POTENTIAL IMPACT ARISING FROM THE RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In 2004, the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the " HKICPA") issued a number of new or revised Hong Kong Accounting Standards ("HKASs") and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs") (herein collectively referred to as "new HKFRSs") which are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January, 2005. The Company has not early adopted these new HKFRSs in the financial statements for the year ended 31st December 2004. The Company has considered these new HKFRSs but does not expect that the issuance of these HKFRSs will have a material effect on how the results of operations and financial position of the Company are prepared and presented. 3.
