FUTURE PLANS

The Directors believe that with the recent policy of the Hong Kong government to relax the restrictions on PRC visitors to Hong Kong, the number of PRC visitors to Hong Kong will increase which leads to a stronger demand for beauty and health-care products in ligh of the significant price gap between beauty products solid in the PRC and Hong Kong resulting from the PRC's tariff on such products and the great variety of such products available in Hong Kong reason of its free market system.

The Group intends to continue its expansion in Hong Kong by opening five retail outlets in the next few years in highly populated residential districts including Shatin and Kwun Tong. Furthermore, the Group intends a establish a “mega” retail outlet which can provide its customers with an extensive range of beauty and health-care products. The Group will also strategically ally with some travel agencies with an aim to turn Bonjour's “Mega” or other retail outlets as one of the tourist spots in Hong Kong. The Directors believe that with Hong Kong's tax-free environment on beauty and health-care products, the Group will be able to capture a large share in the spending of PRC and foreign visitors.

The Directors believes that as women today are more conscious about their health and individual image, coupled with the massive productions in various media or slimming, shaping and skin-care services, the Directors believe that an increasing number of women in Hong Kong are willing to spend money on spa, slimming and shaping treatments, which will result in more room for expansion of the Group's salon business. In addition, the Directors consider that the salon business has a synergetic effect to the selling business of the Group as some salon business has a synergetic effect to the selling business of the Group as some salon customers would like to buy the beauty products which they have used in their treatments at the beauty and health salons, the Group intends to open three additional salons in Tsimshatsui and Central in the next few years.
