CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT(continued)

PRELUDE

Viztel Group of Companies (the “Group”) faced enormous challenges in 2008. The global financial crisis sparked off by developments in the US had seriously affected business sentiments and confidence. With the setbacks in the Malaysian market and several significant but mandatory accounting adjustments as described in the Financial Performance Section below, the Company was indeed in a difficult situation.

The decline in sales was certainly not due to lack of efforts or business strategies but rather a manifestation of a broader market condition that emanated from the global crisis that was beyond the control of the Group. Many ‘sure’ orders were held back or deferred while profit margins dropped in an alarming manner.

The changed business conditions require efficient and effective business operations, increasing productivity i.e. doing more with fewer resources, and a network of outsourcing partners to move forward. The company has focused on reducing capital expenditures and streamlining the processes with a rigorous demand on systems. These include the use of quality management tools such as a human resource management system as well as an efficient document management system.

In the midst of all of this difficult news, the good news are the potentials generated for the provision of Human Capital competency systems. Operational efficiency and increased productivity are being emphasized by organizations. Enterprise Software Automation is one way to ensure this takes place and one area that the Group has embarked on. The various government stimulus packages are also directed towards improving productivity.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

For the year ended 31 December 2008, the Group recorded revenue of only RM676,783 which represents a 55.5% drop compared to the total revenue of RM1,522,313 in the preceding year. As a result, the Group sufferred a loss after taxation of RM4,754,540 in 2008 compared to the loss after taxation of RM444,100 in the preceding year.

The loss was mainly due to the recognition of impairment losses totaling RM3,691,590, of which RM1,689,364 was impairment loss of development costs, RM1,200,000 of intangible assets and RM802,226 of goodwill. In arriving at the decision to recognise these losses, the Directors had carefully carried out reviews of the recoverable amount of the relevant development costs, intangible assets and goodwill, and have concluded that the assets are unable to generate sufficient future economic benefits, hence, their carrying values may not be recoverable and they are justified to be recognised as been impaired. There were also write offs totaling RM320,521 for plant and equipment as well as deposits. Although staff costs appeared to be increased by 150%, there was actually no significant increase in the total amount incurred. The bloated figure was due to the lower amount of staff costs been capitalised under development costs.

As at 31 December 2008, the Group has a deficit in shareholders’ equity of RM887,027. On 27 February 2009 and subsequently amended on 6 March 2009, Viztel Solutions Berhad (Viztel) announced that the Group had become an Affected Listed Company pursuant to Guidance Note No. 3/2006 (GN3) of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad for the MESDAQ Market. In light of the aforesaid circumstances, the Group is in the process of evaluating various options to meet its obligations under GN3 including the formulation of a plan to regularise its financial condition. The last day for submission of the regularisation plan by the Group to the Approving Authority is on 27 October 2009.

OPERATIONS REVIEW

The Group has actively participated in several tenders in the area of IT Infrastructure as well as Solutions. Utilizing our core strengths as well as our technology partners, the Group is now recognized as one of the leading IT Infrastructure and Solution providers in Malaysia, which is evident in Viztel receiving more invitations to participate in tender processes. We have been shortlisted in several key tenders and the results will be known soon in the second half of 2009.

For our product solutions portfolio, following the K-Khutbah suite that was awarded to Viztel in 2007, MIMOS has further awarded the full suite of the K-Masjid Portal in 2008 to the Group. This has enhanced Viztel InfoChannel product solution suite. During the period under review, we have deployed the K-Mosque solution to sites in Pahang and Penang with further new sites to be deployed in Pahang as well as Perak.

Via our internal cost reduction exercise and in collaboration with our strategic technology partners, we have also developed our Enterprise Software Automation suite, namely V-DMS and V-HURMAT. V-DMS is Viztel Document Management System and V-HURMAT is Viztel Human Resource Management System. These systems can be deployed on the Enterprise LAN, web-based platform as well as packaged as a SaaS (Software as a Service) suite of solutions. This Enterprise Software Automation tools will soon be deployed to sites in Perlis as well as Pahang.

We have also embarked on a new service offering – Technology Testing Services. This service includes providing system-testing services for Hardware, Software and Network Systems. We have been awarded by MIMOS to be their partner in providing this Testing Services to the market. We expect this service to continue to grow in 2009 and to be one of our major revenue contributors.

PROSPECTS

With the current global economic downturn, the Group foresees worsening market conditions and greater challenges ahead in the financial year ending 31 December 2009. Many export and trade dependent economies in South East Asia are grappling with the deteriorating economic landscape with central banks forecasting negative GDP growth in 2009.

In response to the uncertain economic situation, we will maintain our prudent approach to business management and continue to adopt measures focusing on stringent cost containment, continuous improvements in the Group’s operational efficiency and effectiveness as well as prudent management of head count and close monitoring of staff performance.

On the business front, we will continue to deploy appropriate strategies and resources to meet the challenges ahead. We strive to enhance and extend our product applications to address more complex business requirements as well as exploit new business opportunities by expanding into new line of businesses and services.

We will leverage on our technical expertise and continue to direct our sales efforts towards new markets and segments.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

OUTLOOK OF ICT INDUSTRY

The economic environment is tough and we believe it will remain tough for the next few quarters. Clearly, ICT spending is being scrutinized more now than it has been at any point in the 2003 to 2007 timeframe and for sure customers are showing more caution. Customers are continuing to spend in key areas that are core to their business. We also see the trend of customers focusing their ICT investments on areas that help them gain cost savings and increase their market advantage. In other words, companies that are able to make key investments to help gain market share are trying to take advantage of the economic climate while being careful to delay non-essential investments. This caution by the customers is manifesting itself in two related ways. Firstly, we are seeing customers fund ICT spending that have faster ROI’s, and secondly, we are seeing greater focus that technology is aligned with business objectives. Hence, the customer approval cycle is going through more senior management layers. In some cases, this means that the approval cycle takes longer - but fairly often we see that the focus on ROI and business alignment has shortened the approval cycle in some cases since many corporations are operating under a strong sense of urgency to get ahead of their competitors.

BUSINESS OFFERINGS

With the above in mind, the Group will continue to leverage its business opportunities in the following areas :-

• Technology Testing Services. This services include providing system-testing services for Hardware, Software and Network Systems. With the strength of our partner, MIMOS, we expect this service to continue to grow in 2009 and to be one of our major revenue contributors.

• Speech Solutions. Being a pioneer in delivering speech enabled solutions, the Group will continue to service the sector by focusing on further deployment of the system, maintenance and integration with a broader range of other systems. We are also assessing the viability of offering voice applications suite based on SaaS (Software as a Service) platform.

• ICT Infrastructure and Solutions. The Group will continue to actively participate in tenders in the area of IT Infrastructure and Solutions. After the restructuring of Viztel Systems Sdn. Bhd. (VSSB), the Group is now better poised to bid for major tenders in the market. This is evident in VSSB receiving more invitations to participate in tender processes. We have also been shortlisted in several key tenders and the results will be known soon in the second half of 2009 and early 2010.

• Enterprise Software Automation. V-DMS (Viztel Document Management System) and V-HURMAT (Viztel Human Resource Management System) will continue to be improvised, offered and deployed based on Enterprise LAN, web-based platform as well as packaged as a Software as a Service suite of solutions.

• InfoChannel Solutions. The Group will also focus on delivering mosque-centric community infochannel (K-Mosque / K-Masjid / Komunti Masjid) and government infochannel. Following the K-Khutbah suite that was awarded to Viztel in 2007, MIMOS has further awarded the full suite of the K-Masjid Portal in 2008 to the Group. This has enhanced our InfoChannel product solution suite.

The Group is currently awaiting the decision of several tenders and RFQ (Request for Quote) placed with several potential major customers for the above offerings. If awarded, the contracts would achieve a significant proportion of the Group’s forecasted revenue. Meanwhile, the Group will continue its efforts to secure more projects from various sources, including government and government linked companies.

www.viztelsolutions.comAnnual Report 2008

Viztel Solutions Berhad (489232-W)12

The Board of Directors of Viztel Solutions Berhad (“the Board”) affirms its overall responsibility in ensuring that the highest standard of Corporate Governance is practiced throughout the Group, which is critical to building and enhancing long-term shareholders’ value and financial position of the Group. Apart from observance of the Principles and Best Practices on Corporate Governance as set out in the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance(“the Code”), the Board has also moved to put in place stringent parameters and measures for adherence by the management.

The Board is pleased to report that during the financial year ended 31 December 2008, it had practiced good corporate governance in directing and managing the business affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries (“the Group”).

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Composition of the Board and Board Balance

The current Board has six (6) members, comprising five (5) Independent & Non-Executives Directors and one (1) Executive Director. This composition complies with paragraph 15.02 of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (Bursa Securities) for the MESDAQ Market that requires a minimum of two (2) or one-third (1/3) of the board to be independent Directors, whichever is higher.

The existing Board is as follows:

Directors Directorate

Dahlan Independent & Non-Executive ChairmanDato’ Rozabil @ Rozamujib bin Abdul Rahman Non-Independent & Executive Deputy ChairmanDato’ Che Sulaiman bin Shapie Independent & Non ExecutiveEncik Abdul Rahman bin Mohamed Rejab Independent & Non-ExecutiveMr. Lim Beng Guan Independent & Non-ExecutiveEncik Azirruan bin Arifin Independent & Non-Executive

They are independent of management and free from any business relationship that could materially interfere with the exercise of their judgement or the ability to act in the best interests of the Group and of the minority shareholders.

The Independent Directors can also provide second opinion more effectively because they come from numerous backgrounds.

The Executive Directors who have good knowledge of the business are responsible for implementing the corporate strategies and policies as well as charged with the management of the day-to-day operations of the business. The Non-Executive Directors complement the skills and experience of the Executive Directors in the formulation of corporate strategies and policies through their knowledge and experience of relevant sectors.

The differing roles of the Chairman and Executive Directors are clearly delineated in their fiduciary duties towards better corporate governance. The Chairman is responsible for ensuring Board effectiveness, implementation of policies and decisions, corporate affairs and overall financial performance of the Group whilst the Executive Directors has overall responsibility over the operating units, organisational effectiveness, coordinating the development and implementation of business and corporate strategy as well as the implementation of Board policies and decisions.

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the financial statements of Viztel Solutions Berhad which comprise the balance sheets as at 31 December 2008 of the Group and of the Company, and the income statements, statements of changes in equity and cash flow statements for the financial year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes, as set out on pages 30 to 63 (Note : pages 10 to 62 on the attested copy of the Document).

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act 1965 in Malaysia. This responsibility includes designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies, and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements have been properly drawn up in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act 1965 in Malaysia so as to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company as of 31 December 2008 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the financial year then ended.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 5 (a)(i) to the financial statements which indicates that the Group has a deficit in shareholders’ equity of RM887,027 as a results of loss suffered during the financial year of RM4,754,540. These conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in Note 5(a)(i) to the financial statements, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. On 27 February 2009 and subsequently amended on 6 March 2009, Viztel Solutions Berhad announced that the Group had become an Affected Listed Company pursuant to Guidance Note No. 3/2006 of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad for the MESDAQ Market. The appropriateness of the going concern basis used in the preparation of the financial statements is dependent on the Group’s ability to generate sufficient operating cash flows to enable it to sustain its business operations and the ability to regularise its financial condition.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2008 ... (continued)

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES (continued)

(b) Credit Risk

The Group’s exposure to credit risks, or the risk of counterparties defaulting, arises mainly from receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risks is represented by the total carrying amount of these financial assets in the balance sheet reduced by the effects of any netting arrangements with counterparties.

The Group has a major concentration of credit risk related to the amount owing by three major customers that constituted 91% of the total trade receivables of the Group at the balance sheet date.

The Group manages its exposure to credit risk by the application of credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures on an ongoing basis.

(c) Liquidity and Cash Flow Risks

The Group’s exposure to liquidity and cash flow risks arises mainly from general funding and business activities.

It practises prudent liquidity risk management by maintaining sufficient cash balances.

4. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The financial statements of the Group are prepared under the historical cost convention and modified to include other bases of valuation as disclosed in other sections under significant accounting policies, and in compliance with Financial Reporting Standards (“FRS”) and the Companies Act 1965 in Malaysia.

(a) During the current financial year, the Group has adopted the following:

(i) FRSs issued and effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2007:

FRS 107 Cash Flow Statements FRS 111 Construction Contracts FRS 112 Income Taxes FRS 118 Revenue FRS 120 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance FRS 134 Interim Financial Reporting FRS 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

FRS 111 is not relevant to the Group’s operations. The adoption of the other standards did not have any material impact on the form and content of disclosures presented in the financial statements.

(ii) Amendment to FRS 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates - Net Investment in a Foreign Operation issued and effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2007.

The adoption of this amendment did not have any material impact on the financial statements of the Group.

(iii) IC Interpretations issued and effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2007:

IC Interpretation 1 Changes in Existing Decommissioning, Restoration and Similar Liabilities IC Interpretation 2 Members’ Shares in Co-operative Entities and Similar Instruments IC Interpretation 5 Rights to Interests arising from Decommissioning, Restoration and Environmental Rehabilitation Funds IC Interpretation 6 Liabilities arising from Participating in a Specific Market - Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment IC Interpretation 7 Applying the Restatement Approach under FRS 1292004 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies IC Interpretation 8 Scope of FRS 2

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2008 ... (continued)

4. BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

(b) The Group has not adopted the following FRSs and IC Interpretations that have been issued as at the date of authorisation of these financial statements but are not yet effective for the Group and the Company:

(i) FRS issued and effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009:

FRS 8 Operating Segments FRS 8 replaces FRS 1142004 Segment Reporting and requires a “management approach”, under which

segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. The adoption of this standard only impacts the form and content of disclosures presented in the financial statements of the Group. This FRS is expected to have no material impact on the financial statements of the Group upon its initial application.

(ii) FRSs issued and effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010:

FRS 4 Insurance Contracts FRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures FRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement

FRS 4 is not relevant to the Group’s operations. The possible impacts of FRS 7 and FRS 139 on the financial statements upon their initial applications are not disclosed by virtue of the exemptions given in these standards.

(iii) IC Interpretations issued and effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010:

IC Interpretation 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives IC Interpretation 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment

IC Interpretation 9 is not relevant to the Group’s operations. IC Interpretation 10 prohibits the impairment losses recognised in an interim period on goodwill and investments in equity instruments and in financial assets carried at cost to be reversed at a subsequent balance sheet date. This interpretation is expected to have no material impact on the financial statements of the Group upon its initial application.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Critical Accounting Estimates And Judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated by the directors and management and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates and judgements that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures, and have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses are discussed below:-

(i) Going Concern

At the balance sheet date, the Group had the following:-

(i) loss after taxation of RM4,754,540 for the financial year; (ii) deficit in shareholders’ equity of RM887,027; and(iii) accumulated losses of RM15,935,569.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2008 ... (continued)

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(a) Critical Accounting Estimates And Judgements (continued)

(i) Going Concern (continued)

On 27 February 2009 and subsequently amended on 6 March 2009, the Group announced that it had become an Affected Listed Company pursuant to Guidance Note No. 3/2006 (“GN3”) of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Security Berhad for the MESDAQ Market. In light of the aforesaid circumstances, the Group is in the process of evaluating various options to meet its obligations under GN3 including the formulation of a plan to regularise its financial condition. The last day for submission of the regularisation plan by the Group to the Approving Authority (as defined by GN3) is on 27 October 2009.

The Group is currently awaiting the decision of a tender placed with a potential major customer. If awarded, the contract would achieve a significant proportion of the Group’s forecasted revenue. Meanwhile, the Group continue its efforts to secure more projects from various sources, including government and government linked companies.

The directors consider that in preparing the financial statements, they have taken into account all information that could reasonably be expected to be available. On this basis, they consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis. This assumes that either the contract is awarded to the Group or that the regularisation plan is successful, thus resulting in the Group being able to operate profitably in the foreseeable future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the contract were not awarded to the Group and the Director’s alternative plans were not successful.

(ii) Depreciation of Plant and Equipment

The estimates for the residual values, useful lives and related depreciation charges for the plant and equipment are based on commercial and production factors which could change significantly as a result of technical innovations and competitors’ actions in response to the market conditions.

The Group anticipates that the residual values of its plant and equipment will be insignificant. As a result, residual values are not being taken into consideration for the computation of the depreciable amount.

Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development could impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.

(iii) Income Taxes

There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination may be different from the initial estimate. The Group recognises tax liabilities based on its understanding of the prevailing tax laws and estimates of whether such taxes will be due in the ordinary course of business. Where the final outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such difference will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination may be different from the initial estimate.

(iv) Impairment of Assets

When the recoverable amount of an asset is determined based on the estimate of the value-in-use of the cash-generating unit to which the asset is allocated, the management is required to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit and also to apply a suitable discount rate in order to determine the present value of those cash flows.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(a) Critical Accounting Estimates And Judgements (continued)

(v) Allowance for Doubtful Debts of Receivables

The Group makes allowance for doubtful debts based on an assessment of the recoverability of receivables. Allowances are applied to receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Management specifically analyses historical bad debt, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful debts of receivables. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of receivables.

(b) Financial Instruments

Financial instruments are recognised in the balance sheet when the Group and the Company have become parties to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument classified as a liability, are reported as an expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity.

Financial instruments are offset when the Group and the Company have a legally enforceable right to offset and intend to settle either on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Financial instruments recognised in the balance sheet are disclosed in the individual policy statement associated with each item.

(c) Functional and Foreign Currency

(i) Functional and Presentation Currency

The functional currency of the Group is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”) which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and Balances

Transactions in foreign currency are converted into the respective functional currencies on initial recognition, using the exchange rates approximating those ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are translated at the rates ruling as of that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using exchange rates that existed when the values were determined. All exchange differences are taken to the income statement.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(c) Functional and Foreign Currency (continued)

(iii) Foreign Operations

The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency for consolidation purpose on the following basis:-

(i) assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of the balance sheet;

(ii) income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates for the year; and

(iii) all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity, as a foreign currency translation reserve. On disposal, accumulated translation differences are recognised in the consolidated income statements as part of the gain or loss on sale.

(d) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiaries made up to 31 December 2008.

A subsidiary is defined as a company in which the parent company has the power, directly or indirectly, to exercise control over its financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

All subsidiaries are consolidated using the purchase method. Under the purchase method, the results of the subsidiaries acquired or disposed of are included from the date of acquisition or up to the date of disposal. At the date of acquisition, the fair values of the subsidiaries’ net assets are determined and these values are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The cost of acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination.

Intragroup transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions are eliminated; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to ensure consistency of accounting policies with those of the Group.

Minority interests in the consolidated balance sheets consist of the minorities’ share of fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree as at the date of acquisition and the minorities’ share of movements in the acquiree’s equity.

Minority interests are presented in the consolidated balance sheet of the Group within equity, separately from the Company’s equity holders, and are separately disclosed in the consolidated income statement of the Group.

(e) Intangible assets

(i) Goodwill on Consolidation

Goodwill on consolidation represents the excess of the fair value of the purchase consideration over the Group’s share of the fair values of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiaries at the date of acquisition.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(e) Intangible assets (continued)

(i) Goodwill on Consolidation (continued)

Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The carrying value of goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually. The impairment value of goodwill is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.

If, after reassessments, the Group’s interest in the fair values of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiaries exceeds the cost of the business combinations, the excess is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement.

(ii) Research and Development Expenditure

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense when it is incurred.

Development expenditure is recognised as an expense except that expenditure incurred on development projects are capitalised as long-term assets to the extent that such expenditure is expected to generate future economic benefits. Development expenditure is capitalised if, and only if the Group can demonstrate all of the following:-

(i) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the asset under development;(ii) the product or process is technically and commercially feasible;(iii) its future economic benefits are probable;(iv) its ability to use or sell the developed asset; and(v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the asset under

development.

Capitalised development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any. Development expenditure initially recognised as an expense are not recognised as assets in the subsequent period.

The development expenditure is amortised on a straight-line method over a period of 5 years when the products are ready for sale or use. In the event that the expected future economic benefits are no longer probable of being recovered, the development expenditure is written down to its recoverable amount.

(iii) Other Intangible Assets

An intangible asset shall be recognised if, and only if it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and that the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. An entity shall assess the probability of the expected future economic benefits using reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management’s best estimate of the set of economic conditions that will exist over the useful life of the asset. An intangible asset shall be measured initially at cost.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on a straight line basis calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its estimated useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the income statement in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(e) Intangible assets (continued)

(iii) Other Intangible Assets (continued)

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually either individually or at the cash generating unit level. Such intangibles are not amortised. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

(f) Investments

(i) Investments in Subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost in the balance sheet of the Company, and are reviewed for impairment at the end of the financial year if events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable.

On the disposal of the investments in subsidiaries, the difference between the net disposal proceeds

and the carrying amount of the investments is taken to the income statement.

(ii) Investments in Associates

An associate is an entity in which the Group has a long-term equity interest and where it exercises significant influence over the financial and operating policies.

The investments in associates in the consolidated financial statements are accounted for under the equity method, based on the financial statements of the associates made up to 31 December 2008. The Group’s share of the post acquisition profits of the associates is included in the consolidated income statement and the Group’s interest in associates is stated at cost plus the Group’s share of the post-acquisition retained profits and reserves.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and the associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered.

(iii) Other Investments Other investments held on a long-term basis are stated at cost less allowance for permanent

diminution in value.

On the disposal of these investments, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investments is taken to the income statement.

(g) Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is calculated under the straight-line method to write off the depreciable amount of the assets over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of an asset does not cease when the asset becomes idle or is retired from active use unless the asset is fully depreciated. The principal annual rates used for this purpose are:- Furniture and fittings 20% Office equipment 20% Computer equipment 20% - 33 1/3% Renovation 20%

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2008 ... (continued)

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(g) Plant and Equipment (continued)

The depreciation method, useful life and residual values are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of the plant and equipment.

An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of the asset is included in the income statement in the year the asset is derecognised.

(h) Impairment of Assets

The carrying values of assets, other than those to which FRS 136 - Impairment of Assets does not apply, are reviewed at each balance sheet date for impairment when there is an indication that the assets might be impaired. Impairment is measured by comparing the carrying values of the assets with their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount of the assets is the higher of the assets’ net selling price and its value- in-use, which is measured by reference to discounted future cash flow.

An impairment loss is charged to the income statement immediately unless the asset is carried at its revalued amount. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease to the extent of a previously recognised revaluation surplus for the same asset.

In respect of assets other than goodwill, and when there is a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount, a subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset is treated as a reversal of the previous impairment loss and is recognised to the extent of the carrying amount of the asset that would have been determined (net of amortisation and depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised. The reversal is recognised in the income statement immediately, unless the asset is carried at its revalued amount. A reversal of an impairment loss on a revalued asset is credited directly to the revaluation surplus. However, to the extent that an impairment loss on the same revalued asset was previously recognised as an expense in the income statement, a reversal of that impairment loss is recognised as income in the income statement.

(i) Receivables

Receivables are carried at anticipated realisable value. Bad debts are written off in the period in which they are identified. An estimate is made for doubtful debts based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the balance sheet date.

(j) Payables

Payables are stated at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services rendered.

(k) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Where effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is the present value of the estimated expenditure required to settle the obligation.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(l) Income Taxes

Income taxes for the year comprise current and deferred tax.

Current tax is the expected amount of income taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the year and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences other than those that arise from goodwill or excess of the acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the business combination costs or from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is recognised in the income statement, except when it arises from a transaction which is recognised directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also charged or credited directly to equity, or when it arises from a business combination that is an acquisition, in which case the deferred tax is included in the resulting goodwill or excess of the acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the business combination costs. The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax assets to be utilised.

(m) Equity Instruments

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from proceeds.

Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised as liabilities when approved for appropriation.

(n) Segmental Information

Segment revenue and expenses are those directly attributable to the segments and include any joint revenue and expenses where a reasonable basis of allocation exists. Segment assets include all assets used by a segment and consist principally of plant and equipment (net of accumulated depreciation, where applicable), other investments, inventories, receivables and cash and bank balances.

Most segment assets can be directly attributed to the segments on a reasonable basis. Segment assets do not include income tax assets, whilst segment liabilities do not include income tax liabilities and borrowings from financial institutions.

Segment revenue, expenses and results include transfers between segments. The prices charged on intersegment transactions are based on normal commercial terms. These transfers are eliminated on consolidation.

(o) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, bank balances, demand deposits, deposits pledged with financial institutions, bank overdrafts and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(p) Employee Benefits

(i) Short-term Benefits

Wages, salaries, paid annual leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits are accrued in the period in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group.

(ii) Defined Contribution Plans

The Group’s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the income statement in the period to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group has no further liability in respect of the defined contribution plans.

(q) Related Parties

A party is related to an entity if:-

(a) directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, the party:- (i) controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the entity (this includes parents,

subsidiaries and fellow subsidiaries);(ii) has an interest in the entity that gives it significant influence over the entity; or(iii) has joint control over the entity;

(b) the party is an associate of the entity;(c) the party is a joint venture in which the entity is a venturer;(d) the party is a member of the key management personnel of the entity or its parent;(e) the party is a close member of the family of any individual referred to in (a) or (d);(f) the party is an entity that is controlled, jointly controlled or significantly influenced by, or for which

significant voting power in such entity resides with, directly or indirectly, any individual referred to in (d) or (e); or

(g) the party is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of the entity, or of any entity that is a related party of the entity.

Close members of the family of an individual are those family members who may be expected to influence, or be influenced by, that individual in their dealings with the entity.

(r) Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required or the amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably.

A contingent liability is not recognised but is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. When a change in the probability of an outflow occurs so that the outflow is probable, it will then be recognised as a provision.

A contingent asset is a probable asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain events not wholly within the control of the Group.

Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the cost that it is intended to compensate. Grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised as income on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.

(“Smartdial”) (a former subsidiary of the Group) and certain directors of the Company for services allegedly provided by them pursuant to a Strategic Alliance Agreement (Global IP) which was entered into between Smartdial with TTDC. The Statement of Defense was filed on 3 May 2007 and the case is fixed for a Pre-trial Case Management on 22 May 2008 before the Judge.

38. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is defined as the amount at which the financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, other than in a forced sale or liquidation.

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial assets and liabilities of the Group and of the Company:-

(a) Unquoted Investments

It is not practicable to estimate the fair values of the Group and the Company’s unquoted investments because of the lack of quoted market prices and the inability to estimate their fair values without incurring excessive costs. However, the Group and the Company believe that the carrying amounts represent the recoverable amounts.

(b) Bank Balances and Short-term Receivables / Payables

The carrying amounts approximated their fair values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments.

38. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

(c) Contingent Liabilities

The nominal amount and net fair value of financial instruments not recognised in the balance sheets of the Group and of the Company are as follows:-

The Group The Company

Nominal Net Nominal Net Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value RM RM RM RM

At 31 December 2008 (a) Performance guarantee 151,930 * - -(b) Claims by TT Dotcom Sdn. Bhd. 1,405,693 # 1,405,693 # At 31 December 2007 (a) Performance guarantee 147,100 * - -(b) Claims by TT Dotcom Sdn. Bhd. 1,405,693 # 1,405,693 #

* The fair value of contingent liabilities of the Company is expected to be minimal as the third party is expected to complete the performance.

# It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of contingent liabilities of the Group reliably due to uncertainties of timing, costs and eventual outcome.

The details of the contingent liabilities are disclosed in Note 33 to the financial statements.
