PROSPECTUS,
(a) The recent remarkable developments in building in this Colony have resulted in a demand for labour and building materiale that has been unprecedented. Increased costs, consequent upon such demand, necessitate the adoption, where possible, of means whereby nat only may labour be saved but materials produced both quickly and economically. This Company is formed mainly for the purpose of providing plaster and gypsum products which are required in the construction of every building from the small 'house to the largest block of modern offices. "Sunplex Plaster," which the Company proposes to manufactura in this Colony, ie manufactured by a special process, and is at present only obtainable from abroad, and the Promoters are confident that it can be manufactured here and sold for a price considerably below that which the commodity commands in Hongkong at the present time. This plaster is now extensively used in building in this Colony, and is in fact, as experience bas shown, extremely beneficial in the Far East and particularly in Hongkong, for it is impervious to whito ants, does not chip owing to damp, and is practically fireproof, remaining unbroken and unaffected by heat unless of a temperature of 260 to 300 degrees centigrade.
(b) The Company has nequired na a going concern that branch of the business of The China American Industrial Developing Com. pany, Limited, which has been engaged in the manufacture of Simplex Pluster."

Furthermore the agreement with the Vendors provides that the Vendors will place with the Company all ferber orders for the supply of plaster required by the Vendors.
