If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense and the Registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the

[X] (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form

Part III--Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion
thereof could not be filed within the prescribed period.
The Registrant is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, within the prescribed period because the
Registrant's independent auditors were not able to deliver their final audit
report to the Registrant for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 in time for
filing of the Form 20-F by the June 30, 1997 due date. The Registrant is,
therefore, unable to complete the preparation and filing of its Annual Report on
Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, within the prescribed
period.

Dear Sirs,
Please be advised that the audit of Electrocon International, Inc. and its
subsidiaries is likely to be delayed by 15 to 20 days. The reason is mainly due
to the delay in delivery of documentations of the Group's China set up.
