Hong Kong – April 3, 2007

The 13^th annual The Wall Street Journal Asia 200 Survey (the “Asia 200”) has named Giordano International Limited first in Hong Kong for innovativeness in responding to customer needs.

The Asia 200 survey was first conducted in 1993 by the WSJA’s sister publication, the Far Eastern Economic Review. The 2006 installment of Asia 200 identifies the most admired publicly traded companies in Asia based on five key leadership criteria: management’s long-term vision; innovativeness in responding to customer needs; quality of products and services; reputation, such as good corporate governance and workplace and environmental policies; and financial soundness. A total of 3,049 executives and professionals participated in the survey.
