opportunities within the Vancouver Chinese community and the Orient.

Dragon Gate will be promoted extensively through traditional media to the
Chinese community. Much of the service information will also make use of
INFOBOX`s voice and fax on demand services to provide local distribution to
thousands of households not yet on the internet. Furthermore, Dragon Gate
will be promoted internationally through the use of cross links with major
web sites around the Pacific Rim as well as media coverage in key cities in
the Orient.
All community related information and non-commercial announcements will be
collected and organized as a free service to the Chinese community. To offset
the significant cost needed to provide these services, Dragon Gate will
accept a limited number of sponsorships.
Dragon Gate is also an ideal home site for companies interested in making
their presence on the "net". Chinese consumers have above average purchasing
powers. By advertising with Dragon Gate, any business will have excellent
exposure to Chinese consumers in the local market. As well, many global
internet users will be visiting this site so any business information here
will gain international exposure through its association with Dragon Gate.
