Remarks:

1. Basis of presentation and comparative figures

The Group has adopted for the following new and revised Statements of 
Standard Accounting Practice (SSAPs) issued by the Hong Kong Society of 
Accountants in advance of its effective date in preparation of the 
financial statements for the current year.

        The Group has adopted the following SSAPs during the year.

        SSAP 1 (Revised)        Presentation of Financial Statements
        SSAP 11 (Revised)       Foreign Currency Translation
        SSAP 15 (Revised)       Cash Flow Statements
        SSAP 34			Employee Benefits 
        
The adoption of these new and revised standards has resulted in a change 
in the format of presentation of the cash flow statement, an inclusion of 
a statement of changes in equity and no material effect on the results for 
the current or prior year.  Accordingly, no prior year adjustment has been 
required.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors have given careful 
consideration to the future liquidity of the Group in light of its net 
current liabilities as at 30th November, 2002.  The directors are 
satisfied that the Group has access to sufficient funding and facilities 
to be able to meet in full its liabilities as they fall due for the 
foreseeable future.  Accordingly, the financial statements have been 
prepared on a going concern basis.

2.      Turnover

        Turnover represents the aggregate of the amounts received and 
receivable from sales of properties, property rental income and cosmetics 
goods sold to outside customers less returns.

3.      Segmental information

Hong Kong Profits Tax has been provided for at the rate of 16% on the 
estimated assessable profits for the year. Taxation on profits of 
associates arising outside Hong Kong has been provided for in accordance 
with the relevant local jurisdictions.  The taxation credit in 2001 
represented a reversal of provision made upon refund of tax paid in 
previous years at the final resolution of an outstanding tax dispute.

No provision for deferred taxation has been recognised in the financial 
statements as the amount involved is not significant.

Deferred tax has not been recognised in respect of the deficit arising on 
the revaluation of investment properties and investment securities as 
profits or losses arising on the disposal of these assets would not be 
assessable or allowable for tax purpose.  Accordingly, the revaluation 
does not constitute a timing difference for tax purpose.

10.     Loss per share

The calculation of the basic loss per share is based on the loss for the 
year of HK$264,994,000 (2001: HK$70,972,000) and on 959,899,416 (2001: 
959,899,416) ordinary shares in issue during the year.
