Attention:  Managing Director
           The Stock Exchange of Thailand
Ref.:   Minutes of Executive Committee Meeting No. 16, 1998
Further to the submission of the  Minutes of Executive CommitteeMeeting No. 
16/1998 to SET, we hereby would like to additionally clarify on the selling 
of  CBI ST Ltd. shares as follows:
1)   The Company intended to sell the shares to Mr. Ratiwan Samphaothong 
who does not have any related business with the Company.  The buyer expects 
to possibly add the value to the shares in the long term.
2)   The Company agreed to sell those shares at 1 Baht per share for 4,374 
shares (paid up total shares at 100 per cent of the registered capital and 
paid up) and 0.25 Satang for 345,783 shares ( paid up the shares at 25 per 
cent of the registered capital and paid up) which costing the total amount 
of 90,819.75 Baht (Ninety Thousand Eight Hundred Nineteen Baht and Seventy 
Five Satang).  The said share price is found reasonable to sell out because 
the Company can sell the shares in higher price than the book value which 
the value is at zero now due to the total liabilities  being over the total 
asset.
   Your kind acknowledgment will be appreciated.
   Sincerely,
   
Mr. Woraphant Chonthong
