No Hong Kong profits tax has been provided for in the three months 
ended 31 March, 2003 as there was no assessable profit arising 
in or derived from Hong Kong during the period (2002:Nil).

PRC income tax is provided at the rates applicable to enterprises 
in the PRC on the income for statutory reporting purposes, adjusted
for income and expenses items which are not assessable or 
deductible for income tax purposes based on existing PRC income 
tax regulations, practices and interpretation thereof.

Pursuant to the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning Foreign 
Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and various local 
income tax laws (the :Income Tax Laws;), joint venture companies 
are subject to the statutory income tax rate of 33% (30% state 
income taxes plus 3% local income taxes) unless the enterprise
is qualified as a :High and New Technology Enterprise; or located
in specially designated regions or cities for which more favorable 
effective tax rates apply.  The Group・s principal operating 
subsidiaries are qualified as :High and New Technology 
Enterprises; for which a preferential tax rate of 15% applies and 
one subsidiary is entitled to an income tax exemption for two years 
commencing from the first profitable year (after deducting losses 
carried forward), and a 50% reduction for the succeeding three 
years.  Those Foreign Investment Enterprises are qualified as 
:High and New Technology Enterprises;, they can extend three more 
years for 50% tax reduction, but the minimum tax rate should not
be lower than 10%

As of 31 March, 2003, the Group・s principal operating subsidiaries 
are subject to income tax rate of 10% (2002:7.5%-10%).

There are no material potential deferred tax liabilities for which 
provision has not been made (2002:Nil).

(4) Dividends 
The Board does not recommend the payment of an interim dividend 
for the three months ended 31 March, 2003 (2002: Nil).

(5) Earnings per share
The calculation of the basic earnings per share is based
on net profit attributable to shareholders for the 
three months ended 31 March, 2003 of HK$20,274,000(three
months ended 31 March, 2002:HK$12,154,000) and the weighted 
average of 330,933,333 (2002:300,000,000) ordinary shares 
in issued during the period.  

The diluted earnings per share amount for the period is 
based on net profit attributable to shareholders for the
period of HK$20,274,000 (2002:HK$12,154,000) and interest of
HK$98,280 (2002: Nil) on convertible bonds and 369,505,836
(2002: 319,897,611) ordinary shares which was the weighted average 
number of ordinary shares in issue during the period plus the 
weighted average number of 11,204,082 (2002: 19,897,611) ordinary 
shares deemed to be issued at average fair value if all outstanding
options were exercised during the period and the weighted average 
of 27,368,421 (2002: Nil) ordinary shares assumed to have been 
issued at no consideration on the deemed exercise of all 
convertible bonds during the period.
