Beijing Success new initiative with large media group

Biaoqi Culture film wins award for Best Documentary





Beijing Success Technology Co Ltd ("Success"), the Chinese financial software
company in which London Asia has a 25% stake with an option to increase the
stake to 51%, has reached agreement with China-Morning Information News Group ("
MIN"), a popular securities media group, to provide training courses for people
interested in investing in the securities and futures markets in China.  MIN
will advertise the training courses through its media network, and is
responsible for recruiting students for the courses.  The training, text books
and design of the course will be done by existing Success staff, and will take
place in the offices of Success's distributors, which cover twenty of the
largest cities in China.   MIN is one of the largest Chinese financial
publishers, with its newspaper, Information Morning, having an estimated
subscription of over 20 million people each month.  For information on MIN,

Beijing Biaoqi Culture Development Ltd ("Biaoqi Culture"), the Chinese
publishing and media company in which London Asia has a 51% stake, has won the
award for the Best Documentary in the Ninth Ornamental Pillar Awards issued by
the Chinese Government, which is one of the highest government awards in the
industry. The documentary is about the charming scent, culture and history of "
Gu Lang Yu", a famous small island in China.





Simon Littlewood, Chief Executive of London Asia, said: "The new initiative with
MIN will greatly expand the market recognition of Success's products and its
brand within China, which should lead to additional sales and profits.  We are
delighted that Biaoqi Culture continues to be recognised for its quality
products in its core focus of cultural information, an area likely to expand as
China gears up for the influx of tourists and overseas visits leading up to the
2008 Beijing Olympics."
