                               Initial Investment


Vision Opportunity China Fund Limited ("VOC") (AIM:VOC.L) announces the
completion of its first investment since listing on the AIM market. The Company
has made a $2.56 million investment in Astrata Group, Inc. (OTCBB:ATTG).
Astrata, based in Singapore, designs, develops, manufactures and sells
location-based IT services and solutions for homeland security and commercial
applications, worldwide.

In return for its investment, VOC received the following:

   *preferred shares that are convertible into common shares of Astrata at
    $0.70 per share;
   *warrants to purchase approximately 1.83 million common shares of Astrata
    at a purchase price of $1.00 per share and an additional 1.83 million common
    shares at $1.50 per share; and
   *the right to purchase an additional $3.66 million of preferred shares
    over the next 12 months with warrants to purchase approximately 1.83 million
    common shares of Astrata at a purchase price of $1.25 per share and warrants
    to purchase 1.83 million common shares of Astrata at a purchase price of
    $1.75 per share receivable upon making the additional investment.


VOC acted as the lead investor in the $3 million total financing, co-investing
alongside Vision Opportunity Master Fund Ltd, which is chartered and managed
independently from VOC. Astrata is an advanced location-based IT services and
solutions (telematics) business that enables businesses and institutions to
monitor, trace and control the movement and status of machinery, vehicles,
personnel or other assets. It has offices in Asia, the US and Europe.


The co-investment is in accordance with VOC's allocation guidelines and has been
approved by VOC's Investment Committee.

"We have watched Astrata successfully grow its business from a single contract
with the Singapore government to a substantial operation with contracts worth
more than $120 million with several sovereign governments and commercial
institutions. The business has also secured a major supply agreement with
Siemens AG (XETRA:SIE.DE)" stated Adam Benowitz, the portfolio manager of VOC at
Vision Capital Advisors, LLC.
