Bhd., operating as MyWeb, a business unit of MyWeb Inc.com. Full details of the financials are included in MyWeb's 8-K A filed yesterday with the U.S. SEC. In February, MyWeb Inc. com, then known as Asia Media Communications Ltd., announced its acquisition of 100 percent of TechnoChannel, whose MyWeb unit allows customers in Asia to use their television sets to access the Internet using a MyWeb set-top box and a remote control or wireless keyboard, much as Microsoft's (Nasdaq:MSFT - news) WebTV operates. The Arthur Andersen audit confirmed TechnoChannel's financial results for fiscal year 1998. In U.S. dollars, revenues were $1.31 million and profits were $375,000. The audit was conducted according to U.S. generally accepted accounting practices. According to T.S. Wong, president of MyWeb, ''We are very gratified that our 1998 operating results have been found to be in compliance with all applicable accounting practices and procedures.'' In recent weeks, MyWeb has consummated a number of several strategic relationships with major Internet providers in China, as well as with several leading television and computer manufacturers.

Under terms of agreement, Beijing Telecom and MyWeb are to jointly deploy 200,000 units of MyWeb set-top boxes this year through a combination of rental and leasing. This should help MyWeb to establish itself even further as a leading Internet solution provider in China. In other recent collaborations, MyWeb has teamed with Soyea, part of the West Lake Electronics Group, for the licensing of MyWeb's Thunder client software. West Lake, which produces 1.6 million TV sets annually, is one of China's largest TV manufacturers. The Lang Chao Computer Co., maker of China's third-largest-selling computer brand in 1997, has also allied itself with MyWeb to develop set-top boxes for distribution and use in China. Since the number of Internet users in China is expected to grow dramatically from 2 million in 1999 to as many as 10 million in 2000, China would then rank second only to the United States in Internet usage, according to Far Eastern Economic Review. MyWeb is also a major player in e-commerce, where its volume is currently growing by more than 100 percent per quarter. MyWeb projects $1 million per month in 1999 from e-commerce sales of consumer goods alone, with the majority of its e-commerce revenues origi...https://www.siliconinvestor.com/images/Logo380x132.pnghttps://www.siliconinvestor.com/subject.aspx?subjectid=2823438013210
