Euro Tech Holdings Announces Stock Buyback

HONG KONG, December 6,/PRNewswire/--Euro Tech Holdings Company
Limited (Nasdaq: CLWT: CLWTW) ("Euro Tech") today announced that
its Board of Directors has approved a program to repurchase up
to 125,000 shares of its issued and outstanding stock by
December 31, 2001. This gives Euro Tech the ability to purchase
the stock in the open market or through negotiated or block
transactions from time to time based on market and business
conditions over the next 12 months. "The Board has a high degree
of confidence in Euro Tech's future and believes that this
expectation is not reflected in the current stock price which is
also much lower than our net asset value on a per share basis,"
stated T.C. Leung, Chairman and CEO of Euro Tech. "Purchasing
our shares allows us to demonstrate this confidence and we
believe it is an appropriate investment of Euro Tech's excess
cash. We believe that we will have cash on hand after the
repurchase for our day-to-day business operations and planned
projects."

	Certain statements in this news release regarding Euro
Tech's expectations, estimates, present view of circumstances or
events, and statements containing words such as estimates,
anticipates, intends, or expects, or words of similar import,
constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
statements indicate uncertainty and Euro Tech can give no
assurance with regard to actual outcomes. Specific risk factors
may include, without limitation, having Euro Tech's offices and
operations situated in Hong Kong and China, doing business in
China, competing with Chinese manufactured products, competing
with Euro Tech's own suppliers, dependence on vendors, and lack
of long term written agreements with suppliers and customers,
development of new products, entering new markets, possible
downturns in business conditions, increased competition, loss of
significant customers, availability of qualified personnel and
the timely deployment of resources.
