China /Energy: US Company, Largo Vista Group, to Exercise LPG option  NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Dec 10, 2001 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Largo Vista  Group Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: LGOV) announced today the decision to exercise  their option with Zunyi Commercial Transportation Petroleum & LPG Co. Ltd., a  subsidiary of Petro China, located in the Guizhou Province. (Pop. 30 million)  Largo Vista has been operating the Zunyi depot since January 2001 under a 5 year  lease option to purchase the operation which includes storage tanks, filling  workshop, railway platform including pipelines, office facilities and  dormitories.  Mr. Li Chuming, Largo Vista's General Manager of Chinese operations stated:  "After 11 months of hands on LPG market research and development the decision  was made to exercise our option to purchase the Zunyi depot. We have identified  8 stages of growth through the next four quarters which leads to full LPG market  control in the region. Our decision to first operate the Zunyi LPG depot under a  lease agreement before purchasing it is a direct result of our experiences we  gained with our first depot in Kunming, Yunnan Province where profitability with  our state-owned competitors was not their primary goal. Under an option  agreement we are allowed hands on development to test real market conditions in  the region before the purchase. Another asset of the option is the purchase of  the inspection station. The only authorized inspection station in the region for  bottle and valve testing which is required by law for licensed LPG operations,  it's a pure cash business."
