Remarks: 1. Principal Accounting Policies and Basis of Preparation The Group's unaudited consolidated results have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and comply with accounting standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (?HKICPA'). They are prepared under the historical cost convention and comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of GEM Listing Rules. In 2004, the HKICPA issued a number of new or revised Hong Kong Accounting Standards ("new HKAS") and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("new HKFRSs") which are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2005. The adoption of the new HKFRSs, has results in the change in the Group's accounting policies for goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries and associates. In prior years, goodwill on aquisition of subsidiaries and associates was carried at cost and amortised over its estimated useful life. Following the adoption of new HKAS and HKFRSs, goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries and associates is carried at cost and reviewed for impairment annually. Impairment, if any, is charged to the profit and loss account. This change in accounting policy has no material effect on the Group.
