Foreign currency amounts are translated by using the reference rate quoted by the Bank of
Thailand as at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.
11.2 Risk Management
The Company has both local and foreign sales in USD currency, which result in revenues and
accounts receivable in USD currency. In addition, the Company has accounts payable, loans
and interest expense in the same currency. Thus, the Company believes it is able to
manage currency exchange risk by matching cash receipt with the debts and interest in
foreign currencies.

11.3 Fair values of financial assets and liabilities
The net fair value of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing monetary
financial assets and financial liabilities of the economic entity approximates their
carrying value.
The net fair value of other monetary financial assets and financial liabilities is based
upon market values.
Equity investments traded on organized markets have been valued by reference to market
prices prevailing at balance date. For non-traded equity investments, the net fair value
is an assessment by the directors based on the underlying net assets, future maintainable
earnings and special circumstances pertaining to a particular investment.
11.4 Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual
obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company.
The Company has a credit risk management policy to obtain collateral from the customers
before commencing the trade. The collateral may include bank guarantee or cash guarantee.
In the case of recognized financial assets, the carrying amount of the assets recorded in
the consolidated balance sheet, net of a portion of allowance for doubtful debts,
represents the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk.
11.5 Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk in the balance sheet arises from the potential for a change in interest
rates to have an adverse effect on the net interest earnings of the Company in the current
reporting period and in future years.
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

17. OPERATIONS OF SUBSIDIARIES
17.1 On February 19, 1999, the Board meeting of Padaeng Poongsan Metals Co., Ltd.
passed the resolution to approve the discontinuation of its business and to write down
certain assets to be realizable value in the financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1998. The valuation of subsidiary's assets was determined by an independent
appraisal. The valuation included appraisal of the buildings, land improvements, machinery
and equipment of the subsidiary at Lamchabang Industrial Estate.
The valuation excluded land and building at Moo-Ban Panya at Chonburi Province, furniture
and fitting, office equipment, inventories of consumables and spares and other stocks of
scrap and work in progress. In the opinion of the valuer, the most reasonable basis for
determining the fair market value of the subsidiary was to assess the estimated gross
amount that the property would realize if sold on a negotiated individual basis in an "as-
is, where-is" condition and location, either as a complete unit or on piece-meal basis.
The following property, plant and equipment for sale of Padaeng Poongsan Metals Co., Ltd.
