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.
(hereinafter referred to as "the Company"), which comprise the consolidated and company balance
sheets as at 31 December 2019, 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 2019, 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) 11 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 2019, the Company's income from investment in associates/joint ventures under equity
method amounts to RMB 3,727,850,763.22. As at 31 December 2019, the carrying amount of long-
term equity investment of the Company in associates/joint ventures amounts to RMB
57,916,539,383.26. 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.
     Principal audit procedures we performed for key audit matters are as follows:



                                                                                                      -1-

                                                                                    (Page 2, 6 pages)
III. Key Audit Matters - continued

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

(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.




                                                                                                    -2-

                                                                                    (Page 3, 6 pages)
III. Key Audit Matters - continued

2.   Goodwill impairment

As disclosed in Notes (V) 21 to the consolidated financial statements, as at 31 December 2019, the
goodwill in the consolidated financial statements of the Company was RMB 8,023,659,694.81. The
management of the Company used the net amount of fair value less costs of disposal or 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, of which the fair value assessment is based on the
market approach, and the forecast of future cash flows and the calculation of the present value
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.

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

(1) Assess reasonability of division of asset group and combination of asset group management made
    by management;

(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.

(9) Reviewed whether the method to assess the fair value less costs of disposal was appropriate.




                                                                                                    -3-

                                                                                     (Page 4, 6 pages)

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.

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.




                                                                                                       -4-

                                                                                       (Page 5, 6 pages)

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.

(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 (including the disclosures), structure and content of the
      financial statements, 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.


                                                                                                        -5-

                                                                                                         (Page 6, 6 pages)

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

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.

accounting principles and practices generally accepted in other countries and jurisdictions. In case the English version does not
conform to the Chinese version, the Chinese version prevails.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019


(I)    GENERAL INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY

       China Merchants Port Group Company Limited was a stock limited company incorporated in
       Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, on 16 January 1993.

       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 14 April 2020.

       See Notes (VII) "Equity in other entities" for details of the scope of consolidated financial
       statements in the current period are subsidiaries acquired through business combination under
       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).

       Going concern

       As at 31 December 2019, the Group had total current liabilities in excess of total current assets of
       RMB 6,933,328,647.40. On 31 December 2019, the Group had available and unused line of
       credit amounting to RMB 46,602,858,550.04, which is greater than the balance of the net current
       liabilities. The Group can obtain financial support from the available line of credit when needed.
       Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

       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.




                                                                                                      - 19 -

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019


(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.

        3.    Operating cycle

        An operating cycle refers to the period since when an enterprise purchases assets for processing
        purpose till the realization of those assets in cash or cash equivalents. The Group are principally
        engaged in the rendering of port service, bonded logistics service and other business such as
        property development and investment with an operating cycle of one year.

        4.    Functional currency

        Renminbi ("RMB") is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company
        and its domestic subsidiaries operate. Therefore, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries
        choose RMB as their functional currency. The Company's subsidiaries choose their functional
        currency on the basis of the primary economic environment in which they operate. The Company
        adopts RMB to prepare its financial statements.

        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.

        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.




                                                                                                         - 21 -

              under common control - continued

        5.2   Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued

        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.

        When a business combination contract provides for the acquirer's recovery of consideration
        previously paid contingent on one or multiple future event(s), the Group recognises the contingent
        consideration provided in the contract as an asset, as part of the consideration transferred in the
        business combination, and includes it in the cost of business combination at the fair value at the
        acquisition date. Within 12 months after the acquisition, where the contingent consideration needs
        to be adjusted as new or further evidences are obtained in respect of the circumstances existed at
        the acquisition date, the adjustment shall be recognised and the amount originally recognised in
        goodwill or non-operating income shall be adjusted. A change in or adjustment to the contingent
        consideration under other circumstances shall be accounted for in accordance with Accounting
        Standard for Business Enterprise No. 22 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement
        and Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No. 13 – Contingencies. Any change or
        adjustment is included in profit or loss for the current period.

        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.




                                                                                                            - 22 -

        5.2   Business combinations not involving enterprises under common control and goodwill - continued

        If either the fair values of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired in a
        combination or the cost of business combination can be determined only provisionally by the end
        of the period in which the business combination was effected, the acquirer recognises and
        measures the combination using those provisional values. Any adjustments to those provisional
        values within twelve months after the acquisition date are treated as if they had been recognised
        and measured on the acquisition date.

        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

        6.1   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.

        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.

                                                                                                         - 23 -

        6.1   Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued

        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.

        Where the accounting policies / accounting periods adopted by subsidiaries are inconsistent with
        those of the Company, appropriate adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements
        in accordance with the accounting policies of 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.




                                                                                                          - 24 -

        6.1   Preparation of consolidated financial statements - continued

        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.

        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) 16.3.2, a long-term equity investment is subject to for using the equity
        method.




                                                                                                          - 25 -

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

        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(generally due within 3 months since the acquisition date),
        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; (3) exchange differences arising from changes in the carrying amounts (other
        than the amortised cost) of monetary items at fair value through other comprehensive income are
        recognised as other comprehensive income.

        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.




                                                                                                         - 26 -

        9.1   Transactions denominated in foreign currencies - continued

        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 except for unappropriated profit 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 the average exchange rates of
        the accounting period of the consolidated financial statements; the opening balance of
        unappropriated profit is the translated closing balance of the previous year's unappropriated profit;
        the closing balance of unappropriated profit is calculated and presented on the basis of each
        translated income statement and profit distribution item. 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 closing 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.




                                                                                                         - 27 -

        In case of a disposal of part equity investments or other reason leading to lower interest
        percentage in foreign operations but does not result in the Group losing control over a foreign
        operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences arising on translation of
        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 "revenue standards"), 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, accounts receivable, other receivables,
        debt investments, and long-term 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.

        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.




                                                                                                           - 29 -

        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.

               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.

        Financial assets at FVTPL assets other than derivative financial assets are presented as "held-for-
        trading financial assets". Such financial assets at FVTPL which may fall due more than one year
        (or without fixed term) since the balance sheet date and will be held more than one year are
        presented as other non-current financial assets.

        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.




                                                                                                          - 30 -

        Changes in fair value of non-trading equity instrument investments designated as financial assets
        at FVTOCI are recognized in other comprehensive income, and 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.

        10.1.3 Financial assets at FVTPL

        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 assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets
        classified as at FVTOCI, lease receivables, contract assets, loan commitments that are not
        financial liabilities at FVTPL, financial liabilities not measured at FVTPL, financial guarantee
        contracts arising from transfer of financial assets which does not satisfy derecognition criteria or
        continuing involvement of transferred financial assets.

        The Group makes a loss allowance against amount of lifetime ECL of the contract assets, notes
        receivable and accounts receivable arising from transactions adopting the Revenue Standard as
        well as lease receivables arising from transactions adopting ASBE No. 21- Leases.

        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.

                                                                                                         - 31 -

        10.2 Impairment of financial instruments - continued

        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;



                                                                                                           - 32 -

        (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;
        (12)    Expected changes in the loan documentation including an expected breach of contract that
                may lead to covenant waivers or amendments, interest payment holidays, interest rate
                step-ups, requiring additional collateral or guarantees, or other changes to the contractual
                framework of the financial instrument;
        (13)    Significant changes in the expected performance and behavior of the debtor;
        (14)    Changes in the entity’s credit management approach in relation to the financial instrument;
        (15)    Past due of contract payment.

        The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly
        since initial recognition if the financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk at the
        balance sheet date. A financial instrument is determined to have lower credit risk if: i) it has a
        lower risk of default, ii) the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow
        obligations in the near term and iii) adverse changes in economic and business conditions in the
        longer term may, but will not necessarily, reduce the ability of the borrower to fulfil its
        contractual cash flow obligations.

        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.



                                                                                                         - 33 -

        10.2    Impairment of financial instruments - continued

        10.2.3 Determination of expected credit loss

        Lease receivables are assessed for ECL individually by the Group. In addition, the Group uses
        provision matrix to calculate ECL for notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables,
        contract assets, debt investments and other debt investments 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.

        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 undrawn loan commitments (refer to Note III, 10.4.1.3 for the detail of accounting
               policies), the ECL is the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows
               that are due to the Group if the holder of the loan commitments draws down the loan, and
               the cash flows that the Group expects to receive if the loan is drawn down. The Group's
               estimation of the ECL for loan commitments is consistent with its expection of the loan
               commitments drawn down.
               For a financial guarantee contract (refer to Note III, 10.4.1.3 for the detail of accounting
               policies ), the expected losses is the present value of the expected payments to reimburse the
               holder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amounts that the Group expects to receive from
               the holder, the debtor or any other party..
               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.



                                                                                                         - 34 -

        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.

        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.




                                                                                                         - 35 -

        10.3 Transfer of financial assets - continued

        For a transfer of a financial asset in its entirety that satisfies the derecognition criteria, 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.

                                                                                                            - 36 -

        10.4.1.1 Financial liabilities at FVTPL- continued

        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.

        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.

        Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when the financial liabilities is arising from
        contingent consideration recognized by the Group as an acquirer in a business combination not
        involving enterprises under common control.




                                                                                                            - 37 -

        10.4.1.2 Other financial liabilities

        Except for financial liabilities, financial guarantee contracts and loan commitments arising from
        transfer of financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from
        continuing involvement in the transferred financial assets, other financial liabilities 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 and loan commitments

        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 or financial liabilities arising from transfer of
        financial assets that do not meet the derecognition criteria or those arising from continuing
        involvement in the transferred financial assets, and loan commitments to provide a loan at a
        below-market interest rate, which are not designated 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 the revenue standard.

        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.


                                                                                                        - 38 -

        10.4.2 Derecognition of financial liabilities - continued

        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.

        10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives

        Derivatives include forward exchange contracts, currency swaps, interest rate swaps and foreign
        exchange options, etc. Derivatives are initially measured at fair value at the date when the
        derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value.

        Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with a financial asset host are not separated by the
        Group. The hybrid contract shall apply to the relevant accounting standards regarding the
        classification of financial assets as a whole.

        Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with hosts that are not financial assets are separated and
        treated as separate derivatives by the Group when they meet the following conditions:

        (1) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to
            those of the host contract;
        (2) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the
            definition of a derivative.
        (3) the hybrid contracts are not measured at fair value through profit or loss.




                                                                                                          - 39 -

        10.5 Derivatives and embedded derivatives - continued

        For the embedded derivative separated from the host contracts, the Group accounts for the host
        contracts in the hybrid contracts with applicable accounting standards. When the embedded
        derivatives whose fair value cannot be measured reliably by the Group according to the terms and
        conditions of the embedded derivatives, the fair value of such derivatives are measured at the
        difference between the fair value of the hybrid contracts and the fair value of the host contracts.
        By adopting the above method, if the embedded derivative cannot be measured on a stand-alone
        basis at the time when acquired or at subsequent balance sheet dates, the hybrid instrument is
        designated as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss as a whole.

        10.6 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities

        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,
        financial assets and financial liabilities shall be presented separately in the balance sheet and shall
        not be offset.

        10.7 Reclassification of financial instruments

        When the Group changes the business model to manage the financial assets, the financial assets
        affected will be reclassified and no financial liabilities will be reclassified.

        The financial assets are reclassified by the Group and are accounted for prospectively since the
        date of reclassification (i.e. the first date of the initial reporting period after the business model of
        which the financial assets are reclassified by the enterprise is changed).

        Where a financial asset at amortised cost is reclassified as a financial assets at fair value through
        profit or loss ("FVTPL") by the Group, such financial asset is measured at fair value at the date of
        reclassification and the difference between the original carrying amount and the fair value is
        recognized in profit or loss for the period.

        Where a financial asset at amortised cost is reclassified as a financial asset at fair value through
        other comprehensive income("FVTOCI") by the Group, such financial asset is measured at the
        fair value at the date of reclassification, and the difference between the original amount and the
        fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income.

        Where a financial asset at FVTOCI is reclassified as a financial asset at amortised cost by the
        Group, the accumulated gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are
        transferred out and the fair value is adjusted as the fair value at the date of reclassification. The
        adjusted fair value is recognized as the new carrying amount, as if the financial asset had been
        measured at amortised cost.
                                                                                                            - 40 -

        such financial asset continues to be accounted for at fair value. At the same time, the accumulated
        gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are transferred to profit or
        loss for the period.

        Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at amortised cost by the
        Group, the fair value at the date of reclassification is recognized as the new account balance.

        Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified as a financial asset at FVTOCI by the Group,
        such financial asset continues to be measured at fair value.

        Where a financial asset at FVTPL is reclassified, the effective interest rate is determined on the
        basis of the fair value of the financial asset at the date of reclassification.

        11.     Accounts receivable

        The Group makes internal credit ratings on customers and determines expected losses rate of
        notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables. Basis for determining ratings and the
        expected losses rates are as follows:

                                                                                      Average expected loss

        12.   Accounts receivable financing

        Notes receivable classified to hedging instruments for the purpose of hedging, should be listed as
        accounts receivable financing within one year (including one year). If the term above one year, it
        should be listed as other investment on bonds. Related accounting policies refer to Note 10.

        13.   Inventories

        13.1 Categories of inventories

        Inventories include raw materials, merchandise and others. 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.

        13.2 Valuation method of inventories upon delivery

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

        13.3 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.

        13.4 Inventory count system

        The perpetual inventory system is maintained for stock system.

        13.5 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.

                                                                                                          - 42 -

        14.   Contract assets

        14.1 Recognition and criteria of contract assets

        A contract asset represents the Group's right to consideration in exchange for goods or services
        that the Group has transferred to a customer, and such right depends on factors other than the
        passage of time. The Group's unconditional right (only the passage of time is required) to
        consideration from the customer is separately presented as " accounts receivable".

        14.2 Determination and accounting treatments of expected credit losses ("ECL") for contract
        assets

        Refer to Note 3, 10.2 " Impairment of financial instruments" for determination and accounting
        treatments of expected credit losses for contract assets.

        15.   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.

        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.
        Asset impairment losses recognized before such assets are classified as held for sale will not be
        reversed.

        15.   Assets held for sale - continued

        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.

        If an asset or a disposal group has been classified as held for sale but the recognition criteria for
        non-current assets held for sale are no longer met, the Group shall cease to classify the asset or
        disposal group as held for sale. It shall be measured at the lower of (1) the carrying amount before
        the asset or disposal group was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation,
        amortisation or impairment that would have been recognised had the asset or disposal group not
        been classified as held for sale; and (2) the recoverable amount at the date of the decision not to
        sell.

        For equity investments in associates or joint ventures that are classified as held for sale but the
        recognition for non-current assets held for sale are no longer met, such investments are accounted
        for retrospectively using the equity method from the date when they classified as held for sale.
        The financial statements for the held-for-sale period are adjusted accordingly.

        16.   Long-term equity investments

        16.1 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.




                                                                                                          - 44 -

        16.2 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. Where equity interests in an acquiree are
        acquired in stages through multiple transactions ultimately constituting a business combination
        involving entities under common control, the acquirer shall determine if these transactions are
        considered to be a "package deal". If yes, these transactions are accounted for as a single
        transaction where control is obtained. If no, the initial investment cost of the long-term equity
        investment is the share of book value of owners' equity of the acquired entity in the ultimate
        controlling party's consolidated financial statements at the date of combination. The difference
        between the initial investment cost and the sum of carrying amount of equity investments
        previously held in the acquiree and the new investment cost is adjusted to capital reserve. If the
        balance of capital reserve is not sufficient to absorb the difference, any excess is adjusted to
        retained earnings. Other comprehensive income recognized for the previously held equity
        investments by accounting treatment of equity method or available-for-sale financial assets is not
        subject to accounting treatment temporarily.

        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 (ASBE No. 22) and the additional investment cost.




                                                                                                          - 45 -

        16.3 Subsequent measurement and recognition of profit or loss

        16.3.1 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.

        16.3.2 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.


                                                                                                           - 46 -

        16.3.2 A long-term equity investment accounted for using the equity method - continued

        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.

        16.4 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.

        17.   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.

                                                                                                         - 47 -

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

        17.   Investment properties - continued

        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.

        An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is
        permanently withdraw from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal.

        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.

        18.   Fixed assets

        18.1 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.

        18.2 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

        Port and terminal facilities              5-50 years               5.00               1.90-19.00
        Buildings                                10-50 years               5.00                1.90-9.50
        Machinery and equipment, furniture and
                                                 3-20 years               5.00                4.75-31.67

        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.

                                                                                                           - 48 -

        18.3 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.

        19.   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.

        20.   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.


                                                                                                         - 49 -

        21.   Intangible assets

        21.1 Valuation method and useful life of intangible assets

        An intangible asset is measured initially at cost. Upon being restructured into a stock company,
        the intangible assets initially 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. Intangible assets with uncertain service life will not be amortize. The
        terminal operating rights are amortized using the output method, that is, amortized through
        periods according to the ratio of the estimated minimum guaranteed throughput to the estimated
        minimum guaranteed total throughput during the operation period. When the estimated minimum
        guaranteed throughput cannot be measured reliably,the straight-line method will be used for
        amortization. An intangible asset with uncertain useful life will not be amortized. The
        amortization method, useful life and estimated net residual value of various intangible assets are
        as follows:

                                                                             Useful Life

                                                                               (year)
        Land use rights                     Straight-line method               40-50                -

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

        21.2 Research and development expenditure

        Expenditure during the research phase is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is
        incurred.

        Expenditure during the development phase that meets all of the following conditions at the same
        time is recognised as intangible asset. Expenditure during development phase that does not meet
        the following conditions is recognised in profit or loss for the period.

        (1)   it is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or
              sale;
        (2)   the Group has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
        (3)   the Group can demonstrate the ways in which the intangible asset will generate economic
              benefits, including the evidence of the existence of a market for the output of the intangible
              asset or the intangible asset itself or, if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of the
              intangible asset;
        (4)   the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the
              development and the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; and
        (5)   the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development phase can be
              reliably measured.


                                                                                                           - 50 -

        21.2 Research and development expenditure - continued

        If the expenditures cannot be distinguished between the research phase and development phase,
        the Group recognises all of them in profit or loss for the period.

        The costs of intangible assets generated by the internal research only include the total expenditure
        incurred for the period from the time point of capitalization to the intangible assets are ready for
        intended use. For the identical intangible asset, the expenditures recorded as expenses before they
        qualify for capitalization during the development process are not adjusted.

        22.   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, right-of-use 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.




                                                                                                          - 51 -

        ESTIMATES - continued

        23.   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.

        24.   Contract liabilities

        A contract liability represents the Group’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer
        for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the
        customer. A contract asset and a contract liability relating to the same contract are accounted for
        and presented on a net basis.

        25.   Employee benefits

        25.1 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.

        25.2 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.

        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.



                                                                                                         - 52 -

        25.     Employee benefits - continued

        25.2     The accounting treatment of post-employment benefits - continued

        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:

               Service cost (including current service cost, past service cost, as well as gains and losses on
               settlements);
               Net interest of net liabilities or assets of defined benefit plan (including interest income of
               planned assets, interest expenses of defined benefit plan liabilities and effect of asset ceiling);
               and
               Changes arising from remeasurement of net liabilities or net assets of defined benefit plans.

        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.

        25.3 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.

        26.     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.

                                                                                                            - 53 -

        ESTIMATES - continued

        27.   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.

        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 output 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.

        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.




                                                                                                       - 54 -

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

        27.   Revenue - continued

        For contracts that contain variable consideration(e.g. sales discount), the Group estimates the
        amount of consideration using either the expected value or the most likely amount.

        The transaction price that includes variable consideration is only to the extent that it is highly
        probable that such an inclusion will not result in a significant revenue reversal in the future when
        the uncertainty is subsequently resolved.

        At the end of each reporting period, the Group reevaluates the variable consideration included in
        the transaction price.

        For non-cash consideration from customer, the Group recognizes the transaction price based on
        the fair value of the non-cash consideration. Where the fair value of the non-cash consideration
        cannot be reasonably estimated, the Group recognizes the transaction price indirectly by reference
        to the stand-alone price of the promised goods or services promised transferred to the customer.

        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.

        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.

        Where payment is received in advance, the advance payment received shall be recorded as a
        liability and recognized as revenue when the relevant performance obligation is satisfied.

        The above amount will be recognized as revenue proportionately in accordance with the model of
        contractual rights exercised by the customer if (1) the Group's advance payment does not need to
        be returned, (2) the customer may waive all or part of its contractual rights, and (3) the Group
        expects to be entitled to the amount related to the contractual rights waived by the customer.
        Otherwise, the balance of the liabilities is recognized as revenue by the Group only when the
        possibility of the customer requesting the satisfaction of the remaining performance obligations is
        extremely remote.


                                                                                                          - 55 -

        28.   Contract costs

        28.1 Costs to fulfill a contract

        If the costs incurred in fulfilling a contract are not within the scope of other standard other than
        the revenue standard, 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.

        28.2 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; (2) 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.

        29.   Types and accounting methods of 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.

        29.1 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.



                                                                                                        - 56 -

        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.

        30.   Deferred tax assets/ deferred tax liabilities

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

        30.1 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.

        30.2 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.

        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.




                                                                                                             - 57 -

        30.2 Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities- continued

        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.

        30.3 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.




                                                                                                           - 58 -

        31.    Leases

        Lease is a contract that conveys the right to use an asset for a period of time in exchange for
        consideration.

        For contracts that are signed or modified after the date of initial application, at
        inception/modification of the contracts, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a
        lease. Unless the terms and conditions of the contract are changed, the Group does not reassess
        whether a contract is, or contains, a lease.

        31.1 The Group as Lessee

        31.1.1 Separating components of a lease

        If a contract contains a lease component and one or more non-lease components, the Group
        allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative
        stand-alone price of the lease components and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease
        components.

        31.1.2 Right-of-use assets

        Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at the
        commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises a right-of-use assets. The commencement
        date of the lease is the date on which a lessor makes an underlying asset available for use by the
        Group. The Group measures the right-of-use assets at cost. The cost of the right-of-use assets
        comprises:

              the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities;
              any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives;
              any initial direct costs incurred by the Group;
              an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying
              asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition
              required by the terms and conditions of the lease.

        Right-of-use assets are depreciated by the Group in accordance with the ASBE No.4 Fixed Assets.
        If the Group is reasonably certain, that the lease will transfer ownership of the underlying asset to
        the Group by the end of the lease term, the right-of-use assets is depreciated from the
        commencement date to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the right-of-
        use assets is depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of
        the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease term.

        The Group applies ASBE No. 8 Impairment of Assets, to determine whether the right-of-use
        assets are impaired and to account for any impairment loss identified.




                                                                                                           - 59 -

        31.1.3 Lease liabilities

        Except for short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, at the
        commencement date of the lease, the Group measures the lease liabilities at the present value of
        the lease payments that are not paid at that date. If the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be
        readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee's incremental borrowing rate.

        The lease payments comprise the following payments by the Group for the right to use the
        underlying asset during the lease term:

        (1)     fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives;
        (2)     variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;
        (3)     the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that
                option;
        (4)     payments for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising an
                option to terminate the lease;
        (5)     amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees.

        Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, are initially measured using the index
        or rate as at the commencement date. Variable lease payments not included in the measurement of
        the lease liabilities, are recognised in profit or loss, or in the cost of relevant assets, in the period
        of those payments.

        Interest on the lease liabilities in each period during the lease term is calculated by a constant
        periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liabilities.

        After the commencement date, if one of the following occurs, the lease liability is remeasured by
        the Group with the adjustment to the right-of-use asset. If the carrying amount of the right-of-use
        asset is reduced to zero and there is further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the
        remaining remeasurement should be recognized in profit or loss.

              there is a change in the lease term, or in the assessment of an option to purchase the
              underlying asset, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease
              term and the revised discount rate;
              there is a change in the amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or
              in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine
              those payments, the Group remeasures the lease liabilities, on the basis of the revised lease
              payments and the unchanged discount rate, unless the change in the lease payments results
              from a change in floating interest rates, in which case a revised discount is applied to the
              present value.




                                                                                                             - 60 -

        31.1.4 Short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value

        The Group elects not to recognise right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases and
        leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, i.e. port and terminal facilities, buildings,
        machinery and equipment, furniture and fixture and other equipment, motor vehicles and cargo
        ships, other short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. A shorts-
        term lease is a lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less. A
        lease for which the underlying asset is of low value is that, the value of the underlying asset is low
        when it is new. For short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, the
        Group recognises the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense or cost of
        relevant asset on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

        31.1.5 Lease modifications

        A lease modification should be accounted for as a separate lease if both of the following apply:

              the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more
              underlying assets; and
              the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone
              price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price
              according to the circumstances of the particular contract

        For a lease medication that is not accounted for as a separate lease, at the effective date of the
        lease modification, the Group should allocate the consideration in the modified contract,
        determine the lease term of the modified lease and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the
        revised payments using a revised discount rate.

        For lease modifications that decrease the scope of the lease or narrow the term of the lease, the
        Group should decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset with any gain or loss relating
        to the partial or full termination of the lease should be recognized in profit or loss. For
        remeasurement of lease liabilities from all other lease modifications, a corresponding adjustment
        is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset.

        31.2 The Group as Lessor

        31.2.1 Separating components of a lease

        For a contract that contains lease and non-lease components, the Group shall allocate the
        consideration in the contract in accordance with the allocation of the transaction price under the
        revenue standard, on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease components and the
        aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.



                                                                                                        - 61 -

        31.2.2 Classification of leases

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

        31.2.2.1 The Group as lessor under operating leases

        The Group recognises lease payments from operating leases as income on a straight-line basis.
        The Group capitalises initial direct costs incurred in obtaining an operating lease and recognises
        those costs as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.

        Variable lease receipts relating to an operating lease not included in the lease receipts are
        recognized in profit or loss by the Group when incurred.

        31.2.2.2 The Group as lessor under finance leases

        At the commencement date, the Group recognizes a finance lease receivable at the amount equal
        to the net investment in the lease with finance lease assets derecognized. The net investment in the
        lease is the sum of any unguaranteed residual value and lease payments receivable from the
        commencement date, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease.

        The amount of the lease payments receivable refers to the amount that the Group should collect
        from the lessee for the purpose of transferring the leased assets during the lease term, including:

              fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) paid by the lessee, less any lease
              incentives;
              variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;
              the exercise price of a purchase option, provided that it is reasonably determined that the
              lessee will exercise the option;
              the lessee exercises the amount to be paid for the termination of the lease option, provided
              that the lease term reflects the lessee's exercise of the option to terminate the lease;
              the residual value of the guarantee provided by the lessee, the party concerned with the
              lessee and the independent third party with the financial ability to perform the guarantee
              obligation.

        Variable payments receivable not included in the net investment in the lease are recognized in
        profit or loss when they arise.

        Interest income for each period over the lease term is recognized by the Group at the fixed
        periodic rate.

                                                                                                        - 62 -

        31.2.3 Subleases

        As a lessor of the sublease, the Group accounts for the original lease contract and the sublease
        contract as two separate contracts. The Group classifies the subleases based on the right-of-use
        assets generating from the original lease rather than the underlying assets of the original lease.

        31.2.4 Lease modifications

        The Group accounts for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date
        of the modification, considering any lease advances or receivables relating to the original lease as
        the lease receipts for the new lease.

        The Group should account for a modification to a finance lease as a separate lease if both:

              the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more
              underlying assets; and
              The consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-alone
              price for the increase in scope with any appropriate adjustment to that stand-alone price

        For a modification to a finance lease that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group
        should account for the modification as follows:

              if the lease would have been classified as an operating lease had the modification been effect
              at the inception date, the Group should account for the lease modification as a new lease
              from the effective date of the modification, and measure the carrying amount of the
              underlying asset as the net investment in the lease before the effective date of the lease
              modification.
              If the lease would have been classified as an operating lease if the modification had been in
              effect at the inception date, the Group should apply the requirements of contract
              modification and renegotiation under the ASBE No. 22 Financial Instruments: Recognition
              and Measurement.

        31.2.5 Sale and leaseback transactions

        31.2.5.1 The Group as the seller-lessee

        The Group applies the requirements of the revenue standard to determine whether the transfer of
        an asset is accounted for as a sale of that asset. If the transfer of an asset does not constitute a sale,
        the Group should continue to recognize the transferred assets and should recognize a financial
        liability equal to the transfer proceeds applying ASBE No. 22 Financial Instruments: Recognition
        and Measurement. If the transfer of an asset is a sale, the Group should measure the right-of-use
        asset arising from the leaseback at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that
        relates to the right of use, and recognize only the amount of any gain or loss that relates to the
        rights transferred to the lessor.



                                                                                                            - 63 -

        32.   Exchange of Non-Monetary Assets

        Where a non-monetary assets transaction satisfies the following conditions at the same time, it
        should calculated based on fair value. The transaction is commercial in nature and the fair value
        of the assets received or surrendered can be measured reliably. The fair value of the assets
        surrendered and relevant payable taxes shall be regarded as the transaction cost of the assets
        received. For assets surrendered, the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of
        the asset surrendered shall be recorded into the profit or loss of the current period. If any exact
        evidence showing that the fair value of the assets received is more reliable, the cost of assets
        received and surrendered shall be calculated as different way. For assets received, its cost shall be
        calculated based on fair value of assets received and relevant payable taxes. For the assets
        surrendered, the difference between the fair value of the assets received and the carrying value of
        the asset surrendered shall be recorded into the profit or loss of the current period.

        Where a non-monetary assets transaction does not meet the conditions as prescribed, the carrying
        value and relevant payable taxes of the assets surrendered shall be the cost of the assets received
        and no profit or loss is recognized.

        33.   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.

        Profits or losses from discontinued operations are presented separately in the income statement
        from continuing operations. Profits and losses from operations or disposals (e.g. impairment
        losses and reversals of discontinued operations) are presented under discontinued operations. For
        discontinued operations presented in the current period, the information previously under
        continuing operations is presented under discontinued operations by the Group in the financial
        statements for the comparable accounting period.

        34.   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.




                                                                                                        - 64 -

        35.   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.




                                                                                                           - 65 -

        (1)   New lease standard

        Since 1 January 2019 (the date of initial application), the Group has adopted the Accounting
        Standards for Business Enterprises No 21 – Leases (hereinafter referred to as "New Lease
        Standards") revised by MoF in 2018. The New Leases Standard improves the definition of leases;
        adds contents including identifying a lease, separating components of a lease and combination of
        leases; no longer adopts the original classification of operating leases and finance leases for
        lessees, requiring that in cases of all leases (except short-term leases and leases of low-value
        assets), a right-of-use asset and a lease liability shall be recognised at the commencement date of
        the lease; improves subsequent measurement of leases for lessors, adding accounting treatments
        for changes in the lease term or the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset; and
        sets out relevant principles for disclosure. Moreover, additional disclosure as lessor is presented.
        The revised accounting policies of the Group as lessee and lessor for the recognition and
        measurement of leases are set out in Note III. 30.

        For the lease contracts that already existed before the application of the standard, the Group
        chooses not to reassess whether the contract was, or contained, a lease on the date of initial
        application.

        The Group As lessee

        In accordance with the New Leases Standard, during the initial application of the standard, the
        accumulative amounts affected shall be adjusted in the opening balance (i.e. balance as at 1
        January 2019) of relevant items in the financial statements, with no impacts on comparative
        information.

        Except for the leases of low-value assets, for all the leases classified as operating leases before the
        initial application of the standard, the Group chooses one or more of the following practical
        expedients:

              Leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application are
              accounted for in the same way as short-term leases;
              application of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics on
              measuring lease liabilities;
              The measurement of right-of-use assets excludes any initial direct costs incurred;
              If the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease, the Group determines the
              lease term based on the actual usage of the options before the date of initial application and
              hindsight.
              As an alternative to impairment tests for right-of-use assets, assessed whether a contact
              containing a lease was an onerous contract before the date of initial application in
              accordance with the Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises No.13- Contingencies,
              and adjusted right-of-use assets based on the provision for impairment of loss recorded in
              the balance sheet before the date of initial application;
              Performance of accounting treatments subject to final arrangements of lease modification, if
              any, before the date of initial application.




                                                                                                         - 66 -

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

        36.   Changes in significant accounting policies and accounting estimates - continued

        (1)    New lease standard - continued

        On the date of initial application, the Group made the following adjustments in accordance with
        the New Leases Standard:

              For leases that were classified as finance leases previously, the carrying amount of the right-
              of-use asset and the lease liability at the date of initial application shall be the carrying
              amount of the lease asset and lease liability immediately before that date;
              For a lease previously classified as an operating lease, the Group recognised a lease liability
              at the date of initial application, by measuring that lease liability at the present value of the
              remaining lease payments and discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at
              the date of initial application, and a right-of-use asset at the date of initial application, by
              measuring that right-of-use asset using the following method: -- Measured at carrying
              amounts as if the New Leases Standard were adopted since the commencement date of the
              lease term (the incremental borrowing rate of the lessor on the date of initial application is
              adopted as the discount rate).

        As at 1 January 2019, the Group has recognized lease liabilities of RMB 1,231,425,355.87 and
        right-of-use assets of RMB 8,280,694,060.88. For the leases classified as operating leases before
        the initial application, the Group recognised the lease liabilities at the date of initial application,
        by measuring that lease liability at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted
        by the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. The weighted average
        of these incremental borrowing rates is 5.12%.

        Effects of applying the new lease standard on items in the consolidated balance sheet of the Group
        at 1 January 2019 are as follows:

                                                                                                    Unit: RMB

      Note 1: The Group's enterprise income tax is calculated based on the current tax rate stipulated by
              local tax laws. Among them, the Company are subject to an enterprise income tax rate of
              25%, the subsidiaries set up in Hong Kong are subject to an enterprise income tax rate of
              16.5%, the majority of subsidiaries set up in China are subject to an enterprise income tax
              rate of 25% and certain others are subject to the preferential tax rate for small and micro
              enterprises of 20%, and the other overseas subsidiaries are subject to enterprise income
              tax rates between 28% and 34%.

      Note 2:Foreign investors who receive dividends of profits from Chinese subsidiaries in 2008 and
             thereafter generally shall pay withholding income tax at a rate of 10% in accordance with
             the relevant provisions of the PRC enterprise income tax. For companies incorporated in
             certain regions (including Hong Kong and Singapore), if the companies are actual owners
             holding more than 25% interest in the subsidiaries in China, they will enjoy a preferential
             tax rate of 5%.

              The Company obtains dividends distributed by overseas subsidiaries and should pay
              enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% in accordance with relevant Chinese tax laws. The
              Company obtains taxable income outside of China, and the amount of income tax that has
              been paid abroad can be offset with the current taxable amount. The credit limit is the
              taxable amount calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Enterprise Income Tax
              Law.

      Note3: The VAT amount is the balance of the output tax less the deductible input tax, and the
             output tax is calculated in accordance with the sales income and the corresponding tax rate
             stipulated in the relevant tax laws of China.

      21.   Goodwill - continued

      (2)   Information of assets group or portfolio of assets group to which the goodwill belongs

            The Group takes the ability to independently generate cash inflows, manage the way of
            production and operation activities (mainly by geographic areas) and unified decision on the
            use and disposal of the assets as the criteria to determine assets group or portfolio of assets
            group, and performs impairment test of goodwill for the assets group or portfolio of assets
            group as determined. As at 31 December 2019, the assets group or portfolio of assets group
            determined by the Group include: TCP; Mega Shekou Container Terminals Limited,
            including Shekou Container Terminals Ltd., Shenzhen Lianyunjie Container Terminals Co.,
            Ltd., Anxunjie Container Terminals (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd.; CMPort; Shantou Port; Zhanjiang
            port; Shenzhen Mawan Project, including Shenzhen Mawan Port Waterway Co., Ltd.,
            Shenzhen Mawan Port Services Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Magang Cangma Co., Ltd.

      (3)   Impairment test of goodwill and key parameters

            When testing the goodwill for impairment, the Group compares the carrying amount of
            related assets group and portfolio of assets group (including goodwill) with the recoverable
            amount. If the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, the difference is
            included in profit or loss for the period. The Group determines the recoverable amount of
            the assets group and portfolio of assets group that generate goodwill at fair value less cost of
            disposal or at present value of expected future cash flows. The fair value is determined
            using market approach. The present value of cash flows is estimated based on the forecast of
            cash flows for five-to-ten-year detailed forecast period and 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
            growth rate adopted will not exceed the long-term average growth rate of the country where
            the assets group and portfolio of assets group are located. The key assumptions used by the
            Group in estimating the present value of future cash flows include growth in business
            volume, gross profit margin and discount rate etc. The discount rate and the growth rate for
            subsequent forecasted period adopted in 2019 are around 9.40%-12.3% and 3% respectively.
            The parameters of key assumptions determined by the Group's management are in line with
            the Group's historical experience or external source of information.

      (4)   Effect of impairment test of goodwill

            After the test, the Group's management considers that any reasonable change in above
            assumptions will not result in the circumstance that the carrying amount of the assets group
            and portfolio of assets group is higher than the recoverable amount, therefore it is not
            necessary to make provision for impairment of goodwill.




                                                                                                      - 94 -

      Note 3: At 9 December 2019, ZCMG, a subsidiary of the Company, and China Merchants
              Finance Lease (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. entered into a 72-month sale-and-leaseback agreement
              in respect of the sale-and-leaseback assets, with a consideration of RMB 150,000,000.00.
              The leased assets represent the front 80 meters hydraulic project main body assets of
              section A and section B under the Xiamen Port Houshi port area No. 3 general berth
              project. According to the agreement, after the lessee has settled all the liabilities under the
              contract, it is entitled to purchase the leased assets at the nominal price of RMB 100
              (inclusive of VAT). ZCMG is the saler and lessee of the leased assets. As China
              Merchants Finance Lease (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. has no control over the leased assets, the
              transfer of assets in the sale-and-leaseback transaction is not a sale and the cash receipts
              are accounted for as financial liabilities, i.e. borrowings from related parties. According
              to the agreement, the interest rate for the borrowings is 4.75% and the borrowing period
              is 72 months.

                 At 9 December 2019, ZCMG and China Merchants Finance Lease (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. as
                 the beneficiary entered into a mortgage agreement with the land use rights of two plots of
                 land for harbor and wharf with areas of 126,400 square meters and 172,700 square meters
                 respectively as the collaterals. As of 31 December 2019, the carrying amount of the
                 mortgaged land use rights is RMB 121,585,300.20.

      The Company's subsidiaries provide the registered retirees and in-service staff with
      supplementary post-employment benefit plans.

      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.

  (3) Description of performance obligations

     The Group provides wharf service, bonded logistics service and other services. These services are
     obligations performed over a period of time. For wharf services, as the handling time for
     containers and bulk cargos is short, the management believes that it is not necessary to recognize
     revenue according to the progress towards the completion of contract and it is an appropriate
     method to recognize the fulfillment of performance obligation and revenue upon the completion
     of the service. For bonded logistics service and other services, the customers evenly obtains and
     consumes the economic benefits from the Group's performance of contract, meanwhile the
     charging rules as agreed in the contract terms usually adopt daily/month/yearly basis. During the
     process of rendering services, the Group recognizes revenue using straight-line method. Part of
     the Group's handling contracts are established with discount terms, i.e. the customers whose
     business volume reaches agreed level, are granted with preferential charge rate or discount. At the
     end of the year, as the business quantity finally realized within the contract period is uncertain, the
     contract consideration is subject to variable factors. The management included this part of
     discount in provisions. Details are set out in Note (V) 40. The Group's revenue contract does not
     have significant financing components.

  (4) At the end of the year, the variable consideration of RMB15,265,697.07 (31 December 2018:
      RMB15,480,571.55) arising from sales discount is not included in the transaction price due to the
      restriction requirements relating to variable considerations.

                   RMB 1.867 per share or equivalent foreign currency price (determined based on
                   exchange rate of the capital contribution) so as to increase its registered capital to RMB
                   5,874,209,145.00. CWHK proposes to subscribe for 1,606,855,919 shares ordinary shares,

       Note 2: According to the previous articles of association of Longteng Shipping, the top authority
               of the company is the General Shareholders Meeting, and the resolution of Shareholders
               Meeting requires unanimous consent of all the shareholders. Therefore, the Company's

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019


(VIII) RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The Group's major financial instruments include cash and bank balances, notes receivable,
     account receivables, other receivables, long-term receivables, other equity instrument investments,
     other non-current financial assets, short-term borrowings, notes payable, accounts payable, other
     payables, long-term borrowings, bonds payable, long-term payables etc. 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 HKD, USD and EUR. Except
     for part of the purchases and sales, the Group's other principal activities are denominated and
     settled in RMB. As at 31 December 2019, the balance of the Group's assets and liabilities are both
     denominated in functional currency, except that the assets and liabilities set out below are
     recorded using foreign currency. Currency risk arising from the foreign currency balance of assets
     and liabilities may have impact on the Group's performance.
                                                                                               Unit: RMB

     1.      Risk management objectives and policies - continued

     1.1     Market risk - continued

     1.1.1 Currency risk - continued

     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 it is unlikely that the exchange rate changes in the future
     one year will result in significant loss to the Group.

     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
     and shareholders' equity:
                                                                                               Unit: RMB

     1.    Risk management objectives and policies - continued

     1.1   Market risk - continued

     1.1.2 Interest rate risk - changes in cash flows

     Risk of changes in cash flows of financial instruments arising from interest rate changes is mainly
     related to bank loans with floating interest rate. (See Note (V) 24 and Note (V) 34). The Group
     continuously and closely monitors the impact of interest rate changes on the Group's interest rate
     risk. The Group's policy is to maintain these borrowings at floating rates. Presently, the Group has
     no arrangement such as interest rate swaps etc.

     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 designated as hedging instrument, the fluctuations of market
           interest rate affects its fair value, and all interest rate hedging are expected to be highly effective;
           The changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments and other financial assets and
           liabilities are calculated using cash flow discounting method by applying the market interest rate at
           balance sheet date.

     On the basis of above assumptions, where the other variables held constant, the pre-tax effect of
     possible and reasonable changes in interest rate on the profit or loss for the period and
     shareholders' equity are as follows:
                                                                                               Unit: RMB

     The Group's price risk is mainly arising from held-for-trading equity instrument investments and
     other equity instrument investments. The Group reduces the price risk of equity instrument
     investments by holding portfolio of multiple equity securities.




                                                                                                                    - 146 -

     1.    Risk management objectives and policies - continued

     1.2   Credit risk

     As at 31 December 2019, 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
     financial assets recognized 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
     financial assets 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 they are deposited with banks with high credit
     ratings.

     The Group has adopted a policy to ensure that all sales customers have good credit records.

     The Group's risk exposure spreads over a number of counterparties and customers, therefore the
     Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. At 31 December 2019, the balance of
     accounts receivable from top five entities is RMB 368,100,117.85 (31 December 2018: RMB
     278,398,497.79), accounting for 25.29% (31 December 2018: 24.16%) of the Group's accounts
     receivable. In addition, the Group has no other significant credit risk exposure concentrated on
     single financial asset or portfolio of financial assets with similar characteristics.

     1.3   Liquidity risk

     In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and
     cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group's operations and
     mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilisation of
     bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.

     As of 31 December 2019, the Group had total current liabilities in excess of total current assets of
     RMB6,933,328,647.40. As at 31 December 2019, the Group has available unutilized loan facility
     of RMB46,602,858,550.04 which is more than current liabilities. Therefore, the Group's
     management believes that the Group has no significant liquidity risk.

(IX)   DISCLOSURE OF FAIR VALUE - continued

       5.       Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value

       The financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value mainly include: notes receivable,
       accounts receivable, other receivables, short-term borrowings, notes payable, accounts payable,
       other payables, long-term borrowings, bonds payable and long-term payables etc.

       The Group's management believes that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial
       liabilities at amortized cost in the financial statements approximate their fair values.

       The fair value of bonds payable traded in active market is determined at the quoted price in the
       active market. The fair values of long-term borrowings, long-term payables and bonds payable
       not traded in active market are determined at the present value of contractual future cash flows
       discounted using the interest rate for providing nearly the same cash flows to entity with
       comparable credit rating under the same conditions.
