1,100,000 Shares of Common Stock

This is the initial offering of common stock of Lam Liang Corp. and no
public market currently exists for the securities being offered. Lam
Liang Corp. is offering for sale a total of 1,100,000 shares of its
common stock on a "self-underwritten", best efforts, all-or-none basis,
which means our officers and directors will attempt to sell all of the

for a period of 180 days from the date of this prospectus, and may be
extended by our Board of Directors for an additional 90 days. There is
no minimum number of shares required to be purchased. We intend to open
a standard bank checking account to be used only for the deposit of
funds received from the sale of shares in this offering. If all shares
are not sold and the total offering amount is not deposited by the
expiration date of the offering, all monies will be returned to
investors, without interest or deduction.
Lam Liang Corp. is a development stage, start up company and currently
has limited operations. Any investment in the shares offered herein
involves a high degree of risk. You should only purchase shares if you
can afford a complete loss of your investment. BEFORE INVESTING, YOU
SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THIS PROSPECTUS AND, PARTICULARLY, THE RISK
FACTORS SECTION, BEGINNING ON PAGE 7. Neither the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission nor any state securities division has approved or
disapproved these securities, or determined if this prospectus is
current or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal
offense.

all funds will be returned promptly to the subscribers, without

General Information about Our Company
- -------------------------------------
Lam Liang Corp. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 12,
2004. We were formed to design, produce and sell fashionable computer
laptop cases for women through our subsidiary, Maha San Lam Liang Co.
Ltd., a Thai corporation, in Bangkok, Thailand. We are a development
stage company and have not yet opened for business or generated any
revenues. We have been issued a "substantial doubt" going concern
opinion from our auditors and our only asset is our cash in the bank,
consisting of $5,000 in cash generated from the issuance of shares to
our founders. We have never intended and do not intend to be a
blank check company. We have a specific business plan and do not
intend to engage in any merger, acquisition or business reorganization
with any entity.
Our administrative offices are currently located at the residence of
our President, Dr. Anchana Chayawatana, which she donates to us on a
rent free basis at #2202 The Lakes, 123 Rachidapisek Road, Bangkok
10110 Thailand. We have reserved an office and are currently in the
process of negotiating and signing the lease with the lease term to
commence March 1, 2005 for a term of one year, with a renewal option
for a further one year at the end of the term. The office is
located at Unico House (Unit 12D/1) 12th Floor, 29/1 Soi Langsuan,
Ploenchit Road, Bangkok 10330 Thailand. The office space consists of

is an office and the other which we will use as a reception area and
showroom for our bags. The monthly rent is approximately $280 US, not
including utilities. Our registered statutory office is located at 711
S. Carson Street, Suite 4, Carson City, Nevada 89701. Our fiscal year

RISK FACTORS
=============
An investment in these securities involves an exceptionally high degree
of risk and is extremely speculative in nature. Following are what we
believe are all of the material risks involved if you decide to
purchase shares in this offering.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR COMPANY:
=================================
1. Since we are a development stage company, have generated no revenues
and lack an operating history, an investment in the shares offered
herein is highly risky and could result in a complete loss of your
investment if we are unsuccessful in our business plans.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Our company was incorporated in October 2004; we have not yet commenced
our business operations; and we have not yet realized any revenues. We
have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future
prospects can be made. Such prospects must be considered in light of
the substantial risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by new
entrants into the highly competitive fashion/computer accessories
industries. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and
positive cash flow is highly dependent upon a number of factors,
including our ability to attract and retain customers to purchase our
inventory, while keeping costs to a minimum. Based upon current plans,
we expect to incur operating losses in future periods as we incur
significant expenses associated with the initial startup of our
business. Further, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in
realizing revenues or in achieving or sustaining positive cash flow at
any time in the future. Any such failure could result in the possible
6
closure of our business or force us to seek additional capital through
loans or additional sales of our equity securities to continue business
operations, which would dilute the value of any shares you purchase in
this offering.
2. We do not yet have any substantial assets and are totally dependent
upon the proceeds of this offering to fully fund our business.
If we do not sell all of the shares in this offering and receive
all of the proceeds, we will have to seek alternative financing to
complete our business plans or abandon them.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
The only cash currently available is the cash paid by our founders for
the acquisition of their shares. In the event we do not sell all of
the shares and raise the total offering proceeds, there can be no
assurance that we would be able to raise the additional funding needed
to implement our business plans or that unanticipated costs will not
increase our projected expenses for the year following completion of
this offering. Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt as to our
ability to continue as a going concern.
3. We cannot predict when or if we will produce revenues, which could
result in a total loss of your investment if we are unsuccessful in our
business plans.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
We have not yet produced any products and have not yet generated any
revenues from operations. In order for us to continue with our plans
and open our business, we must raise our initial capital to do so
through this offering. The timing of the completion of the milestones
needed to commence operations and generate revenues is contingent on
the success of this offering. There can be no assurance that we will
generate revenues or that revenues will be sufficient to maintain our
business. As a result, you could lose all of your investment if you
decide to purchase shares in this offering and we are not successful in
our proposed business plans.
4. Our continued operations depend on current fashion trends. If the
public doesn't find our products and designs suitable for purchase and
we cannot establish a customer base, we may not be able to
generate any revenues, which would result in a failure of our
business and a loss of any investment you make in our shares.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The novelty and the design of our Lam Liang brand computer bags is
important to our success and competitive position. Our inability to
develop and offer unique and fashionable products that are appealing to
our customers could harm our business. We cannot be certain that
fashionable computer bags will be appealing to or purchased by the
public. Should the demand not materialize for high fashion computer
bags, our sales could be limited and we may never realize any revenues.
In addition, there are no assurances that our future designs will be
successful and any unsuccessful designs could adversely affect our
business and any possible revenues.
5. The loss of the services of Dr. Anchana Chayawatana could
severely impact our business operations and future development of
products, which could result in a loss of revenues and your ability to
ever sell any shares you purchase in this offering.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Our performance is substantially dependent upon the creative expertise
of our President, Dr. Anchana Chayawatana. Dr. Chayawatana plans to
7
spend as much time as needed working with our company and our
subsidiary in designing and developing our product line; however, she
is a also a very busy dentist and there is no guarantee she will not
leave the company at some time in the future. It may be difficult to
find sufficiently qualified individuals to replace Dr. Chayawatana
or other key management personnel if we were to lose any one of them.
The loss of the services of Dr. Chayawatana could have a material
adverse effect on our business, development, financial condition and
operating results if we are unable to replace her with another
individual qualified to design and develop our products. The loss of
Dr. Chayawatana's services could result in a loss of revenues, which
could result in a reduction of the value of any shares you purchase in
this offering.
6. The fashion and computer accessories industry is highly competitive.
If we can not successfully compete, our business may be adversely
affected and we may never be able to generate revenues.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
The fashion and computer accessories industry is intensely competitive
and fragmented. We will compete against a large number of well-
established companies with greater product and name recognition and
with substantially greater financial, marketing and distribution
capabilities than ours, as well as against a large number of small
specialty producers. Our competitors include, by way of example, Marka,
Tumi, Crumpler, Fashion Travelwares, Case Closed, Briggs & Riley, and
Samsonite, as well as other well known and respected brands. There can
be no assurance that we can compete successfully in this complex and
changing market. If we cannot successfully compete in this highly
competitive industry, we may never be able to generate revenues
or become profitable. As a result, you may never be able to liquidate
or sell any shares you purchase in this offering.
7. Our business operations could be severely impacted or shut down as a
result of political or economic instability and/or terrorist
activities, which could result in a total loss of any investment you
make in our shares.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The terrorist situation in southern Thailand has worsened, with 112
alleged Islamic militants killed by Thai security forces in late April
and another 87 Muslim protestors dying in custody in late October. The
government has issued statements with concerns that the violence is
expected to intensify in the south after the recent Muslim deaths amid
a violent backlash from militants. Tight control by the government
helps to limit internal interracial tensions, however, any terrorist or
threatened terrorist activities in or near where we manufacture our
products could severely restrict our business operations and reduce
possible revenues. We currently intend to use The Fabric Bag
Group of Khon Kaen, located in northeastern Thailand to manufacture our
bags; however, there can be no guarantee that the violence or terrorist
activities will not expand to areas where we conduct our operations. At
this time, there are no threats or pending threats to the areas where
we conduct our operations or where our manufacturers or suppliers are
located. Any adverse changes to the current economy, political
climate, currency, environment for foreign businesses or security could
result in the closure of our business and loss of revenues, which would
result in a total loss of your investment.
8
8. We are subject to the many risks of doing business internationally,
including but not limited to the difficulty of enforcing liabilities in
foreign jurisdictions.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
We are a Nevada corporation and, as such, are subject to the
jurisdiction of the State of Nevada and the United States courts for
purposes of any lawsuit, action or proceeding by investors herein. An
investor would have the ability to effect service of process in any
action on the company within the United States. In addition, we are
registered as a foreign corporation doing business in Thailand and are
subject to the local laws of Thailand governing investors ability to
bring actions in foreign courts and enforce liabilities against a
foreign private issuer, or any person, based on U.S. federal securities
laws. Generally, a final and conclusive judgment obtained by investors
in U.S. courts would be recognized and enforceable against us in the
Thai courts having jurisdiction without reexamination of the merits of
the case.
Since all of our officers and directors reside outside the United
States, substantially all or a portion of the assets of each are
located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible
for investors to effect service of process within the United States
upon such persons or to enforce against them judgments obtained in
United States courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of
the federal securities laws of the United States.
9. Because we operate in a foreign country, our business is subject to
foreign currency fluctuations and risks which could severely impact our
revenues and results of operations.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
We conduct business in a currency other than the U.S. Dollar, however,
the Thai Baht has traded in a fairly narrow range over the past several
years, so we currently only have limited exposure to exchange rate
fluctuations. At some point in the future, the exchange rate could
fluctuate substantially more which would cause us exposure to exchange
rate risk, as our profits would then be subject to exchange rate
fluctuations. Any broad-based regional currency crisis--possibly caused
by a revaluation of the Chinese Renminbi-could cause a major shift in
the exchange rate, as could a dramatic collapse in the US dollar. If
in the future, there are much wider fluctuations in the exchange rate,
we would attempt to reduce our transaction and translation gains and
losses associated with converting foreign currency into U.S. Dollars by
entering into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain
transaction and translation exposures.
10. Because we do not currently have any patent or trademark
protection for our proposed products, there is no guarantee someone
else will not duplicate our ideas and bring them to market before we do
or make a better product, either of which could severely limit our
proposed sales and revenues.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
We believe our products to be unique; however, we currently have no
patents or trademarks for our products or brand name. As business is
established and operations expand, we may seek such protection;
however, we currently have no plans to do so. Despite efforts to
protect our proprietary rights, such as our brand and product line
9
names, since we have no patent or trademark rights unauthorized persons
may attempt to copy aspects of our business, including our web site
design, products, product information and sales mechanics or to obtain
and use information that we regard as proprietary, such as the
technology used to operate our web site and content. Any encroachment
upon our proprietary information, including the unauthorized use of our
brand name, the use of a similar name by a competing company or a
lawsuit initiated against us for infringement upon another company's
proprietary information or improper use of their trademark, may affect
our ability to create brand name recognition, cause customer confusion
and/or have a detrimental effect on our business. Litigation or
proceedings before the U.S. or International Patent and Trademark
Offices may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual
property rights, to protect our trade secrets and domain name and/or to
determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others.
Any such infringement, litigation or adverse proceeding could result in
substantial costs and diversion of resources and could seriously harm
our business operations and/or results of operations.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS OFFERING:
===================================
11. Buying low-priced penny stocks is very risky and speculative. You
should carefully consider all of the disclosures in this document
before you make a decision to invest in our shares, which are
considered to be "penny stocks".
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
The shares being offered are defined as a penny stock under the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and rules of the Commission. The
Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional
sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell
our securities to persons other than certain accredited investors who
are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or
individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income
exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse), or in
transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer. For transactions
covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a
suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the
purchaser's written agreement prior to the sale. In addition, the
broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock
transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual
bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the
broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain
disclosures required by the Commission. Consequently, the penny stock
rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or
trade our common stock and may also affect your ability to resell any
shares you may purchase in this offering in the public markets.
12. We are selling this offering without an underwriter and may be
unable to sell any shares. Unless we are successful
in selling all of the shares and receiving all of the proceeds from
this offering, we may have to seek alternative financing to implement
our business plans and you would receive a return of your entire
investment.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
This offering is self-underwritten, that is, we are not going to engage
the services of an underwriter to sell the shares; we intend to sell
them through our officers and directors, who will receive no
commissions. We will hold investment meetings and invite our friends,
10
acquaintances and relatives in an effort to sell the shares to them;
however, there is no guarantee that we will be able to sell any of the
shares. In the event we do not sell all of the shares before the
expiration date of the offering, all funds raised will be promptly
returned to the investors, without interest or deduction.
13. Due to the lack of a trading market for our securities, you may
have difficulty selling any shares you purchase in this offering.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
There is presently no demand for our common stock. There is presently
no public market for the shares being offered in this Prospectus.
While we do intend to apply for quotation in the Over-the-Counter
Bulletin Board subsequent to the completion of this offering, assuming
it is successful, we cannot guarantee that our application will be
approved and our stock listed and quoted for sale. If no market is
ever developed for our common stock, it will be difficult for you to
sell any shares you purchase in this offering. In such a case, you may
find that you are unable to achieve any benefit from your investment or
liquidate your shares without considerable delay, if at all. In
addition, if we fail to have our common stock quoted on a public
trading market, your common stock will not have a quantifiable value
and it may be difficult, if not impossible, to ever resell your shares,
resulting in an inability to realize any value from your investment.
14. You will incur immediate and substantial dilution of the price you
pay for your shares.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Our existing stockholder acquired her shares at a cost substantially
less than that which you will pay for the shares you purchase in this
offering. Accordingly, any investment you make in the shares offered
herein will result in the immediate and substantial dilution of the net
tangible book value of those shares from the $.05 you pay for them.
Upon completion of the offering, the net tangible book value of your
shares will be $.026 per share, $.024 less than what you paid for them.
15. We will be holding all proceeds from the offering in a standard
bank checking account until all shares are sold and there is no
guarantee all of the funds will be used as outlined in this prospectus.
If the proceeds are not used as proposed to successfully continue
our business operations, our plans could fail and you could lose any
investment you make in our shares.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
All funds received from the sale of shares in this offering will be
deposited into a standard bank checking account at a local bank until
all shares are sold and the offering is closed, at which time, the
proceeds will be transferred to our business operating account. Since
the funds will not be placed into an escrow, trust or other similar
account, there can be no guarantee that any third party creditor who
might obtain a judgment or lien against us would not satisfy the
judgment or lien by executing on the bank account where the offering
proceeds are being held. In addition, there are no mechanisms in place
to insure the funds received from the sales of shares in this offering
will remain segregated until all shares are sold and/or the offering is
terminated. In any such instance, if all the offering proceeds aren't
available to us on completion of the offering, we may not be able to
successfully implement our business plans and generate revenues, which
would result in a loss of any investment you make in our securities.
11
16. Our officers and directors and their affiliates may continue to
exercise significant control over our operations, which means
as a minority shareholder, you would have no control over
certain matters requiring stockholder approval that could affect
your ability to ever resell any shares you purchase in this offering.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
After the completion of this offering, our executive officers and
directors will own approximately 48% of our common stock. However,
since we only intend to offer the shares to our friends, family members
and acquaintances, we may have substantial influence in how those
shareholders vote on future corporate matters. These stockholders may
have individual interests that are different from other minority
stockholders and if they vote with us on proposed matters, we would be
able to exercise significant control over all matters requiring
stockholder approval, including the election of directors, approval
of significant corporate transactions, a change in control of the
company or other matters that could affect your ability to ever resell
your shares.
USE OF PROCEEDS
===============

(1) We expect our current cash in the bank of $4,995 as of the date of
the filing of this registration statement to pay for most of the costs
of this offering; however, our officers and directors have agreed to
advance any offering expenses we incur prior to completion of the
offering in the event the offering is not completed and funds will need
to be returned to subscribers. We have not entered into any written
agreements with our officers and/or directors and they have agreed to
be reimbursed for any such advances only out of funds as and when they
are available after successful completion of the offering.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
-------------------------------
The offering price of the shares has been determined arbitrarily by us.
The price does not bear any relationship to our assets, book value,
earnings, or other established criteria for valuing a privately held
company. In determining the number of shares to be offered and the
offering price we took into consideration our capital structure and the
amount of money we would need to implement our business plans.
Accordingly, the offering price should not be considered an indication
of the actual value of our securities.
DILUTION OF THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR YOUR SHARES
=============================================
Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the
net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this
offering. Net tangible book value is the amount that results from
subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets.
Dilution arises mainly as a result of our arbitrary determination of
the offering price of the shares being offered. Dilution of the value
of the shares you purchase arises from the discrepancy between the
higher purchase price investors in this offering will pay for their
shares and the lower book value of the shares held by our existing
stockholder.
As of October 31, 2004, the net tangible book value of our shares was
$5,000 or approximately $.005 per share, based upon 1,000,000 shares
outstanding.
Upon completion of this Offering, but without taking into account any
change in the net tangible book value after completion of this Offering
other than that resulting from the sale of the shares and receipt of
the total proceeds of $55,000, less offering expenses of $5,000, for a
total net proceeds to us of $50,000, the net tangible book value of the
2,100,000 shares to be outstanding will be $55,000, or approximately
$.026 per Share. Accordingly, the net tangible book value of the
shares held by our existing stockholder (1,000,000 shares) will be
increased by $.021 per share without any additional investment on their
part. The purchasers of shares in this offering will incur immediate
dilution (a reduction in the net tangible book value per share from the
offering price of $.05 per Share) of $.024 per share. As a result,
after completion of the offering, the net tangible book value of the
shares held by purchasers in this offering would be $.026 per share,
reflecting an immediate reduction in the $.05 price per share they
paid for their shares.
After completion of the offering, the existing stockholder will own
approximately 48% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for
which they will have made a cash investment of $5,000, or $.005 per
Share. Upon completion of the offering, the purchasers of the shares
offered hereby will own approximately 52% of the total number of shares
then outstanding, for which they will have made a cash investment of
$55,000, or $.05 per Share.
The following table illustrates the per share dilution to the new
investors and does not give any effect to the results of any operations
subsequent to October 31, 2004:

Public Offering Price per Share $ .05
Net Tangible Book Value Prior to this Offering $ .005
Net Tangible Book Value After Offering $ .026
Immediate Dilution per Share to New Investors $ .024

purchased, the amount and percentage of consideration paid and the

this offering:

Lam Liang Corp. owns 99.94% (9,994 shares) of our subsidiary, Maha
San Lam Liang Co. Ltd., a privately owned Thai corporation. Pursuant
to the rules of the Thai Civil and Commercial Code, Section 1097, any
seven or more persons may, by subscribing their names to a memorandum
and otherwise complying with the provisions of the Code, form a limited

19
acquaintances of Dr. Chayawatana and who each own .01% or 1 share
of the 10,000 total shares issued and outstanding.
Future Sales by Existing Stockholder
- -------------------------------------
A total of 1,000,000 shares have been issued to our existing
stockholder, who is an officer and director, and are restricted
securities, as that term is defined in Rule 144 of the Rules and
Regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Act. Under Rule 144, such
shares can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and certain
restrictions on the manner of sale, commencing one year after their
acquisition. Any sale of shares held by the existing stockholder (after
applicable restrictions expire) and/or the sale of shares purchased in
this offering (which would be immediately resalable after the
offering), may have a depressive effect on the price of our common
stock in any market that may develop, of which there can be no
assurance.
Our existing stockholder does not have any existing plans to sell her
shares at any time after this offering is complete.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
=========================
Common Stock
- ------------
Our authorized capital stock consists of 75,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $.001 per share. The holders of our common stock (i)
have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available
therefor, when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors; (ii) are
entitled to share in all of our assets available for distribution to
holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of our affairs; (iii) do not have preemptive, subscription or
conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund
provisions or rights; and (iv) are entitled to one non-cumulative vote
per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote.
Non-cumulative Voting
- ---------------------
Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting
rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the
outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all
of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in such event,
the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of
our directors. After this offering is completed, the present
stockholder will own approximately 48% of our outstanding shares and
the purchasers in this offering will own 52%.
Cash Dividends
- --------------
As of the date of this Prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends
to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at
the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our
earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our
general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our
present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable
future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business
operations.
20
INDEMNIFICATION
===============
Pursuant to certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to
any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his/her position, if
he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably believed
to be in our best interest. In certain cases, we may advance expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent that the
officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding
as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him/her
against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect
to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses
actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if
the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The
indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted
by the laws of the State of Nevada.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities,
other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our
directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors,
officers, or controlling person sin connection with the securities
being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESS
---------------------------
General Information
- -------------------
Lam Liang Corp. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 12,
2004. We were formed to design, produce and sell fashionable computer
laptop cases for women. In November, 2004, we acquired 99.94% ownership
in a privately-held company, registered under the laws of Thailand
under the name of Maha San Lam Liang Co. Ltd. The company was
formed and registered in Thailand on November 5, 2004 by Dr. Anchana
Chayawatana and she is the sole officer and director of the company.
The company was formed to conduct our business operations in Thailand
and on November 19, 2004, Dr. Anchana Chayawatana assigned all of her
right, title and interest in and to the corporation, totaling 99.94% to
us in exchange for $1,300 in cash, the cost of the Thai incorporation
fees.
We are still in the development stage; have limited business
operations; and have generated no revenues. In October 2004, we were
issued an opinion by our auditors that raises substantial doubt about
our ability to continue as a going concern based on our current
financial position.
21
We are a Nevada corporation and, as such, are subject to the
jurisdiction of the State of Nevada and the United States courts for
purposes of any lawsuit, action or proceeding by investors herein. An
investor would have the ability to effect service of process in any
action on our company within the United States. In addition, we are
indirectly registered as a foreign corporation, through our majority
owned subsidiary, doing business in Thailand and are subject to the
local laws of Thailand governing investors ability to bring actions in
foreign courts and enforcing liabilities against a foreign private
issuers, or any person, pursuant to U.S. and Thai securities laws.
Generally, a final and conclusive judgment obtained by investors in
U.S. courts would be recognized and enforceable against us in the Thai
courts having jurisdiction without reexamination of the merits of the
case.
Since all of our officers and directors reside outside the United
States, substantially all or a portion of the assets of each are
located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible
for investors to effect service of process within the United States
upon such persons or to enforce against them judgments obtained in
United States courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of
the federal securities laws of the United States. We have been advised
that, based on the political climate in Thailand, there is doubt as to
the enforceability of judgments obtained in U.S. Courts.
Principal Products and Markets
- ------------------------------
Our principal products will be fashion laptop computer bags
that are currently being designed. We plan to manufacture, market,
distribute and sell the products through our subsidiary, Maha San Lam
Liang Co. Ltd., under the Lam Liang brand name. We plan to initially
sell our bags in Thailand and through an online internet store. We
intend to sell exclusively women's styles. Lam Liang brand bags will
be made with high quality materials from Thailand and will be hand
finished.
Our initial product line is being designed by our President, Dr.
Anchana Chayawatana, with assistance from a personal friend of hers
who is a designer, Yingsak Petchsut. We have no written agreements with
Mr. Petchsut, nor any formal agreement to pay him for his services or
assistance. Informally, Dr. Chayawatana has agreed to pay him $250 US
for each design that we use and send to production.
Although we will operate in a highly competitive market, we are
hopeful we will be able to successfully compete in the industry with
our proposed high quality bags and designs geared specifically to
fashion conscious female professionals.
Lam Liang brand bag designs will be based on both classic styles and
current trends. We have established these trends and styles
based on research we have performed by watching the cable television
Fashion Channel, which covers the latest fashion tends and designs from
around the world that are appearing in retail stores for sale to the
public. In addition, we have researched several fashion magazines, such
as Vogue, which illustrates upcoming fashion trends, colors and
22
patterns. We intend to design them so they will be stylish and
elegant, yet versatile enough to be functional for all a professional
women's needs. Our proposed bag designs will be oversized,
yet appear sleek so that they can carry a woman's daily essentials,
together with her computer laptop without looking like a laptop
computer bag. Our bags are currently being designed based on four main
concepts: colors and patterns, quality of materials and construction,
functionality and ease of use, and finally, comfort.
Our bags are being designed using the latest colors and patterns
for the current and upcoming seasons, in an effort to make them
attractive and appealing to women seeking to be fashionable and
stylish in their accessorizing. We intend to line our
bags with high quality light colored solids or patterns to make it
easier to find items inside quickly. We intend to use
durable materials like canvas for our outer shell, so our proposed
bags will withstand wear and tear and endure the added weight of a
laptop computer. Canvas is lightweight, yet strong, stain and water
resistant and has been known to be long lasting. We intend to use a
variety of different leathers for the handles and trim and a variety of
magnetic fasteners, zippers and clasps for closures. We don't believe
the materials we use will differ from those being used by our proposed
competitors; however, we intend to hand finish and top-stitch many of
our proposed bags to create unique and different designs than are
currently seen in the market today. As labor costs are very low in
Thailand, hand finishing will be relatively inexpensive and will not
impact our proposed costs of production in any substantial way.
We intend to design a removable compartment for a computer
laptop so that the computer can be carried separately. That compartment
will be made from the same high quality materials, but will also be
padded to ensure the security of the laptop computer during transit.
Our bags will contain many separate compartments so that the contents
of the bag will be neatly organized and easily accessible. Depending
on the model, there may be separate compartments for the laptop
computer, cosmetics, a cellular phone, a personal daily assistant
(PDA), keys, a pen, and travel documents or identification cards and
papers.
Our bags are being designed ergonomically so that the shape of
the bag will flow with a woman's movements. We intend to use
comfortable yet durable fabrics so that the feel of the bag is softer
against the body. Our bags are being designed so that the
shoulder straps will distribute the weight over a greater area making
it less noticeable and causing less physical stress. Our ergonomic
designs will be accomplished through testing we intend to do ourselves.
We intend to design our shoulder straps to be wider than those
currently offered to allow a more secure and comfortable weight
distribution on the shoulders. We also intend to have our officers and
directors use and test each prototype bag before it is put into
production to ensure it meets the "comfort" level we are striving for.
We plan to update our product offerings twice a year while retaining
our top selling models as well. We intend to update our product line
based on the fall/winter and spring/summer fashion seasons to
keep up with the latest trends and styles in fashion.
bags market.
23
We are confident in the quality of our proposed products and
will offer a one year warranty on parts and labor with all of our bags.
Customers who buy from a retailer will return their bag to where they
purchased it and the retailer will then return it to us to either be
repaired or replaced. Customers who buy from our online store will be
required to cover shipping charges to send it back to us and have it
returned to them.
Price Range of Products
- -----------------------
We intend to initially price our proposed products between
$150-$250 US. This price is comparable to computer bags and accessories
which are currently available in the market. Most of the bags currently
on the market are black or brown leather, suede or vinyl and are
designed only for computer or work products. In local research we
conducted among our friends and acquaintances, our proposed
bags were well received at our proposed prices.
Marketing and Distribution
- ---------------------------
We initially plan to market and distribute our proposed
Lam Liang brand bags in Thailand and through an online internet store.
We initially plan to wholesale our proposed bags to trend-
conscious stores, high-end boutiques and department stores in Thailand.
Once we have our initial sample line of products developed, we
intend to have Anongnat Chansangachom, one of our directors,
directly contact and market our proposed products to boutique shops
and department stores in Thailand. In approximately April 2005,
we intend to hire a General Manager to oversee our business
operations and to establish an advertising campaign in local magazines.
In addition, we will attempt to have newspaper articles written about
our products once we are in production and have samples to photograph
and promote.
We intend to promote our website through local print advertising, as
well as through regional internet marketing; however, we have not yet
contracted any internet marketing firms at this time to implement any
such campaign. We are currently finishing the design of our proposed
initial products. Once we have completed our ergonomic testing and,
if necessary, redesigned the initial product line, we will have several
of each produced for use in our marketing efforts. Our officers and
directors will also each use the bags in their day-to-day business and
travel to promote and market our brand name and proposed products.
We are also planning to attend and exhibit our proposed products at the
Bangkok International Gift and Houseware Fair (BIG) in April and
October 2005.
Once we start to become better known and our brand name becomes
recognizable, we hope to be able to expand our sales into the United
States and internationally by attending industry and trade shows and by
entering into sales agency or distribution agreements with independent
agents, each of whom would be granted the exclusive right to market and
sell Lam Liang brand bags in a specific territory.

Website Design and Development
- -----------------------------
Dr. Chayawatana, our President, is currently designing our website
with the assistance of some personal friends who are web
designers and who have offered to program and design the site as a
personal favor at no cost to us. The website will be programmed and
hosted only in English to service all international markets. Even
though we initially intend for our first site to be used by
consumers in Thailand, due to the target audience of professional
women, we feel our prospective customers will be fluent in English, as
are most Thai business women, so we don't feel there is a need to
program the site in any other languages.
We have registered the domain name lamliang.com and engaged the
services of godaddy.com to register our domain name and host our
website. There will be no charge for the web hosting of
www.lamliang.com while it is under construction. Once we complete the
design and publish our website, we will pay godaddy.com an annual fee
of approximately $133 for web hosting and the shopping cart software we
will require to accommodate secure online sales.
Once we have completed the design of several bags for our initial
inventory, we intend to photograph them for publication and sale on our
website.
Initially, we intend to fulfill all internet customer orders
from our office in Bangkok, Thailand. We will pack the items and
deliver them via Thailand Parcel Post Service or other shipping company
for distribution to consumers. We are committed to shipping accurate
orders, efficiently and in a timely manner. Based on information
we received from the staff at Thailand Post, the estimated
delivery time is currently three to five business days from the date of
the receipt of order for domestic orders and ten to fifteen business
days for international orders. If we receive a substantial order, the
manufacturing and delivery time could be longer and we would contact
the customer to discuss the order and approximate delivery date and
method. We will charge each customer in advance for the shipping costs
associated with the order. Thailand Post has advised that the costs
for domestic delivery will be approximately $8 for orders shipped
within Asia; approximately $10 for orders shipped to Europe; and
approximately $12 for orders shipped to North America. These estimates
are only approximate costs based on approximate weight, which is
currently unknown until our proposed products are manufactured and
weighed for actual weight of each. In addition, the estimates are
based on one bag per order, so orders with multiple bags would incur
greater shipping charges.
Customer Service
- ----------------
The typical shopping experience at our online store will begin with the
search for products that meet specific needs, including the ordering
process and will extend through product delivery and post-purchase
support. We believe that the ability to accurately fulfill orders, ship
products quickly to a customer's door and efficiently handle customer
inquiries is as important to customer satisfaction as a superior
product selection. We believe that a high level of customer service
and support is critical to retaining and expanding a reliable, repeat
25
customer base and for establishing and maintaining a trusted brand
name. Accordingly, while we currently do not have the financial
resources, or the need to employ any customer service personnel, we do
intend to develop a stringent customer service policy. Once we commence
sales, management will be available by phone or via e-mail, from 9:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m., local Bangkok time, Monday through Friday, and
during non-business hours via voicemail. The General Manager whom we
will be hiring in April to oversee our operations and manage our
offices will be responsible for all customer service. We will provide
order and shipping confirmations (with tracking numbers) or
notifications of out-of-stock items to customers via email. We are
dedicated to providing superior customer satisfaction to secure repeat
customers.
Money-Back Guarantee
- --------------------
As an incentive to purchase and try our proposed bags, we will
unconditionally guarantee all unused or defective merchandise for a
period of 7 days from the receipt of shipment. If a customer is not
completely satisfied with a purchase, he/she may return any unused or
defective merchandise for a prompt refund. In addition, as a further
purchase incentive, we will pay all shipping and handling charges on
return merchandise.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
- -----------------------------------------
We currently plan to purchase all of our materials including fabric,
thread, zippers and fasteners from both Watanaporn Panich and World
Leather Center Co. Ltd., both located in Bangkok, Thailand. We will
choose the materials we want to use and then have our manufacturer
purchase the materials on our behalf and bill us together with their
manufacturing costs, a customary business practice in Thailand. We do
not currently have any long-term agreements in place for the supply of
our fabric, thread or other raw materials, but we have chosen some
materials for our initial sample inventory. Although we plan to choose
only high quality materials in the manufacture of our proposed
bags, they are readily available from a large number of suppliers
in Thailand and abroad. We will continually source new materials from
other suppliers who may produce different materials, materials of
higher quality or similar materials that are lower priced.
Manufacturing
- -------------
We plan to outsource all of our manufacturing to a third party
Currently, we plan to use the services of one contract manufacturer,
Fabric Bag Group of Khon Kaen, Thailand, to make our proposed
products ; however, once we have completed a few designs, we intend
to engage one or two local manufacturers to bid on and make our
samples. At that time, we will decide whose services we will engage and
will enter into a written agreement with that party to manufacture our
products. We have been in preliminary discussions with Fabric Bag Group
regarding the production, whereby they would purchase the fabric and
sew and finish our products to our design and other specifications.
This will enable us to manufacture our bags without requiring a large
amount of working capital. We will inspect the fabrics and the finished
goods prior to shipping them as part of our quality control program. We
plan to continue to outsource all of our production indefinitely.
26
Further, we recognize that, as we grow, we will require additional
contractors to manufacturing our bags and are currently seeking
additional manufacturing sources to produce samples for us.
Competition
- -----------
The fashion industry is intensely competitive and fragmented. We will
compete against other small companies like ours, as well as large
companies that have a similar business and large marketing companies,
importers and distributors that sell products similar to or competitive
with our proposed product line . Examples of companies with
whom we compete include Marka, Tumi, Crumpler, Fashion Travelwares,
Case Closed, Briggs & Riley and Samsonite. We believe Marka
will be our main competitor, as they are the only company we have found
that exclusively makes laptop computer bags for the fashion conscious
woman that demands style, as well as functionality. They, too, have
only recently commenced operations so they do not, as of yet, have a
foothold into this market niche. We believe the competition in the
industry in which we intend to do business will be based primarily on
style, with price a secondary consideration. We feel that our target
market will be less price sensitive than they will be fashion conscious
since we will be targeting working professional women. Our opinions
are based solely on responses we have received from female friends,
business and professional acquaintances and associates of our officers
and directors whom we polled about the possible purchase of our
proposed products.
We believe that our competitive strengths will consist of the detailing
of the design, the quality of the materials and most importantly, the
uniqueness of our proposed products. Although there are many
companies that produce laptop computer bags, most of their products are
geared towards functionality and not fashionable design. While
conducting our research we were unable to find many products geared
directly to our potential target market, but could only find
one company that specialized in producing fashionable laptop computer
bags for women. Generally speaking, the good quality laptop computer
bags market, which is where we plan to sell our proposed
products, ranges from $99 to $465 and designer label bags such as
Gucci, Prada or Louis Vuitton range from $590 to $2,130. Our main
competitor, Marka, has its bags priced in the $355 to $465 range. We
believe that our proposed price range of $150 to $250 will
provide superior value for the design and quality of of our
proposed Lam Liang brand bags.
Patents and Trademarks
- ----------------------
We currently have no patents or trademarks for our proposed products
or brand name; however, as business is established and
operations expand, we may seek such protection.
Government and Industry Regulation
- ----------------------------------
We do not require any government approval for the manufacture or
distribution of any of our intended products in Thailand , as we
will be engaging the services of a licensed manufacturing company to
make our proposed products. If we are successful in our local
marketing and sales efforts and decide to expand internationally,
27
we will need to apply for export licenses. An export license is
a relatively simple process in Thailand and only takes a few days to
process at a cost of approximately $125. We currently do not intend to
apply for an export license until approximately September 2005 when we
expect our website and product line to be complete and we have
established local sales in Thailand and our brand name.
We are subject to regulation by the World Trade Organization.
Generally, these international trade agreements benefit our business
rather than burden it because they tend to reduce trade quotas, duties,
taxes and similar impositions. However, these trade agreements may
also impose restrictions that could have an adverse impact on our
business, by limiting the countries where we might market and sell our
products. Also, regulations in individual countries that we plan to
export our products to could always adversely change for us by imposing
or increasing quotas, duties and taxes, limiting the amount of products
we can export to their country or making our goods less competitive
compared to products exported from other countries.
Once we start to export our bags we will also have to ensure that we
comply with labeling and advertising regulations imposed by each
country that we intend to export our products to. Because we do
not intend to implement an export program until September 2005 or
until we have established local sales and begun generating revenues,
we have not yet researched the process and costs of compliance with any
such regulations.
Research and Development Activities
- ------------------------------------
Our officers and directors have devoted substantial time researching
competitive products and materials and designing our proposed bags;
however, we have not spent any funds on research and development
activities to date. We do not currently have a formal research and
development program, but we plan to continue to develop new products
every six months for the fall/winter and spring/summer fashion seasons.
Employees and Employment Agreements
- -----------------------------------
We currently have three employees, all of which are our executive
officers, namely, Dr. Anchana Chayawatana, Prapaipan Chayawatana and
Anongnat Chansangachom. Prapaipan Chayawatana devotes full time to our
business and currently is responsible for sourcing suppliers for
materials and contract manufacturers to produce our bags. Dr. Anchana
Chayawatana devotes part time or approximately 15-20 hours a week on
company organization, laying out future marketing and sales plans and
designing our products. Anongnat Chansangachom devotes part time or
approximately 5 hours per week to administration and will be involved
in marketing and sales in the future.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
=========================================================
We have generated no revenues since inception and have incurred no
expenses at October 31, 2004, our fiscal year end.
The following table provides selected financial data about our company
for the period from the date of incorporation through October 31, 2004.
For detailed financial information, see the audited financial
statements included in this prospectus.
28
Balance Sheet Data: 10/31/04
------------------------- -------------
Cash $ 4,995
Total assets $ 4,995
Total liabilities $ 0
Stockholders' equity $ 4,995
We expect our current cash in the bank, plus revenues we expect to
generate from sales of our proposed products, as well as the monies we
will receive assuming completion of this offering, to satisfy our cash
requirements for at least the next 12 months.
Other than the shares offered by this prospectus, no other source of
capital has been has been identified or sought.
To date, we have never had any discussions with any possible
acquisition candidate nor have we any intention of doing so.
Plan of Operation
- -----------------
Proposed Milestones to Implement Business Operations:
- -----------------------------------------------------
The following criteria for the milestones are based on estimates
derived from research and marketing data accumulated by our directors.
They are estimates only. The number of employees, number of initial
bags we plan to have manufactured for our inventory and the other
projected milestones are approximations only and subject to adjustment
based on costs and needs.
January/February 2005:
- ----------------------
We will produce the design, choose the materials and have our
contracted manufacturer make a prototype of our first model. We will
then make whatever changes are necessary to the prototype, as well as
any improvements to our bag and create a final prototype of our first
model which we will then have our contracted manufacturer produce for
us. We will use this design as our first model to put into production
once this offering is complete and the funding is in place. Dr.
Anchana Chayawatana will produce the design in conjunction with our
designer, Yingsak Petchsut. The cost for each design we take to
production will be $250 based on a verbal agreement with Mr. Petchsut.
We estimate the cost of production of the first prototype in two
different sizes will be approximately $100.
February/March 2005:
- -------------------
We will produce the design, choose the materials and have our
contracted manufacturer make a prototype of our second model. We will
then make whatever changes are necessary as well as any improvements to
our bag and create a final prototype for this model which we will then
have our contracted manufacturer produce for us. We will use this
design as our second model to put into production. Our first line of
bags will include 2 different models in 2 different sizes. Each size
will be designed to accommodate either a 12 inch or 15 inch laptop
computer. Dr. Anchana Whayawatana will produce the second design in
conjunction with our designer, Yingsak petchsut. The cost for the
design used will be $250 and we estimate the cost of production for the
second prototype in two different sizes will be approximately $100.
29
April 2005:
- ----------
We will hire a General Manager who will be responsible for many aspects
of our operation, from administration to sales. We will also rent
office space to operate out of. We will produce our first batch of
bags with a total of 200 bags, 50 bags for each size of each model.
These bags will be for samples and to fulfill small orders to local
stores and for internet sales. We will host a booth at the Bangkok
International Gift and Houseware Fair (BIG) held at Impact Arena in
Bangkok, Thaiand from April 19 to April 24. All of our officers
and our General Manager will be present at the trade show at
various times. The cost of hosting a booth at this show is
approximately $2,000. We will also start an advertising campaign
in local magazines and will attempt to have some articles written on
our products through personal connections of Dr. Chayawatana. We have
budgeted $3,500 for a local advertising campaign at this time. We also
plan to launch our website at www.lamliang.com. Dr. Chayawatana will
be responsible for overseeing the website launch and there is no cost
associated with the development, which is being conducted by Dr.
Chayawatana with the assistance of some of her personal friends who are
web developers at no cost to us. We intend to begin selling products
and generating revenues during this phase. We plan to pay our
General Manager 15,000 baht per month, or approximately $400 US per
month. This is comparable to similar positions in Thailand, as the
minimum wage earner makes approximately 4,000 baht per month, or
$100 US per month.
May 2005:
- ---------
We will aggressively start an ongoing sales campaign to wholesale our
bags targeting trendy and fashionable upper class stores and department
stores. Anongnat Chansangachom and our General Manager will
establish our sales campaigns and will perform all direct sales. We
currently estimate there will be no costs involved to contact and visit
local Thai boutiques and retail department stores, other than
transportation and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Anongnat
Chansangachom and our General Manager.
August/September 2005:
- ---------------------
We will design, test and produce our fall/winter line of bags. We plan
to have 3 different styles to choose from that will come in 2 different
sizes, each to accommodate both 12 inch and 15 inch model laptop
computers. Dr. Anchana Chayawatana will produce the designs in
conjunction with our designer, Yingsak Petchsut. We estimate the costs
for the designs will be $750, based on 3 styles at $250 each to Mr.
Petchsut. We estimate the cost to produce the new prototypes will be
less than $300. During this phase, we also intend to apply for our
export license from the Thai government. The current cost of the export
license is $125.
October 2005:
- ------------
We will host a booth at the Bangkok International Gift and Houseware
Fair (BIG) held at Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand from October 17
to October 22. We will begin exporting our products starting with
the launch of our fall/winter line and will seek companies to export to
30
or act as distributors or representatives for our products. We will
look for exposure for our export sales at the BIG Fair. All of our
officers and our General Manager will be present at the trade show at
various times. The cost of hosting a booth at this trade show is
approximately $2,000.
November 2005:
- -------------
We hope to participate in the Elle Fashion Week held in Bangkok,
Thailand either by some form of sponsorship or by displaying our
product line at one of the events held during the Week. Dr.
Chayawatana and our General Manager will make arrangements for the
show. The cost is unknown at this time, so we are not yet sure if
we will be able to participate.
Dr. Chayawatana, an officer and director, intends to advance funds
to the Company at no interest on an as needed basis to complete the
milestones, until such time as we have raised the funds and closed the
offering, or revenues are generated through sales.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
=======================
We do not currently own any property. We are currently operating out
of the premises of our President on a rent free basis while we are in
the organizational stage. We have reserved an office and are
currently in the process of negotiating and signing the lease with the
lease term to commence March 1, 2005 for a term of one year, with a
renewal option for a further one year at the end of the term. The
office is located at Unico House (Unit 12D/1) 12th Floor, 29/1 Soi
Langsuan, Ploenchit Road, Bangkok 10330 Thailand. The office space
consists of approximately 430 sq. ft. and consists of two rooms, one of
which is an office and the other which we will use as a reception area
and showroom for our bags. The monthly rent is approximately $280 US
not including utilities.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
==============================================
On October 12, 2004, 1,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to
Alan Teegardin, an officer and director, in exchange for $5,000, or
$.005 per share. On November 19, 2004 Alan Teegardin transferred
1,000,000 shares to Dr. Anchana Chayawatana an officer and director, in
exchange for the $5,000 or $.005 per share that he paid for the shares
on October 12, 2004. In addition, Mr. Teegardin resigned as an officer
and director of our company on November 19, 2004.
Dr. Anchana Chayawatana, an officer and director, is the daughter of
Prapaipan Chayawatana an officer and director. Dr. Anchana
Chayawatana, Prapaipan Chayawatana and Anongnat Chansangachom are the
only officers, directors, promoters and affiliates of our company and
Dr. Anchana Chayawatana is the only officer and director of our
subsidiary.
31
MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
========================================================
No public market currently exists for shares of our common stock.
Following completion of this offering, we intend to contact an
authorized OTCBB market maker to sponsor an application to have our
common stock listed for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin
Board; however, we have not yet made or attempted to establish any such
contact.
Penny Stock Rules
- -----------------
The Securities and Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that
regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in
penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price
of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain
national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided
that current price and volume information with respect to transactions
in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
A purchaser is purchasing penny stock which limits the ability to sell
the stock. The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock
under the Securities and Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny
stocks for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock
makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a
secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to
liquidate his/her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the
purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be
subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Securities and Exchange
Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some
broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction
in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission,
which:
- - contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market
for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
- - contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the
customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer
with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of
the Securities Act of 1934, as amended;
- - contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market,
including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the
significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
- - contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary
actions;
- - defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the
conduct of trading penny stocks; and
- - contains such other information and is in such form (including
language, type, size and format) as the Securities and Exchange
Commission shall require by rule or regulation;
32
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction
in a penny stock, to the customer:
- - the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
- - the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the
transaction;
- - the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or
other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of
the market for such stock; and
- - monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny
stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction
in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-
dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock
is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's
written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a
written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed
and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure
requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in
the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these
penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling
their securities.
Regulation M
- ------------
Our officers and directors, who will offer and sell the Shares, are
aware that they are required to comply with the provisions of
Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the officers
and directors, sales agents, any broker-dealer or other person who
participate in the distribution of shares in this offering from bidding
for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or
purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until
the entire distribution is complete.
As an exception to these rules, an underwriter may engage in
transactions effected in accordance with Regulation M that are intended
to stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common
stock. The underwriter may engage in over-allotment sales, syndicate
covering transactions, stabilizing transactions and penalty bids in
accordance with Regulation M. Over-allotments occur when an underwriter
sells more shares than it purchases in an offering. In order to cover
the resulting short position, the underwriter may exercise the over-
allotment option described above. Additionally, an underwriter may
engage in syndicate covering transactions. Syndicate covering
transactions are bids for or purchases of stock on the open market
by the underwriter in order to reduce a short position incurred
by the underwriter on behalf of the underwriting syndicate. There is no
contractual limit on the size of any syndicate covering transaction.
Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made by an
underwriter for the purpose of preventing or slowing a decline in the
market price of our securities while the offering is in progress. A
penalty bid is an arrangement permitting the underwriter to reclaim the
33
selling concession that would otherwise to an underwriter if the
common stock originally sold by the underwriter was later repurchased
by the underwriter and therefore was not effectively sold to the public
by such underwriter.
We have not and do not intend to engage the services of an underwriter
in connection with the offer and sale of the shares in this offering.
In general, the purchase of a security to stabilize or to reduce a
short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than
it might otherwise be. Sales of securities by us or even the potential
of these sales could have a negative effect on the market price of the
shares of common stock offered hereby.

We are subject to certain reporting requirements and will furnish
annual financial reports to our stockholders, certified by our
independent accountants, and will furnish unaudited quarterly financial
reports in our quarterly reports filed electronically with the SEC. All
reports and information filed by us can be found at the SEC website,
www.sec.gov.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
We have audited the balance sheet of Lam Liang Corp. (a development
stage company) as at October 31, 2004 and the statements of operations,
cash flows, and stockholders' equity for the period from October 12,
2004 (date of inception) to October 31, 2004. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit
to obtain reasonable assurance 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 valuating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company as at October
31, 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
period from October 12, 2004 (date of inception) to October 31, 2004 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has not
attained profitable operations and is dependent upon obtaining adequate
financing to fulfill its business activities. These factors raise
substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also
discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

LAM LIANG CORP.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2004
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------------------------
Lam Liang Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of
Nevada, United States of America, on October 12, 2004 under the Nevada
Revised Statutes, Chapter 78, Private Companies. The Company's office
is located in Bangkok, Thailand. The Company is in its development
stage and to date its activities have been limited to initial
organization and capital formation. These financial statements have
been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has working capital
of $4,995, and has accumulated a deficit of $0 since inception. Its
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of
the Company to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to
obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its
liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.
The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at
this time. These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will
be able to continue as a going concern. Management plans to continue to
provide for the Company's capital needs during the year by the issuance
of common stock and related party advances. These financial statements
do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of
assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States of America. Because a precise determination of many assets and
liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of
financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of
estimates which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results
may vary from these estimates.
The financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly
prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the
framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
a) Development Stage Company
The Company complies with the Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 7 and the Securities and Exchange Commission Act
Guide 7 for its characterization of the Company as development stage.
The Company is devoting substantially all of its present efforts to
establish a new business and none of its planned principal operations
have commenced.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
- ---------------------------------------------
b) Foreign Currency Translation
The Company's functional currency is in Thai baht as substantially all
of the Company's operations are in Thailand. The Company used the
United States dollar as its reporting currency for consistency with
registrants of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in
accordance with the SFAS No. 52 - "Foreign Currency Translation".
Assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated
at the exchange rate in effect at the period end and capital accounts
are translated at historical rates. Income statement accounts are
translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the
period. Translation adjustments from the use of different exchange
rates from period to period are included in the comprehensive income
account in stockholder's equity, if applicable. Transactions undertaken
in currencies other than the functional currency of the entity are
translated using the exchange rate in effect as of the transaction
rate. Any exchange gains and losses are included in other items on the
statement of operations.
c) Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The Company reports basic loss per share in accordance with SFAS No.
128 - "Earnings Per Share". Basic loss per share is computed using the
weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of
common and potentially dilutive common stock outstanding during the
period. As the Company generated net losses in the period presented,
the basic and diluted loss per share is the same, as any exercise
of options or warrants would be anti-dilutive.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
- ---------------------------------------------
d) Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for
income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 - "Accounting for Income
Taxes". This standard requires the use of an asset and liability
approach for financial accounting and reporting on income taxes. If it
is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax
asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
e) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments consisting of
cash, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their
carrying value due to the short term maturity of such instruments.
Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is
not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising
from these financial instruments.
f) New Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet
effective accounting standards if currently adopted, could have a
material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
g) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with Staff Accounting
Bulletin 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101).
The Company designs, outsources manufacturing and sells its own line of
laptop computer bags. Revenue from such product sales is recognized
when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has
occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is
probable. At this time the earnings process is complete and the risks
and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer, which is
generally when the goods are shipped and all significant obligations of
the Company have been satisfied.

PART II - INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
------------------------------------------------
Item 24. Indemnification of directors and officers.
Pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the
corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a
party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position,
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be
in our best interest. In certain cases, we may advance expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent that the
officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding
as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him
against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect
to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses
actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if
the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The
indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by
the laws of the State of Nevada.
As regards indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors or officers
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we are informed that, in the
opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Item 25. Other expenses of issuance and distribution.
Expenses incurred or (expected) relating to this Prospectus and
distribution are as follows:
Legal $ 3,500
Accounting 1,000
Transfer Agent fees 400
Printing of Prospectus 100

TOTAL $ 5,000
Item 26. Recent sales of unregistered securities. Set forth below
is information regarding the issuance and sales of securities without
registration since inception. No such sales involved the use of an
underwriter; no advertising or public solicitation was involved; the
securities bear a restrictive legend; and no commissions were paid in
connection with the sale of any securities.
On October 12, 2004, 1,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to
Alan Teegardin, an officer, director and principal shareholder,
as founders' shares, in exchange for $5,000, or $.005 per share.
These securities were issued in reliance upon the exemption contained
in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities were
issued to a promoter of the company, bear a restrictive legend and were
issued to a an officer/director of the company.
45
On November 19, 2004, in a private sale transaction, Alan Teegardin
sold all 1,000,000 shares to Dr. Anchana Chayawatana an officer and
director, in exchange for the $5,000 or $.005 per share that he paid
for the shares on October 12, 2004. This transaction was conducted
in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided under Section
4(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, based upon the fact that the sale
was made by a person other an issuer, underwriter or dealer.

Item 28. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement
to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts which, individually or
together, represent a fundamental change in the information in
the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end
of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the
form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;
46
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on
the plan of distribution.
1. For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the
securities offered, and the offering of such securities at that
time to be the initial bona fide offering.
2. File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration
any of the securities registered which remain unsold at the end
of the offering.
(d) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the
purchasers in this offering, certificates in such denominations and
registered in such names as required to permit prompt delivery to each
purchaser.
(e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act,
and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling of the small
business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the small
business issuer will, unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has
been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
