The principal business of China Poly A final dividend of HK 22.3 cents Group includes trading, real estate, cultural and per share has been proposed art, natural resources and civil explosives. It is by the Board of Directors named by SASAC as one of the key state-owned real estate developers and was rated as Class A HK 22.3 cents in 2012 annual performance evaluation of state- owned enterprises announced by SASAC. China Poly Group was also ranked in the top 30 in each given benchmark and was on top batch of 115 state-owned enterprises as measured by asset size. CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT 7 Poly Property Group Co., Limited | Annual Report 2013 8 CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT Business Review The recovery trend of the real estate market was sustained in 2013, following the rebound in the second half of 2012, but sales of commodity properties showed significant disparity in different regions and cities across China. In terms of policies, the Central Government maintained macro-control as stable overall. However, local governments implemented divergent concrete regulations, reflecting a preliminary disparity of the property market. By carefully analyzing market conditions and capitalizing on market opportunities, the Group achieved a steady increase in sales and maintained stable debt structures throughout the period. The Group's cash flow constantly improved and its professional and scientific management approach was continuously enhanced. Overall, the Group's operations improved steadily and operational plans were well enacted. The Group continued to maintain its property sales growth momentum throughout the period, with a total of 51 new and ongoing projects for sale. Contracted sales reached approximately RMB26.7 billion, in line with the Group's full-year sales target of RMB26 billion set at the beginning of the year, and representing a year-on-year growth of approximately 14%. The contracted area sold amounted to 2.50 million square metres, which is comparable to 2012. Consistently focusing on property sales and sticking to the market as its orientation, the Group proactively adapted its strategy to accommodate market demand, prioritizing the development of small-and-medium-sized ordinary residential housing that catered to genuine demand. During the period, 85% of the Group's contracted sales came from residential housing, among which 84% were small-and-medium-sized homes, both of which continued to increase when compared to 2012. The Group also focused on control of the key phases of the development to ensure the timely supply for capturing sales opportunities. The Group also asserted innovative marketing models, rolling out "Quality of Life in Poly" as its brand theme for 2013, in order to boost sales through experience-based marketing. While improving product quality and residential comfort, the Group was determined to providing a number of high-quality property management services to meet the diverse needs of its customers, thereby enhancing the soft power, price value and competitiveness of its projects on the whole. During the period, the Group maintained a relatively prudent approach as the land market began to recover, and determined the scale of its land acquisitions according to the level of sales in order to keep a stable land bank. 12 projects were acquired at reasonable prices through listing, acquisition or auction in the cities the Group tapped into. Among the 10 controlling projects acquired with a total gross floor area of approximately 4 million square metres (approximately 2.52 million square metres attributable to the Group), five projects were located in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta regions; four projects were located in other regions and one project was located in Southwestern region. The two JV projects acquired were situated in Guangzhou and Nanning respectively. Through the effective replenishment of new projects, the Group achieved a more balanced and rational land bank in all regions. Almost all newly-acquired projects are intended to be mass residentials with commercial facilities, in line with the Group's growth strategies and in favor of a more flexible arrangement of capitals. Poly Property Group Co., Limited | Annual Report 2013 CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT 9 The Group took a more proactive and flexible approach to management of capital during the period, to maintain a stable and smooth cash flow. The Group adhered to the management philosophy of setting expenditure in accordance with income, with cash flow management as the core principle. On one hand, by focusing on marketing and sales, the Group continued to accelerate sales and cash collections, strengthened process control on the projects under construction and put more capital to safeguard profitable projects and those to be recognized during the period. On the other hand, the Group was keen to capture potential opportunities and thus proactively expanded its financing channels. During the period, US$500 million worth of five-year bonds were successfully issued for the first time, receiving enthusiastic subscription. Through enhanced cooperation with banks to increase bank facilities, the Group achieved its objective of dynamic capital management and optimized its financial structures. During the period, the Group's net gearing ratio was further reduced, from 94% as at the end of 2012 to approximately 90%, with cash and cash equivalents amounting to approximately HK$15.5 billion as at the end of the year, in line with 2012 levels. Operating cash inflow and outflow remained balanced, which put the Group in a more favourable position to respond more rapidly to potential changes of the operating environment in the future. During the period, the Group further improved its control system. The Group focused on its business processes as well as standardization and systematization by consistently strengthening standardized construction and continuously promoting information-based construction and emphasized talent evaluation and trainings. All of these activities provided strong support towards the operation and development of the Group. Looking back at 2013, the Group's operations remained stable overall.

  • Combining Ability for Seed Yield and Other Characters in Rapeseed
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Suranaree University of Technology Intellectual Repository COMBINING ABILITY FOR SEED YIELD AND OTHER CHARACTERS IN RAPESEED Zesu Huang1,3, Paisan Laosuwan2,*, Thitiporn Machikowa3 and Zehui Chen1 Received: Aug 7, 2009; Revised: Nov 2, 2009; Accepted: Nov 24, 2009 Abstract Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is one of the most important oilseed crops of China. The improvement of yield and oil content is presently being emphasized for this crop. The objective of this study was to evaluate combining ability of rapeseed lines to be used in breeding for yield, oil content and other characters. Nine inbred lines used as males were crossed to five recessive genetic male sterile (RGMS) lines used as females in a factorial manner (NCII design) to produce 45 single crosses. The crosses and their parents were tested at Guiyang and Zunyi, Guizhou, China in 2007-2008. The results showed that mean squares for hybrids were significantly different for all characters. The SS ratios of sum of squares due to GCA to sum of squares of hybrids were 0.70, 0.80, 0.88 and 0.82 for seed yield, oil content, days to flowering and days to maturity, respectively, but SCA effects were significant for all characters except for days to maturity. This indicates that both additive and non-additive gene effects were important, but additive gene effects were more predominant for these characters. Males III188, III224, and Q034 gave large positive GCA effects for seed yield. Their respective values were 317.6, 253.1, and 383.5 kg ha-1.
