(COMTEX) B: US INTERNET GAMING CO TARGETS SE ASIA FROM AUSTRALIA
B: US INTERNET GAMING CO TARGETS SE ASIA FROM AUSTRALIA

MELBOURNE, Mar 08, 1999 (Asia Pulse via COMTEX) -- US-listed Internet
gaming company New Discoveries Publishing plans to broadcast its online
betting market to Southeast Asian countries, including Malaysia.

It will make Australia its base for what it hopes to be a multi-billion
dollar push into Asia.

New Discoveries executive chairman Peter Michaels told The Australian
newspaper that the Nasdaq-listed company would use Australia as its
base for a free interactive satellite television network.

The company is negotiating with Global TV, an Australian production
house owned by Television & Media Services, for use of its studio
facilities and already has struck a deal with Cable & Wireless Optus to
use its satellite and telecommunications services.

Michaels said New Discoveries planned to broadcast, via C&W Optus's
satellites, a sports betting and a casino betting channel into Taiwan,
Hongkong, Singapore, the Philippines, Indonesia, South Korea and
Malaysia.

He expects the sports betting business to eventually generate US$100
million in revenues a month and for similar amount to come from casino
betting business.

Gross margins could be from US$25 million to US$100 million a month,
depending on the house's luck, Michaels said.

As an older silicon member, I think that the purpose of this thread is for the transfer of information on companies of interest, that others like yourselves, want to acquire. Trading stocks is the name of the game here. I am glad to see other investors who would like to see the value of our company grow and feel that if we ignore the "other circus acts" trying to catch our attention, they might just go away. We can do more good for WWWC to promote what is going on with others on this thread and other threads. Glad to have the both of you aboard and lets hope that we will see some return for our patience.
