The problems that foreign telecom service providers have faced in accessing China's market should improve as foreign companies will be permitted to establish joint venture operations in domestic or international data services without quantitative restrictions in Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shanghai—though the foreign investment share may not exceed 25 percent. Foreign companies will be able to invest up to 49 percent. Although, PRC was officially admitted to the World Trade Organization (the “
WTO
”), it is still not clear how this agreement may be changed in future.

The numerous and often vague restrictions on acceptable content in the PRC subject us to potential civil and criminal liability, temporary blockage of our website or complete cessation of our website. For example, the State Secrecy Bureau, which is directly responsible for the protection of state secrets of all Chinese government and Chinese Communist Party organizations, is authorized to block any website it deems to be leaking state secrets or failing to meet the relevant regulations relating to the protection of state secrets in the distribution of online information.

An investment is reviewable if there is an acquisition of a Canadian business and the asset value of the Canadian business being acquired equals or exceeds the following thresholds:
|
|
|
(a)
|
For non-WTO investors, the threshold is $5 million for a direct acquisition and $50 million for an indirect acquisition; the $5 million threshold will apply however for an indirect acquisition if the asset value of the Canadian business being acquired exceeds 50% of the asset value of the global transaction;
|
|
|
(b)
|
Except as specified in paragraph (c) below, a threshold is calculated annually for reviewable direct acquisitions by or from WTO investors. The threshold for 2005 is $250 million. Pursuant to Canada's international commitments, indirect acquisitions by or from WTO investors are not reviewable;
|
|
|
(c)
|
The limits set out in paragraph (a) above apply to all investors for acquisitions of a Canadian business that:
|
|
|
(i)
|
engages in the production of uranium and owns an interest in a producing uranium property in Canada;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
provides any financial service;
|
|
|
(iii)
|
provides any transportation services; or
|
|
|
(iv)
|
is a cultural business.
|
|
2.
|
Notwithstanding the above, any investment which is usually only notifiable, including the establishment of a new Canadian business, and which falls within a specific business activity, including the publication and distribution of books, magazines, newspapers, film or video recordings, audio or video music recordings, or music in print or machine-readable form may be reviewed if an Order-in-Council directing a review is made and a notice is sent to the Investor within 21 days following the receipt of a certified complete notification.
|
|
1.
|
An acquisition of voting shares if the acquisition were made in the ordinary course of that persons' business as a trader or dealer in securities;
|
|
2.
|
An acquisition of control of the Company in connection with the realization of a security interest granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for any purpose related to the provisions of the ICA;
|
|
3.
|
The acquisition of voting interests by any person in the ordinary course of a business carried on by that person that consists of providing, in Canada, venture capital on terms and conditions not inconsistent with such terms and conditions as may be fixed by the Minister; and
|
|
4.
|
Acquisition of control of the Company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of the Company, through the ownership of voting interests, remains unchanged.
|
|
1.
|
Inadequate segregation of duties over certain information system access controls. Although there were no major error or incident noted during the evaluation, the control deficiency carries significant risk of management overrides and unauthorized and approved transactions.
|
|
2.
|
There was no human resources department in the Company; the monthly salary calculations were conducted by the accounting department instead of human resources. The lack of segregation of duties would not ensure the calculation of salary’s accuracy, and possibilities for staff receiving payment for work not attended. There was also the potential risk of management override.
|
|
3.
|
Purchase requisitions and purchase orders were not prepared, only oral indication was given by management. Purchases could be initiated and executed for other uses or purchased goods or services could be misappropriated for other uses. There was also the potential risk of fraud for these purchases.
|
|
4.
|
Several instances of sales agreements were not properly numbered, some agreements were missing and cancelled agreements were destroyed. Without written sales orders, it was difficult to ensure the completeness of sales, which might result in the risk of errors of record in the financial statement.
