Dear Shareholders,

The decrease in revenueof17.99%andthelossincurredcomparedto the last financial year were mainly due to weak market sentiments for the localcleanroom industryduring the financial year under review amidst the slowingglobalgrowthandweakeningUSeconomycoupled with oil price hikes which in turn affectedthemarketsectorsofthecleanroomservicessuchastheslowdownintheelectronicsector.

In view of the loss incurred during the financial year, the Group’s net assets stood at RM17.987 million,a decrease of RM3.893 million over the previousfinancial year of RM21.880 million.

There-brandingexercise isalso in linewith theGroup’sintention to enhance its corporate profile for its regionalexpansionplan.

In 20 November 2007, the Group managed toobtain the ISO 9001-2000 certification for Quest FilterSdn.Bhd.(“QF”),awholly-ownedsubsidiaryofEnvair.QF,whichisinvolvedinthemanufacturingofdomestic water filtration products, has commenced its operations in the final quarter of the previous financial year. Currently, QF is still undergoing its

gestation period primarily attributable to start-upandmarketentrycostsbutweexpectimprovementoncethisbusinessgrows.

The Group also recognises the importance ofresearch and development (“R&D”) activities andduring the financial year under review, the Group hasspentRM165,000or33%ofthetotalallocationofRM500,000forR&Dexpensesfromitslistingproceedson product development as part of its on-goingstrategiestobroadenitsrevenuebaseandimproveitsprofitability. Some of the new product developments for its domestic water filtration segment are currently in the early stage of commercialisation under QF.TheGroupwillcontinuewith itsR&Deffort tokeepabreastwithmarketdevelopmentandtechnologytrendstostaycompetitive.

Subsequentcostsareincludedintheasset’scarryingamountorrecognisedasaseparateassets,as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial year in which they are incurred.

The difference between the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired at the date of acquisition is reflected as goodwill or reserve on consolidation. Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions are eliminated. Unrealised lossesarealsoeliminatedunlesscostcannotberecovered. (d) Associates Associates are enterprises in which the Group exercises significant influence, but which it does not control.

Various risk management actions aretakendependingontheassessmentoftheimpactandlikelihoodoftherisk. (b) Foreign currency risk The Group does not have significant foreign currency exposure to any effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as at 31 December 2007.

(ii) Financeleaseliabilities The fair value of finance lease liabilities is estimated using the discounted cash flow analysis based on current incremental lending rates for similar types of lending and borrowing arrangements.
