Introductory Note

This annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2008, has been filed to amend the disclosure under Item 9A Controls and Procedures and to refile the certifications required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 (Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2).  Accordingly, this amendment only includes Item 9A and the Exhibit 31 certifications, which omit paragraph 3 since the financial statements have not been changed.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  

Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.  It is our management’s responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting.

Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our chief executive and chief financial officers, concluded that because of the significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2008.

Based upon their evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that there were material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report.  In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Our management concluded that, as of September 30, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on these criteria.  Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer identified weaknesses related to our accounting personnel’s ability to identify various accounting and disclosure issues, account for transactions that include an equity-based component, and prepare financial statements and footnotes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Until June 2006, we were a privately-owned company engaged with all of our assets and operations located in China, and our financial statements were prepared in accordance with PRC GAAP.  Since we became a publicly-traded company, we have significantly expanded the scope of our business, so that we presently have four business segments.  We have also engaged in two financings, entered into joint ventures, acquired and disposed of companies and assets, and granted equity-based incentives.  All of these events presented complex accounting issues which were new to our financial staff.  Furthermore, we do not have a large accounting department and it has been difficult for us to hire qualified personnel who understand English and Chinese and are familiar with both U.S. GAAP and PRC GAAP.  We are addressing these issues by reviewing and revising our internal accounting policies and procedures, expanding the resources allocated to our accounting department, and hiring outside accounting advisors.  We expect resolution of these matters may take several months.  

The conclusion of chief executive officer and chief financial officer regarding our disclosure controls and procedures is based solely on management’s conclusion that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

 Our material weaknesses related to:

• an insufficient complement of personnel in our corporate accounting and financial reporting function with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of US GAAP commensurate with our complex financial accounting and reporting requirements and materiality thresholds.

• Lack of internal audit function-the monitoring function of internal control is not well performed due to insufficient capable resources. In addition, the scope and effectiveness of internal audit function are yet to be developed.

• Insufficient or lack of written policies and procedures relating to periodic review of current policies and procedures and their implementation.

Our deficiency related to the lack of adequate training of employees, especially those recently hired, on our accounting policies and our antifraud programs.

Remediation and Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company has discussed the material weaknesses and deficiency in its internal control over financial reporting with the audit committee of the board of directors and is in the process of developing and implementing remediation plans to address the material weaknesses and deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, management conducted a program to plan the remediation of all identified deficiencies using a risk-based approach based on the “Internal Control — Integrated Framework” issued by COSO. These plans contemplate various changes in process, procedures, policy, training and organizational design, and are currently being implemented. In addition, the Company intends to hire and/or appoint new managers in the accounting area and/or engage accounting professionals from external resources to address internal control weaknesses related to technical accounting.

The following specific remedial actions were currently in process, to address the material weaknesses and deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting described above:

• Reorganize and restructure our corporate accounting staff by:

• revising the reporting structure and establishing clear roles, responsibilities, and accountability;

• hiring additional technical accounting personnel to address our complex accounting and financial reporting requirements;

• assessing the technical accounting capabilities at our subsidiaries to ensure the right complement of knowledge, skills, and training; and

• establishing internal audit functions,

• Improve period-end closing procedures by:

• ensuring that account reconciliations and analyses for significant financial statement accounts are reviewed for completeness and accuracy by qualified accounting personnel;

• implementing a process that ensures the timely review and approval of complex accounting estimates by qualified accounting personnel and subject matter experts, where appropriate;

• developing better monitoring controls for corporate accounting and at our subsidiaries,

• documenting and implementing antifraud programs and controls as well as comprehensive risk assessment of procedures, programs and controls, and

• making efforts to develop written policies and procedures, but the progress has been slowed due to limited resources and personnel changes.

Due to lack of qualified personnel in the region, we were not able to hire sufficient internal audit resources before the end of 2008. During 2008, we hired an internal audit manager and, we will increase our efforts to hire qualified personnel.  We anticipate that we will be able to complete the remediation before September 30, 2009.
