Quarterly Portfolio Report as at 30 April 2007

Asian markets broadly recovered from their end-February sell off in March, with
Chinese stocks in particular staging a strong comeback amid expectations that
the authorities would increase the amount foreigners can invest. Australia also
did well, supported by increased liquidity and private equity demand, whilst
materials stocks were buoyed by strengthening commodity prices. Other markets
ending in positive territory were Singapore and Malaysia, the latter underpinned
by government efforts to lure foreign capital and enhance the country's
competitiveness. In contrast, Japan and Taiwan recorded small falls over the
past three months.



Material Events

There were no material events to report during the period.
