Mr. Ng Xinwei, the Executive Director and CEO of Agritrade Resources, said, ‘We expect an increasing demand of coal in Indonesia as the local government plans to further develop the power plants, and along with the rapid growth of Southeast Asia, we are confident in the mining and shipping businesses. Meanwhile, to further ensure the sustainable growth of the Growth, the Company established China division in April, and announce a proposed acquisition of HKM Media, an advertising agency. The premium of the initial conversion price is very satisfactory, reflecting the Subscriber’s confidence in the Group’s business and growth potential.
