NAVSTAR ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC ACQUISITION

Profitable Dong Fang Adds to Chinese Media Portfolio

NEW YORK, December 23, 2005 – Navstar Media Holdings, Inc. (NVMH.OB) (“Navstar”) announced that it has entered a Master Agreement to assume operation control of and acquire a 70% interest in the combined entity of Dong Fang Zheng Yi Film & TV Communication Co., Ltd. and Beijing Dong Fang Zheng Yi Film Investment Consulting Co., Ltd. (Dong Fang). According to the master Agreement entered into with the shareholders of Dong Fang on December 18, 2005, Navstar will pay $800,000 in cash and issue 6.2 million shares of common stock to effect the purchase. Navstar also agreed to infuse $1.6 million directly into the operations of Dong Fang.

        Dong Fang, formed in 1998, has produced some of the most popular television mini-series in China. Dong Fang’s TV mini-series are carried across China by major national, regional and local TV networks. According to audited financial statements, Dong Fang earned a net income of $661,593 on sales of $2,943,901 for the fiscal year 2004. According to unaudited figures provided by Dong Fang, for the first six months of 2005 the net income reached approximately $719,305 earned on sales totaling $3,279,102. (The figures for the first half of 2005 are subject to final audit and may vary in the final audited report.)

        Dong Fang’s close business relationship with government-owned CCTV and its high quality content affords the airing of its programming throughout the nation on state-owned television stations. The company’s expansion plans include making its productions available on the Internet for those unable to watch at the time of airing.

        Navstar CEO Don B. Lee said, ” Dong Fang is a transformational addition to our portfolio of media offerings in China. Their television production capabilities and distribution system throughout the Chinese market puts them at the forefront of satisfying the explosive growth in demand for media there. We look forward to the synergies that this acquisition will engender. The acquisition of Dong Fang is part of our strategy to grow through both internal growth and acquisitions. We will continue to pursue such growth strategy in the future.”
