Is MSG an unhealthy food?
This is a pure misconception. MSG is in fact a natural amino acid. Daily foods such as tomato, cheese, mushroom and milk contain MSG. It is made from the fermentation of materials containing glucose, like starch, molasses, rice, and corn, with no added chemicals. On a dietary basis, it causes absolutely no harm to the human body. In addition, MSG is endorsed by many international institutions including the United States Food and Drug Administration, which categorizes MSG as “Generally Recognized As Safe” (GRAS) and is in the same category as sugar, salt and vinegar. Please refer to International Glutamate Information Service (igis) for more information.

Why chose Vietnam as the major production base?
Vietnam is a suitable site in many aspects, including its supply of raw materials, its economy and its geographical location. Vietnam is rich in agricultural products, and can provide the Group with a stable and abundant supply of raw materials. It is located in the heart of Asia and is undergoing satisfactory economic development. It is also politically stable and the local government is also very supportive of foreign investors. In addition, it shares a very similar food and beverage culture with China, and is in itself a major market for MSG in Asia.

What is your dividend policy?
