                                       Chairman’s Statement



Dear shareholders,
    I hereby present to you the annual report of China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd. and its
subsidiaries (the “Company”) for the year ended 31 December 2018. On behalf of the Board, I
would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you for your long-term support to the Company.
    On 26 December 2018, the Company completed the assets restructuring, the change of
company name and its listing on the SZSE. Following the change of name to “China Merchants
Port Group Co., Ltd.”, its strategic positioning underwent remarkable transformation and
enhancement, and it evolved from a port operator in Chiwan Wharf, West Shenzhen Port Zone, to a
globally leading port developer, investor and operator. As a result of the restructuring, the Company
became a crucial vehicle for CMG to implement the “Belt and Road” Initiative promoted by China
and the “Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area” strategy. Serving not only as the
headquarters of CMG’s port sector, the Company is also the operating and management platform
for the port assets and tier one capital of CMG, hence playing a key role in the consolidation and
synergistic development of CMG’s port assets.
    Looking ahead, the Company aims to become a world-class integrated port service provider.
With a focus on core port businesses, it will take part in international port investment, development
and operation under the development model for the port ecosystem. Meanwhile, it will continue to
expand along the value chain and establish an integrated port network service system that connects
the world, so as to achieve scientific planning and balanced development on a global level. By
offering top-notch and professional solutions, it will become customers’ partner of choice for
cooperation, which will create greater value for the Company, enhance return for shareholders,
support local economies and global trade, and contribute to the healthy development of the port
industry.
Review for the year
    Since 2018, the global economy has in general maintained its growth momentum but on a
shaky ground. The economic and political conditions have been increasingly complicated. Trade
frictions provoked by the United States against numerous countries and regions worldwide have
impacted corporate operating environment and financial market confidence, threatening the
development of global economy and trade. In view of the macroeconomic condition with growing
uncertainties over the development of global economy and trade, the Company has adhered to its
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.                                                  Annual Report 2018


strategic directives, acted under the overall operation philosophy of “enhancing core capability,
insisting on both quality and efficiency, capitalising on opportunities of this era and striving to
become a global leading enterprise”, focused on the “five key priorities”, namely, homebase port
development, ports consolidation, overseas expansion, integration of industry and finance and
business innovation, pursued various designated tasks in a comprehensive and pragmatic manner,
and basically achieved its operating indicators formulated at the beginning of last year.
     In 2018, the overall operating performance of the Company was satisfactory with steady
growth of business. In terms of port operation, the port projects of the Company delivered a
container throughput totalled 109.73 million TEUs, up 6.6% over last year. Looking into the
regional performance, container throughput handled by the Group’s ports in Mainland China totaled
81.39 million TEUs, up 5.5% year-on-year. Ports in Hong Kong and Taiwan handled a combined
container throughput of 7.67 million TEUs, up 2.5% year-on-year, while overseas operations
delivered a container throughput of 20.66 million TEUs, up 12.9% year-on-year. Bulk cargo volume
handled by the Group’s ports increased by 1.5% year-on-year to 540 million tonnes, among which
the Group’s ports in Mainland China handled a total bulk cargo volume of 530 million tonnes,
representing an increase of 1.6% year-on-year, while that of overseas ports decreased by 7.7% from
2017 to 4.99 million tonnes. Among the major ports, SIPG handled a container throughput of 42.01
million TEUs, representing a year-on-year increase of 4.4%, making it the largest port in the world
for the ninth consecutive year. Container throughput handled in West Shenzhen Port Zone was
11.35 million TEUs, up 1.5% year-on-year. In the overseas arena, Colombo International Container
Terminals Limited (“CICT”) in Sri Lanka delivered a year-on-year growth of 12.0% by handling a
container throughput of 2.68 million TEUs. Lomé Container Terminal S.A. (“LCT”) in Togo
handled a container throughput of 1.05 million TEUs, representing a growth of 18.3% year-on-year.
Kumport Liman Hizmetleri ve Lojistik Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim irketi (“Kumport”) in Turkey

Terminal Link SAS acquired the port of Thessaloniki in Greece at the beginning of this year and it

March to December 2018, TCP Participaes S.A. (“TCP”) in Brazil, the transaction of which was
completed in February 2018, handled a container throughput of 0.69 million TEUs.
     In terms of key priorities, significant progress has been made in overseas expansion. The
delivery of overseas port projects, including TCP in Paranaguá, Brazil and Port of Newcastle in
Australia (the “Newcastle Port”), has been completed. The Djibouti International Free Trade Zone
has successfully opened and garnered positive feedbacks. The consolidation of domestic ports has
achieved remarkable breakthroughs. The Company has completed restructuring and is listed under a

new name. It has also been entrusted for the management of Liaoning Port Group Limited *(辽宁港
口集团有限公司), which opened up for further in-depth cooperation in various aspects. The
Company has been pursuing innovation development on multiple fronts as well. With regard to
business innovation, the establishment of phase II of “E-port” has been completed and the
commencement of various platforms integration and service building, such as the Electronic Data
Interchange (“EDI”) platform system, call center , the big data platform and visualization platform,
has enabled the full coverage of shipping companies, ship agents, customs brokers and tractor
drivers. For technology innovation, the Company has been actively pushing forward projects,
including RTG remote control, digitalized port construction and big data analysis for global
containers. These projects have further improved the technological edges of the port industry. With
respect to the cooperation between the industrial and financial sectors, the Company planned the
establishment of the China Port Innovation Investment Fund (中国港口创新投资基金) which
aimed to coordinate with the domestic influential port groups, innovate cooperation model for the
industrial and financial sectors, and explore new technologies, models and mechanisms for the port
ecosystem, thereby achieving collaboration and financial resource matching between various port
groups and industries.
Outlook
     In 2019, CMPort will commence the journey to become a world-class enterprise from a new
starting point. The Company will firmly maintain a steady growth and at the same time achieve
improvement with the focus on the strategic principle of “leveraging on its long-term strategy,
tapping the current edges, driving through technology and embracing changes”. It will strengthen
synergic cooperation externally and accelerate integrated development internally, make efforts to
enhance various capabilities, improve risk prevention and control, establish quality development
models and stay committed to becoming a globally leading enterprise. In 2019, the Company will
focus on the following tasks:
     Firstly, for the construction of homebase port, the Company will continue to strengthen its
efforts in the construction of domestic and overseas homebase ports, striving to build the West
Shenzhen homebase port into a world-class leading port. Furthermore, the Company will accelerate
the enhancement of the hardware and software environment of its homebase port, plus the CMG’s
internal and external resources, to establish a comprehensive service platform for the Pearl River
Delta, thus strengthening the construction of fully automated and intelligent port. In addition, the
Company will further promote the integration of operations with a view to improving quality and
efficiency effectively and enhancing cost management. In terms of overseas homebase port, the
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.                                                    Annual Report 2018


Company will leverage the synergic advantages of CICT and Hambantota port to create a leading
regional port and international shipping centre in South Asia.
    Secondly, for the consolidation of domestic ports, the Company will actively incorporate
national strategies in its operation, with emphasis on opportunities brought about by the “Belt and
Road” initiative, the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province, the
Yangtze River Economic Belt, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the opening
up of Hainan, the revitalization of Northeast China and the integrated development of the Yangtze
River Delta Zone.
     Thirdly, for overseas business layout, the Company will strictly comply with assessment
dimensions and principles for overseas ports projects. The Company will set out clear project
priorities and conduct studies on its overseas network along the “East-West route, South-North
route, regions along the Belt and Road Initiative”. It will continue to put more efforts in the study of
global regional market and to establish and improve the regional market development and research
database for East Africa, West Africa, South Asia, Europe, Latin America and Southeast Asia. It will
also tap into the growth of the “China+” industry after shifting to the “Port-Park-City” model.
     Fourthly, for comprehensive port development, the Company will actively push ahead with the
transformation from a terminal operator to a comprehensive port service provider. It will step up its
efforts in promoting the “Port-Park-City” business model, and actively push forward the
construction and development of the Djibouti International Free Trade Zone. The Company will
continue to proactively explore the relevant comprehensive development cooperation projects in
Togo; while for the Hambantota industrial port project, the Company will facilitate the preliminary
work in relation to the introduction of investment and capital based on the improvement of the park
development plan. Capitalizing development opportunities arising from of the Guangdong-Hong
Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the Company will actively make progress on its land preparatory
works in the Qianhai-Shekou Free Trade Zone by participating in the overall development thereof.
     Fifthly, for technology innovation, the Company will attach further importance to the unique
role and fundamental position of technology-driven and innovation-oriented development. Also, the
Company will create a top-tier port innovation ecosystem. Smart upgrade of terminals of which the
Company is a controlling shareholder will be gradually achieved through technological innovation,
enabling the Company to formulate a proposal for implementation of “RTG Remote Control” with
its own features so as to support the transformation of Shenzhen Haixing Harbor Development Co.,
Ltd. ("Haixing")and smart upgrade of various terminals in the future.
     Sixthly, for active quality and efficiency enhancement, the Company will continuously
optimize its internal procedures and mechanisms to promote management reform and process
China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.                                                Annual Report 2018


reengineering. The Company will focus its efforts on enhancing the level of refined operation and
management of terminals of which it is a controlling shareholder, increasingly benchmarking its
terminal management, reducing cost and improving efficiency, and generating income by saving
costs, thereby creating values for shareholders.
     In 2019, the risk of declining cyclical recovery momentum of the global economy will increase.
Due to trade investment policies on “ reverse globalization” and macroeconomic policy
adjustments such as interest rate hike and tax reduction in developed countries, the growth of global
trade will be under the intensifying pressure of an overall slowdown in the future. The Company
will respond positively to challenges like the downshift of growth in global container seaborne
freight volume, the subdued profitability of domestic ports, the increased competition for
investment between the ports in emerging countries. Moreover, it will seize the opportunities
presented by the Chinese government’s support for import, accelerating consumption upgrade, the
continuous promotion of policies regarding the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao
Greater Bay Area and the free trade port, the growth in regional trade, the relocation of the
“China+” industry and port consolidation. By the above means, the Company will spare no effort to
enhance operating results and reward shareholders with better investment return.

                      The Company provides various services for clients (including logistics
     Bonded           companies, trading companies or cargo owners), for example, warehouse/yard

                      services for tractors arriving or leaving the bonded logistics parks.


    2. Development stage and cyclical characteristic of the industry in which the Company
operates and its industry position during the reporting period


     The port industry is a crucial cornerstone for national economic and social progress, and is
closely linked to global economic and trade development. In 2018, the global economy maintained
its growth in general. Nonetheless, the Company faced challenges arising from the divergence in
recovery between various countries, trade frictions aggravated by trade protectionism, restructuring
of global trade pattern, the slowdown in growth of global container shipping, the downshift of
domestic port business, intensifying market competition, severe competition for investment in
emerging markets overseas, technology advancement in the port and shipping industry and evolving
business models.


     In light of the increasing uncertainty in the global economic and trade environment, the growth
of global container throughput slowed down in 2018. According to the statistics of Clarkson
Research Services Limited, a maritime consulting firm, the global container throughput for coastal
ports amounted to 201 million TEUs in 2018, representing a year-on-year increase of 4.46%, which
was down 0.66 percentage points as compared with 2017. Growing uncertainties in global trade
development and rising fuel costs in general reduced the profitability of shipping companies. The
performance of different shipping routes varied. The shipping volume of Asia-Europe routes
decreased slightly due to the sluggish economies in the United Kingdom and other European
countries. The Sino-US trade friction resulted in cargo delivery before schedule and supported the
rapid growth of shipping volume of Trans-Pacific routes at 5.88%. Driven by booming economic
development in emerging Asian economies, the shipping volume of routes in the region maintained
a relatively remarkable year-on-year increase of 6.45%. With concentrated delivery of large vessels,
the average scale of single ship expanded continuously. While Asia-Europe routes were dominated
by the three largest shipping alliances, the container feeder market saw development opportunities.


     The growth rate of global port container throughput declined in 2018. According to the
                                                     11
 China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.                                                Annual Report 2018


statistics of Drewry Shipping Consultants Ltd., a maritime consulting firm, the global container port
throughput amounted to 7.86 billion TEUs in 2018, up 5.3% year-on-year, while the growth rate
decreased by 1.2percentage points as compared with 2017. In terms of market share by container
throughput, the top 3 regions in order are China (including Hong Kong), Europe and Southeast Asia,
and the top 3 fastest growing regions in order are South Asia, Southeast Asia and Oceania. The
growth rate of PRC container port throughput decreased and the development of different ports
varied. According to the statistics from National Bureau of Statistics of China, the container
throughput handled by PRC ports of significant scale was 249.55 million TEUs in 2018,
representing a growth of 5.2% compared with the same period last year , growing slower than the
same period in 2017.


     The Company is the largest global leading port developer, investor and operator in the PRC,
with a comprehensive port network at major hub locations along coastal China. It has also
established presence in South Asia, Africa, Europe, Mediterranean, Oceania and South America. By
its proactive, sound and efficient operating style, the Company capitalises on its global port
portfolio, professional management experience, the self-developed state-of-the-art terminal
operation system and integrated logistics management platform for exports and imports, thereby
providing its customers with timely and efficient port and maritime logistics services along with
comprehensive and modern integrated logistics solutions. In addition, the Company also invests in
bonded logistics operation and launches integrated park development business for the extension of
the port value chain, which allows it to create greater value through the synergies of the existing
terminal network.

II Significant Changes in Major Assets

1. Significant Changes in Major Assets
 Major assets                                  Main reason for significant changes
                   1. On 26 January 2018, the Second Extraordinary Meeting of the Ninth Board of Directors of
                   the Company approved the Proposal on Capital Increase to Zhoushan Archipelago New Area

                   “Zhoushan RoRo”) and Zhoushan Archipelago New Area Xinghai RoRo Terminal Co., Ltd.
                   ( hereafter referred to as “Xinghai Terminal”) signed the Agreement on Capital Increase to

                   the agreement, the Company contributed RMB149.7098 million in cash to hold 51% equity
                   in Zhoushan RoRo, and the registered capital of Zhoushan RoRo increased from RMB60
                   million to RMB173.0786 million, and Zhoushan RoRo owned 100% stake of Xinghai
                   Terminal, which made Xinghai Terminal a wholly owned subsidiary of Zhoushan RoRo. In
                   May 2018, the Company paid all the increased capital to Zhoushan RoRo. On 29 August
                   2018, Zhoushan RoRo completed the formalities for the change of its directors, supervisors
                   and senior management with the industrial and commercial administration. As such,
                   Zhoushan RoRo has officially become a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. For

                   Media Port Investments Limited Shareholder Agreement was approved at the 3rd
                   Extraordinary Meeting of the Company’s 9th Board of Directors of 2018. On the same day,

                   Media Port Investments Limited Shareholder Agreement signed on 30 September 2002.

                   combined stake of 66.10% in Chiwan Wharf from CND Group, Malai Storage and KFEL to
                   CMGD and Broadford Global, the Company’s control over Media Port Investments Limited
                   will cease. On 8 June 2018, when the relevant equity transfer formalities were completed, the
                   Company excluded Shenzhen Mawan Port Services Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Mawan Wharf Co.,

growth phase to quality development phase with the driving force of innovation further increased
and the upgrade and development of consumption and industry structures progressed at a faster pace.

RMB14.09 trillion, reflecting a year-on-year increase of 12.9%. In particular, the potential of trade
cooperation between China and those countries along the “Belt and Road” initiative is unleashing,
leading to an increase in import and export value of 13.3%, which is higher than the overall growth
rate.

Explanation of why any of the data above varies significantly on a year-on-year basis:

Subtotal of cash generated from operating activities rose 29.92% year-on-year, primarily driven by
higher proceeds from sale of commodities and rendering of services.
Subtotal of cash used in operating activities rose 34.80% year-on-year, primarily driven by more
payments for commodities and services and more cash used in other operating activities.
Subtotal of cash generated from investing activities declined 79.76% year-on-year, primarily driven
by a smaller amount of net proceeds from disposal of subsidiaries or other business units.
Subtotal of cash used in investing activities rose 121.22% year-on-year, primarily driven by a
higher amount of net payments for acquisition of subsidiaries and other business units.
Net cash generated from investing activities declined 826.94% year-on-year, primarily driven by

less cash generated from and more cash used in investing activities.
Subtotal of cash generated from financing activities rose 248.62% year-on-year, primarily driven by
a higher amount of borrowings obtained.
Subtotal of cash used in financing activities rose 145.52% year-on-year, primarily driven by a
higher amount of repayments of borrowings.
Net cash generated from financing activities rose 1225.60% year-on-year, primarily driven by a
higher amount of net inflow calculated by borrowings obtained minus repayments of borrowings.
Explanation of why net cash generated from/used in operating activities varies significantly from
net profit of the Reporting Period:
√ Applicable □ Not applicable
For the Reporting Period, net cash generated from operating activities was RMB4,288,575,424.84,
while net profit was RMB2,885,914,753.96. The gap was primarily caused by the changes in the
fair value of financial assets as a result of the adoption of the new accounting standards governing
financial instruments for the current year.

IX. Outlook of the Companyblelled by the Compan

1. Outlook and trends of the industry
Looking forward to 2019, after the strong recovery in the last two years, the global economy will
face the risk of slower growth. Trade protectionism will lead to more friction in the circulation of
key elements and geopolitical issues will continue to dampen global recovery. With the weakening
marginal utility of the stimulation policies, coupled with the effect of continuous interest rate hike,
the United States will be facing increased debt and financial pressure; while the European
economies will continue to recover at a slow pace with the prevailing uncertainties associated with
political risks. Meanwhile, as affected by capital outflow, currency depreciation and geopolitical
issues, the emerging and developing economies demonstrated diverging growth trends. According
to IMF, it is expected that the global economy will grow at a lower rate of 3.5% in 2019, down 0.2
percentage point as compared to that of 2018, among which, developed economies are expected to
grow by 2.0%, down 0.3 percentage point as compared to that of 2018; emerging and developing
economies will grow by 4.5%, down 0.1 percentage point as compared to that of 2018, and the total
global trade volume (including goods and services) will grow by 4.0%, flat with 2018.
Chinang forward to 2019, after the strong recovery in the last two years, the global economy will
face the risk of slower growth. Trade protectionism will lead to gradually stabilise under more
vigorous fiscal expansion whilst income tax reform will help to stabilise consumption. The constant
promulgation of supportive policies for private enterprises will restore the confidence of the
enterprises. Fiscal and monetary policies aiming to stabilise overall demand will be more relaxed,
and a more moderate and flexible approach will be adopted in addressing complicated international
issues such as Sino-US trade friction. All of the above will be conducive to economic and trade
growth. According to the IMF, China’s economy is projected to grow by 6.2% in 2019, down 0.4
percentage point over 2018.
Affected by the trade investment policy of 019, down 0.4 percentage point over 2018. economy will
face the risk of slower growtt rate hike and tax reduction of developed countries, the risk of
declining cyclical recovery momentum of the global economy will increase. In 2019, the global
container transportation market will be under recovery and adjustment with the pressure of
overcapacity. Under the influence of the Sino-US trade friction, the centralized export in 2018 by
certain cargo owners of Trans-Pacific shipping routes will have a certain impact on their seaborne
volume in 2019; while the shipping price of Asia-Europe shipping routes is under pressure as
affected by the economic slowdown in Europe. However, the industrial transfer will bring more

rooms for the development of shipping routes in Southeast Asia. Meanwhile, under the influence of
trade friction and industrial transfer, the port investment of emerging economies will be facing
intensified competition. The port price of developed countries continued to rise, creating great
pressure for the acquisition and expansion strategy of port operators.
The current policies in China encouraging imports and acceleration of consumption upgrade will
drive the growth of domestic import. Through measures such as organizing Import Expo, the
Chinese government has been vigorously driving consumption. In the future, the government will
focus on both export and import in China and the consumption import market will certainly provide
great support for the port operation in China. The continued implementation of Guangdong-Hong
Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and free-trade port policy is expected to promote port development.
With enhancing trading activities in the region, there will be opportunities for the development of
regional shipping hubs. The integration of domestic regional ports has also brought opportunities to
tap into major coastal cities and realise comprehensive development. Under the new development
trend of domestic and overseas economy and trade as well as ports and the shipping industry, the
Company will be playing an increasingly important role as a major player among global
comprehensive port service providers.

constantly improving the quality of port development with its best efforts. Secondly, in respect of
overseas strategies, the Company will continue to capitalize on the opportunities arising from the
“Belt and Road” initiative promoted by China and the international industrial transfers, at the same
time adapting to the trend of deploying mega-vessels and forming shipping alliances. Emphasis will
be placed on the development of global major hub ports and gateway ports as well as areas with

4. Possible risks and counter measures
(1)External risks
 The external risks mainly come from the combined impact of international political environment
and consolidation of domestic port groups. As for international political risks, the rise of populism
around the globe has led to challenges in the globalization trend. The change in geopolitical and
economy trade landscape, as highlighted by Sino-US trade friction, has caused changes in global
trade structure and resulted in certain impacts on global economy trade and port shipping sector.
Shipping routes in various regions across the globe may be affected and changed accordingly,
causing adverse impacts on containers and bulk cargo businesses of the Company. As for
consolidation of domestic port groups, with an ever-deepening consolidation of various regions in
China, the port competition landscape will change correspondingly, causing uncertainty to the
business and operation earnings of the Company.
 By enhancing the build-up of risk identification, warning and mitigation ability, the Company has
prevented, controlled and reduced external risks. The Company has continued to pay attention to
changes in external policies and market environment specific to international political environment
risk, especially Sino-US trade friction. On one hand, the Company can improve risk warning and
monitoring measures and ensure proper work on customer credit status so as to reduce the risk of
accounts receivable. On the other hand, the Company can notice the changes in the trade market
structure and flow of resources, formulate and adjust strategies for business development in time so
as to enhance collaboration and close connection between ports at home and abroad, improve
service quality and related services, and stabilize import and export business and customer base.

 (2) Internal risks
The internal risks mainly come from the risks of shortage of outsourced labour, increased cost and
legal compliance of overseas investment projects. In the context of economic transformation and
upgrade in Shenzhen, wharf operation as a traditional industry faced significant labour shortage for
the outsourced business due to the current working conditions and remuneration packages.
Remarkable trends such as staff turnover and aging staff will affect production efficiency and posed
safety risks. When the Company expands its overseas business, the requirement on compliance with
legal policies in invested countries will pose the risk of uncertainty on the investment and operation
of the Company.
The Company has proactively studied the outsourced staffing policy and formulated corresponding
responsive strategies to diminish the impacts of outsourced staffing risk on the business of the
Company, including enhancing the working environment of outsourced staff and improving their
remuneration packages by increasing labor productivity, accelerating technological upgrade and
innovation of techniques to raise the level of mechanization, reduce manual labor input and lower
the use of manpower. Regarding the legal compliance risk of overseas investment projects, the
Company will step up its efforts in establishing and enforcing compliance management system and
ensure proper work on management and control throughout the process, i.e. before, during, and
after overseas investment project investment and operation, so as to strictly prevent legal
compliance risks.

During the year under review, the Company acquired a 51% interest in China Merchants Port
(Zhoushan) RoRo Logistics Co., Ltd. (“Zhoushan RoRo”). Zhoushan RoRo changed its directors,
supervisors and senior management with the industrial and commercial administration on 29 August
2018 and officially became a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. From that day on, the
Company       includes     Zhoushan     RoRo   into    the   consolidated   financial   statements.    The
above-mentioned acquisition fits the definition of an assets acquisition, and does not constitute
business or a business combination. Thus, it is recognized as a change to the consolidation scope
caused by other reasons.
The Company and China Merchants Investment Development Company Limited (hereinafter
referred to as “CMID”) signed the Agreement on Asset Acquisition through the Issue of Shares on
19 June 2018, which was approved by China Securities Regulatory Commission through the Reply

To the Shareholders of China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.:

I.   Audit Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of China Merchants Port Group Co., Ltd.
(formerly known as "Shenzhen Chiwan Wharf Holdings Limited", hereinafter referred to as "the
Company"), which comprise the consolidated and company balance sheets as at 31 December 2018,
and the consolidated and company income statements, the consolidated and company cash flow
statements and the consolidated and company statements of changes in shareholders' equity for the
year then ended, and the notes to the financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements of the Company present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated and company's financial position as of 31 December 2018, the consolidated
and company's results of operations and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with
Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises.

II. Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Auditing Standards for the Chinese Certified Public
Accountants. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of
the Company in accordance with the Auditing Standards for the Chinese Certified Public Accountants,
and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the standards. We believe
that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.

III. Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context
of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not
provide a separate opinion on these matters. We determine the followings are key audit matters that
need to be addressed in our report.

1.   Subsequent measurement of long-term equity investment in associates and joint ventures

As disclosed in Notes (V) 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has made equity
investment in several enterprises, over which the Company exercises joint control or has significant
influence. In 2018, the Company's income from investment in associates/joint ventures under equity
method amounts to RMB 3,913,864,538.60. As at 31 December 2018, the carrying amount of
long-term equity investment of the Company in associates/joint ventures amounts to RMB
50,176,577,263.40. Since the investment income from long-term equity investment in associates/joint
ventures is significant, with its accuracy depending on the investee's financial status and operation
results, we identified the aforesaid subsequent measurement of long-term equity investment in
associates/joint ventures as a key audit matter of the consolidated financial statements.

III. Key Audit Matters - continued

1.   Subsequent measurement of long-term equity investment in associates and joint ventures -
     continued

     Principal audit procedures we performed for key audit matters are as follows:

(1) Understood the major associates/joint ventures and their environment, and identified whether the
    major associates/joint ventures were significant components in terms of financial importance and
    business nature;

(2) Understood the certified public accountants of major associates/joint ventures and evaluated their
    independence and professional competence;

(3) Identified and assessed the risk of material misstatement in the financial statements of the major
    associates/joint ventures from the perspective of auditing the consolidated financial statements of
    the Company by reading the financial statements of the major associates/joint ventures and
    discussing with the management the financial performance of the major associates/joint ventures
    and the significant judgments and estimates made in the preparation of the financial statements;

(4) Discussed with the component certified public accountants of the major associates/joint ventures
    their assessment of the component audit risk, the identification of key audit areas and the
    implementation of the corresponding audit procedures to evaluate whether the audit of the
    component certified public accountants was appropriate;

(5) Evaluated whether the audit evidence obtained by the component certified public accountants was
    sufficient and appropriate by reviewing the audit documents of the component certified public
    accountants of the major associates/joint ventures when we deemed necessary.

(6) Verified whether the accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the associates/joint
    ventures were consistent with the Company's. If not, checked whether the financial statements of
    the associates/joint ventures have been adjusted according to the accounting policies and
    accounting period of the Company, and recognized the amount of investment income under equity
    method on that basis.

     to RMB 3,969,374,954.86 was recognized as goodwill. Since the business combinations not
     involving enterprises under common control involves significant judgments and estimates in
     determining the fair value of identifiable net assets on the acquisition date, the calculation of
     goodwill, etc., we identified the accounting treatment of the business combinations involving
     enterprises not under common control as a key audit matter of the consolidated financial
     statements.

     Principal audit procedures we performed for key audit matters are as follows:

(1) Evaluated the independence, objectiveness and professional competence of the third-party
    evaluation organization hired by the management through interviews and quriers;

(2) Based on our understanding of the industry and business, judged whether the management's
    methods and assumptions used in assessing the fair value of the identifiable net assets at the
    acquisition date were reasonable; compared the gross profit margin of forecast period and the
    historical gross profit margin, the income growth rate of forecast period and the historical income
    growth rate, and the development planning of TCP, etc. to evaluate the reasonableness of
    forecasted financial data and its evaluation results.

(3) Utilized the work of internal evaluation experts to assess the rationality of evaluation methods and
    key assumptions used by third-party evaluation organization in the assessment of the fair value of
    identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, the rationality of the discount rate used, and the
    accuracy of calculation of the net present value of expected future cash flows.

3.   Goodwill impairment

     As disclosed in Notes (V) 16 to the consolidated financial statements, as at 31 December 2018,
     the goodwill in the consolidated financial statements of the Company was RMB 8,335,895,842.35.
     The management of the Company used the present value of the estimated future cash flows to
     determine the recoverable amount of the relevant asset group when testing the goodwill for
     impairment, and the forecast of future cash flows included key assumptions, such as income
     growth rate, gross profit margin, discount rate, etc. We identified the goodwill impairment as a
     key audit matter of the consolidated financial statements due to the significant amount of goodwill
     and that the management needs to make significant judgments and estimates when conducting
     goodwill impairment testing.

III. Key Audit Matters - continued

3.    Goodwill impairment - continued

      Principal audit procedures we performed for key audit matters are as follows:

(1) Tested the operation effectiveness of internal controls related to goodwill impairment;

(2) Referred to industry practice to assess whether the management's approach in cash flows forecast
    is appropriate and whether the assumptions used are reasonable;

(3) Compared the data used in cash flow forecast with historical data and budget data approved by the
    management, and assessed the reasonableness of the data used;

(4) Compared the growth rate of the business volume in the forecast period with the growth rate of
    the historical business volume and evaluated its appropriateness.

(5) Compared the gross profit margin of the forecast period with the actual gross profit margin of
    previous years to assess its appropriateness in combination with the business plan and industry
    development trend;

(6) Understood the basis for management to determine the growth rate of the business in the
    subsequent forecast period and assessed its appropriateness;

(7) Assessed the appropriateness of the discount rate adopted by the management in combination with
    market risk-free interest rates, risk factors, etc.;

(8) Reviewed whether the calculation of the present value of future cash flows was correct.

IV.    Other Information

The Company is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the annual report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements
and our auditor's report.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion.

In combination with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated.

If, based on the audit work performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

                                                                                     (Page 5, 6 pages)

V. Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial
   Statements

The Company is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair
view in accordance with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises, and for the design,
performance and maintenance of such internal control that is necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate the
Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

These charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting
process.

VI.   Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes an
audit opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with Auditing Standards for the Chinese Certified Public Accountants will
always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and
are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could expected influence the
economic decisions taken based on these financial statements by reasonable users.

As part of an audit in accordance with Auditing Standards for the Chinese Certified Public
Accountants, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the
audit. We also:

(1)   Identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
      due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain
      audit evidence that was sufficient and appropriate to form our opinion. The risk of not detecting
      a material misstatement resulting from fraud was higher than for one resulting from error, as
      fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override
      of internal control.

(2)   Understood audit related internal control in order to design audit procedures that were
      appropriate in the circumstances.

(3)   Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies applied and the reasonableness of
      accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

VI.   Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements - continued

(4)   Concluded on the appropriateness of the directors' application of the going concern basis of
      accounting. Based on audit evidence obtained, concluded on whether the material uncertainty of
      events or conditions that may cause cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue
      as a going concern existed. If we concluded that a material uncertainty existed, we were required
      to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or to
      modify our opinion, if such disclosures were inadequate. Our conclusions were based on the
      audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or
      conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

(5)   Evaluated the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements (including
      the disclosures), and whether the financial statements represented the underlying transactions
      and events in a manner that achieved fair presentation.

(6)   Obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities
      or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We
      were responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remained
      solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicated with those charged with governance over audit scope, time arrangement and
significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies of internal control that we identified
through audit.

We also provided the those charged with governance with a statement that we had complied with
relevant ethical requirements of independence, and communicated with those charged with governance
over all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence,
and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determined those matters
that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and were
therefore the key audit matters. We described these matters in our auditor's report unless law or
regulation precluded public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we
determined that a matter should not be addressed in our report because the adverse consequences of
doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such
communication.

(I) GENERAL INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY

       China Merchants Port Holdings Company Limited (formerly known as "Shenzhen Chiwan Wharf
       Holdings Limited", hereinafter referred to as the "Company") was a stock limited company
       incorporated in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, on 16 January 1993.

       On 30 October 2018, as approved by the Reply on Approving Issuance of Shares to Purchase
       Assets and Collection of Funds from Shenzhen Chiwan Wharf Holdings Limited to China
       Merchants Investment Development Company Limited (Zheng Jian Xu Ke [2018] No. 1750)
       issued by China Securities Regulatory Commission ("CSRC"), the Company issued
       1,148,648,648 shares of A-stock to China Merchants Investment Development Company Limited
       ("CMID") to acquire 39.45% equity of China Merchants Port Holdings Company Limited

       The headquarters of the Company is located in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. The Company
       and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") are principally engaged in the rendering of port
       service, bonded logistics service and other business such as property development and investment.

       The Company's and consolidated financial statements have been approved by the Board of
       Directors on 28 March 2019.

       See Notes (VII) "Equity in other entities" for details of the scope of consolidated financial

       common control. See Note (VI) "Changes in the consolidated scope" for details of changes in the
       scope of consolidated financial statements in the current period.


(II)   BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

       Basis of preparation of financial statements

       The Group has adopted the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("ASBE") issued by
       the Ministry of Finance ("MoF"). In addition, the Group has disclosed relevant financial
       information in accordance with Information Disclosure and Presentation Rules for Companies
       Offering Securities to the Public No. 15 - General Provisions on Financial Reporting (Revised in
       2014).

       Basis of accounting and principle of measurement

       The Group has adopted the accrual basis of accounting. Except for certain financial instruments
       which are measured at fair value, the Group adopts the historical cost as the principle of
       measurement of the financial statements. Upon being restructured into a stock company, the fixed
       assets and intangible assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized
       based on the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.
       Where assets are impaired, provisions for asset impairment are made in accordance with the
       relevant requirements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2018


(II)    BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued

        Basis of accounting and principle of measurement - continued

        Where the historical cost is adopted as the measurement basis, assets are recorded at the amount
        of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire them at the
        time of their acquisition. Liabilities are recorded at the amount of proceeds or assets received or
        the contractual amounts for assuming the present obligation, or, at the amounts of cash or cash
        equivalents expected to be paid to settle the liabilities in the normal course of business.

        Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
        orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether
        that price is directly observable or estimated using valuation technique. Fair value measurement
        and/or disclosure in the financial statements are determined according to the above basis.

        Fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the
        inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair
        value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

         Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the
           entity can access at the measurement date;
         Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable
           for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
         Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

        Going Concern

        The Group assessed its ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 months from 31
        December 2018 and did not notice any events or circumstances that may cast significant doubt
        upon its ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the financial statements have been
        prepared on a going concern basis.


(III)   THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING
        ESTIMATES

        All the following significant accounting policies and accounting estimates are based on

        5.    The accounting treatment of business combinations involving or not involving
              enterprises under common control

        Business combinations are classified into business combinations involving enterprises under
        common control and business combinations not involving enterprises under common control.

        5.1   Business combinations involving enterprises under common control

        A business combination involving enterprises under common control is a business combination in
        which all of the combining enterprises are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both
        before and after the combination, and that control is not transitory.

        Assets and liabilities obtained shall be measured at their respective carrying amounts as recorded
        by the combining entities at the date of the combination. The difference between the carrying
        amount of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid for the
        combination is adjusted to the share premium in capital reserve. If the share premium is not
        sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess shall be adjusted against retained earnings.

        Costs that are directly attributable to the combination are charged to profit or loss in the period in
        which they are incurred.

              under common control - continued

        5.2   Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill

        A business combination not involving enterprises under common control is a business
        combination in which all of the combining enterprises are not ultimately controlled by the same
        party or parties before and after the combination.

        The cost of combination is the aggregate of the fair values, at the acquisition date, of the assets
        given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer, in exchange for
        control of the acquire. Where a business combination not involving enterprises under common
        control is achieved in stages that involve multiple transactions, the cost of combination is the sum
        of the consideration paid at the acquisition date and the fair value at the acquisition date of the
        acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree. The intermediary expenses (fees in respect of
        auditing, legal services, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative
        expenses attributable to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the periods
        when they are incurred.

        The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired by the acquirer in a
        business combination that meet the recognition criteria shall be measured at fair value at the
        acquisition date.

        Where the cost of combination exceeds the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's
        identifiable net assets, the difference is treated as an asset and recognized as goodwill, which is
        measured at cost on initial recognition. Where the cost of combination is less than the acquirer's
        interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets, the acquirer reassesses the
        measurement of the fair values of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent
        liabilities and measurement of the cost of combination. If after that reassessment, the cost of
        combination is still less than the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable
        net assets, the acquirer recognizes the remaining difference immediately in profit or loss for the
        current period.

        Goodwill arising on a business combination is measured at cost less accumulated impairment
        losses, and is presented separately in the consolidated financial statements.

        6.    Preparation of consolidated financial statements

        The scope of consolidation in the consolidated financial statements is determined on the basis of
        control. Control exists when the investor has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to
        variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power over
        the investee to affect its returns. The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if
        facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes of the above elements of the definition of
        control.

(III)   THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING
        ESTIMATES - continued

        6.   Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued

        Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiaries and
        ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.

        For a subsidiary already disposed of by the Group, the operating results and cash flows before the
        date of disposal (the date when control is lost) are included in the consolidated income statement
        and consolidated statement of cash flows, as appropriate.

        For subsidiaries acquired through a business combination involving enterprises not under
        common control, the operating results and cash flows from the acquisition date (the date when
        control is obtained) are included in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement
        of cash flows, as appropriate.

        No matter when the business combination occurs in the reporting period, subsidiaries acquired
        through a business combination involving enterprises under common control or the party being
        absorbed under merger by absorption are included in the Group's scope of consolidation as if they
        had been included in the scope of consolidation from the date when they first came under the
        common control of the ultimate controlling party. Their operating results and cash flows from the
        date when they first came under the common control of the ultimate controlling party are included
        in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows, as appropriate.

        The significant accounting policies and accounting periods adopted by the subsidiaries are
        determined based on the uniform accounting policies and accounting periods set out by the
        Company.

        All significant intra-group balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

        The portion of subsidiaries' equity that is not attributable to the parent is treated as minority
        interests and presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated balance sheet under
        shareholders' equity. The portion of net profits or losses of subsidiaries for the period attributable
        to minority interests is presented as "minority interests" in the consolidated income statement
        under the "net profit" line item.

        When the amount of loss for the period attributable to the minority shareholders of a subsidiary
        exceeds the minority shareholders' portion of the opening balance of shareholders' equity of the
        subsidiary, the excess amount is still allocated against minority interests.

        Acquisition of minority interests or disposals of interests in a subsidiary that do not result in the
        loss of control over the subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts
        of the parent's interests and minority interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative
        interests in the subsidiary. The difference between the amount by which the minority interests are
        adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is adjusted to capital reserve. If
        the capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, the excess are adjusted against
        retained earnings.

        For the stepwise acquisition of equity interest till acquiring control after a few transactions and
        leading to business combination not involving enterprises under common control, this should be
        dealt with based on whether this belongs to 'package deal': if it belongs to 'package deal',
        transactions will be dealt as transactions to acquire control. If it does not belong to 'package deal',
        transactions to acquire control on acquisition date will be under accounting treatment, the fair
        value of acquirees' shares held before acquisition date will be revalued, and the difference
        between fair value and book value will be recognized in profit or loss of the current period; if
        acquirees' shares held before acquisition date involve in changes of other comprehensive income
        and other equity of owners under equity method, this will be transferred to income of acquisition
        date.

        When the Group loses control over a subsidiary due to disposal of equity investment or other
        reasons, any retained interest is re-measured at its fair value at the date when control is lost. The
        difference between (i) the aggregate of the consideration received on disposal and the fair value of
        any retained interest and (ii) the share of the former subsidiary's net assets cumulatively calculated
        from the acquisition date according to the original proportion of ownership interests is recognized
        as investment income in the period in which control is lost, and the goodwill is offset accordingly.
        Other comprehensive income associated with investment in the former subsidiary is reclassified to
        investment income in the period in which control is lost.

        When the Group loses control of a subsidiary in two or more arrangements (transactions), terms
        and conditions of the arrangements (transactions) and their economic effects are considered.
        One or more of the following indicate that the Group shall account for the multiple arrangements
        as a 'package deal': (i) they are entered into at the same time or in contemplation of each other; (ii)
        they form a complete transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect; (iii) the
        occurrence of one transaction is dependent on the occurrence of at least one other transaction; (iv)
        one transaction alone is not economically justified, but it is economically justified when
        considered together with other transactions. Where the transactions of disposal of equity
        investments in a subsidiary until the loss of control are assessed as a package deal, these
        transactions are accounted for as one transaction of disposal of a subsidiary with loss of control.
        Before losing control, the difference of consideration received on disposal and the share of net
        assets of the subsidiary continuously calculated from acquisition date is recognized as other
        comprehensive income. When losing control, the cumulated other comprehensive income is
        transferred to profit or loss of the period of losing control. If the transactions of disposal of equity
        investments in a subsidiary are not assessed as a package deal, these transactions are accounted
        for as unrelated transactions.

        ESTIMATES - continued

        7.    Types of joint arrangements and the accounting treatment of joint operation

        There are two types of joint arrangements - joint operations and joint ventures. The classification
        of joint arrangements under is determined based on the rights and obligations of parties to the
        joint arrangements by considering the structure, the legal form of the arrangements, the
        contractual terms agreed by the parties to the arrangement. A joint operation is a joint
        arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the
        assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint
        arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net
        assets of the arrangement.

        Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method by the Group, which is
        detailed in Notes (III) 14.3.2, a long-term equity investment is subject to for using the equity
        method.

        The Group as a joint operator recognizes the following items in relation to its interest in a joint
        operation: (1) its solely-held assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; (2) its
        solely-assumed liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; (3) its revenue
        from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; (4) its share of the revenue
        from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and (5) its solely-incurred expenses, including
        its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The Group accounts for the recognized assets, liabilities,
        revenues and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the
        requirements applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

        8.    Recognition criteria of cash and cash equivalents

        Cash comprises cash on hand and deposits that can be readily withdrawn on demand. Cash
        equivalents are the Group's short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to
        known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

        9.    Foreign currency transactions

        9.1   Transactions denominated in foreign currencies

        A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition, by applying the spot exchange
        rate on the date of the transaction.

        At the balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated into functional currency
        using the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from the
        differences between the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and those on
        initial recognition or at the previous balance sheet date are recognized in profit or loss for the
        period, except that (1) exchange differences related to a specific-purpose borrowing denominated
        in foreign currency that qualify for capitalization are capitalized as part of the cost of the
        qualifying asset during the capitalization period; (2) exchange differences related to hedging
        instruments for the purpose of hedging against foreign currency risks are accounted for using
        hedge accounting.

        9.1   Transactions denominated in foreign currencies - continued

        When the consolidated financial statements include foreign operation(s), if there is foreign
        currency monetary item constituting a net investment in a foreign operation, exchange difference
        arising from changes in exchange rates are recognized as "exchange differences arising on
        translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies " in other comprehensive
        income, and in profit and loss for the period upon disposal of the foreign operation.

        Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated to the amounts in
        functional currency at the spot exchange rates on the dates of the transactions; the amounts in
        functional currency remain unchanged. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair
        value are re-translated at the spot exchange rate on the date the fair value is determined.
        Difference between the re-translated functional currency amount and the original functional
        currency amount is treated as changes in fair value (including changes of exchange rate) and is
        recognized in profit and loss or as other comprehensive income.

        9.2   Translation of financial statements denominated in foreign currencies

        For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, financial statements of a
        foreign operation are translated from the foreign currency into RMB using the following method:
        assets and liabilities on the balance sheet are translated at the spot exchange rate prevailing at the
        balance sheet date; shareholders' equity items are translated at the spot exchange rates at the dates
        on which such items arose; all items in the income statement as well as items reflecting the
        distribution of profits are translated at exchange rates that approximate the actual spot exchange
        rates on the dates of the transactions; The difference between the translated assets and the
        aggregate of liabilities and shareholders' equity items is recognized as other comprehensive
        income and included in shareholders' equity.

        Cash flows arising from a transaction in foreign currency and the cash flows of a foreign
        subsidiary are translated at average exchange rate during the accounting period of consolidated
        financial statements. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents is regarded
        as a reconciling item and presented separately in the cash flow statement as "effect of exchange
        rate changes on cash and cash equivalents".

        The opening balances and the comparative figures of previous year are presented at the translated
        amounts in the previous year's financial statements.

        On disposal of the Group's entire interest in a foreign operation, or upon a loss of control over a
        foreign operation due to disposal of certain interest in it or other reasons, the Group transfers the
        accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial statements of this foreign
        operation attributable to the owners' equity of the Company and presented under owners' equity,
        to profit or loss in the period in which the disposal occurs.

        financial statements are re-attributed to minority interests and are not recognized in profit and loss.
        For partial disposals of equity interests in foreign operations which are associates or joint ventures,
        the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of financial
        statements of foreign operations is reclassified to profit or loss.

        10.   Financial instruments

        The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability when it becomes a party to the
        contractual provisions of a financial instrument.

        All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade
        date basis.

        Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For financial assets
        and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, relevant transaction costs are directly
        recognized in profit or loss; transaction costs relating to other categories of financial assets and
        financial liabilities are included in the value initially recognized. For accounts receivable
        recognized that do not contain a significant financing component or a financing component
        included in the contracts less than one year which are not considered by the Group, which are
        within the scope of Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.14 - Revenue (hereinafter
        referred to as "new standards for revenue"), transaction prices defined in the standards shall be
        adopted on initial recognition.

        The effective interest method is a method that is used in the calculation of the amortized cost of a
        financial asset or a financial liability and in the allocation of the interest income or interest
        expense in profit or loss over the relevant period.

        The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows through the
        expected life of the financial asset or financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial
        asset or to the amortized cost of a financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate,
        the Group estimates future cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial
        asset or financial liability (for example, prepayment, extension, call option or similar options) but
        shall not consider the expected credit losses.

        The amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the amount of a financial asset or a
        financial liability initially recognized net of principal repaid, plus or less the cumulative amortized
        amount arising from amortization of the difference between the amount initially recognized and
        the amount at the maturity date using the effective interest method, net of cumulative credit loss
        allowance (only applicable to financial assets).

        10.1 Classification, recognition and measurement of financial assets

        Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group's financial assets of various categories are
        subsequently measured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income or at
        fair value through profit or loss.

        If contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
        payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, and the financial asset is
        held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect
        contractual cash flows, such asset is classified into financial assets measured at amortized cost,
        which include cash and bank balances, notes receivable and accounts receivable and other
        receivables and etc..

        Financial assets that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at fair value
        through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"): the financial asset is held within a business
        model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling; and the
        contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
        payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Financial assets at
        FVTOCI are presented as other debt investments. Other debt investments due within one year
        (inclusive) since the balance sheet date are presented as non-current assets due within one year.
        Other debt investments due within one year (inclusive) upon acquisition are presented as other
        current assets.

        On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate non-trading equity instruments, other
        than contingent consideration recognized through business combination not involving enterprises
        under common control, as financial assets at FVTOCI on an individual basis. Such financial
        assets at FVTOCI are presented as other equity instrument.

        Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") include those classified
        as financial assets at FVTPL and those designated as financial assets at FVTPL, which are
        presented as held-for-trading financial assets other than derivative financial assets. Such financial
        assets at FVTPL which may fall due more than one year since the balance sheet date and will be
        held more than one year are presented as other non-current financial assets.

              Any financial assets that does not qualify for amortized cost measurement or measurement at
              FVTOCI or designated at FVTOCI are classified into financial assets at FVTPL.
              Upon initial recognition, in order to eliminate or significantly reduce accounting mismatch
              and qualified hybrid financial instrument combines financial asset with embedded derivatives,
              the Group will irrevocably designated it as financial liabilities at FVTPL.

        A financial asset is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

         It has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term; or
                On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the
                Group manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual
                pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
                It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a
                hedging instrument.

        10.1.1 Financial assets measured at amortized cost

        Financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized cost using
        the effective interest method. Gain or loss arising from impairment or derecognition is recognized
        in profit or loss.

        For financial assets measured at amortized cost, the Group recognizes interest income using
        effective interest method. The Group calculates and recognizes interest income through book
        value of financial assets multiplying effective interest, except for the following circumstances:

               For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets with credit impairment, the
               Group calculates and recognizes its interest income based on amortized cost of the
               financial asset and the effective interest through credit adjustment since initial recognition.

        10.1.2 Financial assets at FVTOCI

        Impairment losses or gains related to financial assets at FVTOCI, interest income measured using
        effective interest method and exchange gains or losses are recognized into profit or loss for the
        current period, except for the above circumstances, changes in fair value of the financial assets are
        included in other comprehensive income. Amounts charged to profit or loss for every period equal
        to the amount charged to profit or loss as it is measured at amortized costs. When the financial
        asset is derecognized, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other
        comprehensive income shall be removed from other comprehensive income and recognized in
        profit or loss.

        Non-trading equity instrument investments are designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, the
        cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income allocated to the
        part derecognized are transferred and included in retained earnings. During the period in which
        the Group holds the non-trading equity instrument, revenue from dividends is recognized in profit
        or loss for the current period when (1) the Group has established the right of collecting dividends;
        (2) it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the Group; and (3) the amount
        of dividends can be measured reliably.

        Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measured at fair value. Gain or loss arising from
        changes in fair values and dividends and interests related to the financial assets are recognized in
        profit or loss.

        10.2 Impairment of financial instruments

        The Group makes accounting treatment on impairment and recognizes loss allowance for
        expected credit losses ("ECL") on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, financial
        instruments classified as at FVTOCI, lease receivables and contract assets.

        The Group makes a loss allowance against amount of lifetime ECL of the contract assets and
        accounts receivable that exclude significant financing component or do not consider the financing
        component in the contract within one year arising from transactions adopting New Standards for
        Revenue, contract assets and accounts receivable that include significant financing component
        and lease receivables arising from transactions adopting New Standards for Lease.

        For other financial instrument, other than purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets,
        the Group assesses changes in credit risks of the relevant financial asset since initial recognition at
        each balance sheet date. If the credit loss of the financial instrument has been significantly
        increased since initial recognition, the Group will make a loss allowance at an amount of expected
        credit loss during the whole life; if not, the Group will make a loss allowance for the financial
        instrument at an amount in the future 12-month expected credit losses. Except for the financial
        assets classified as at FVTOCI, increase in or reversal of credit loss allowance is included in profit
        or loss as loss/gain on impairment. For the financial assets classified as at FVTOCI, the Group
        recognizes credit loss allowance in other comprehensive income and recognizes the loss/gain on
        impairment in profit or loss, while the Group does not decrease the carrying amount of such
        financial assets in the balance sheet.

        The Group has makes a loss allowance against amount of expected credit losses during the whole
        life in the prior accounting period. However, at the balance sheet date, the credit risk on a
        financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition; the Group will
        measure the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount in the future 12-month
        expected credit losses. Reversed amount of loss allowance arising from such circumstances shall
        be included in profit or loss as impairment gains.

        10.2.1 Significant increase of credit risk

        In assessing whether the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group
        compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with
        the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition. For
        loan commitments, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment is
        considered to be the date of initial recognition in the application of criteria related to the financial
        instrument for impairment.

        In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk
        has increased significantly:

        (1)  Significant changes in internal price indicators of credit risk as a result of a change in credit
               risk;
        (2) Other changes in the rates or terms of an existing financial instrument that would be
               significantly different if the instrument was newly originated or issued at the balance sheet
               date (such as more stringent covenants, increased amounts of collateral or guarantees, or
               higher income coverage).
        (3) Significant changes in external market indicators of credit risk for a particular financial
               instrument or similar financial instruments with the same expected life. These indicators
               include the credit spread, the credit swap prices for the borrower, the length of time or the
               extent to which the fair value of a financial asset has been less than its amortized cost and
               other market information related to the borrower, such as changes in the price of a
               borrower’s debt and equity instruments.
        (4) Significant changes in actual or expected external credit rating for the financial instruments;
        (5) An actual or expected internal credit rating downgrade for the borrower
        (6) Adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a
               significant change in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations;
        (7) An actual or expected significant change in the operating results of the debtor;
        (8) Significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same borrower;
        (9) Significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological environment of the
               debtor;
        (10) Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality
               of third-party guarantees or credit enhancements, which are expected to reduce the
               debtor’s economic incentive to make scheduled contractual payments or to otherwise have
               an effect on the probability of a default occurring.
        (11) Significant changes in circumstances expected to reduce the debtor’s economic incentive to
               make scheduled contractual payments;

        the Group will assume that the credit risk of the financial instrument has not been significantly
        increased since initial recognition.

        10.2.2 Credit-impaired financial assets

        When the Group expected occurrence of one or more events which may cause adverse impact on
        future cash flows of a financial asset, the financial asset will become a credit-impaired financial
        assets. Objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes but not limited to the
        following observable events:

        (1)    Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
        (2)    A breach of contract by the debtor, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal
               payments;
        (3)    The creditor, for economic or legal reasons relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty,
               granting a concession to the debtor;
        (4)    It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial
               reorganizations;
        (5)    The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial
               difficulties of the issuer or the debtor;
        (6)    Purchase or originate a financial asset with a large scale of discount, which reflects facts
               of credit loss incurred.

        10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss

        The Group uses a provision matrix to determine the credit losses for accounts receivable, contract
        assets and debt investment based on a portfolio basis. The Group classifies financial instruments
        into different groups based on common risk characteristics. Common credit risk characteristics
        include credit risk rating, the date of initial recognition, remaining contractual maturity, industry
        of borrower and geographical location of the borrower etc.

        10.2 Impairment of financial assets - continued

        10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss - continued

        The Group determines expected credit losses of relevant financial instruments using the following
        methods:

         For a financial asset, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual
             cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the Group
             expects to receive;
         For a lease receivable, a credit loss is the present value of the difference between the contractual
             cash flows that are due to the Group under the contract and the cash flows that the Group
             expects to receive;
         For a financial asset with credit-impaired at the balance sheet date, but not purchased or
             originated credit-impaired, a credit losses is the difference between the asset’s gross
             carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the
             financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

        The factors reflected in methods of measurement of expected credit losses include an unbiased
        and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes;
        time value of money; reasonable and supportable information about past events, current
        conditions and forecasts on future economic status at balance sheet date without unnecessary
        additional costs or efforts.

        10.2.4 Write-down of financial assets

        When the Group will no longer reasonably expect that the contractual cash flows of financial
        assets can be collected in aggregate or in part, the Group will directly write down the carrying
        amount of the financial asset, which constitutes derecognition of relevant financial assets.

        10.3 Transfer of financial assets

        The Group will derecognize a financial asset if one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) the
        contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the financial asset has been
        transferred and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset is
        transferred to the transferee; or (iii) although the financial asset has been transferred, the Group
        neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial
        asset but has not retained control of the financial asset.

        10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued

        If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a
        financial asset, and it retains control of the financial asset, the Group will recognize the financial
        asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the transferred financial asset and recognize an
        associated liability. The Group will measure relevant liabilities as follows:

         For transferred financial assets carried at amortized cost, the carrying amount of relevant
             liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement
             less amortized cost of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon
             transfer of financial assets) with addition of amortized cost of obligations assumed by the
             Group (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Relevant
             liabilities are not designated as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.

         For transferred financial assets carried at fair value, the carrying amount of relevant financial
             liabilities is the carrying amount of financial assets transferred with continuing involvement
             less fair value of the Group's retained rights (if the Group retains relevant rights upon
             transfer of financial assets) with addition of fair value of obligations assumed by the Group
             (if the Group assumes relevant obligations upon transfer of financial assets). Accordingly,
             the fair value of relevant rights and obligations shall be measured on an individual basis.

        For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria, for
        financial asset categorized into those measured at amortized cost and financial asset categorized
        into those measured at FVTOCI, the difference between (1) the carrying amount of the financial
        asset transferred and (2) the sum of the consideration received from the transfer and accumulated
        changes in fair value initially recorded in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or
        loss. For the non-tradable equity instrument designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, cumulative
        gain or loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive income should be removed from
        other comprehensive income but be recognized in retained earnings.

        For a part of transfer of a financial asset that satisfies the derecognition criteria, the carrying
        amount of the transferred financial asset is allocated between the part that is derecognized and the
        part that is continuously involved, based on the respective fair values of those parts on transfer
        date. The difference between (1) the sum of the consideration received for the part derecognized
        and any cumulative gain or loss allocated to the part derecognized which has been previously
        recognized in other comprehensive income; and (2) the carrying amount allocated to the part
        derecognized on derecognition date; is recognized in profit or loss. For the non-tradable equity
        instrument designated as financial assets at FVTOCI, cumulative gain or loss that has been
        recognized in other comprehensive income should be removed from other comprehensive income
        but be recognized in retained earnings.

        For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that does not satisfy the derecognition criteria, the
        Group will continuously recognize the transferred financial asset in its entirety. Considerations
        received due to transfer of assets should be recognized as a liability upon receipts.

        10.4 Classification of financial liabilities equity instruments

        Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified into financial liabilities or equity
        instruments on the basis of the substance of the contractual arrangements and the economic nature
        not only its legal form, together with the definition of financial liability and equity instruments on
        initial recognition.

        10.4.1    Classification, recognition and measurement of financial liabilities

        On initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified into financial liabilities at FVTPL and
        other financial liabilities.

        10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL

        Financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of financial liabilities held for trading (including derivatives
        classified as financial liabilities) and those designated as at FVTPL. Except for derivative
        financial liabilities presented separately, the financial liabilities at FVTPL are presented as
        held-for-trading financial liabilities.

        A financial liability is classified as held for trading if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

         It has been acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term; or
                On initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the
                Group manages together and there is objective evidence that the Group has a recent actual
                pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
                It is a derivative that is not a financial guarantee contract or designated and effective as a
                hedging instrument.

        A financial liability may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition when one of the
        following conditions is satisfied: (i) Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces
        accounting mismatch; or (ii) The Group makes management and performance evaluation on a fair
        value basis, in accordance with the Group's formally documented risk management or investment
        strategy, and reports to key management personnel on that basis. (iii) The qualified hybrid
        financial instrument combines financial asset with embedded derivatives.

        10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL - continued

        Transaction financial liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or losses
        arising from changes in the fair value and any dividend or interest expenses paid on the financial
        liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.

        The amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in
        the credit risk of that liability shall be presented in other comprehensive income, other changes in
        fair values are included in profit or loss for the current period. Upon the derecognition of such
        liability, the accumulated amount of change in fair value that is attributable to changes in the
        credit risk of that liability, which is recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to
        retained earnings. Any dividend or interest income earned on the financial liabilities are
        recognized in profit or loss. If the impact of the change in credit risk of such financial liability
        dealt with in the above way would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, the
        Group shall present all gains or losses on that liability (including the effects of changes in the
        credit risk of that liability) in profit or loss.

        10.4.1.2 Other financial liabilities

        Other financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities arising from transfer of financial assets
        does not satisfy derecognition criteria or continue involvement of transferred financial assets, are
        subsequently measured at amortized cost, with gain or loss arising from derecognition or
        amortization recognized in profit or loss.

        That the Group and its counterparty modify or renegotiate the contract does not result in
        derecognition of a financial liability subsequently measured at amortized cost but result in
        changes in contractual cash flows, the Group will recalculate the carrying amount of the financial
        liability, with relevant gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. The Group will determine carrying
        amount of the financial liability based on the present value of renegotiated or modified contractual
        cash flows discounted at the financial liability's original effective interest rate. For all costs or
        expenses arising from modification or renegotiation of the contract, the Group will adjust the
        modified carrying amount of the financial liability and make amortization during the remaining
        term of the modified financial liability.

        10.4.1.3 Financial guarantee contracts

        A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments
        to reimburse the holder of the contract for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make
        payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.
        Subsequent to initial recognition, financial guarantee contracts that are not designated as financial
        liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at the higher of: (1) amount of loss
        provision; and (2) the amount initially recognized less cumulative amortization amount
        determined based on new standards for revenue.

        10.4.2    Derecognition of financial liabilities

        The Group derecognizes a financial liability (or part of it) when the underlying present obligation
        (or part of it) is discharged. An agreement between the Group (the debtor) and the creditor to
        replace the original financial liability with a new financial liability with substantially different
        terms is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition
        of a new financial liability.

        When the Group derecognizes a financial liability or a part of it, it recognizes the difference
        between the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability)
        derecognized and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or new
        financial liabilities assumed) in profit or loss.

        10.4.3    Equity instruments

        An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group
        after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued (including refinanced), repurchased,
        sold and cancelled by the Group are recognized as changes of equity. Changes of fair value of
        equity instruments is not recognized by the Group. Transaction costs related to equity transactions
        are deducted from equity.

        The Group recognizes the distribution to holders of the equity instruments as distribution of
        profits, dividends paid do not affect total amount of shareholders' equity.

        Where the Group has a legal right that is currently enforceable to set off the recognized financial
        assets and financial liabilities, and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the financial
        asset and settle the financial liability simultaneously, a financial asset and a financial liability shall
        be offset and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet. Except for the above circumstances,

        not be offset.

        11.   Accounts receivable

        The Group makes internal credit ratings on customers and determines expected losses rate of
        accounts receivable. Basis for determining ratings and methods for bad debt provision are as
        follows:

                                                                                     Average expected loss

                                  Customers can make repayments within
                                  credit term and have good credit records
        A                         based on historical experience. The                       0.00-0.10

                                  extremely low in the foreseeable future.
                                  The customer may have overdue payment
        B                         based on historical experience but they can               0.10-0.30
                                  make repayments.
                                  The evidences indicate that the overdue
                                  credit risks of the customer are significantly

                                  unpayment and default.
                                  The evidences indicate that the accounts
                                  receivable are impaired and the customer
        D                         has significant financial difficulty. The               50.00-100.00
                                  amounts cannot be recovered in the
                                  foreseeable future.

        12.1 Categories of inventories

        Inventories include raw materials, merchandise and reusable materials and etc. Inventories are
        initially measured at cost. Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion
        and other expenditures incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

        12.2 Valuation method of inventories upon delivery

        The actual cost of inventories upon delivery is calculated using the weighted average method.

        12.3 Basis for determining net realizable value of inventories and provision methods for decline
        in value of inventories

        At the balance sheet date, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. If
        the cost of inventories is higher than the net realizable value, a provision for decline in value of
        inventories is made. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
        business less the estimated costs of completion, the estimated costs necessary to make the sale and
        relevant taxes. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of clear evidence obtained, after
        taking into consideration the purposes of inventories being held and effect of post balance sheet
        events.

        Provision for decline in value of other inventories is made based on the excess of cost of
        inventory over its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis.

        After the provision for decline in value of inventories is made, if the circumstances that
        previously caused inventories to be written down below cost no longer exist so that the net
        realizable value of inventories is higher than their cost, the original provision for decline in value
        is reversed and the reversal is included in profit or loss for the period.

        12.4 Inventory count system

        The perpetual inventory system is maintained for stock system.

        12.5 Amortization methods for low cost and short-lived consumable items and packaging
        materials

        Packaging materials and low cost and short-lived consumable items are amortized using the
        immediate write-off method.

        13.   Assets held for sale

        When the Group withdraw the book value of certain assets or disposal group mainly through
        disposal instead of continual application, the assets should be classified as held-for-sale assets.

        Assets or disposal group classified as held-for-sale assets should meat following conditions: (1)
        The current status is available for immediate distribution according to similar transactions of this
        category of assets or disposal group; (2) The transaction is likely to occur, i.e. the Group has made
        its resolution over the distribution arrangements and acquired purchase commitment. Also the
        distribution is going to be fulfilled within a year.

        13. Assets held for sale - continued

        If the holding company loses control of its subsidiary for reasons like subsidiary disposal, in
        regardless of whether the holding company still keeps part of equity investment, once the
        proposed investment disposal meets the requirements of being classified as available for sale
        assets in the holding company's individual statement, all assets and liabilities of the subsidiary
        should be classified as held-for-sale in consolidated financial statement.

        The group's non-current assets and disposal group are measured at the lower of book value and
        the net value of fair value less costs to sell. Once the book value is higher than the net value of
        fair value less costs to sell, the book value should be adjusted to the net value and the excess
        should be recognized as impairment losses and provision for held-for-sale assets impairment
        should be made. A gain and a reverse in the previous provision for held-for-sale assets
        impairment can be recognized for any increase in fair value less costs to sell at subsequent
        balance sheet dates, to the extent that it is not in excess of the cumulative impairment loss that has
        been recognized.

        Non-current held-for-sale assets is not subject to depreciation and amortization. The creditor
        interest and other expenses of disposal group classified as held-for-sale asset should still be
        recognized.

        Once the associate or joint venture equity investment is completely or partly classified as
        held-for-sale assets, the classified part of the investment is not subject to equity method
        measurement.

        14. Long-term equity investments

        14.1 Basis for determining joint control and significant influence over investee

        Control is archived when the Group has the power over the investee and has rights to variable
        returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its
        returns. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an economic activity, and
        exists only when the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activity
        require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Significant influence is the power to
        participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint
        control over those policies. When determining whether an investing enterprise is able to exercise
        control or significant influence over an investee, the effect of potential voting rights of the
        investee (for example, warrants and convertible debts) held by the investing enterprises or other
        parties that are currently exercisable or convertible shall be considered.

        14.2 Determination of investment cost

        For a long-term equity investment acquired through a business combination involving enterprises
        under common control, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment is the attributable
        share of the carrying amount of the shareholders' equity of the acquiree at the date of combination.
        The difference between the initial investment cost and the carrying amount of cash paid, non-cash
        assets transferred and liabilities assumed shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of
        capital reserve is not sufficient, any excess shall be adjusted to retained earnings. If the
        consideration of the combination is satisfied by the issue of equity securities, the initial
        investment cost of the long-term equity investment shall be the share of party being absorbed of
        the owners' equity in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party at the
        date of combination. The aggregate face value of the shares issued shall be accounted for as share
        capital. The difference between the initial investment cost and the aggregate face value of the
        shares issued shall be adjusted to capital reserve. If the balance of capital reserve is not sufficient,
        any excess shall be adjusted to retained earnings.

        For a long-term equity investment acquired through business combination not involving
        enterprises under common control, the investment cost of the long-term equity investment
        acquired is the cost of acquisition.

        The absorbing party's or purchaser's intermediary expenses (fees in respect of auditing, legal
        services, valuation and consultancy services, etc.) and other administrative expenses attributable
        to the business combination are recognized in profit or loss in the periods when they are incurred.

        The long-term equity investment acquired otherwise than through a business combination is
        initially measured at its cost. When the entity is able to exercise significant influence or joint
        control (but not control) over an investee due to additional investment, the cost of long-term
        equity investments is the sum of the fair value of previously-held equity investments determined
        in accordance with Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.22 - Financial Instruments:
        Recognition and Measurement of (ASBE No. 22) and the additional investment cost.

        14.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss

        14.3.1 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the cost method

        Long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method in the
        Company's separate financial statements. A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the
        Group.

        Under the cost method, a long-term equity investment is measured at initial investment cost.
        Additional or withdrawing investment would affect the cost of long-term equity investment.
        Investment income is recognized in the period in accordance with the attributable share of cash
        dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee.

        14.3.2 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method

        Except associate and joint venture investment completely or partly classified as available for sale,
        and The Group accounts for investment in associates and joint ventures using the equity method.
        An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and a joint venture is a
        joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the
        net assets of the joint arrangement.

        Under the equity method, where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment
        exceeds the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of
        acquisition, no adjustment is made to the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment
        cost is less than the Group's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the
        time of acquisition, the difference is recognized in profit or loss for the period, and the cost of the
        long-term equity investment is adjusted accordingly.

        Under the equity method, the Group recognizes its share of the other comprehensive income and
        net profit or loss of the investee for the period as other comprehensive income and investment
        income or loss respectively for the period, and the carrying amount of the long-term equity
        investment is adjusted accordingly. The carrying amount of the investment shall be reduced by the
        portion of any profit distributions or cash dividends declared by the investee that is distributed to
        the investing enterprise. The investing enterprise shall adjust the carrying amount of the long-term
        equity investment for other changes in owners' equity of the investee (other than net profits or
        losses, other comprehensive income and profit distribution), and include the corresponding
        adjustment in capital reserve. The Group recognizes its share of the investee's net profit or loss
        based on the fair value of the investee's individually identifiable assets at the acquisition date after
        making appropriate adjustments. Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by
        the investee are different from those of the investing enterprise, the investing enterprise shall
        adjust the financial statements of the investee to conform to its own accounting policies and
        accounting period, and recognize other comprehensive income and investment income or losses
        based on the adjusted financial statements. Unrealized profits or losses resulting from the Group's
        transactions and assets invested or sold that are not recognized as business transactions with its
        associates and joint ventures are recognized as investment income or loss to the extent that those
        attributable to the Group's, equity interest are eliminated. However, unrealized losses resulting
        from the Group's transactions with its associates and joint ventures which represent impairment
        losses on the transferred assets are not eliminated.

        The Group discontinues recognizing its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying
        amount of the long-term equity investment together with any long-term interests that in substance
        form part of its net investment in the investee are reduced to zero. Except that if the Group has
        incurred obligations to assume additional losses, a provision is recognized according to the
        obligation expected, and recorded in the investment loss for the period. Where net profits are
        subsequently made by the investee, the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only
        after its share of the profits exceeds the share of losses previously not recognized.

        14.4 Disposal of long-term equity investments

        On disposal of a long-term equity investment, the difference between the proceeds actually
        received and receivable and the carrying amount is recognized in profit or loss for the period.
        For long-term equity investments accounted for using the equity method, if the remaining interest
        after disposal is still accounted for using the equity method, other comprehensive income
        previously recognized for using the equity method is accounted for on the same basis as would
        have been required if the investee had directly disposed of related assets or liabilities, and
        transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis; owners' equity recognized due to
        changes in other owners' equity of the investee (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive
        income and profit distribution) is transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis.

        For long-term equity investments accounted for using the cost method, if the remaining interest
        after disposal is still accounted for using the cost method, other comprehensive income previously
        recognized for using the equity method or in accordance with the standards for the recognition
        and measurement of financial instruments before obtaining the control over the investee, is
        accounted for on the same basis as would have been required if the investee had directly disposed
        of related assets or liabilities, and transferred to profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis;
        changes in other owners' equity in the investee's net assets recognized under the equity method
        (other than net profit or loss, other comprehensive income and profit distribution) is transferred to
        profit or loss for the period on a pro rata basis.

        15. Investment properties

        Investment property is property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. It includes
        a land use right that is leased out; a land use right held for transfer upon capital appreciation; and
        a building that is leased out.

        An investment property is measured initially at cost. Subsequent expenditures incurred for such
        investment property are included in the cost of the investment property if it is probable that
        economic benefits associated with an investment property will flow to the Group and the
        subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably, other subsequent expenditures are recognized
        in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

        The Group uses the cost model for subsequent measurement of investment property, and adopts a
        depreciation or amortization policy for the investment property which is consistent with that for
        buildings or land use rights.

        When an investment property is sold, transferred, retired or damaged, the Group recognizes the
        amount of any proceeds on disposal net of the carrying amount and related taxes in profit or loss
        for the period.

        ESTIMATES - continued

        16. Fixed assets

        16.1 Recognition criteria for fixed assets

        Fixed assets are tangible assets that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or
        services, for rental to others, or for administrative purposes, and have useful lives of more than
        one accounting year. A fixed asset is recognized only when it is probable that economic benefits
        associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
        Fixed assets are initially measured at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company, the
        fixed assets initially contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on the
        valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department.

        Subsequent expenditures incurred for the fixed asset are included in the cost of the fixed asset and
        if it is probable that economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the
        subsequent expenditures can be measured reliably. Meanwhile the carrying amount of the
        replaced part is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures are recognized in profit or loss in
        the period in which they are incurred.

        16.2 Depreciation of each category of fixed assets

        A fixed asset is depreciated over its useful life using the straight-line method starting from the
        month subsequent to the one in which it is ready for intended use. The useful life, estimated net
        residual value rate and annual depreciation rate of each category of fixed assets are as follows:

                                                 Estimated              Estimated               Annual
                    Category
                                                useful lives        residual value (%)   depreciation rate (%)
        Port and terminal facilities            8 - 99 years               5.00              0.96 - 11.88
        Buildings                              10 - 50 years               5.00               1.90 - 9.50
        Machinery and equipment, furniture
                                                3 - 20 years              5.00               4.75 - 31.67
        and fixture and other equipment
        Motor vehicles and cargo ships          5 - 25 years              5.00               3.80 - 19.00

        Estimated net residual value of a fixed asset is the estimated amount that the Group would
        currently obtain from disposal of the asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the
        asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.

        16.3 Other explanations

        If a fixed asset is upon disposal or no future economic benefits are expected to be generated from
        its use or disposal, the fixed asset is derecognized. When a fixed asset is sold, transferred, retired
        or damaged, the amount of any proceeds on disposal of the asset net of the carrying amount and
        related taxes is recognized in profit or loss for the period.

        The Group reviews the useful life and estimated net residual value of a fixed asset and the
        depreciation method applied at least once at each financial year-end, and account for any change
        as a change in an accounting estimate.

        17. Construction in progress

        Construction in progress is measured at its actual costs. The actual costs include various
        construction expenditures during the construction period, borrowing costs capitalized before it is
        ready for intended use and other relevant costs. Construction in progress is not depreciated.
        Construction in progress is transferred to a fixed asset when it is ready for intended use.

        18. Borrowing Costs

        Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying
        asset are capitalized when expenditures for such asset and borrowing costs are incurred and
        activities relating to the acquisition, construction or production of the asset that are necessary to
        prepare the asset for its intended use or sale have commenced. Capitalization of borrowing costs
        ceases when the qualifying asset being acquired, constructed or produced becomes ready for its
        intended use or sale. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended during periods in which the
        acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset is interrupted abnormally and when
        the interruption is for a continuous period of more than 3 months. Capitalization is suspended
        until the acquisition, construction or production of the asset is resumed. Other borrowing costs are
        recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

        Where funds are borrowed under a specific-purpose borrowing, the amount of interest to be
        capitalized is the actual interest expense incurred on that borrowing for the period less any bank
        interest earned from depositing the borrowed funds before being used on the asset or any
        investment income on the temporary investment of those funds. Where funds are borrowed under
        general-purpose borrowings, the Group determines the amount of interest to be capitalized on
        such borrowings by applying a capitalization rate to the weighted average of the excess of
        cumulative expenditures on the asset over the amounts of specific-purpose borrowings. The
        capitalization rate is the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the general-purpose
        borrowings. During the capitalization period, exchange differences related to a specific-purpose
        borrowing denominated in foreign currency are all capitalized. Exchange differences in
        connection with general-purpose borrowings are recognized in profit or loss in the period in
        which they are incurred.

        19. Intangible assets

        Intangible assets include land use rights and port operating right.

        An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company,
        the intangible assets initial contributed by the state-owned shareholders are recognized based on
        the valuation amounts confirmed by the state-owned assets administration department. When an
        intangible asset with a finite useful life is available for use, its original cost is amortized over its
        estimated useful life.

        For an intangible asset with a finite useful life, the Group reviews the useful life and amortization
        method at the end of the period, and makes adjustments when necessary.

        20. Impairment of long-term assets

        The Group assesses at the balance sheet date whether there is any indication that the long-term
        equity investments, investment properties measured at cost method, construction in progress,
        fixed assets and intangible assets with a finite useful life may be impaired. If there is any
        indication that such assets may be impaired, recoverable amounts are estimated for such assets.
        Intangible assets with indefinite useful life and intangible assets not yet available for use are
        tested for impairment annually, irrespective of whether there is any indication that the assets may
        be impaired.

        Recoverable amount is estimated on individual basis. If it is not practical to estimate the
        recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable amount of the asset group to which the
        asset belongs will be estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value
        less costs of disposal and the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from
        the asset.

        If the recoverable amount of an asset or an asset group is less than its carrying amount, the deficit
        is accounted for as an impairment loss and is recognized in profit or loss.

        Goodwill is tested for impairment at least at the end of each year. For the purpose of impairment
        testing, goodwill is considered together with the related assets groups, i.e., goodwill is reasonably
        allocated to the related assets groups or each of assets groups expected to benefit from the
        synergies of the combination. In testing an assets group with goodwill for impairment, an
        impairment loss is recognized if the recoverable amount of the assets group or sets of assets
        groups (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is firstly
        allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to such assets group or sets of
        assets groups, and then to the other assets of the group pro-rata basis on the basis of the carrying
        amount of each asset (other than goodwill) in the group.

        Once the impairment loss of above-mentioned asset is recognized, it shall not be reversed in any
        subsequent period.

        21. Long-term prepaid expenses

        Long-term prepaid expenses represent expenses incurred that should be borne and amortized over
        the current and subsequent periods (together of more than one year). Long-term prepaid expenses
        are amortized using the straight-line method over the expected periods in which benefits are
        derived.

        22. Employee benefits

        22.1 The accounting treatment of short-term employee benefits

        Actually occurred short-term employee benefits are recognized as liabilities, with a corresponding
        charge to the profit or loss for the period or in the costs of relevant assets in the accounting period
        in which employees provide services to the Group. Staff welfare expenses incurred by the
        Group are recognized in profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets based on the
        actually occurred amounts when it actually occurred. Non-monetary staff welfare expenses are
        measured at fair value.

        Payment made by the Group of social security contributions for employees such as premiums or
        contributions on medical insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance, etc. and
        payments of housing funds, as well as union running costs and employee education costs provided
        in accordance with relevant requirements, are calculated according to prescribed bases and
        percentages in determining the amount of employee benefits and recognized as relevant liabilities,
        with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the period or the costs of relevant assets in the
        accounting period in which employees provide services.

        22.2 The accounting treatment of post-employment benefits

        Post-employment benefits are classified into defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans.

        During the accounting period of rendering service to employees of the Group, amount which
        should be paid according to defined contribution plans is recognized as liabilities, and recognized
        in profit or loss or related costs of assets.

        For defined benefit plans, the Group calculates defined benefit plan obligations using projected
        unit credit method and the service cost resulting from employee service in the current period is
        recorded in profit or loss or the cost of related assets. Defined benefit costs are categorized as
        follows:

        22.2 The accounting treatment of post-employment benefits - continued

        Service costs and net interest of net liabilities and net assets of defined benefit plans are
        recognized in profit or loss of current period or costs of related assets. Remeasurement of the net
        defined benefit liability (asset) (including actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets,
        excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset), and any
        change in the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net
        defined benefit liability (asset)) are recognized in other comprehensive income.

        22.3 The accounting treatment of termination benefits

        When the Group provides termination benefits to employees, employee benefit liabilities are
        recognized for termination benefits, with a corresponding charge to the profit or loss for the
        period at the earlier of: (1) when the Group cannot unilaterally withdraw the offer of termination
        benefits because of the termination plan or a curtailment proposal; and (2) when the Group
        recognizes costs or expenses related to restructuring that involves the payment of termination
        benefits.

        23. Provisions

        Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation related with contingencies, it
        is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation causing an outflow of
        economic benefits, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

        The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle
        the present obligation at balance sheet date, taking into account the risks, uncertainties and time
        value of money surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows
        estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash
        flows where the effect of the time value of money is material.

        When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be
        recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that
        reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable should not exceed the carrying
        amount of provisions.

        24.   Revenue

        The Group's revenue is mainly from the following business types:

        (1) Port service;
        (2) Bonded logistics service
        (3) Other business such as property development and investment.

(III)   THE COMPANY'S SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING
        ESTIMATES - continued

        24.   Revenue - continued

        The Group recognizes revenue based on the transaction price allocated to such performance
        obligation when a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when "control" of the goods or services
        underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A performance
        obligation represents the commitment that a good and service that is distinct shall be transferred
        by the Group to the customer. Transaction price refers to the consideration that the Group is
        expected to charge due to the transfer of goods or services to the customer, but it does not include
        payments received on behalf of third parties and amounts that the Group expects to return to the
        customer.

        If one of the following criteria is met and it is a performance obligation performed over time, the
        Group recognizes the revenue within a certain period of time according to the progress of the
        performance: (1) the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the
        Group's performance as the Group performs; (2) the customer is able to control the goods under
        construction in the course of the Group's performance; (3) the goods produced by the Group
        during the performance of the contract are irreplaceable and the Group has the right to charge for
        the accumulated part of the contract that has been performed so far during the whole contract
        period. Otherwise, the Group recognizes revenue at a certain point in time when "control" of the
        goods or services is transferred to the customer.

        The Group adopts input method, i.e. the value of goods or services transferred to customers to
        determine the appropriate progress of performance. Where the progress cannot be determined
        reasonably, the revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to be
        compensated based on the cost already incurred, until the progress of performance is reasonably
        determined.

        Contract asset refers to the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that
        the Group has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than
        the passage of time. The Group's unconditional (i.e., depending on the passage of time only) right
        to receive consideration from the customer is separately presented as receivables. Contract
        liabilities refers to the Group's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the
        Group has received consideration from the customer. Contract assets and contract liabilities under
        the same contract are set out on a net basis.

        ESTIMATES - continued

        24.   Revenue - continued

        If the contract includes two or more performance obligations, at contract inception, the Group
        allocates the transaction price to single performance obligation according to relative proportion of
        the stand-alone selling prices of the goods or services promised by single performance obligation.
        However, where there is conclusive evidence that the contract discount or variable consideration
        is only related to one or more (not all) performance obligations in the contract, the Group shall
        allocate the contract discount or variable consideration to relevant one or more performance
        obligations. The stand-alone selling price is the price at which the Group would sell a promised
        good or service separately to a customer. If a stand-alone selling price is not directly observable,
        the Group shall consider all information that is reasonably available to the Group and maximize
        the use of observable inputs and apply estimates methods consistently in similar circumstances.

        If the contract includes significant financing component, the Group determines the transaction
        price based on the amount payable under the assumption that the customer pays that amount
        payable in cash when "control" of the goods or services is obtained by the customer. The
        difference between the transaction price and the contract consideration shall be amortized within
        the contract period using effective interest rate. If the Group expects, at contract inception, that the
        period between when the Group transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the
        customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less, the Group needs not to consider
        the significant financing component.

        Principal and agent

        The Group determines whether it is a principal or an agent at the time of the transaction based on
        whether it owns the "control" of the goods or services before the transfer of such goods or
        services to the customer. The Group is a principal if it controls the specified good or service
        before that good or service is transferred to a customer, and the revenue shall be recognized based
        on the total consideration received or receivable; otherwise, the Group is an agent, and the
        revenue shall be recognized based on the amount of commission or handling fee that is expected
        to be charged, and such amount is determined based on the net amount of the total consideration
        received or receivable after deducting the prices payable to other related parties or according to
        the established commission amount or proportion.

        Costs to fulfill a contract

        If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of other standard other than
        new standards for revenue, the Group shall recognized an asset from the costs incurred to fulfill a
        contract only if those costs meet all of the following criteria: (1) the costs relate directly to a
        contract or to an anticipated contract that the Group can specifically identify; (2) the costs
        generate or enhance resources of the entity that will be used in satisfying performance
        obligations in the future; and (3) the costs are expected to be recovered. The asset mentioned
        above shall be amortized on a basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the
        goods or services to which the asset relates and recognized in profit or loss for the period.

        Impairment of contract costs

        In determination of impairment losses of assets related to contract costs, firstly impairment losses
        of other assets related to the contract recognized based on other relevant accounting standards;
        secondly, the Group shall recognized an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying amount of
        an asset exceeds: (1) the remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in
        exchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates; less; the estimated costs that relate
        to providing those goods or services.

        The Group shall, after the impairment has been provided, recognized in profit or loss a reversal of
        some or all of an impairment loss previously recognized when the impairment conditions no
        longer exist or have improved. The increased carrying amount of the asset shall not exceed the
        carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognized
        previously.

        25. Government grants

        Government grants are transfer of monetary assets or non-monetary assets from the government to
        the Group at no consideration. A government grant is recognized only when the Group can
        comply with the conditions attached to the grant and the Group will receive the grant.

        If a government grant is in the form of a transfer of a monetary asset, it is measured at the amount
        received or receivable.

        25.1 The accounting treatment of government grants related to assets

        Government grants, such as special funds for modern logistics project and special funds for
        energy-saving and emission reduction of transportation, are government grants related to assets as
        they are all related to the construction and use of assets.

        A government grant related to an asset is recognized as deferred income, and evenly amortized to
        profit or loss over the useful life of the related asset.

        The Group's government grant, such as financial support funds of business tax converted to VAT
        and reward for energy saving, if used to compensate the related expenses or losses to be incurred
        in subsequent periods, is determined to be government grant relating to income.

        A government grant relating to income, if used to compensate the related cost, expenses or losses
        to be incurred in subsequent periods, is determined as deferred income and recognized in profit or
        loss over the periods in which the related costs are recognized; if used to compensate the related
        cost, expenses or losses already incurred, is recognized immediately in profit or loss for the
        period.

        A government grant relating to the Group's daily activities, is recognized in other income in line
        with the nature of economic transaction. A government grant not relating to the Group's daily
        activities, is recognized in non-operating income.

        26. Deferred tax assets/ deferred tax liabilities

        The income tax expenses include current income tax and deferred income tax.

        26.1 Current income tax

        At the balance sheet date, current income tax liabilities (or assets) for the current and prior periods
        are measured at the amount expected to be paid (or recovered) according to the requirements of
        tax laws.

        26.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities

        For temporary differences between the carrying amounts of certain assets or liabilities and their
        tax base, or between the nil carrying amount of those items that are not recognized as assets or
        liabilities and their tax base that can be determined according to tax laws, deferred tax assets and
        liabilities are recognized using the balance sheet liability method.

        Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred
        tax assets for deductible temporary differences are recognized to the extent that it is probable that
        taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
        However, for temporary differences associated with the initial recognition of goodwill and the
        initial recognition of an asset or liability arising from a transaction (not a business combination)
        that affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profits (or deductible losses) at the time of
        transaction, no deferred tax asset or liability is recognized.

        26.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities - continued

        For deductible losses and tax credits that can be carried forward, deferred tax assets are
        recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
        which the deductible losses and tax credits can be utilized.

        Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with
        investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group
        is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the
        temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from
        deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only
        recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable profits against which to utilize
        the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable
        future.

        At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates
        applicable in the period in which the asset is realized or the liability is settled according to tax
        laws.

        Current and deferred tax expenses or income are recognized in profit or loss for the period, except
        when they arise from transactions or events that are directly recognized in other comprehensive
        income or in equity, in which case they are recognized in other comprehensive income or in
        equity, and when they arise from business combinations, in which case they adjust the carrying
        amount of goodwill.

        At the balance sheet date, the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed and reduced if it
        is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in the future to allow the
        benefit of deferred tax assets to be utilized. Any such reduction in amount is reversed when it
        becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

        26.3 Offset of income tax

        When the Group has a legal right to settle on a net basis and intends either to settle on a net basis
        or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, current tax assets and current tax
        liabilities are offset and presented on a net basis.

        When the Group has a legal right to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis, and
        deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation
        authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle
        current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and liabilities simultaneously,
        in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected
        to be reversed, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset and presented on a net
        basis.

        27. Leases

        Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the
        risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

        27.1 The accounting treatment of operating leases

        27.1.1 The Group as lessee under operating leases

        Operating lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant
        lease, and are either included in the cost of related asset or charged to profit or loss for the period.
        Initial direct costs incurred are charged to profit or loss for the period. Contingent rents are
        charged to profit or loss in the period in which they are actually incurred.

        27.1.2 The Group as lessor under operating leases

        Rental income from operating leases is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the
        term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs with more than an insignificant amount are
        capitalized when incurred, and are recognized in profit or loss on the same basis as rental income
        over the lease term. Other initial direct costs with an insignificant amount are charged in profit or
        loss in the period in which they are incurred. Contingent rents are charged to profit or loss in the
        period in which they actually arise.

        28.   Discontinued operation

        Discontinued operation refers to the separately identifiable components that have been disposed
        of or classified as held for sale and meet one of the following conditions:

        (1)   The component represents an independent main business or a major business area;
        (2)   This component is a part of a related plan that intends to dispose an independent main
              business or a separate main operating area;
        (3)   This component is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for resale.

        29. Safety Production Cost

        According to the Administrative Rules on Provision and Use of Enterprise Safety Production Cost
        jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Work Safety on 14
        February 2012 (filed as Cai Qi [2012] No. 16), safety production cost set aside by the Group is
        directly included in the cost of relevant products or recognized in profit or loss for the period, as
        well as the special reserve. When safety production cost set aside is utilized, if the costs incurred
        can be categorized as expenditure, the costs incurred should be charged against the special reserve.
        If the costs set aside are used to build up fixed assets, the costs should be charged to construction
        in progress, and reclassified to fixed assets when the safety projects are ready for intended use.
        Meantime, expenditures in building up fixed assets are directly charged against the special reserve
        with the accumulated depreciation recognized at the same amount. Depreciation will not be made
        in the future period on such fixed assets.

        30.   Critical judgments in applying accounting policies and key assumptions and
              uncertainties in accounting estimates

        In the application of accounting policies as set out in Note (III), the Company is required to make
        judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of items in the financial
        statements that cannot be measured accurately, due to the internal uncertainty of the operating
        activities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experiences of the
        Company's management as well as other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results
        may differ from these estimates.

        The Company regularly reviews the judgments, estimates and assumptions on a going concern
        basis. Changes in accounting estimates which only affect the current period should be recognized
        in current period; changes which not only affect the current but the future periods should be
        recognized in current and future periods. At the balance sheet date, key assumptions and
        uncertainties that are likely to lead to significant adjustments to the book values of assets and
        liabilities in the future are:

        Goodwill impairment

        For the purpose of impairment testing, the present value of the expected future cash flows of the
        assets group or portfolio including goodwill shall be calculated, and such expected future cash
        flows shall be estimated. Meantime, a pre-tax rate shall be determined that should reflect the time
        value of money on the current market and the specific interest risks.

        Recognition of deferred tax

        The Group calculates and makes provision for deferred income tax liabilities according to the
        profit distribution plan of subsidiaries, associates and the joint ventures subject to the related law.
        For retained earnings which are not allocated by the investment company, since the profits will be
        used to invest the company's daily operation and future development, no deferred income tax
        liabilities are recognized. If the actually distributed profits in the future are more or less than those
        expected, corresponding deferred tax liabilities will be recognized or reversed at the earlier of
        profits distribution date and the declaration date, in the profit and loss of the current period.

        Deferred tax assets are recognized based on the deductible temporary difference and the
        corresponding tax rate, to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will be
        available for the deductible temporary difference. If in the future the actual taxable income does
        not coincide with the amount currently expected, the deferred tax assets resulting will be
        recognized or reversed in the period when actually incurred, in profit or loss.

      The Group has adopted the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.22 – Recognition
      and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Cai Kuai [2017] No. 7), the Accounting Standards
      for Business Enterprises No.23—Transfer of Financial Assets (Cai Kuai [2017] No. 8), the
      Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.24 – Hedging Accounting (Cai Kuai [2017] No.
      9) and the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No.37 – Presentation of Financial
      Instruments (Cai Kuai [2017] No. 14) (the four standards mentioned above are collectively
      referred to as "New Standards of Financial Instruments" while the "Original Revenue Standard"
      refers to the standards of financial instruments prior to amendment.) since 1 January 2018. At the
      same time, the Group has adopted the New Revenue Standards revised by MoF in 2017 since 1
      January 2018.

      (1)     New Standards for Revenue

      The New Standards for Revenue have introduced the 5-step method for recognition and
      measurement of revenue and added more instructions on specific transactions (or events). The
      accounting policies for recognition and measurement of revenue is referred to Note III 24. The
      New Standards for Revenue require the entity to adjust the retained earnings at the beginning of
      initial adoption (i.e. 1 January 2018) of the new standards for the cumulative affected figures and
      amounts of other relative items in the financial statements, and not to adjust information in
      comparable period. At the adoption of New Standards Revenue, the Group solely adjusts the
      cumulative affected figures in contract not yet been completed at the initial adoption date.

       Compared to Original Standards for Revenue, effects of implementation of New Standards for
       Revenue on relevant items of the Company's financial statements for the year are as follows:

                                                                                                          RMB

       (2)     New Standards of Financial Instruments

       In terms of the classification and measurement of financial assets, in accordance with the New
       Standards of Financial Instruments, an entity shall classify financial assets as subsequently
       measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through
       profit or loss on the basis of the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets and
       the entity's business model for managing the financial assets. The original classifications of
       financial assets, such as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments and-available-for-sale
       financial assets in the Original Standards of Financial Instruments are no longer adopted. For
       investments in non-tradable equity instruments, the entity shall generally classify them as
       measured at fair value through profit or loss, and for investments in unquoted equity instruments,
       the entity is allowed to designate them as measured at fair value through other comprehensive
       income provided that such designation is irrevocable and the accumulated changes in fair value
       initially recorded in other comprehensive income cannot be charged forward to profit or loss at
       disposal.

       In terms of the impairment of financial assets, financial assets classified as at amortized cost,
       financial assets classified as at fair value through other comprehensive profit, and contract assets
       are within the scope of New Standards of Financial Instruments. The New Standards of Financial
       Instruments require to replace the previous incurred credit loss model with the expected credit
       loss model. As required by the new impairment model, a three-phase model shall be adopted, so
       that provisions for credit losses will be recognized as the expected credit losses within 12 months
       or over the entire duration based on whether credit risks of relevant financial instruments have
       been increased significantly from the initial recognition. Provisions for impairments of accounts
       receivable, contract assets, and leasing receivables can be calculated at the expected credit losses
       over the entire duration.

      The Group made retrospective adjustment according to the New Standards of Financial
      Instruments for the recognition and measurement of financial instruments prior to 1 January 2018.
      The Group has not adjusted the comparative financial information. For the differences between
      the original carrying amount of financial instruments and the carrying amount of financial
      instruments measured by the New Standards of Financial Instruments, the Group adjusted the
      retained earnings or other comprehensive income at 1 January 2018. As at 1 January 2018, impacts
      of the New Standards of Financial Instruments to the consolidated financial statements are set out as

      32. Changes in significant accounting estimates

      (1)   Changes in accounting estimates and reasons

      As at 27 November 2018, the Company held the 8th temporary session of the 9th board of
      directors meeting in 2018 and the 5th temporary session of the 9th board of supervisors meeting
      in 2018, and reviewed and approved the Proposal on Changes in Accounting Estimates of Fixed
      Assets. The Company reviewed the estimated useful life and estimated net residual value of fixed
      assets based on the current performance and use status of fixed assets. In order to more
      objectively and fairly reflect the financial position and operating results of the Group, it is decided
      to adjust the depreciation years of the Group's fixed assets and the net residual value rate of all
      fixed assets within the scope of the Group's consolidation(expected new subsidiaries which
      changes in the scope of consolidation). The details of adjustments are as follows:

      (a)   Adjustments of fixed assets in depreciation years

                           Category                         Useful life before adjustment   Useful life after adjustment

      (2)    Financial effect of changes in accounting estimates

      The above adjustments of fixed assets in depreciation years and net residual rate have been
      implemented since December 1, 2018.

      reduced the consolidated net profit in 2018 by RMB 38,076,037.04, and reduced the

     Note 1: As at 6 February 2018, China Merchants Union (BVI) Limited (hereinafter referred to as
             "CMU"), a joint venture between the Group and China Merchants Group (Hong Kong)
             Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "CMHK"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary Gold
             Newcastle Property Holding Pty Limited (hereinafter referred to as "Gold Newcastle")
             signed an acquisition agreement. The agreement stipulates that the Group will purchase
             from CMU its wholly-owned subsidiaries Gold Newcastle and Gold Newcastle's joint
             ventures Port of Newcastle Investments (Holdings) Pty Limited, Port of Newcastle
             Investments (Property Holdings) Pty Limited, Port of Newcastle Investments ( Holdings)
             Trust, Port of Newcastle Investments (Property Holdings) Trust (hereinafter collectively
             referred to as "Port of Newcastle") is a 50% interest, and thus Port of Newcastle
             becomes a joint venture of the Group.

              Port of Newcastle is made up of several entities and trusts, and has acquired all the rights
              and interests of the largest port on the east coast of Australia for about 98 years since 30
              May 2014 via lease and sublease. Gold Newcastle is an entity established in Australia by
              CMU in order to hold a number of assets, including Port of Newcastle. The remaining
              50% equity of Port of Newcastle is held by independent third parties.

              The transaction was completed this year with a final consideration of AUD 605 million
              (RMB 2,944,265,945.15), including an interest-bearing shareholder loan of AUD 162.5
              million (RMB 783,823,491.63) from CMU to Port of Newcastle.

              The Group believes that the Group and other joint venture parties jointly control Port of
              Newcastle. Therefore, the Group accounts for Port of Newcastle as a joint venture.

     Note 2: In 2018, the Group purchased 72,199,132 shares of Shanghai International Port (Group)
             Co., Ltd. directly from the open market. As of 31 December 2018, the equity held by the
             Group in Shanghai International Port (Group) Co., Ltd. has increased from 26.45% to
             26.77%.

     Note 3: It was jointly established on 18 December 2018 by the Company’s subsidiary Chiwan
             Wharf Holdings (Hong Kong) Limited and related parties CMHK, Jumbo Pacific
             Holdings Limited, China Merchants Expressway Network & Technology Holdings Co.,
             Ltd., China Merchants Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., and Sinotrans(HK)Logistics Co.,
             Ltd. The registered capital is RMB 3,500 million, among which Chiwan Wharf Holdings
             (Hong Kong) Limited subscribed and contributed RMB 525 million with shareholding
             proportion of 15%.

     16.      Goodwill - continued

     (2)         Details of goodwill impairment

     The Group conducts impairment testing on the entire group of subsidiaries that generate goodwill
     as an asset group. The recoverable amount of each subsidiary that generates goodwill is
     determined by the present value of the estimated future cash flows of each subsidiary. The
     management of the Group estimates the future cash flows based on the 5-year detailed forecast
     period and the subsequent forecast period. The estimated future cash flows for the detailed
     forecast period are based on the business plan established by the management; the expected future
     cash flows for the subsequent forecast period are determined in conjunction with the level of the
     final year of the detailed forecast period, combined with the Group's business plans, industry
     trends and inflation rates. The key assumptions used by the Group in estimating future cash flows
     include growth in business volume, gross profit margin and discount rate. After the impairment
     test, the management of the Group believes that any reasonable change in the above assumptions
     will not result in the book value of the net assets of the subsidiaries generating the goodwill being
     lower than the recoverable amount.

     Note: Shantou China Merchants Port Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, provides
           supplementary post-employment benefit plans for retirees on 31 October 2016.

              The Group hired a third-party actuary to estimate the present value of its above-mentioned
              retirement benefit plan obligations in an actuarial manner based on the expected
              cumulative welfare unit method. The Group recognizes the Group's liabilities based on the
              actuarial results. The relevant actuarial gains or losses are included in other comprehensive
              income and cannot be reclassified into profit or loss in the future. Past service costs are
              recognized in profit or loss for the period in which the plan is revised. The net interest is
              determined by multiplying the defined benefit plan net debt or net assets by the
              appropriate discount rate.

       Note: As at 4 September 2017, the Group signed an agreement with TCP and its subsidiaries
              ("TCP Group") and multiple independent third parties who were former TCP shareholders.
              Pursuant to the agreement, the Group subscribed for 90% of the issued share capital of
              TCP at a price of BRL 2,811,941,923.95 (equivalent to RMB 5,468,066,151.65), and the
              Group issued a put option to the minority shareholders of the TCP group (hereinafter
              referred to as "option holders"). The relevant rights may be exercised two years after
              February 23, 2018. The option holder has the right to sell the stocks of TCP Group it holds
              in cash during the exercise period and to require the Group to purchase all remaining
              shares of the TCP Group it holds. At recognition, the fair value of the put option on the
              date of purchase is equivalent to RMB 154,062,029.73. The Group also acquires call
              options to purchase the entire remaining equity of the TCP Group held by the option
              holder. The above transaction was completed on February 23, 2018. Since then, the Group
              has been authorized to assign most of the board members of the TCP Board of Directors,
              and the Board of Directors is the authority that dominates the TCP-related business.
              Therefore, the Group is able to control TCP and incorporate it into the consolidated
              financial statements of the Group.

       Note: The Company and the acquiree are ultimately controlled by China Merchants Group
             Limited ("CMG") both before and after the combination, and that control is not transitory.

                  Prior to June 8, 2018, CMPH indirectly held 33.58% of the company's shares, and at the
                  same time entrusted to manage 32.52% of the shares held by Nanshan Group, and held a
                  total of 66.10% of the voting rights of the company, which can control the company. Due
                  to the existence of a certain degree of horizontal competition between CMPH and the
                  Company, in order to completely solve the problem of horizontal competition, the
                  Company, CMPH and related parties implemented major asset restructuring transactions
                  during the year.

       (3)   Contingent consideration

       As at 19 June 2018 and 9 July 2018, the Company and CMID signed the "Compensation
       Agreement for the Issuance of Shares to Purchase Assets" and the "Supplemental Agreement for
       the Issuance of Assets for Impairment Compensation Agreement". It is agreed that the company
       will conduct an impairment test in the year of completion of the transaction of the CMPH Shares
       held by CMID by way of issuance of shares (hereinafter referred to as "impairment compensation
       period"). During the period of the value compensation period, the value at the end of any
       accounting year is less than the purchase price, and CMID compensates the company for the
       impairment of the company's shares.

       The valuation method of the underlying asset value adopts the comparable company method and
       the comparable transaction method, and combines the value of the underlying asset's net asset
       value and asset status, profit level, and industry status as reference.

       As at 31 December 2018, after calculation and estimation, the management of the Company
       considered that there was no impairment of the underlying assets during the year and the fair
       value of the contingent consideration was zero.

(VIII)    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

         The Group's major financial instruments include cash and bank balances, notes receivable,
         account receivables, interest receivable, other receivables, available-for-sale financial assets,
         account payables, interest payable, dividends payable, other payables, other current liabilities,
         bonds payable and long-term payables. Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in
         Notes (V). The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to
         mitigate these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to
         ensure the risks are monitored at a certain level.

         The Group adopts sensitivity analysis techniques to analyze how the entity's profit or loss and for
         the period and shareholders' equity would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk
         variables that were reasonably possible. As it is unlikely that risk variables will change in an
         isolated manner, and the interdependence between risk variables will have significant effect on
         the amount ultimately influenced by the changes in a single risk variable, the following items are
         based on the assumption that each risk variable has changes on a stand-alone basis.

     1.Risk management objectives and policies

     The Group's risk management objectives are to achieve proper balance between risks and yield,
     minimize the adverse impacts of risks on the Group's operation performance, and maximize the
     benefits of the shareholders and other equity investors. Based on these risk management
     objectives, the Group's basic risk management strategy is to identify and analyze the industry's
     exposure to various risks, establish appropriate bottom line for risk tolerance, implement risk
     management, and monitors these exposures to ensure the risks are monitored at a certain level.

     1.1   Market risk

     1.1.1 Currency risk

     Currency risk is the risk that losses will occur because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The
     Group's exposure to the currency risk is primarily associated with FCFA and HKD. Several of the
     Group's subsidiaries have purchases and sales denominated in HKD while the Group's other
     principal activities are denominated and settled in RMB. As at 31 December 2018, the balance of
     the Group's assets and liabilities are both denominated in functional currency, except that balance
     of assets set out below is in HKD and USD. Currency risk arising from the foreign currency
     balance of assets and liabilities may have impact on the Group's performance.
                                                                                              Unit: RMB

     The Group closely monitors the effects of changes in the foreign exchange rates on the Group's
     currency risk exposures. According to the current risk exposure and judgment of the exchange
     rate movements, management considers the probable heavy loss resulted from foreign exchange
     rate fluctuation to be fairly low.

     Sensitivity analysis on currency risk

     The assumption for the sensitivity analysis on currency risk is that all the cash flow hedges and
     hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation are highly effective. On the basis of the above
     assumption, where all other variables are held constant, the reasonably possible changes in the
     foreign exchange rate may have the following pre-tax effect on the profit or loss for the period or
     equity:
                                                                                               Unit: RMB

     1.1.2 Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows

     Risk derived from changes in cash flows of financial instruments is mainly related to bank loans
     with floating interest rate. (See Notes (V) 20 and Notes (V) 29). This Group takes the measure of
     maintaining the floating interest rate of the bank loans, as a way to reduce the interest rate risk
     arising from changes in fair value.

     Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk

     Sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk is based on the following assumptions:

            Fluctuations of market interest rate can affect the interest income or expense of a financial
            instrument with floating interest rate.
            For a financial instrument at fair value with fixed interest rate, the fluctuations of market interest
            rate can only affect its interest income or expense.
            For a derivative financial instrument recognized as hedging instrument, the fluctuations of market
            interest rate affects its fair value and interest rate hedging estimation are effective and efficient.
            Market interest rate at the balance sheet date is adopted to calculate fair value changes of derivative
            financial instruments and other financial assets and liabilities under discounted cash flow method.

                                                                126

     1.1.3 Other price risk

     Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value by the Group at the balance sheet
     date. Hence the Group takes risk of changes in the securities market. The Group closely monitors
     the effects of changes in the foreign exchange prices on the Group's equity investment securities.
     The Group has not taken any measures to reduce prices risk of equity investment securities.

     1.2 Credit risk

     As at 31 December 2018, the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a
     financial loss to the Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties and
     financial guarantees issued by the Group is arising from the carrying amount of the respective
     recognized financial assets as stated in the consolidated balance sheet. For financial instruments
     measured at fair value, the carrying amount reflects the exposure to risks but not the maximum
     exposure to risks; the maximum exposure to risks would vary according to the future changes in
     fair value.

     In order to minimize the credit risk, the Group has delegated a team responsible for determination
     of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action
     is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each
     individual trade debt at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are
     made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the management of the Group considers that the
     Group's credit risk is significantly reduced.

     The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit
     ratings.

     The Group adopted necessary policies to make sure that all clients and customers are attributed
     with merit credit records.

                                                              127

       The fair value of other investments in equity instruments that are measured at fair value through
       profit or loss or other comprehensive income is determined using valuation methods such as
       discounted cash flow method, net assets method, and comparative method of listed company. At
       the time of valuation, the Group needs to estimate future cash flows, credit risk, market volatility
       and correlation, select an appropriate discount rate and consider the discount premium adjustment.

       4.    Information of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair
             value

       Financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value include notes and
       accounts receivable, other receivables, Short-term borrowings, notes and accounts payable, other
       receivables, long-term borrowings, bonds payable, long-term payables.

       The management considers that the carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities measured at
       amortized cost is approximately equal to the fair value of financial assets and liabilities.

       The fair value of note payable which has active market price should be determined by the active
       market price. The fair value of long-term borrowings, long-term payable and note payable without
       active market price, should be determined by the net present value of cash flow stated in contract
       and the discount rate which has the same rank of credit.

        Note 1:As at 31 December 2018, the TCP Group had significant contingent liabilities arising from
               pending legal proceedings in Brazil in respect of disputes with local tax authorities,
               employees or former employees of TCP Group and other parties, amounting to
               RMB323,559,335.68 (31 December 2017: nil), which, based on the latest estimates of the
               management of the Group, is not probable that outflows of resources embodying economic
               benefits will be required to settle these obligations. Accordingly, no provision for
               litigation claims in respect of the above cases has been made in the condensed
               consolidated interim financial information. A counter indemnity in favor of the Group is
               executed by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to which the latter indemnify to the Group
               for the above contingent liabilities for and up to predetermined amounts and specified
               length of time.

        Note 2:As at 31 December 2018, the other shareholder of an associate of which the Group held as
               to 49% of its issued share capital provided corporate guarantees to the full amount for
               certain loan facilities granted by banks to and other obligations borne by the relevant
               associate. A counter indemnity in favor of the other shareholder of the associate is
               executed pursuant to which the Group undertakes to indemnify the other shareholder 49%
               of the liabilities in the aggregate amount of RMB 94,437,025.00 arising from the above
               loan facilities and other obligations.

               In addition to above, the Group also provides guarantees for banking facilities granted to
               and other obligations borne by associates of the Group. The total amount guaranteed by
               the Group is RMB 343,160,000.00 and the aggregate amount utilized by the relevant
               associates amounted to RMB 24,192,780.00 specified in Notes (V) 9.

               During the year ended 31 December 2018, the directors assessed the risk of default of the
               associates in serving the aforesaid loan facilities and other obligations at the end of the
               reporting period and considered the risk to be insignificant and it is not likely that any
               guaranteed amount will be claimed.

        In addition to above, no material contingencies that should be disclosed by the Group as at 31
        December 2018.

     (1)   Basis for determining and accounting treatments of reporting segments

     internal reports in order to assess performance, allocate resources and determine the operating
     segments.

     perspectives.

     2.    Segment reporting - continued

     (1)   Basis for determining and accounting treatments of reporting segments - continued

     Each of the segments under ports operation include the operations of a number of ports in various
     locations within the geographic locations, each of which is considered as a separate operating
     segment by the CODM. For the purpose of segment reporting, these individual operating
     segments have been aggregated into reportable segments on geographic basis in order to present a
     more systematic and structured segment information. To give details of each of the operating
     segments, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, would result in particulars of excessive
     length.

     Bonded logistics operation and other operations include a number of different operations, each of
     which is considered as a separate but insignificant operating segment by the CODM. For
     segment reporting, these individual operating segments have been aggregated according to the
     natures of their operations to give rise to more meaningful presentation.

     There are no material sales or other transactions between the segments.

     As at 31 December 2018, around 64% of The Group's non-current assets other than financial
     instruments and deferred tax assets are located in Mainland China.
