INTERPRETATION ON THE SCORES

 

The subject is the representative office of a Singapore company named Comin Asia Pte Ltd. Comin Asia Pte., Ltd was established and has been operating under Singapore laws, and now located at 17 Phillip Street, # 05-02 Grand Building, Singapore 048695. This company established its representative office in Vietnam since 1996, based in two strategic cities: Hanoi and Hochiminh city. At the moment, at the given address, the subject and another company named Comin Vietnam Company share the same location, the same contact lines and the same management board. Comin Vietnam Company was set up in 1998 as a 100% foreign owned company which was invested from Comin Asia Pte Ltd in Singapore. So, the subject and Comin Vietnam have the same parent company. Currently, both the subject and Comin Vietnam company are operating parallel and mutually.  The two ones sometimes exchanges the roles of one another for business purposes. And the operations of these two entities are not clear. (Comin Vietnam company is now focusing on installing power projects, power products, industrial products, mechanical & electrical contracting and maintenance services. Its customers are power utilities, industrial park, heavy industry, power companies, telecom & industry sectors, plants, hospital, office buildings, hotels, foreign government organizations, etc…).

 

Because the subject is the representative office, it is not allowed to have trading activities. According to Vietnam business laws, it is only permitted promoting, marketing and providing consultancy services for its parent company’s operation. In Vietnam now, the trading activities are carried out by Comin Vietnam company.

 

The premises and facilities of the subject are fair. The subject has two offices, one in Hanoi (No.14-16 Ham Long street, Hoan Kiem district) and one in Hochiminh city (No.108 Cach Mang Thang Tam street, district 3). These locations are also the addresses of Comin Vietnam company. Currently, in Ha Noi office, there are about nearly 50 staffs, both of the subject and Comin Vietnam and in Hochiminh office, this number is 40 persons. The management board of the subject is fairly good. It shares the same management board with Comin Vietnam company. Its managers are experienced persons.

It has capacity to meet financial commitments if it is guaranteed by its parent company. No caution needed for small and normal business transactions.
