,000,000)
shares in issue                 25,620          11,900

                                ======          ========

The proposed final dividend for the year is subject to the 
approval of the Company's shareholders at the forthcoming annual 
general meeting.


3.      EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the net profit 
attributable to shareholders for the year of HK$94,061,000 (2004: HK$32,
086,000), and the weighted average of 337,821,918 ordinary shares in issue 
(2004: 188,328,767 ordinary shares deemed to have been in issue) during 
the year.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended 31 March 
2005 is based on the net profit attributable to shareholders for the year 
of HK$94,061,000.  The weighted average number of ordinary shares used in 
the calculation is the 337,821,918 ordinary shares in issue during the 
year as used in the basic earnings per share calculation and the weighted 
average of 79,849,315 ordinary shares assumed to have been issued at no 
consideration on the deemed conversion of the outstanding convertible note 
since its date of issue to the date of conversion during the year.

A diluted earnings per share amount for the year ended 31 March 2004 has 
not been disclosed as no diluting events existed during that year.
