Notes:

1.  Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
Hong Kong Statements of Standard Accounting Practice ('HKSSAP'),
accounting  principles generally accepted in Hong Kong  and  the
disclosure  requirements of the Companies Ordinance (Chapter  32
of  the  Laws of Hong Kong). They have been prepared  under  the
historical  cost  convention,  modified  with  respect  to   the
measurement of investments in securities.

2.  Turnover and revenue

Turnover  mainly  represents toll income from the  operation  of
expressways, the value of advertising services rendered, and the
value  of  road maintenance services rendered, net  of  relevant
revenue taxes.

An analysis of turnover and revenue is as follows:

                                                  2000      1999

Revenue                                      1,431,492 1,218,026


The Group is subject to the following types of revenue taxes:

--  Business  Tax ('BT'), levied at 5% on toll income and  3%-5%
    on other services income;
--  City Development Tax, levied at 1% to 7% of BT;
--  Education Supplementary Tax, levied at 3.5% to 4% of BT; and
--  Culture  &  Education Fees, levied  at  3%  on  advertising
    income.

3.  Tax

No  Hong Kong profits tax has been provided as the Group had  no
taxable profits in Hong Kong during the year.

The  Group  was subject to the Corporate Income Tax (the  'CIT')
levied  at  a rate of 33% of taxable income based on income  for
financial  reporting  purposes prepared in accordance  with  the
laws and regulations in the People's Republic of China ('PRC').

According to approvals from Zhejiang Provincial Local Tax Bureau
dated  February  12,  2001 and December 11,  2000  respectively,
Zhejiang  Shangsan  Expressway Co.,  Ltd.  ('Shangsan  Co')  and
Zhejiang  Expressway  Advertising Co., Ltd.  ('Advertising  Co')
were  qualified  for the exceptions under the category  of  'New
enterprise  providing  employment  opportunities  to   redundant
workers'  as  defined in the relevant national  tax  rules,  and
therefore,  were entitled to the exemption from  CIT  for  three
years  starting  from  January  1,  1998  and  January  1,  1999
respectively.

Pursuant  to a directive issued by Zhejiang Provincial  People's
Government  in 1997, the Company was entitled to a  refund  from
the  Zhejiang Finance Bureau, of an amount equal to 18%  of  its
taxable  income  in  respect of the CIT  paid  to  the  taxation
bureau.

On  January  11,  2000,  the State Council  issued  a  directive
numbered 2000(2), in respect of correcting the  finance  refund
policies  adopted by local governments with effect from  January
1, 2000.

However,  a further directive numbered 2000(99) was subsequently
released  by  the  Ministry of Finance dated October  13,  2000,
according  to which listed companies can continue to  enjoy  the
'33%  pay  first,  18% refund later' policy until  December  31,
2001. Nevertheless, such beneficial treatment was not granted to
subsidiaries,  associates  or  jointly-controlled  entities   of
listed companies.

In  this regard, the tax refunded and refundable represents  the
financial  subsidies received and receivable by the  Company  in
respect of the year.

                                                  2000      1999

There was no material unprovided deferred tax in respect of  the
year (1999: Nil).

4.  Transferred to reserves

In accordance with the Company Law of the PRC and the respective
articles  of  association  of  the  Company,  its  subsidiaries,
associates  and jointly-controlled entity (the 'Entities'),  the
Entities  are  required to allocate 10% of  their  profit  after
taxation,  as  determined in accordance with the PRC  accounting
standards  and  regulations applicable to the Entities,  to  the
statutory surplus reserve (the 'SSR') until such reserve reaches
50%  of  the  registered  capital of the  Entities.  Subject  to
certain  restrictions set out in the Company Law of the PRC  and
the  Entities' articles of association, part of the SSR  may  be
converted to increase the Entities' share capital.

In addition, Shangsan Co and Advertising Co were required by the
relevant tax authorities to transfer the CIT waived for 1999  to
their  respective  SSR account in 2000. The  transfer  has  been
incorporated in these financial statements.

In  accordance with the Company Law of the PRC, the Entities are
required  to transfer 5% to 10% of their profit after  taxation,
as  determined  in accordance with PRC accounting standards  and
regulations applicable to the Entities, to the statutory  public
welfare  fund (the 'PWF'), which is a non-distributable  reserve
other than in the event of the liquidation of the Entities.  The
PWF  must  be  used  for capital expenditure  on  staff  welfare
facilities  and  these facilities remain as  properties  of  the
Entities.

The  Directors  have  proposed  to  transfer  Rmb57,063,000  and
Rmb28,531,000  to  the  SSR  and  the  PWF,  respectively.  This
represents  15%  of  the  Company's  profit  after  taxation  of
Rmb570,629,000 determined in accordance with the PRC  accounting
standards.   The transfer to the PWF is subject to shareholders'
approval at the forthcoming annual general meeting.

According to the relevant regulations in the PRC, the amount  of
profit  available for distribution is the lower  of  the  amount
determined  under the PRC accounting standards  and  the  amount
determined under GAAP.

As   at   December  31,  2000,  the  Company  had  reserves   of
approximately Rmb339,302,000 available for distribution  by  way
of cash or in kind.

As  at December 31, 2000, in accordance with the Company Law  of
the  PRC,  the amount of approximately Rmb3,633,159,000 standing
to  the  credit  of  the  Company's share  premium  account  was
available for distribution by way of capitalisation issues.

6.  Earnings Per Share

The  calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the net
profit from ordinary activities attributable to shareholders for
the  year  of  Rmb636,001,000  (1999:  Rmb548,311,000)  and  the
4,343,114,500  shares  (1999:  4,343,114,500  shares)  in  issue
during the year.

Diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2000
and  1999 have not been calculated as no diluting event  existed
during these years.
BUSINESS REVIEW

During  the  Period,  the Group achieved solid  growth  in  both
turnover  and net profit, which increased by 13.13%  and  15.99%
over  those  of  1999  to  RMB1,188.604 million  and  RMB636.001
million,  respectively. Income generated from the core  business
of  toll  roads operations continued to constitute the  dominant
share  of  overall  revenue, whilst contributions  from  certain
ancillary  businesses such as road-side advertising demonstrated
outstanding growth potential.

Toll Road Operations

During   the   Period,  toll  income  for  the   Group   reached
approximately  RMB1,219.7 million, representing an  increase  of
approximately12.1%  over that of 1999.  Contributions  from  the
Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway (comprising Jiaxing Section,
Yuhang  Section  and  Hangzhou Section of the  Shanghai-Hangzhou
Expressway,  and  the Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway)  and  Shangsan
Expressway, respectively, were as follows:

Expressway' below.

Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway

The   Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo  Expressway  (Zhejiang  section),
totaling  248km in length, became fully operational in  December
1998.  With 20 toll stations and three service areas, it is  the
only  expressway  directly linking the  three  major  cities  of
Shanghai,  Hangzhou and Ningbo along the East  Coast  of  China,
forming part of the twelve 'National Trunk Roads' planned by the
central government.

While  the overall traffic volume along the expressway  grew  by
approximately 20% on average over that of 1999, the  growth  was
not evenly distributed throughout the Period, with a higher-than-
average growth rate during the first half of the year mainly due
to  the  temporary  closure  of  certain  sections  of  parallel
national roads for maintenance and renovations during the period
which diverted additional traffic to the expressway.

Of  the  RMB1,181,472,000 toll income collected on the Shanghai-
Hangzhou-Ningbo  Expressway in 2000, 14.5% was  attributable  to
entrance fees.

Shangsan Expressway

The  Shangsan  Expressway (formerly known as the  Shangyu-Sanmen
Road)  is  a 142km four-lane expressway connecting the Hangzhou-
Ningbo  Expressway  and  the Ningbo-Taizhou-Wenzhou  Expressway,
with  a  total  of  11  toll stations and  three  service  areas
situated in between.

The construction of the Shangsan Expressway was divided into two
phases.  Phase 1, consisting of four short sections in  Shangyu,
Shenzhou,  Xinchang and Tiantai with a total length  of  37.5km,
has been operational since February 1997 whilst the construction
of Phase 2 commenced in February 1998.

Due  to  the  construction of Phase 2, Phase  1  had  been  only
partially operational since January 2000, until the entire Phase
1  ceased toll collection in August 2000. Average daily  traffic
volume in full trips during the period of partial operation  was
6,699 vehicles, representing a decrease of 7.9% over the average
in  1999.  The  entire  Shangsan Expressway  was  completed  and
formally  opened  to  traffic  and started  toll  collection  on
December 26, 2000.

The  operation  of,  and the toll collection  on,  the  Shangsan
Expressway  is carried out by Shangsan Co. which  will  also  be
responsible for routine maintenance. Major overhauls will be put
out to tender.

The  audited  net  asset value of Shangsan Co,  as  prepared  in
accordance  with the generally accepted accounting  practice  in
the  PRC  as  of  December  31, 2000  is  approximately  RMB2.58
billion.

Shida Road

Shida  Road  is  a 9.45km connecting road operated  by  Hangzhou
Shida  Highway Co., Ltd. ('Shida Co'). Its main function  is  to
provide  an  additional  route  for  traffic  flow  between  the
Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway and the  city  of  Hangzhou.
Average  daily traffic volume in 2000 grew by 60% over  that  of
1999  to reach approximately 4,104 vehicles, and toll income  in
2000  grew  by  82%  over  that of 1999 to  reach  approximately
RMB11,033,000.

Although  interest  payments on commercial  loans  continued  to
outweigh  operating  profit, and Shida Co  recorded  a  loss  of
approximately  RMB15,568,000 during the year, the  operation  of
Shida  Road  nevertheless enhanced the overall accessibility  of
the    Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo   Expressway.   The    Directors
anticipate  that the profitability of Shida Co will  improve  as
more  vehicles are expected to use Shida Road for access to  the
Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway.

Other Businesses

Petroleum Co

The  global  rise  in crude oil and product  prices  during  the
Period  did  not  have  a  significant impact  on  the  business
performance of Petroleum Co. However, due to changes in the  PRC
distribution system of petroleum products, which took  place  in
late  1999,  Petroleum  Co's  wholesale  business  in  petroleum
products was reduced by approximately 50% compared with that  of
1999.  In  response  to  this latest development,  Petroleum  Co
reduced  its registered capital by RMB200 million, and refocused
its  business operations on retail sales of petroleum  products.
Petroleum Co's net profit contribution to the Group in 2000  was
approximately RMB28,130,000, representing a return on capital of
approximately 26%.

Advertising Co

Advertising  Co,  which  operates  billboard  advertising  along
expressways  operated by the Group, was successful  in  reaching
out  to  a  wider  market through extensive use of  intermediate
advertising  agents.  Turnover for the  year  was  approximately
RMB14,155,000,  and net profit was approximately  RMB12,735,000,
representing  increases  of 175% and 326%  over  that  of  1999,
respectively.

JoinHands Technology

JoinHands  Technology Co., Ltd. ('JoinHands  Technology')  is  a
start-up  company  principally engaged  in  the  application  of
computer  technologies  in the areas of anti-counterfeiting  and
modern   logistics  management  networks.  Since  the  Company's
investment   in   April  2000,  JoinHands  Technology   made   a
breakthrough in opening up markets with the introduction of  its
technology to the local merchandising market. Various degrees of
headway   in  marketing  were  also  made  in  areas   such   as
agricultural  products,  finance,  pharmaceuticals,  publishing,
taxation  receipts and legal certificates. Turnover in 2000  was
approximately  RMB6,250,000, and a net profit  of  approximately
RMB250,000 was realized for the first time.

Project Development

During  the  Period, the Company actively pursued  a  number  of
potential  investment projects, two of which  came  to  fruition
with acquisition costs amounting to RMB191.3 million.

In  April  2000,  the Company invested an aggregate  of  RMB18.5
million   to   acquire  a  30%  equity  interest  in   JoinHands
Technology.  Details of this acquisition were disclosed  in  the
Company's announcement dated April 7, 2000.

In  September  2000, the Company further acquired  a  6%  equity
interest in Shangsan Co through two separate acquisitions for  a
total  consideration of RMB172.8 million, details of which  were
disclosed  in  the  Company's announcement dated  September  25,
2000.

OUTLOOK FOR 2001

Economic  outlook  in  2001  for  Zhejiang  Province   and   its
neighboring cities and provinces continues to be optimistic. The
provincial  government  recently announced  a  9%  annual  gross
domestic product growth target for the next five years from 2001
to 2005, as well as plans to accelerate the urbanization process
already  underway in many parts of Zhejiang Province.  With  the
pending  accession  of the PRC to the World Trade  Organization,
Zhejiang  Province  is well positioned both  geographically  and
economically to enter a new stage of rapid economic growth.

Steady  growth in personal wealth and decrease in passenger  car
prices over the past few years have created a sizeable demand in
private   vehicle  ownership,  especially  in  the  economically
dynamic East Coast region of the PRC. The Directors believe that
this  potential  demand would likely lead to  a  surge  in  road
traffic, benefiting toll road operators such as the Company.

The  Shangsan  Expressway  was successfully  opened  to  traffic
before  the end of 2000, bringing the Group's toll road  mileage
from  approximately  285km to approximately 390km.  Toll  income
from  the newly opened Shangsan Expressway will become  a  major
revenue  contributor to the Group in 2001, in  addition  to  the
network  effect created by its direct linkage with the Shanghai-
Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway. The Company is confident  about  the
continued growth in traffic volume on these expressways in 2001.

The  Company intends to apply to the China Securities Regulatory
Commission  and the Shanghai Stock Exchange of the PRC  for  the
issue by way of public offer and placement of not more than  300
million  A  shares in 2001. Details of the proposed  application
and  proposed  use of proceeds were disclosed in  the  Company's
announcements  dated  January 10, 2001  and  February  2,  2001,
respectively.

The  Company  will strive to seize the moment to further  expand
its   business  operations  in  the  toll  road  sector,   while
continuing   to   seek   investment   opportunities   in   other
infrastructure  sectors with maximizing shareholders'  value  as
the ultimate objective.

DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS AND OTHER MATTERS

Change of Shareholding

On  December  28, 2000, Zhejiang Provincial High  Class  Highway
Investment  Co,. Ltd. ('Provincial Investment Co')  and  Huajian
Transportation  Economic Development Centre ('Huajian')  entered
into  a State-owned share transfer agreement whereby 476,760,000
shares  of  RMB1.00 each in the share capital  of  the  Company,
representing approximately 11% of the total issued share capital
of the Company, will be transferred to Huajian.

Upon  completion  of  the share transfer,  the  shareholding  of
Provincial  Investment Co in the Company will  be  reduced  from
approximately 67% to approximately 56% of the total issued share
capital of the Company, and Huajian will hold approximately  11%
of the total issued share capital of the Company.

Impact of Housing Reform Policies

On  September 6, 2000, the Ministry of Finance of the PRC issued
a  directive  (the  'Directive') numbered Caiqi  (2000)  295  in
respect  of  accounting  policies in relation  to  the  national
enterprise housing reform. The Company has examined the relevant
issues,  and has concluded that the Directive does not have  any
significant impact on the results and financial standing of  the
Group for the Period.

Neither  the  Company nor its subsidiaries has purchased,  sold,
