The subject has set up a joint venture Asian Fruits Ltd. [Asian Fruits], a BVI-registered firm, with Asian Citrus Holdings Ltd. [Asian Citrus].  Asian Fruits has set up a wholly-owned subsidiary Asian Fruits Trading (Dongguan) Ltd. [Asian Fruits Trading], in Dongguan City, Guangdong Province, China.  Currently, Asian Fruits Trading is sourcing oranges from farmers in Jiangxi Province, China, for export.  Asian Citrus has 46% stake in Asian Fruits Trading.
