1. We acknowledge your response to prior comment 1. We understood that your disclosure did not intend to imply that there is any correlation between the Company’s internal controls and the lack of formal training in U.S. GAAP of our Chief Financial Officer and Finance Manager. However, given the complex scope of your business and the lack of formal training or designations in U.S. GAAP of your senior financial staff there is a risk that your internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective in the future. Please revise your risk factor disclosures accordingly.
RESPONSE: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has amended page 33 to state that, because of the lack of formal training or designations in U.S. GAAP of the Company’s senior financial staff, there is a risk that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not be effective in the future.
