Had thought this was a tropical paradise but there seems to be some peasantry about. Still, as long as they know their place and doff their caps, will get cook to throw out some scraps.

A report in Saturday's Telegraph - "China has been the New Klondike for a Decade", gives details of disasters that have overtaken the many firms who have sought to cash in on China's booming economy. But it concludes on a highly optimistic note, describing a maturing business climate and an affluent community that that is now emerging, and so better enabling entreprenuers to establish themselves there successfully. Such reports seem to appear regularly nowadays, suggesting to me that this is very much the right time to be investing in China.
PCM has been around, and in the doldrums, for a long time and I feel more and more confident that its time has come.
A trawl through google has disclosed quite a lot of Pacific Medias, at least one of them in Silicon Valley, but happily I could not find any other plcs.
Will keep watching.

I checked out the website and found it well designed with some interesting products. feather bras! tooth whitening kits (do the chinese worry about white teeth I wonder) an exclusive line of cosmetics for TV sales and in the department stores. I think you're right squidd--the chinese are ready to buy we just have to wait for the profits to roll in!!

Moneyplus,
The affluent Asians are very keen on th latest beauty products such as white teeth. Look to Thailand and ask why everything is branded whitening cream ;-)

Yes driver, mine among them, I'm still topping up. I get the feeling the AIM market is brightening up as the Sell in May brigade evaporate.

Driver: Yes, thanks for that. I was probably thinking of ULT where I've just read your post and kicking myself for being left out. I was waiting till they moved over to AIM before buying, and then lost track of them.

I must be very ignorant, leading a sheltered life in some Hampshire backwater, 'cos I didn't know who Edgar Bronfman was, but Google quickly filled me in. E.B. senior (our man) has been described as King of the Jews, whilst only last month, E.B. Jr. was described as one of the world's most powerful men.
Have a read, they seem to be just the family for a PR job, and dad seems to be the right choice for us; Jr. though, is a leading exponent of cash-burn.

I know Driver but that has got to be better than no involvement at all, he would not get involved until his advisers thought that it would be a good thing for him.
So read into that what you will.

IMHO this is going to blow sometime, there several powerfull business men running this and I don't think they want the scraps from the table.
