RE: Withdrawal of Post-Effective Amendment No. 5, Accession Number
0000088053-99-001296, to the Registration Statement under the
Securities Act of 1933 of Kemper Asian Growth Fund (the "Fund"), File
Nos. 333-09069 and 811-07731
Dear Ms. Riegel:
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "1933
Act"), the Fund hereby applies to withdraw Post-Effective Amendment No. 5,
Accession Number 0000088053-99-001296, to its registration statement under the
1933 Act that was filed on December 29, 1999.
The Amendment was filed pursuant to Rule 485(a) under the Securities Act of 1933
and Rule 8b-16 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for review and comment
by the staff of the Commission. However, due to a clerical error, two
Post-Effective Amendments were filed for the Fund, instead of one. Therefore,
the Fund hereby requests the withdrawal of the second Post-Effective Amendment.
Please contact James Cove at (617) 295-3357 with any questions you may have
concerning this matter.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Philip J. Collora
