ANNUAL REPORT 2009<br />
Salaries, wages, bonuses, paid annual leave, allowances and social security contributions are recognised as<br />
an expense in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and of the<br />
Company.<br />
ii) Defi ned contribution plans<br />
The Group and the Company makes statutory contributions to the Employee Provident Fund (“EPF”), a defi ned<br />
contribution plan. Obligations for contributions to defi ned contribution plan are recognised as an expense in the<br />
income statement as incurred.<br />
iii) Employee Share Option Scheme<br />
For the equity-settled share-based compensation transactions, the fair value of the employee services received in<br />
exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed on a straightline<br />
basis over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted excluding<br />
the effect of non-market vesting conditions. Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about<br />
the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. Fair value is measured using the Black-Scholes<br />
pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for<br />
the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations. At each balance sheet date,<br />
the Group revises its estimates of the numbers of options that are expected to become exercisable. It recognised<br />
the impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to<br />
equity. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital when<br />
the options are exercised.<br />
l) Financial Instruments<br />
i) Cash and cash equivalents<br />
Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash in hand and bank balances, demand deposits and deposits with<br />
licensed bank, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to insignifi cant risk of change in<br />
value.<br />
ii) Trade and other receivables<br />
Trade and other receivables are carried at anticipated realisable value. Bad debts are written off in the year in which<br />
they are identifi ed. An allowance is made for doubtful debts based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the<br />
balance sheet date.<br />
iii) Financial liabilities<br />
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Group and the Company becomes a party to the contractual agreements<br />
of the instrument.<br />
The particular recognition methods adopted on each of the item in the fi nancial liabilities are set out below:<br />
a) Trade and other payables<br />
Trade and other payables are stated at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future<br />
for goods and services received.
