Remarks:

1. Basis of preparation and accounting policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements
of the Group have been prepared in accordance with Statement of
Standard Accounting Practice ("SSAP") 25 "Interim financial
reporting" issued by the Hong Kong Society of Accountants ("HKSA")
and the applicable disclosure requirements of the Rules Governing
the Listing of Securities on the Growth Enterprise Market of The
Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements
for the year ended 30th November 2002.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not
been audited by the Company's auditors, but have been reviewed by
the Company's audit committee.

The accounting policies and basis of preparation used in the
preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial
statements are consistent with those used in the Company's annual
financial statements for the year ended 30th November 2002, except
for the Group's adoption of the following new and revised SSAPs
issued by HKSA which are effective for accounting periods commencing
on or after 1st January 2002:

SSAP 11 (revised): Foreign currency translation
SSAP 34: Employee benefits

The changes to the Group's accounting policies and the effect of
adopting these new policies are set out below:

a. SSAP 11 (revised) "Foreign currency translation" prescribes
the basis for translation of foreign currency transactions
and financial statements. The adoption of this SSAP has
resulted in no change to the previously adopted accounting
policy for foreign currency translation.

b. SSAP 34 "Employee benefits" prescribes the recognition and
measurement criteria to apply to employee benefits together
with the required disclosures in respect thereof. The
adoption of this SSAP has resulted in no material change to
the previously adopted accounting treatments for employee
benefits.
