REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT

REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT
Translation of a report originally issued in Thailand
To The Shareholders of Loxley Public Company Limited
I have audited the balance sheets of Loxley Public Company Limited and the
consolidated balance sheets of Loxley Public Company Limited and subsidiaries as at
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of income, deficit, changes in
shareholders' equity and cash flows and the consolidated statements of income, deficit,
changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management as to their
correctness and completeness of the presentation. My responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on my audits. I did not audit the financial
statements of certain associated companies for the year ended December 31, 1997, the
investments in which are reflected in the accompanying financial statements using the
equity method of accounting. The balance of investments in the said associated
companies as of December 31, 1997 amounting to Baht 563.2 million, which is
equivalent to 3.6% of total assets in the consolidated balance sheet and 4.5% of total
assets in the Company balance sheet. The equity in results of their operations
included in the statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1997 amounted to
net income of approximately Baht 15.4 million, which is equivalent to 0.4% of
consolidated net income (loss) and the Company net income (loss) for the year then
ended. The financial statements of those associated companies were audited by other
auditors whose reports have been furnished to as , and my opinion, insofar as it relates
to the amounts included for those entities, are based solely on the reports of other
auditors.
Except as discussed in the third paragraph, I conducted my audits in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I
believe that my audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for
my opinion.

The Company accounts for the investments in subsidiaries and associated
companies by the equity method. The financial statements of certain associated
companies, which were used as a basis for accounting for the investments under the
equity method, had not been audited. The investments in such associated companies
at December 31, 1998 and 1997 amounted to approximately Baht 603 million and Baht
468 million, respectively, which is equivalent to 5% and 3% of total assets in the
consolidated balance sheets and 6% and 4% in total assets of the Company balance
sheets. The equity in results of operations of such associated companies which were
included in the statements of income for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
amounted to net income of approximately Baht 148 million and net loss of
approximately Baht 202.7 million, respectively, which is equivalent to 12% and 5 % of
consolidated net income (loss) and 11% and 5 % of the Company net income (loss).
In my report dated March 25, 1998, my opinion on the 1997 financial statements
was qualified as being except for the effects of non-provision for loss on decline in value
of investments in listed securities. However, in 1998, the Company retroactively
adjusted this provision of approximately Baht 1,068 million to the 1997 financial
statements which presented in "Loss on Decline in Value of Long-Term Investments in
Listed Securities" and shown as part of "Capital Deficiency" in the 1997 balance sheet to
conform with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, my present
opinion on the 1997 financial statements, as expressed herein, is different from that
expressed in my previous report.
In my opinion, based on my audits and the reports of other auditors except for
the effect of such adjustments, if any, as might have been required had the results of the
audit of financial statements of associated companies as explained in the third
paragraph been known, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial positions of Loxley Public Company Limited and Loxley
Public Company Limited and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 4.2 to the financial statements, in 1997, the Company
changed the method of accounting for income taxes.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, which summarizes the effect
of the current economic environment in Thailand on the Company and subsidiaries, the
operations of the Company and subsidiaries have been affected and will continue to be
affected for the foreseeable future by the country's unstable economy and currency
volatility in the Asia Pacific region. The accompanying financial statements do not
include any adjustment that might result from these uncertainties.
