JARDINE MATHESON HOLDINGS LIMITED (THE 'COMPANY')
Voting Rights and Capital


In conformity with the Transparency Directive's transitional provision 6 we
would like to notify the market of the following:-



As at 29th December 2006 the Company's issued share capital consists of
616,769,775 ordinary shares with voting rights of one vote per share.

The above number of issued shares may be used by shareholders as the denominator
for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify
their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the
Financial Services Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

In addition to the requirements of the Financial Services Authority's Disclosure
and Transparency Rules, there are existing disclosure obligations set out in
Part XVII of the Bermuda Takeover Code which will continue to apply to interests
in the Company's shares.  The obligation to disclose arises if and when a person
is interested in 3% (or, in certain circumstances, 10%) or more of the Company's
shares and if and when such interest moves up or down through a whole percentage
point.  Such notification must be made to the Company within two business days. 
The higher limit of 10% applies, in broad terms, to a person authorized to
manage investments under an investment management agreement or where such person
is the operator of an authorized collective investment scheme.
