Among the highlights of these statements is the continued quarter over quarter growth in revenues from the Corporation's exclusive Vietnamese on-line lottery technology supply and services contract. Gross lottery turnover for the 1st Quarter totalled US$462,146, an increase of 6 % from the previous 4th Quarter total. This quarterly growth was accomplished with almost a week of less operational days than the previous Quarter due to statutory closures of businesses during a traditional February holiday festival period in Vietnam. Furthermore, the Corporation is pleased to advise that interim results for gross lottery turnover for April and May have continued this growth trend and expanded almost 20% more so far in the 2nd Quarter of 2009 than compared to the 1st Quarter of 2009. The Corporation expects with the impeding launch of the live, daily, nationally televised lottery draw show beginning July 1st along with the addition of the new Pick 2 / Pair game that gross lottery turnover and the Corporations associated net revenues is expected to continue to increase significantly in the coming months. The Corporation is also advises that it has been able to achieve this continuing revenue growth during this challenging global economic environment while simultaneously cutting its cost's. The Corporations G & A costs have been substantially reduced by almost 24 % over the same period compared to last year. This has resulted in the 1st Quarter loss of $587,837 being reduced 18% from the previous 2008 1st Quarter loss of $714,609. Additionally, pursuant to the Corporation's news release of April 23, 2009, through the use of new proprietary technology, the potential paradigm shift in the distribution channels in the near future is expected to produce another exponential lift in the Corporation's revenue earning performance, making these first quarter results just the first order of magnitude. Therefore coupled with its singular focus of increasing revenue growth while achieving ongoing efficiencies in its operational costs, the Corporation continues looking forward to achieving breakthrough results in the coming year.
