REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The year 2005 had been a very difficult year for the Group and all its subsidiary companies. Due to higher energycosts almost all major raw material prices had escalated during 2005. Tinplate, plastic resin and aluminium prices wererecorded at the highest level together with other raw materials like copper wire (used for welding of cans), lacquer, can coating and ink also followed. Although there were some price adjustments, maximum recovery of price increasecould not be achieved.
All sectors of the packaging business for the Group showed improved results with the exception of the plastic divisionwhich still suffered a loss of RM4.24 million due to the high oil prices in the world market.
The contract packing division also encountered pre-operation losses of RM2.962 million. Kian Joo Visypak Sdn. Bhd., our 50% owned associated company, however showed a better performance as compared to 2004. This PET bottle operation will move to a brand new factory in Shah Alam in March 2006 and is anticipated to achievebetter result with new range of products introduced.
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT
To position Kian Joo internationally as a world class manufacturer, the Group will be expanding regionally with newmanufacturing facilities in Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia with the newly acquired ‘‘MICROFLEX” can makingtechnology. In line with this, a newly joint-venture company, KJO Systems Sdn. Bhd. was incorporated with a 50%/50% shareholdings between Kian Joo and Omnitech International Inc. of Colorado USA. This company willalso undertake to produce machines, parts and conveyors for future ‘‘ MICROFLEX ” lines. The first ‘‘MICROFLEX”line producing 2 piece DWI steel cans for sweetened condensed milk (SCM) will be in operation during the thirdquarter of 2006.

Responsibilities for Internal Control
The Board acknowledges its responsibility for maintaining an effective and sound system of internal controlthroughout the Group and for reviewing its adequacy and integrity in order to safeguard the Group’s assets andshareholders’ investments. The review of the effectiveness of the system of internal control is a continuous processdesigned to monitor and mitigate the effects rather than to eliminate risks of failure to achieve business objectives. In pursuing these objectives, internal controls can only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance against materialmisstatement, fraud or losses. It should also be recognised that the cost of control procedures should not outweigh orexceed the benefits to be expected to arise from such control procedures.
Key Elements of Internal Control
Key elements of internal control that the Board has established in reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the systemof internal control are as follows:
Organisation Structure and Responsibility Levels
The Group has placed competent and responsible personnel to oversee the Group’s operating functions. The Grouphas defined clear lines of accountability and delegation of authority that sets out decisions that need to be takenincluding matters that require Board approval. Key personnel including executive directors are actively involved in thedaily operations.
Audit Committee and Internal Audit
The Audit Committee was established with a view to assist and to provide the Board added focus in discharging the Board’s duties. The key processes undertaken by the Audit Committee in carrying out its review include operationsreviews, review external and internal audit reports and regular review of internal control.
The Audit Committee also ensures there are continuous efforts by management to address and resolve areas withcontrol weaknesses. Reports on findings of the internal audit visits are presented to the Audit Committee. These, together with the External Auditors’ reports provide reasonable assurance that control procedures are in place,and being followed.
Regular internal audits are carried out to review the adequacy and integrity of the internal control system based on audit plan reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee. The internal audit department advises on areas for improvement and conducts follow-up reviews to determine the extent to which its recommendation has been implemented.
Risk Management
The Group’s operations involve management of a wide range of risks. The Board is responsible for identifying businessrisks and in ensuring the implementation of appropriate systems to manage these risks. In doing so, the Board, through the Audit Committee and the internal audit function, reviews the adequacy and integrity of the Group’sinternal control system including compliance with applicable laws, regulations, rules, directives and guidelines.

(g) Financial Instruments (Cont’d)
(iv) Equity Instruments
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised in equity in theperiod in which they are declared.
(h) Provisions for Liabilities
Provisions for liabilities are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event andit is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle theobligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheetdate and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Where the effect of the time value of money is material,the amount of a provision is the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle theobligation.
Provision for restructuring costs is recognised in the period in which the Group becomes legally orconstructively committed to payment.
(i) Employee Benefits
(i) Short Term Benefits
Wages, salaries, bonuses and social security contributions are recognised as an expense in the year inwhich the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group. Short term accumulatingcompensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised when services are rendered by employeesthat increase their entitlement to future compensated absences. Short term non-accumulatingcompensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur.
(ii) Defined Contribution Plans
As required by law, companies in Malaysia make contributions to the Employees Provident Fund(“EPF”). Some of the Group’s foreign subsidiaries make contributions to their respective countriespension schemes. Such contributions are recognised as an expense in the income statement as incurred.
(iii) Defined Benefit Plans
The Group operates an unfunded, defined benefit Retirement Benefit Scheme (“the Scheme”) for itseligible employees. The Group’s obligations under the Scheme, calculated using the Projected Unit CreditMethod, is determined based on triennial actuarial computations by independent actuaries, throughwhich the amount of benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current andprior years is estimated. That benefit is discounted in order to determine its present value. Actuarial gainsand losses are recognised as income or expense over the expected average remaining working lives of theparticipating employees when the cumulative unrecognised actuarial gains or losses for the Scheme exceed10% of the present value of the defined benefit obligations. Past service costs are recognised immediatelyto the extent that the benefits are already vested, and otherwise are amortised on a straight-line basis overthe average period until the amended benefits become vested.
The amount recognised in the balance sheet represents the present value of the defined benefit obligationsadjusted for unrecognised actuarial gains and losses and unrecognised past service cost.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(i) Employee Benefits (Cont’d)
(iv) Equity Compensation Benefits
The Company’s Employee Share Options Scheme allows the employees of the Company and its non-listed Malaysian incorporated subsidiary companies which are not dormant (including full-timeExecutive Directors) in the employment of the Group with at least two years of service as at the offer date,to acquire ordinary shares of the Company. No compensation cost or obligation is recognised. When theoptions are exercised, equity is increased by the amount of the proceeds received.
(v) Termination Benefits
The Group pays termination benefits in cases of termination of employment within the framework of arestructuring. Termination benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense when the Group has adetailed formal plan for the termination and is without realistic possibility of withdrawal.
(j) Leases
A lease is recognised as a finance lease if it transfers substantially to the Group all the risks and rewardsincident to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
(i) Finance Leases
Assets acquired by way of hire purchase or finance leases are stated at an amount equal to the lower oftheir fair values and the present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the leases, lessaccumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The corresponding liability is included in the balancesheet as borrowings. In calculating the present value of the minimum lease payments, the discount factorused is the interest rate implicit in the lease, when it is practicable to determine; otherwise, the Group’sincremental borrowing rate is used.
Lease payments are apportioned between the finance costs and the reduction of the outstanding liability.Finance costs, which represent the difference between the total leasing commitments and the fair valueof the assets acquired, are recognised as an expense in the income statement over the term of the relevantlease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the remaining balance of the obligations foreach accounting period.
The depreciation policy for leased assets is in accordance with that for depreciable property, plant andequipment as described in Note 2(c).
(ii) Operating Leases
Operating lease receipts or payments are recognised as income or expense in the income statement on astraight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
(k) Income Tax
Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is the expectedamount of income taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the year and is measured using the tax ratesthat have been enacted at the balance sheet date.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(k) Income Tax (Cont’d)
Deferred tax is provided for, using the liability method, on temporary differences at the balance sheet datebetween the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Inprinciple, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets arerecognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent thatit is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unusedtax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax is not recognised if the temporary differencearises from goodwill or reserve on consolidation or from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in atransaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accountingprofit nor taxable profit.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised orthe liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheetdate. Deferred tax is recognised in the income statement, except when it arises from a transaction which isrecognised directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or when itarises from a business combination that is an acquisition, in which case the deferred tax is included in theresulting goodwill or reserve on consolidation.
(l) Foreign Currencies
(i) Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially converted into Ringgit Malaysia at rates of exchange rulingat the date of transaction. At each balance sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are translated intoRinggit Malaysia at exchange rates ruling at that date. Non-monetary items initially denominated inforeign currencies, which are carried at historical cost are translated using the historical rate as of the dateof acquisition and non-monetary items which are carried at fair value are translated using the exchangerate that existed when the values were determined.
All exchange differences are recognised in the income statement.
(ii) Foreign Entities
Financial statements of foreign consolidated subsidiaries are translated at year-end exchange rates withrespect to the assets and liabilities, and at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions with respect tothe income statement. All resulting translation differences are included in the foreign exchange reserve inshareholders’ equity.
The principal exchange rates used for every unit of foreign currency ruling at the balance sheet date are asfollows:-
2005 2004RM RM
One (1) United States Dollar 3.7670 3.8000
One (1) Vietnam Dong 0.0002 0.0002
One (1) Singapore Dollar 2.2602 2.3258
One (1) Hong Kong Dollar 0.4828 0.4888

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(m) Impairment of Assets
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether thereis any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, impairment is measured by comparing thecarrying values of the assets with their recoverable amounts. Recoverable amount is the higher of net sellingprice and value in use, which is measured by reference to discounted future cash flows.
An impairment loss is recognised as an expense in the income statement immediately, unless the asset iscarried at a revalued amount. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease tothe extent of any unutilised previously recognised revaluation surplus for the same asset.
(n) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flowto the enterprise and the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably.
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when the goods are delivered and accepted by customer.
Rental income is recognised on an accrual basis unless collectibility is in doubt, in which case it is recognisedon a receipt basis.
Dividend income from subsidiary and associated companies are recognised as and when the right to receivepayment is established while dividends from other investments are recognised when received.
(o) Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the cash flow statements, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at bank,deposit at call and short term highly liquid investments which have an insignificant risk of changes in value,net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

34. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(a) Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
The Group’s financial risk management policy seeks to ensure that adequate financial resources are availablefor the development of the Group’s businesses whilst managing its interest rate, foreign exchange, liquidityand credit risks. The Group operates within clearly defined guidelines that are approved by the Board and theGroup’s policy is not to engage in speculative transactions.
(b) Interest Rate Risk
The Group’s primary interest rate risk relates to interest-bearing debt. The Group had no substantial long-term interest-bearing assets as at 31 December 2005 other than amounts due from subsidiary companieswhich bear interest at a fixed rate. The investments in other financial assets are mainly short term in natureand they are not held for speculative purposes but have been mostly placed in fixed deposits which yield betterreturns than cash at bank.
The Group manages its interest rate exposure by maintaining a prudent mix of fixed and floating rateborrowings. The Group actively reviews its debt portfolio, taking into account the investment holding periodand nature of its assets. This strategy allows it to capitalise on cheaper funding in a low interest rateenvironment and achieve a certain level of protection against rate hikes.
The information on maturity dates and effective interest rates of financial assets and liabilities are disclosedin their respective notes.
(c) Foreign Exchange Risk
The Group is not significantly exposed to foreign currency risk as the majority of the Group’s transactions,assets and liabilities are denominated in Ringgit Malaysia except for foreign exchange risks arising fromimports and exports and from a country in which foreign subsidiary companies operate. The currencies givingrise to this risk are primarily United States Dollar (“USD”), Singapore Dollar (“SGD”), Euro (“EURO”),Swiss Franc (“CHF”), Japanese Yen (“JPY”) and Vietnam Dong (“VND”).
The Group is not engaged in any hedging transactions.

34. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT’D)
(d) Liquidity Risk
The Group actively manages its debt maturity profile, operating cash flows and the availability of funding soas to ensure that all refinancing, repayment and funding needs are met. As part of its overall prudent liquiditymanagement, the Group maintains sufficient levels of cash or cash convertible investments to meet itsworking capital requirements. In addition, the Group strives to maintain available banking facilities of areasonable level to its overall debt position. As far as possible, the Group raises committed funding from bothcapital markets and financial institutions and prudently balances its portfolio with some short term fundingso as to achieve overall cost effectiveness.
(e) Credit Risk
Credit risks, or the risk of counterparties defaulting, is controlled by the application of credit approvals, limitsand monitoring procedures. Credit risks are minimised and monitored via strictly limiting the Group’sassociations to business partners with high creditworthiness. Trade receivables are monitored on an ongoingbasis via Group management reporting procedures.
The Group does not have any significant exposure to any individual customer or counterparty nor does ithave any major concentration of credit risk related to any financial instruments.
(f ) Fair Values
The aggregate net fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities which are not carried at fair value onthe balance sheets of the Group and of the Company are represented as follows:-
Group Company Carrying Carrying Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value RM’000 RM’000 RM’000 RM’000
Financial Liabilities:-
Term loans (Note 19)
At 31 December 2005 124,232 153,849 100,000 129,617
At 31 December 2004 115,481 116,130 100,000 104,100
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables,short term borrowings and contingent liabilities approximate their fair values due to the relatively short termnature of these financial instruments.
It is not practicable to determine the fair value of amounts due from/(to) subsidiary and associated companiesdue principally to a lack of fixed repayment term entered by the parties involved and without incurringexcessive costs. However, the Group and the Company do not anticipate the carrying amounts recorded atthe balance sheet date to be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled.
The fair values of all other financial assets and liabilities of the Group and the Company as at 31 December2005 are not materially different from their carrying values.
