                                DIRECTORS' REPORT 


The Directors have pleasure in submitting their report and the audited financial
statements of the Group and of the Company for the year ended 31st October,
2001. 


PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES 

The Company is principally engaged in the business of investment holding and
provision of management services. The principal activities of the subsidiary
companies are disclosed in note 3 to the financial statements. There have been
no significant changes in the nature of these activities during the year. 



RESULTS 
                                              GROUP       COMPANY
                                               RM           RM

Profit/(Loss) for the year                  588,661     (4,020,108) 


DIVIDENDS 

No dividend has been paid, declared or proposed since the end of the Company's 
previous financial year. 


RESERVES AND PROVISIONS 

There were no material transfers to or from reserves or provisions during the 
year other than those mentioned in the financial statements.


BAD AND DOUBTFUL DEBTS 

Before the income statements and balance sheets of the Group and of the Company
were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ascertain that action had
been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and the making of
provisions for doubtful debts, and have satisfied themselves that there were no
known bad debts and that adequate provision had been made for doubtful debts.

                                   -1-



At the date of this report, the Directors of the Company are not aware of any
circumstances which would require the writing off of bad debts, or the amount of
the provision for doubtful debts in the financial statements of the Group and of
the Company inadequate to any substantial extent. 


CURRENT ASSETS 

Before the income statements and balance sheets of the Group and of the Company
were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ensure that any current
assets which were unlikely to realise in the ordinary course of business their
values as shown in the accounting records of the Group and of the Company have
been written down to an amount which they might be expected so to realise.
 
At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances
which would render the values attributed to the current assets in the financial
statements of the Group and of the Company misleading. 


VALUATION METHODS 

At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances
which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of valuation of
assets or liabilities of the Group and of the Company misleading or
inappropriate. 


CONTINGENT AND OTHER LIABILITIES 

At the date of this report there does not exist:- 

(i)   any charge on the assets of the Group or of the Company which has arisen 
      since the end of the financial year which secures the liabilities of any 
      other person, or 

(ii)  any contingent liability in respect of the Group or of the Company which 
      has arisen since the end of the financial year. 

No contingent liability or other liability of the Group or of the Company has
become enforceable, or is likely to become enforceable within the period of
twelve months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the
Directors, will or may substantially affect the ability of the Group or of the
Company to meet their obligations as and when they fall due.
 

CHANGE OF CIRCUMSTANCES 

At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances,
not otherwise dealt with in this report or the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company which would render any amount stated in the financial
statements misleading. 

                                   -2-



ITEMS OF AN UNUSUAL NATURE 

In the opinion of the Directors:- 

(i)   the results of the operations of the Group and of the Company for the 
      financial year were not substantially affected by any item, transaction or 
      event of a material and unusual nature. 

(ii)  there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year 
      and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material 
      and unusual nature likely to affect substantially the results of the 
      operations of the Group and of the Company for the financial year in which 
      this report is made.

and

              NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31ST OCTOBER, 2001 

The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965 and applicable
approved accounting standards in Malaysia.
 

1.   ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 

     (a) Basis of Accounting 

         The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been 
         prepared under the historical cost convention other than those 
         mentioned in note 7 to the financial statements. Certain development 
         properties of the subsidiary companies are stated in the Group's 
         financial statements at values reflecting the effective acquisition 
         costs to the Group (Group cost) of these assets. 


     (b) Basis of Consolidation 

         The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements 
         of the Company and its subsidiary companies made up to the balance 
         sheet date. The results of subsidiary companies acquired during the 
         year are included in the consolidated income statement from the date of 
         their acquisition. All intercompany balances and significant 
         transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. 

         All subsidiary companies are consolidated using the acquisition 
         accounting method. The results of subsidiary companies acquired or 
         disposed of during the financial year are included in the consolidated 
         income statements from the date of their acquisition or up to the date 
         of their disposal.

         At the date of acquisition, the fair values of the subsidiary 
         companies' net assets are determined and these values are incorporated 
         in the consolidated financial statements. Any difference between the 
         cost of investment and the fair value of the net assets of the 
         subsidiary companies that remains is shown in the balance sheet as 
         goodwill or reserve on consolidation. 


     (c) Investments 

         Investment in subsidiary companies and associated company are stated at 
         cost and provision is made for any permanent diminution in value 
         determined on an individual basis. 


                                       -18-



         Investment in quoted and unquoted shares held as long term investments 
         are stated at cost and are only written down when the Directors 
         consider that there is a permanent diminution in the value of the 
         investments.

         Short term investments in quoted shares are stated at lower of cost and 
         market value on an aggregate basis.


     (d) Investment Properties
 
         Investment properties comprises properties which are held for 
         investment potential. It is the Group's policy to maintain these 
         properties in a high standard and condition. As such, these properties 
         maintain their residual value of not less than their respective book 
         value such that depreciation would be negligible. In view of this, no
         depreciation is provided for these properties. The related maintenance 
         expenditure is dealt with in the income statement. It is the Group's 
         policy to appraise the investment properties once in every five years 
         by independent professional valuation based on open market values. 
         Any surplus or deficit therefrom will be dealt with in the revaluation 
         surplus account. 

   
    (e) Associated Companies 

        An associated company is defined as a company, not being a subsidiary 
        company, in which the Group has a long term equity interest of between 
        20% to 50% and in whose financial and operating decisions, the Group 
        exercises significant influence. 

        The consolidated income statement includes the Group's share of the 
        associated companies' profits less losses based on the audited or 
        management accounts of the associated companies after adjustments for 
        depreciation of depreciable assets stated at fair values to the Group 
        and amortisation or write down of goodwill or reserve on acquisition of 
        the associated companies. The share of losses of associated companies 
        are limited to the carrying value of the investment determined on an 
        individual basis. 


    (f) Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation 

        Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated 
        depreciation and impairment loss except for freehold land which is not 
        amortised. 

        Leasehold land and mines' development costs are amortised on a straight 
        line basis over the expected working lives of the mines. Since the 
        cessation of the mining operations in 1997, all mines' development costs 
        have been fully amortised to the income statement. 

        Dredge is depreciated on a straight line basis so as to write down its 
        cost to its estimated net residual value by the end of its expected 
        useful life. 

                                       -19-



        Fully depreciated property, plant and equipment are retained in the 
        financial statements at a nominal value of RM1/- each until they are no 
        longer in use and no further charge for depreciation is made in respect 
        of these assets.

        All other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on the straight 
        line method to write off the cost of the assets over their estimated 
        useful lives. 

        The principal annual rates used for this purpose are:-
 
        Buildings                                 2% 
        Plant and equipment                      10% - 33% 
        Motor vehicles                           20% 

        The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at 
        each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of 
        impairment. If such an indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount 
        is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying 
        amount of an item of property, plant and equipment exceeds its 
        recoverable amount. 

        An impairment loss is recognised as an expenses in the income statement. 
        However, an impairment loss on a revalued asset will be treated as a 
        revaluation deficit to the extent that the loss does not exceed the 
        amount held in the revaluation reserve account in respect of the same 
        asset. 

        Any subsequent increase in recoverable amount due to a reversal of 
        impairment loss is restricted to the carrying amount that would have 
        been determined (net of accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss 
        been recognised in prior years. The reversal of impairment loss is 
        recognised as revenue in the income statement. However, the reversal
        of impairment loss on a revalued asset will be treated as a revaluation 
        surplus. 


    (g) Land and Development Expenditure 

        Land and development expenditure consists of land, stated at cost to the 
        Group which is currently under active development and it is expected to 
        be completed within the normal operating cycles, and development 
        expenditure incurred to date including borrowing costs and a proportion 
        of estimated profit attributable to development work performed to date, 
        less progress payments received and receivable. 

        Group cost arising from acquisition of property development subsidiary 
        companies is amortised over the period of development by reference to 
        the percentage of completion of the development properties.

        Where foreseeable losses on development projects are anticipated, full 
        provision for these losses is made in the financial statements. 

        Deferred land and development expenditure comprise land held for future 
        development, are stated at Group cost. 

                                       -20-



   (h) Inventories 

       Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value and 
       are determined on the weighted average basis. Costs include the actual 
       cost of materials and incidental in bringing the inventories into store

respect of chargeable income for the year ended 31st October, 1999 of which

25. EARNINGS PER SHARE 

The basic earnings per share of the Group is calculated by dividing the Group's 
profit for the year of RM588,661/- (2000 : RM4,331,451/-) by the weighted 
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year of 162,029,405
(2000 : 81,681,224) ordinary shares of RM1/- each. 

The fully diluted earnings per ordinary share for the year has been calculated 
based on the net profit for the year of RM588,661/- (2000 : RM5,215,924/- 
adjusted net profit for the year) and on the adjusted weighted average number of
ordinary shares issued and issuable of 346,102,681 (2000 : 272,165,971) shares. 
The adjusted net profit for the year 2000 has been arrived at after adding back 
notional saving (net of tax) on the cost of borrowing and notional interest 
income from fixed deposits (net of tax). The adjusted weighted average number 
of ordinary shares issued and issuable has been arrived at based on the 
assumption that all the warrant and ICULS issued are convened into
ordinary shares at the respective conversion date.
