Message from the Board of Directors

Hemaraj Land And Development Public Company Limited financial and

operating results reflect slightly improving economic conditions in Thailand.

For 2001, Hemaraj reported a Net Loss of Baht 493 million, or a loss

of Baht 6.97 per share, on Total Revenue of Baht 1,258 million. The Net

Loss was substantially due to foreign exchange, the provision of legal

reserves, and a high level of interest in comparison to the revenue.

The overall Thailand industrial property market in 2001 increased

modestly. The Hemaraj performance was disappointing as sales of 261

Rai from 22 new customers were primarily from Eastern Seaboard

Industrial Estate and the automotive industry. Petrochemical investment

remains dormant.

The economic conditions continue to constrain the company’s ability

to generate cash flow consistent with the maturity of a high level of debt

obligations. Thus many of the debt obligations are under restructuring.

We were successful in the subscription of a rights issue after the close of

the year, raising Baht 283 million in limited new capital in January of 2002.

The strategy of infrastructure development is to generate recurring and

complementary income enhancing and balancing the cyclical nature of

our industrial estate development. Over time these will provide a more

predictable revenue stream.

With deep regret, our Vice-Chairman colleague and friend Khun Prateep

Trilohaka passed away after an illness in March of 2002. His leadership will

continue to invigorate and inspire us. Our thoughts are with his family.

The support of our shareholders, management, employees, customers,

creditors, and business partners remain encouraging. I would like to

express our appreciation on behalf of the Board of Directors.

Respectfully submitted,

(David R. Nardone)President & Chief Executive Officer

Economic & Competitive Conditions

In 2001, the Thailand economy was continuously impacted by theslowdown of global economies, particularly of the country’s trading partnerssuch as US, EU, and Japan, which resulted in the declines in level of FDI andexport growth. The terrorist attack has further dampened the US economyas well as increased the global worries.

For 2001, the GDP growth index was projected to rise by 1.5 to 1.6percent from the previous year. Manufacturing production growth rose by only1.3 percent with capacity utilization at 54 percent. Many industries especiallyelectronics and computer were directly affected by the slowdown of globaldemand. However, automobile, auto parts, and agricultural product showedan increase in production from the previous year. The Private ConsumptionIndex increased 3.4 percent from a year earlier. Exports in dollar termsdecreased by (6.9) percent. However, imports also decreased by (2.8)percent from the 2000 level. The inflation rate remains stable and low at 1.6percent for the year.

The Board of Investment (BOI) project approvals were 820 projectsapproved representing an investment value of Baht 266 billion in 2001, aslight declined of 4.2% from the previous year. Sales in Thailand of IndustrialLand (source CB Richard Ellis) are estimated at 2,264 rai for 2001, a 50 percentincrease from the previous year.

The automotive market, initially dependant on domestic sales of 590,000vehicles in 1996 dropping to the low of domestic sales of 144,000 vehiclesin 1998, is now stronger and more balanced. In 2001, the modest recoverycontinued with domestic sales of 297,000 vehicles along with 180,000vehicle exports.

The economic prospects for Thailand remain promising with agriculture,electronics, automotive, and tourism generating considerable foreign currencyearnings. The new government’s fiscal and monetary measures of deficitspending such as Village Fund Project, temporary debt moratorium forfarmers, the People’s Bank Project, and the Universal Health Care Schemehave played the major roles to stimulate the domestic consumption.

During the year 2001, the Committee continued to monitor the quarterlyfinancial statements of the Company, check compliance with relevant rules andregulations, review the effectiveness of internal controls and consider thedisclosure of information.

To accomplish these objectives, the Committee met quarterly and discussedinputs from Company management, the Company’s external auditors, external legaladvisers and internal auditors. An independent firm of accountants, reportingdirectly to both the Committee and the Management, commenced work asinternal auditors in March 2000, under an audit program covering the Companyand the local subsidiaries. During the year 2001, the internal audit work donecovered the review of the quarterly financial statements and various aspects of theCompany’s internal controls and systems, relating to both operational andaccounting issues. Particular emphasis was placed on the procedures for makingand receiving payments, and the handling control and transfer of legal and landtitle documents.

The management letter prepared by the external auditors contained anumber of points relating to Company procedures and records. The letter hasbeen reviewed by the Management and the Audit Committee, and wherenecessary corrective actions are being taken. There is also an ongoing need thatthe Company’s junior staff attend periodic development courses to ensure a highstandard of professional competence. Additionally certain improvements havebeen made to the presentation of the financial statements with a view to providinggreater transparency, with full co-operation from Company management.

Auditor’s Report

To the Shareholders of Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited:

I have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited and subsidiaries as at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity, deficit and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the separate financial statements of Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited for the same periods. The Company’s management are responsible for the correctness and completeness of information presented in these financial statements. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.

I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial positions as at December 31, 2001 and 2000, of Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited and subsidiaries, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the separate financial positions as at December 31, 2001 and 2000 and separate results of operations and cash flows of Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited for the same periods, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

2

Without qualifying my opinion, I draw attention to Note 1 to the financial statements. The operations of Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited (“the Company”) and subsidiaries may continue to be influenced by the economic conditions in Thailand and the Asia Pacific Region in general. I also draw attention to Note 17 and Note 18 to the financial statements. Due to the liquidity constraints, the Company has failed to make payments of the principal of the restructuring loans and related interest payable, which were due, and also repayments of the convertible bonds for which the bondholders sought redemption, in accordance with their rights, on September 9, 1998, and all related interest payables due since September 9, 1998. The management have informed me that they have been in the process of negotiating for debt restructuring of which up to date of my report, the results have not yet been determined. In addition, I draw attention to Note 23 to the financial statements. The Company, as a guarantor, has provided reserve for possible loss from lawsuit and as a co-borrower also provided reserve for possible loss from pledge of securities, of which the actual losses could differ from such reserves.

NOTE 23 - RESERVE FOR POSSIBLE LOSS FROM LAWSUITS AND RESERVE FOR POSSIBLE LOSS FROM PLEDGE OF SECURITIES

Hemaraj Land and Development Public Company Limited

- A lawsuit relating to the obligation under guarantee, filed against the Company requiring it to indemnify the amount of Baht 128 million, has been under consideration of the primary court. The Company has reserved the maximum loss that may arise from this case in the financial statements.

- On June 7, 2000, a resolution was passed at the Board of Directors’ Meeting No. 4/2000 approving the Company to provide reserve for possible loss from pledge of securities in the total amount of Baht 235.50 million, according to the securities pledged agreements, against loans to 2 related companies with the credit lines of Baht 105 million and Baht 130.50 million, based on the consideration regarding failure to make loan repayment and substantial doubt about their ability to continue as a going concern.

Subsequently, in the third quarter of 2001, the Company provided an additional reserve in the amount of Baht 158.40 million, based on the consideration regarding the lawsuit, which has been filed against the Company as a co-borrower, requiring it to indemnify the total amount of Baht 484.10 million. However, the Company’s management believes that the maximum loss that the Company would be responsible for would not exceed said reserve.
