FUTURE PLANS

In order to expand the geographical coverage of the Group's operational network, the Directors intend to approach potential agents in markets such as the United States, countries in Asia, and countries in Europe. The Group intends to set up offices in Taiwan, Singapore, and the PRC before March 31, 2005. The Directors estimate the net proceeds from Placing and proceeds from the Pre-IPO investors will be sufficient to expand the Group's operational network.

The Group intends to expand it operational facilities through the acquisition of its own fleet of trucks and warehouses. The Group intends to acquire three trucks and approximately 2,000 sq. ft. of warehouse. The Directors believe that such expansion will strengthen the Group's competitive position and improve the Group's profit margins. The Directors estimate the net proceeds from Placing and proceeds from the Pre-IPO investors to be sufficient to expand its operational facilities.

The Group will increase its level of advertising and marketing activities to promote the Group's image and services. The Directors believe that such advertising and marketing activities are essential tin order to enhance the customer's awareness of the group's image and services.

The Group intends to acquire an interest in an existing foreign invested enterprise (such as a sino-foreign joint venture enterprise) in the PRC, with a shareholding interest not exceeding 49% and which has the legal capacity and right to carry on business of an international freight forwarding agency enterprise in the PRC. The Directors believe that such an investment will no only strengthen the Group's competitive position, but also expand its current scope of services and improve the Group's quality of service and profit margins.
