(OTCBB: PHIE) (FRANKFURT: PR7) (XETRA: PR7), announced today that the company has completed the name change process to reflect its sole focus on gold mining and has declared a special stock dividend to the company's shareholders.

As part of the restructuring plan, PHI Gold Corp. has declared a special dividend of Indochina Resources, Inc. stock to the company's shareholders of record as of February 28, 2011. Eligible shareholders of PHI Gold Corp. will be entitled to receive 0.13 share of Indochina Resources, Inc. for each share of PHI Gold Corp. held as of the record date. Indochina Resources, Inc. will register the special dividend stock before making the distribution as free-trading shares.

PHI Gold Corporation will use the recently acquired Maisy Mae Mining Inc. as a platform for further acquisitions of gold mines in the Yukon Territory, Canada. It is currently investigating other gold ore properties in the U.S. and Asia.

PHI Gold Corporation will continue to complete the audits of its financial statements and file the required reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission to regain its full reporting status on the OTCBB and upgrade to a senior exchange in the future when appropriate.

Henry Fahman, Chairman of PHI Gold Corp., said, "We are pleased with the progress of PHI Gold's acquisition plan and also intend to bring substantial assets into Indochina Resources, Inc. to create greater value for our shareholders."
