BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards and Hong Kong Accounting Standard ("new HKFRSs") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and applicable disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Growth Enterprise Market of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information are consistent with those used in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2004 except that the Group has changed certain of its accounting policies following its adoption of new HKFRSs which are effective for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2005. The changes to the Group's accounting policies and the effect of adopting these new HKFRSs are set out in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information for the three months ended 31 March 2005 approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 11 May 2005. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with those HKFRSs and interpretations issued and effective as at the time of preparing this information. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluation of financial assets which are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information in conformity with the new HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information include provision for doubtful debts, provision for taxation, provision for asset impairment and fair values of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. 2.
