By order of the Board LIM SECK WAH (MAICSA 0799845) M. CHANDRASEGARAN A/L S. MURUGASU (MAICSA 0781031) Company Secretaries Dated this: 24 May 2012 Kuala Lumpur

Notes A. This Agenda item is meant for discussion only as the provision of Section 169(1) of the Companies Act, 1965 and the Companys Articles of Association do not require a formal approval of the shareholders and hence, is not put forward for voting. For the purpose of determining a member who shall be entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting, the Company shall be requesting the Record of Depositors as at 8 June 2012. Only a depositor whose name appears on the Record of Depositors as at 8 June 2012 shall be entitled to attend the said meeting or appoint proxies to attend and vote on his/her stead. A member entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote in his/her stead. A member may appoint up to two proxies to attend the same meeting provided that he specifies the proportion of his shareholding to be represented by each proxy. A proxy may but need not be a member of the Company and a member may appoint any person to be his proxy and the provisions of Section 149(1)(a) & (b) of the Companies Act, 1965 shall not apply. Where a member is an authorised nominee as defined under the Security Industry (Central Depositories) Act, 1991, it may appoint at least one (1) proxy in respect of each Securities account it holds with ordinary shares of the Company standing to the credit of the said securities account. A member who is an exempt authorized nominee is entitled to appoint multiple proxies for each omnibus account it holds. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointer or his attorney duly authorized in writing or, if the appointer is a corporation, either under the Corporations Common Seal or under the hand of an officer or attorney so authorized. The Form of Proxy must be deposited at the Registered Office of the Company at Level 15-2, Bangunan Faber Imperial Court, Jalan Sultan Ismail, 50250 Kuala Lumpur not less than 48 hours before the time set for holding the meeting or any adjournment thereof. Explanatory Notes To Special Businesses Resolution Pursuant to Section 132D of the Companies Act, 1965 The proposed Ordinary Resolution no. 7 is a renewal of the mandate given to the Company by the shareholders at the previous Annual General Meeting held on 28 June 2011, if duly passed, will give the Directors of the Company the flexibility to issue and allot new shares in the Company up to an amount not exceeding in total 10% of the issued share capital of the Company for such purposes as the Directors consider would be in the interest of the Company. This authority, unless revoked or varied at a general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of next Annual General Meeting of the Company. The Company continues to consider opportunities to broaden its earnings potential. If any of the expansion/ diversification proposals involves the issue of new shares, the Directors, under certain circumstance when the opportunity arises, would have to convene a general meeting to approve the issue of new shares even though the number involved may be less than 10% of the issued capital. In order to avoid any delay and costs involved in convening a general meeting to approve such issue of shares, it is thus considered appropriate that the Directors be empowered to issue shares in the Company, up to any amount not exceeding in total 10% of the issued share capital of the Company for the time being, for such purposes. The renewed authority for allotment of shares will provide flexibility to the Company for the allotment of shares for the purpose of funding future investment, working capital and/ or acquisitions. No shares have been issued and allotted by the Company since obtaining the said authority from its shareholders at the last Annual General Meeting held on 28 June 2011.

Chairmans Statement
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present to you the Annual Report And Audited Financial Statements of Kamdar Group (M) Berhad (Kamdar Group) for the year ended 31 December 2011. FINANCIAL REVIEW The Company has achieved yet another year of continuing improvement in its financial performance. Localisation and consistent market positioning is the key strategy for the continued growth and success of the Company. We tailor our merchandise assortment, brand mix and floor space allocation on store-by-store basis to better serve our targeted range of consumers in every city that we operate. I am delighted to report that for the financial year ended 31 December 2011, the Companys net profit increased by 5.5% to RM 14,295,303 million from net profit of RM13, 547,120 million from the previous financial year. This resulted in improvement of earnings per share from 6.8 sen in FYE2010 to 7.2 sen for FYE2011. BUSINESS REVIEW Amidst gradual subsidy rationalization causing inflation and the rising cost of living concerns, Kamdar continued to produce strong creditable performance in its retailing business. The growth was contributed by overall better performances of our 28 outlets. In Kamdar, we believe that customers spending will continue to remain positive. Kamdar with its established brand name, merchandise differentiation and middle-income customers market focus will maintain if not improve its position within the retail market. We believe that our business will continue to grow in line with the economy. During the course of 2011, we have closed 2 outlets. One non-performing outlet, Putrajaya and the second, Kotaraya outlet has been closed due to renovation of the complex. In spite of these closures we have managed to increase turnover of the group. We are in the midst of further rationalization exercise and may close more non- performing branches in the coming months. Simultaneously we are on the lookout for new growth areas to open more profitable stores. We have acquired a plot of land in Shah Alam where we intend to develop a large store. DIVIDEND The Board of Directors has proposed a first and final single tier dividend of four sen per share equivalent to RM7,919,600. This would result in total dividend payout ratio of 55.4% of the net profit for FYE2011, representing an increase of 100% over last year dividend of two sen only. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT On behalf of the Board, I wish to extend my sincere thanks to all our valued customers, suppliers, financier, business associates, Government authorities and shareholders for their continued support, co-operation and confidence in the Group. I would also like to convey my sincere appreciation and gratitude to my fellow Directors for their invaluable efforts, contributions and guidance throughout the year as well as to record my appreciation to all our employees at all levels for the dedication, commitment and contributions to the Group.

Statement Of Internal Control


1. Introduction The Board of Directors of Kamdar Group (M) Berhad (the Board) is pleased to present its Internal Control Statement for financial year ended 31 December 2011, which has been prepared pursuant to paragraph 15.26(b) of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (Bursa Securities) Main Market Listing Requirements and as guided by the Statement on Internal Control: Guidance for Directors of Public Listed Companies. This statement outlines the nature and state of the internal controls of the Group during the financial year. The Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance also requires for the board of a listed company to maintain a sound system of internal control to safeguard shareholders investment and the Groups assets. Responsibility For Risks And Internal Controls The Board is responsible for the system of internal control within the Group covering the financial, compliance and operational controls of the Group including its subsidiaries. The responsibility for day-to-day operations is delegated to the Executive Directors. The Board also recognizes its responsibility for reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the system of internal control to safeguard shareholders investment and the Groups assets. The system of internal control is based upon what the Board considers to be appropriate to the Groups activities, to the materiality of the financial operational and other risks inherent in those activities and to the relative costs and benefits of implementing specific controls. It is designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve the Groups strategic objectives and, as such, provides reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. In accordance with Principal D II in Part 1 and Best Practice AA I in Part 2 of the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance, the Board has reviewed the effectiveness of the system of internal control and confirms that there is an ongoing process of identifying, evaluating and managing the Groups risks throughout the reported financial year. Material associated and joint venture companies had not been dealt with as part of the Group for purposes of applying the above guidance as it has its own systems of internal controls in place. Nevertheless, the Board convenes regular Board and operations meetings with these companies to monitor its investments. Enterprise Risk Management Framework The Board maintains the Groups risk management policy and framework to continually update and identify the various factors that could have a potentially significant impact on the Groups mid to long term business objectives. The Board is assisted by the Executive Directors in ensuring that there is an on-going and systematic risk management process undertaken by management to identify, assess and evaluate principal risks. The Executive Directors ensure that appropriate risk treatments are in place to mitigate those risks affecting the achievement of the Groups business objectives. The Board has regularly reviewed this process. The Board also, throughout the reported financial year, has identified, evaluated and managed the significant risks faced by the Group through monitoring of the Groups operational efficiency and profitability at its Board Meetings. Internal Audit Function The Group has outsourced its internal audit function to CGRM Infocomm Sdn Bhd (CGRM). CGRM, an independent professional firm, was appointed to support the Audit Committee, and by extension, the Board, by providing an independent assurance on the effectiveness of the Groups system of internal control.

Statement Of Internal Control (Contd)


In particular, CGRM appraises and contributes towards improving the Groups risk management and control systems and reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis. In assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of the system of internal control and financial control procedures of the Group, the Audit Committee reports to the Board on its activities, significant audit results or findings and the necessary recommendations or actions needed to be taken by management to rectify those issues. The internal audit work plan reflects the risk profile of the Groups major business segments identified by the Executive Directors in their day-to-day business conduct. This plan is reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee. The scope of CGRMs function covered the audit and review of governance, risk assessment, compliance, operational and financial control across all business units except those of the joint venture and associate companies. In performing the internal audit reviews, CGRM refers to and is guided by The International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) that includes the Definition of Internal Auditing, the Code of Ethics and the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing (Standards) issued by The Institute of Internal Auditors. Key Process The Board confirms that there was an on-going process for identifying, evaluating and managing significant risks of the Group for the financial year under review. The Board has assigned to the Audit Committee the duty of reviewing and monitoring the effectiveness of the Groups internal control system. The embedded control system is designed to facilitate achievement of the Groups business objectives. It comprises the underlying control environment, control process, communication and monitoring systems. The Groups key internal control processes were assessed based on the principles of Committee of Sponsoring Organisation of the Treadway Commission (COSO) Internal Controls Integrated Framework as follows: Control Environment The Group has established clear organization structures with reporting lines of responsibilities clearly indicated throughout its outlets nationwide. There is adequate upper level managerial support wherein, the Executive Directors are directly and actively involved in business operations. Management also made regular visits to its branches and other operating units to obtain first-hand knowledge and to better understand individual branch environment. Risk Assessment The Board has been consistent in maintaining its overall responsibility to ensure that systems are in place to effectively monitor and manage the Groups business risk and to continually update and identify the various and continuously changing risk factors that could have a potentially significant impact on profitability and long term business objectives. Adequate insurance and physical safeguards on major assets are in place to ensure assets of the Group are sufficiently covered and protected. Control Activities The documented Group-wide Standard Operating Policies and Procedures on key business processes have been communicated to all branches and other operating units, where relevant, for implementation. These policies and procedures are subject to regular review and improvement to meet changing business, operational and statutory requirements and needs. Procurement and warehousing functions are co-ordinated within the Group to leverage on economies of scale that aim for timely distribution and delivery.

Statement Of Internal Control (Contd)


Information and Communication The Board meets on a quarterly basis and and has a formal agenda on matters for discussion and approval. Presentation and deliberations of board papers, comprehensive explanation and feedback from the board members are the prerequisites to arriving at a decision. The Audit Committee meetings also have been constantly convened on a quarterly basis to ensure that the internal and external audit functions are properly conducted and that audit recommendations are carried out effectively by Management. Management promotes good working relationship at all levels by ensuring information and communication channels are open and sinuous with the needs of the organization. Discussions are also frequently done via phone, skype, fax and emails. Regular branch operation meetings are held as a formal platform for Branch Managers to communicate operational directives obtained from headquarters and to discuss matters relating to their respective branchs performances. Where necessary, internal memorandums are issued to all outlets as a form of communicating and enforcement of new directives from Management. Monitoring Management, together with internal audit, constantly monitors the gaps and highlighted concerns through the conduct of follow-up audits and had showed its commitment to improve on current processes and internal controls. At board level, the Audit Committee reviews internal control issues identified by the internal audit concerning the Groups control environment, risks and governance on regular basis. 6. Conclusion A number of internal control weaknesses were identified during the financial year ended 31 December 2011. The control weaknesses identified have been, or are being, addressed to ensure the integrity of internal controls. None of the weaknesses have resulted in any material losses, contingencies or uncertainties that would require mention in the Groups Annual Report. It should be appreciated that the system of internal control only provide reasonable assurance in managing business risks rather than eliminating them and there is no absolute assurance towards material misstatement or loss. Management will continue to take measures and maintain an on-going commitment to strengthen the Groups application of policies, processes and activities related to control environment, internal control, governance and risk management. Pursuant to paragraph 15.23 of Bursa Securities Listing Requirements, the External Auditors have reviewed this Internal Control Statement for the inclusion in the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2011 and reported to the Board that nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe that the statement is inconsistent with their understanding of the process adopted by the Board in reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the system of internal controls. This statement was made in accordance with a resolution of the Board dated 25 April 2012.

Auditors Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entitys preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTD) 2.4 2.4.1 Financial Reporting Standards (contd) Adoption of New or Revised Financial Reporting Standards (FRSs) (contd) The accounting policies adopted by the Group and by the Company are consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the following new and revised FRSs and IC Interpretations (IC Int) (contd): Effective for accounting period beginning on or after 1 January 2011 (contd) Amendments to FRS 139 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. Transition requirements for contingent consideration from a business combination that occurred before the effective date of the revised FRS - Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease - Customer Loyalty Programmes. Fair value of award credits - Transfers of Assets from Customers

IC Int 4 Amendments to IC Int 13 IC Int 18 * *

During the financial year, MASB approved and issued IC Interpretation 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers and requires the interpretation to be applied prospectively to all transfers of assets from customers received on or after 1 January 2011.

Amendment to FRS 2, 131, IC Int 4, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19 and all the Amendment to IC Int are not relevant to the Groups operations and FRS 3, Amendment to FRS 2, 3, 5, 131, 134, 138, IC Int 4, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19 and all the Amendment to IC Int are not relevant to the Companys operations. Initial application the adoption of the above new/revised FRS, amendments to FRS and IC Int did not have any material impact on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company in the period for initial application except for those discussed below:FRS 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements The revised standard requires the effects of all transactions with non-controlling interests to be recorded in equity if there is no change in control and these transactions will no longer result in goodwill or gains and losses. The standard also specifies the accounting treatment when control is lost. Any remaining interest in the entity is remeasured to fair value, and a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Losses are required to be allocated to non-controlling interests, even if it results in the non-controlling interest to be in a deficit position.

Company No: 577740 A 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTD) 2.4 2.4.1 Financial Reporting Standards (contd) Adoption of New or Revised Financial Reporting Standards (FRSs) (contd) IC Interpretation 17 Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners This interpretation provides guidance on accounting for arrangements whereby an entity distributes non-cash assets to shareholders either as a distribution of reserves or as dividends. The Company should measure the dividend payable at the fair value of the assets to be distributed when the dividend is appropriately authorised and is no longer at the discretion of the Company. On settlement of the dividend, the difference between the dividend paid and the carrying amount of the assets distributed is recognised in profit or loss. If the dividend remains unpaid at the end of the financial year end, the carrying amounts of dividend payable is reviewed with any changes recognised in equity. 2.4.2 Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective New Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (MASB) Approved Accounting Standards To converge with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) in 2012, the MASB had on 19 November 2011, issued a new MASB approved accounting framework, the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (MFRSs), which are mandatory for annual financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012, with the exception of entities that are within the scope of MFRS 141 Agriculture and IC Interpretation 15 Agreements for Construction of Real Estate, including its parent, significant investor and venture (Transitioning Entities). Transitioning Entities will be allowed to defer adoption of the new MFRSs for an additional one year. Consequently, adoption of the MFRSs by Transitioning Entities will be mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. However, the Group and the Company do not qualify as Transitioning Entities and are therefore required to adopt the MFRSs for the financial period beginning on or after 1 January 2012. The Group and the Company have not early adopted the MFRS Framework. In presenting its first MFRS financial statements, the Group and the Company will be required to restate the comparative financial statements to amounts reflecting the application of MFRS Framework. The majority of the adjustments required on transition will be made, retrospectively, against opening retained earnings. The Group and the Company have not completed its quantification of the financial effects of the differences between Financial Reporting Standards (FRS) and accounting standards under the MFRS Framework and are in the process of assessing the financial effects of the differences. Accordingly, the consolidated financial performance and financial position as disclosed in these financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2011 could be different if prepared under the MFRS Framework. 22

They affect the application of the Groups and of the Company's accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and disclosures made. Estimates and underlying assumptions are assessed on an on-going basis and are based on experience and relevant factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management. Information about significant judgements, estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses are discussed below. 2.5.1 Estimation uncertainty The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:Useful lives of depreciable assets Management estimates the useful lives of the property, plant and equipment to be within 2 to 70 years and reviews the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date. At 31 December 2011, management assesses that the useful lives represent the expected utility of the assets to the Group. The carrying amounts are analysed in Note 4 to the Financial Statements. Actual results, however, may vary due to change in the expected level of usage and technological developments, which may result in an adjustment to the Groups assets. Management expects that the expected useful lives of the property, plant and equipment would not have material difference from the management estimates hence it would not result in material variance in the Groups profit for the financial year.

Company No: 577740 A 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTD) 2.5 2.5.1 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (contd) Estimation uncertainty (contd) Inventories (contd) The management review inventories to identify damaged, obsolete and slow-moving inventories which require judgement and changes in such estimate could result in revision to valuation of inventories. Impairment of loans and receivables The Group and the Company assess at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. To determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment, the Group and the Company consider factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments. Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. Deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unutilised tax losses, unabsorbed capital allowances and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which all the deductible temporary differences, unutilised tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. Assumptions about generation of future taxable profits depend on managements estimates of future cash flows. These depend on estimates of future production and sales volume, operating costs, capital expenditure, dividends and other capital management transactions. Judgement is also required about application of income tax legislation. These judgements and assumptions are subject to risks and uncertainty; hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets recognised in the statements of financial position and the amount of unrecognised tax losses and unrecognised temporary differences

Company No: 577740 A 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTD) 2.5 2.5.1 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (contd) Estimation uncertainty (contd) Fair value of financial instruments Management uses valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of financial instruments where active market quotes are not available. Details of the assumptions used are given in the notes regarding financial assets and liabilities. In applying the valuation techniques, management makes maximum use of market inputs, and uses estimates and assumptions that are, as far as possible, consistent with observable data that market participants would use in pricing the instrument. Where applicable data is not observable, management uses its best estimate about the assumptions that market participants would make. These estimates may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm's length transaction at the reporting date. 2.5.2 Significant management judgement The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the Group that have the most significant effect on the financial statements. Classification between investment properties and owner-occupied properties The Group determine whether a property qualifies as an investment property, and has developed criteria in making that judgement. Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Therefore, the Group considers whether a property generates cash flows largely independently of the other assets held by the Group. Some properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation and another portion that is held for use in the production or supply of goods or service or for administrative purpose. The Group accounts for the portions separately if the portions if the could be sold separately (or leased out separately under a finance lease). If the portions could not be sold separately, the property is an investment property only if an insignificant portion is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Judgement is made on an individuals property basis to determine whether ancillary services are so significant that a property does not qualify as an investment property.

Company No: 577740 A 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTD) 2.5 2.5.2 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (contd) Significant management judgement (contd) Deferred tax assets The assessment of the probability of future taxable income in which deferred tax assets can be utilised is based on the Group's latest approved budget forecast, which is adjusted for significant non-taxable income and expenses and specific limits to the use of any unused tax loss or credit. The tax rules in the numerous jurisdictions in which the Group operates are also carefully taken into consideration. If a positive forecast of taxable income indicates the probable use of a deferred tax asset, especially when it can be utilised without a time limit, that deferred tax asset is usually recognised in full. The recognition of deferred tax assets that are subject to certain legal or economic limits or uncertainties is assessed individually by management based on the specific facts and circumstances. 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below:3.1 Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprises the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary companies as at the reporting date. The financial statements of the subsidiary companies are prepared for the same reporting date as the Company. Acquisition of subsidiary companies are accounted for using the purchase method except for Kamdar (South) Sdn. Bhd., Kamdar Sdn. Bhd., Pusat Membeli-Belah Kamdar Sdn. Bhd., Pusat Membeli-Belah Kamdar (Penang) Sdn. Bhd. and Kesar Sdn. Bhd. which are consolidated using merger method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the results of subsidiary companies acquired are included in the consolidated profit or loss from the date on which the control is transferred to the Group and are no longer consolidated from the date that control ceases. The purchase method of accounting involves allocating the cost of the acquisition to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued, plus any cost directly attributable to the acquisition (for all acquisition took place before 1 January 2011). All the subsidiary companies within the Group are acquired before 1 January 2011. Any excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Groups interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities represent goodwill. Any excess of the Groups interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised immediately in profit or loss. 27

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below:3.1 Basis of consolidation (contd) Under the merger method of accounting, the results of the subsidiary companies are accounted on a full year basis irrespective of the date of merger. The difference between the nominal value of shares issued as consideration for the merger and the nominal value of the shares received will be adjusted against reserves. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, intragroup balances, transactions and unrealised gain or losses are eliminated in full. Uniform accounting policies are adopted in the consolidated financial statements for the like transaction and events in similar circumstances. 3.2 Subsidiary companies Subsidiary companies are entities over which the Group or the Company has the ability to control the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has such power over another entity. In the Companys separate financial statements, investments in subsidiary companies are stated at cost less impairment losses. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the subsidiary company is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of such investment, the difference between net disposal proceeds and their carrying amounts is charged or credited to profit or loss.

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.3 Associate company An associate company is a company in which the Group or the Company has a long term equity interest of between 20 to 50 percent and is in the position to exercise significant influence over its financial and operating policies through management participation but not to exert control over those policies. Investment in associate companies are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using equity accounting which involves recognising in profit or loss the Groups share of the results of associate company based on audited or management financial statements of the associate company. The Groups investments in associate company are carried in the statements of financial position at an amount that reflects its share of the net assets of the associate company. Equity accounting is discontinued when the carrying amount of the investment in an associate company reaches zero, unless the Group has incurred obligations or guaranteed obligations in respect of the associate company. Investment in associate company is stated at cost in the Groups statement of financial position. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the associate company is assessed and written down immediately to their recoverable amount. 3.4 Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment loss is in accordance with Note 3.8 to the Financial Statements. Freehold land is not depreciated. All other property, plant and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives to write off the cost of each property, plant and equipment. The principal annual rates of depreciation used are as follows:Long term/short term leasehold buildings Buildings Plant and machinery Equipment, furniture, fittings and renovation Motor vehicles over remaining lease period 2% 10% 5% 50% 10% 20%

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.4 Property, plant and equipment (contd) Restoration cost relating to an item of property, plant and equipment is capitalised only if such expenditure is expected to increase the future benefits from the existing property, plant and equipment beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. Property, plant and equipment are written down to recoverable amount if, in the opinion of the Directors, it is less than their carrying value. Recoverable amount is the net selling price of the property, plant and equipment i.e. the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arms length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the costs of disposal. The residual values, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each reporting date to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment. If expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any and the net carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. 3.5 Investment properties Investment properties consist of land and buildings held for capital appreciation or rental purpose and not occupied or only an insignificant portion is occupied for use or in the operations of the Group. Investment properties are treated as long-term investment and are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount includes the cost of replacing part of an existing investment property at the time that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are met and excludes the costs of day-to-day servicing of an investment property. Investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is charged to the profit or loss on a reducing balance basis over the estimated useful life as below:Freehold buildings Leasehold buildings Freehold land with an infinite life is not amortised. 30 2% Over 99 years

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.5 Investment properties (contd) Investment properties are derecognised when either they are disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss on the retirement or disposal of an investment property is recognised in the profit or loss in the financial year of retirement or disposal. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment loss is in accordance with Note 3.8. 3.6 Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group and the Company become a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured initially at fair value plus transactions costs, except for financial assets and financial liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured initially at fair value. Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured subsequently as described below. Financial assets For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:a) b) c) d) loans and receivables; financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; held to maturity investments; and available-for-sale financial assets.

The category determines subsequent measurement and whether any resulting income and expense is recognised in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income. All financial assets except for those at fair value through profit or loss are subject to review for impairment at least once at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied for each category of financial assets, which are described below. A financial asset is derecognised where the contractual right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired or when the financial assets and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred.

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.6 Financial instruments (contd) Financial assets (contd) Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned. All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised or derecognised on the trade date, i.e. the date that the Group and the Company commit to purchase or sell the asset. At the reporting date, the Group and the Company have not designated any financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity investments and availablefor-sale financial assets. The Group and the Company carry only loans and receivables on their statements of financial position. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial recognitions, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial in subsequent measurement. Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process. The Groups and the Company's cash and cash equivalents, amount due from an associate company, amount due from subsidiary company, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments. Loans and receivables are classified as current assets, except for those having maturity dates later than 12 months after the reporting date which are classified as non-current. Financial liabilities After the initial recognition, financial liability is classified as financial liability at fair value through profit or loss or other financial liabilities measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired, or through amortisation process. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.6 Financial instruments (contd) Financial liabilities At the reporting date, the Group and the Company have not designated any financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. The Group and the Company carry only other financial liabilities on their statements of financial position. Other financial liabilities The Groups and the Company's financial liabilities include borrowings, amount due to subsidiary companies, trade and other payables. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. 3.7 Impairment of financial assets The Group and the Company assess at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. Trade and other receivables and other financial assets carried at amortised cost To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets had been incurred, the Group and the Company consider factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments. For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis based on similar risk characteristics. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Groups and the Companys past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period and observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables. If any such evidence exists, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flow discounted at the financial assets original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable becomes uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. 33

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.7 Impairment of financial assets (contd) Trade and other receivables and other financial assets carried at amortised cost (contd) If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversal is recognised in profit or loss. 3.8 Impairment of non-financial assets At each reporting date, the Group and the Company review carrying amounts of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. Non-financial assets is tested for impairment at least once annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised whenever the recoverable amount of the asset or a cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount. Recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. In assessing value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognised in profit or loss in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset. An impairment loss is recognised as an expense in profit or loss immediately, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease to the extent of previously recognised revaluation surplus for the same asset. An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses for an asset may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.8 Impairment of non-financial assets (contd) All reversals of impairment losses are recognised as income immediately in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal in excess of impairment loss previously recognised through profit or loss is treated as revaluation increase. After such a reversal, depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the revised carrying amount of the asset, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. 3.9 Non-current assets held for sale Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the carrying amounts of the assets are measured in accordance with the applicable FRSs. Upon classification as held for sale, non-current assets are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell and is not depreciated. Any differences are recognised in profit or loss. 3.10 Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary company at the date of acquisition. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiary companies is presented separately in the statements of financial position. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually and, whenever there is an indication that the unit may be impaired, by comparing the carrying amount of the unit, including goodwill, with the recoverable amount of the unit. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. 35

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.10 Goodwill (contd) An impairment loss recognised for goodwill should not be reversed in subsequent period. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) and part of the operations within that unit is disposed off, the goodwill associated with the operations disposed off is included in the carrying amount of the operations when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operations. Goodwill disposed off in these circumstances are measured based on the relative values of the operations disposed off and portion of the cash-generating unit retained. 3.11 Inventories Inventories, which consist of textile and textile based products, are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value after adequate specific allowance has been made by Directors for deteriorated, obsolete and slow-moving inventories. The cost of inventories comprises the original cost of purchase price and incidental costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is generally determined on a first-in-first-out basis. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make sale. 3.12 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, bank balances, short term demand deposits, bank overdrafts, fixed deposits with licensed banks and highly liquid investments which are readily convertible to known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are shown in current liabilities in the statements of financial position. For the purpose of the financial position, cash and cash equivalents restricted to be used to settle a liability of 12 months or more after the reporting date is classified as non-current assets.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.13 Equity, reserves and dividend payments An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Ordinary shares are equity instruments. Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued. Share premium includes any premiums received on issue of share capital. Any transaction cases associated with the issuing of shares are deducted from share premium, net of any related income tax benefits. Foreign currency translation difference arising on the translation of the Groups foreign entities are included in the exchange translation reserve. Retained earnings include all current and prior period retained earnings. Final dividends proposed by the Directors are not accounted for in shareholders equity as an appropriation of retained earnings, until they have been approved by the shareholders in a general meeting. When these dividends have been approved by the shareholders and declared, they are recognised as a liability. Interim dividends are simultaneously proposed and declared, because the articles of association of the Company grant the Directors the authority to declare interim dividends. Consequently, interim dividends are recognised directly as a liability when they are proposed and declared. The distribution of non-cash assets to owners is recognised as dividend payable when the dividend was approved by shareholders. The dividend payable is measured at the fair value of the shares to be distributed. At the end of the financial year and on the settlement date, the Group reviews the carrying amount of the dividend payable recognised in equity. When the Group settles the dividend payable, the difference between the carrying amount of the dividend distributed and the carrying amount of the dividend payables is recognised as a separate line item in profit or loss. All transactions with owners of the parent are recorded separately within equity. 3.14 Provisions Provisions are recognised when there is a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.14 Provisions (contd) Any reimbursement that the Group and the Company can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect to the obligation is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provision. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. Where the effect of the time of money is material, provision are discounted using a current pre tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. 3.15 Assets acquired under lease agreements Finance leases Lease of property, plant and equipment acquired under finance lease arrangements which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Group are capitalised. The depreciation policy on these assets is similar to that of the Groups property, plant and equipment depreciation policy. Outstanding obligation due under finance lease arrangements after deducting finance expenses are included as liabilities in the financial statements. Finance charges on finance lease arrangements are allocated to profit or loss over the period of the respective agreements. Prepaid land lease payments Leasehold land that normally has an indefinite economic life and where the lease does not transfer substantially all the risk and rewards incidental to ownership is treated as an operating lease. The payment made on entering into or acquiring the leasehold land is accounted as prepaid lease payments that are amortised over the lease term in accordance with the pattern of benefits provided except for leasehold land that would otherwise meet the definition of an investment property. 3.16 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is necessary to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress and the expenditures and borrowing costs are incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalised until the assets are substantially completed for their intended use or sale. 38

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.16 Borrowing costs (contd) Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that the Group and the Company incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. 3.17 Revenue recognition Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the enterprise and the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. (i) Sale of goods Revenue relating to sale of goods is recognised net of sales returns and discounts upon the transfer of risks and rewards. (ii) Rental income Revenue from property investment is recognised based on rental received and receivable from letting of properties. (iii) Interest income Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis that reflects the effective yield on the asset. (iv) Dividend income Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment has been established and no significant uncertainty existed with regard to its receipt. 3.18 Foreign currency conversion and translation The consolidated financial statements are presented in Malaysia Ringgit, which is also the functional currency of the parent company. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective Group entity, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the remeasurement of monetary items at year-end exchange rates, whether realised or unrealised, are recognised in profit or loss except for exchange differences arising from monetary items that form part of the Groups net investment in foreign operations, which are recognised initially in other comprehensive income and accumulated under foreign currency translation reserve in equity. 39

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.18 Foreign currency conversion and translation (contd) Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction (not retranslated). Non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items carried at fair value are included in profits or loss for the period except for the differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognised directly in equity. Exchange differences arising from such non-monetary items are also recognised directly in equity. In the Groups financial statements, all assets, liabilities and transactions of Group entities with a functional currency other than the RM (the Groups presentation currency) are translated into RM upon consolidation. The functional currency of the entities in the Group have remained unchanged during the reporting period. On consolidation, assets and liabilities have been translated into RM at the closing rate at the reporting date. Income and expenses have been translated into the Groups presentation currency at the average rate over the reporting period. Exchange differences are charged or credited to other comprehensive income and recognised in the currency translation reserve in equity. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity have been treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated into RM at the closing rate. On disposal of a foreign operation which resulted a loss of control, the cumulative translation differences recognised in equity (the exchange translation reserve) are reclassified to profit or loss and recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal. On partial disposal of a foreign operation, the proportionate share of the cumulative translation differences recognised in equity shall be re-attributed to the noncontrolling interests in that foreign operation. 3.19 Income tax Current tax Current tax expense is the expected amount of income taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the financial year and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised in financial position as liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable). Current tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.19 Income tax (contd) Deferred tax Deferred tax liabilities and assets are provided for under the liability method in respect of all temporary differences at the reporting date between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the financial position and its tax base including unused tax losses and capital allowances. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences, except:where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries and associates, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised except:where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each reporting date. If it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset will be reduced accordingly. When it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available, such reductions will be reversed to the extent of the taxable profit. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax assets to be utilised.

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.19 Income tax (contd) Deferred tax Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity and deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill on acquisition. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. 3.20 Employee benefits (i) Short term employee benefits Wages, salaries, bonuses and social security contributions are recognised as an expense in the period in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and of the Company. Short term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised when services are rendered by employees that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences, and short term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur. (ii) Defined contribution plan Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group and the Company pay fixed contributions into separate entities of funds and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contribution if any of the funds do not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to employee services in the current and preceding financial years. Such contributions are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss as incurred. As required by law, companies in Malaysia make such contributions to the Employees Provident Fund (EPF). Foreign subsidiary company is also make contribution to its countrys statutory pension scheme.

Company No: 577740 A 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD) The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below (contd):3.21 Segment reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors, who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified to make strategic decisions. Additional disclosures on each of these segments are shown in Note 33. 3.22 Contingencies A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group and of the Company. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognised because it is not probable that outflow or economic resources will be required or the amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably. A contingent liability is not recognised but is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. When a chance in the probability of an outflow occurs such that outflow is probable and can be measured reliably, they will then be recognised as a provision.

Company No: 577740 A 9. GOODWILL (CONTD) The recoverable amount for the goodwill was based on its value in use. Value in use was determined by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing operation of business acquired and was based on the following key assumptions:(i) (ii) (iii) cash flows were projected based on actual operating results and a five-year business plan. revenue was projected to increase by 3% per annum from 2011 onwards. expenses were projected at annual increase of approximately 2% per annum.

A pre-tax discount rate of 6% was applied in determining the recoverable amount of the unit. The discount rate was estimated based on the Groups existing rate of borrowing.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES Financial risks The Group is exposed to financial risks arising from their operations and the use of financial instruments. Financial risk management policy is established to ensure that adequate resources are available for the development of the Groups business whilst managing its credit risk, liquidity risk, foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. The Group operates within clearly defined policies and procedures that are approved by the Board of Directors to ensure the effectiveness of the risk management process. The Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purpose nor does it write options. The Group and the Company do not apply hedge accounting. The main areas of financial risks faced by the Group and the policy in respect of the major areas of treasury activity are set out as follows:(a) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. It is the Groups policy to enter into financial instrument with a diversity of creditworthy counterparties. The Group does not expect to incur material credit losses of its financial assets or other financial instruments. Concentration of credit risk exists when changes in economic, industry and geographical factors similarly affect the group of counterparties whose aggregate credit exposure is significant in relation to the Groups total credit exposure. The Groups transactions are entered into with diverse creditworthy counterparties, thereby mitigate any significant concentration of credit risk. 62

Company No: 577740 A 36. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTD) Financial risks (contd) (a) Credit risk (contd) It is the Groups policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedure. The Group does not offer credit terms without the approval of the head of credit control. Following are the areas where the Group are exposed to credit risk:Receivables The net carrying amount of receivables is considered a reasonable approximate of fair value. As at reporting date, the maximum exposure to credit risk arising from receivables is limited to the carrying amounts in the statements of financial position. With a credit policy in place to ensure the credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis, management has taken reasonable steps to ensure that receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are stated at their realisable values. A significant portion of these receivables are regular customers that have been transacting with the Group. The Group uses aging analysis to monitor the credit quality of the receivables. Any receivables having significant balances past due more than credit terms granted are deemed to have higher credit risk, and are monitored individually. Trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are creditworthy debtors with good payment records with the Group. None of the Groups trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired have been renegotiated during the financial year. As at 31 December 2011, trade receivables of RM5,263,136 (RM4,918,485) were past but not impaired. These relate to a number of independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default. The ageing analysis of trade receivables is as follows:Allowance for impairment loss Individually Collectively impaired Total impaired RM RM RM (171,957) (171,957) (171,957) (171,957)

Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired and neither past due or impaired are disclosed above. Trade receivables that are individually determined to be impaired at the reporting date relate to debtors that are in significant financial difficulties and have defaulted on payments. These receivables are not secured by any collateral or credit enhancements. In respect of trade and other receivables, the Group is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty. Financial guarantee/Corporate guarantee The maximum exposure to credit risk amounts to RM66,445,057 (RM69,284,566) representing the outstanding banking facilities of the subsidiary companies as at end of the reporting period. The Company provides unsecured financial guarantees to banks in respect of banking facilities granted to certain subsidiary companies. The Company monitors on an ongoing basis the results of the subsidiary companies and repayments made by the subsidiary companies. As at end of the reporting period, there was no indication that any subsidiary companies would default on repayment. Cash and cash equivalents The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents and short term placements is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings. 64

Company No: 577740 A 36. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTD) Financial risks (contd) (b) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due as a result of shortage of funds. In managing its exposures to liquidity risk, the Group maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents and bank facilities deemed adequate by the management to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due. The Group aims at maintaining a balance of sufficient cash and deposits and flexibility in funding by keeping diverse sources of committed and uncommitted credit facilities from various banks. The liquidity risks arise principally from its payables and borrowings. The summary of the maturity profile based on contractual undiscounted repayment obligations are as below:Current On demand/ less than 1 year RM Maturity Non-current 1 to 2 years RM 2 to 5 years RM More than 5 years RM

Company No: 577740 A 36. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTD) Financial risks (contd) (d) Interest rate risk (contd) Interest rate sensitivity The Groups and the Companys interest rate management objective is to manage the interest expenses consistent with maintaining an acceptable level of exposure to interest rate fluctuation. In order to achieve this objective, the Group and the Company targets a mix of fixed and floating debt based on assessment of its existing exposure and desired interest rate profile. The interest rate profile of the Groups and of the Companys significant interestbearing financial instruments, based on carrying amounts as at end of the reporting date were as follows:2011 RM Group 2010 RM 2011 RM Company 2010 RM

The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit to a reasonably possible change in interest rates of +/- 50 basis points (bp). These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market conditions. The calculations are based on a change in the average market interest rate for each period, and the financial instruments held at each reporting date that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. All other variables are held constant.

The Group and the Company do not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and do not designate derivatives as hedging instruments under a fair value hedge accounting model. Therefore, a change in interest rates at the end of the reporting period would not affect profit or loss. Fair value of financial instruments The carrying amounts of short term receivables and payable, cash and cash equivalents and short term borrowings approximate their fair value due to the relatively short term nature of these financial instruments and insignificant impact of discounting. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Groups investment in unquoted shares due to the lack of comparable quoted prices in active market. In addition, it is impracticable to use valuation technique to estimate the fair value reliably as a result of significant variability in the inputs of the valuation technique. The Group does not intend to dispose of these investments in the near future. The fair values of financial assets that are quoted in an active market are determined by reference to their quoted closing bid price at the reporting date. 37. COMPARATIVE INFORMATION Certain comparative figures in the financial statements have been reclassified on the face of the statements of the financial position and statements of cash flows to conform with the current year presentation due to changes in related companies:As reclassified RM 9,884,742 As previously Reported RM 4,714,742 5,170,000 76,011

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The Groups objectives when managing capital is to maintain a strong capital base and safeguard the Groups ability to continue as a going concern, so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business.

The Group monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which are the total interest bearing borrowings over owners equity. The Groups policy is to keep the gearing ratio below 1. The borrowings include hire purchase creditors, term loan and other loan while owners equity refers to the equity attributable to the owners of the parent company.
