Company Press Release
Pan Kai Development USA Inc. Elects New Vice-Chairman After Receiving Billion-Dollar Environmental Contract
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 22, 1999--The Board of Directors of Pan Kai Development (USA) Monday elected Miss Jou Yu-Pyng as the new Vice-Chairman of the board. Miss Jou Yu-Pyng comes to Pan Kai Development (USA), Inc. from Chuan-I Enterprise Co., Ltd. where she is a majority shareholder.

Pan Kai Development (USA) (OTC BB: PKDV - news) has received a purchase order (purchase order No. 5168) from Chuan-I Enterprise Co., Ltd. for 300,000 ''Air/Combustion Enhancer Kits'' (Pollution Prevention Device) at NT$120,000 (approx. $3,750 U.S.) per unit, for a total of NT$36 billion (approx. $1.125 billion U.S.).

The ''Air/Combustion Enhancer Kit'' (Patent No. Ti 056658 Hao -- issued by Republic of China) has been found to reduce emissions by up to 90% in test diesel engines while increasing both fuel efficiency and engine power. After approval of the tests, the use of this device has been mandated by the Ministry of Environment of Taiwan, and will be subsidized by the state. There are currently more than 500,000 commercial and industrial diesel engines in use in Taiwan.

Pan Kai Development (USA) is currently working with a bank to obtain the necessary funding to commence this manufacturing job. This is a Taiwanese bank, which also has a branch in the United States, thus enabling it to move funds between Taiwan and the United States.

Negotiations are under way to get this bank to fund the entire project through a letter of credit. Should the negotiations be successful, the repayment of these funds to the bank would be made directly by the Taiwanese Ministry of Environment upon completion and delivery of each batch.

More information about this project can be found at the company's Web site at www.pankai.com
