 Asia. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of all laws and regulations, which apply to the Company’s business and operations. Investors should note that the following summary is based on relevant laws and regulations in force as of the date of this Report, which may be subject to change. Our business is predominantly conducted by our Group Subsidiaries in Singapore, but we have operations also in Malaysia and Hong Kong and outside of Asia. Hong Kong was established as a special administrative region of the PRC in accordance with Article 31 of the Constitution of the PRC. The Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (the “Basic Law”) was adopted and promulgated on April 4, 1990 and became effective on July 1, 1997, when the PRC resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong. Pursuant to the Basic Law, Hong Kong is authorized by the National People’s Congress of the PRC to exercise a high degree of autonomy and enjoy executive, legislative and independent judicial power, under the principle of “one country, two systems”; furthermore, the laws previously in force in Hong Kong, that is, the common law, rules of equity, ordinances, subordinate legislation and customary law, shall be maintained, except for any that contravene the Basic Law and are subject to any amendment by the legislature of Hong Kong, and the national laws of the mainland China shall not be applied in Hong Kong except for those that relating to defense, foreign affairs and other matters that are not outside the limits of the autonomy of Hong Kong as specified by the Basic Law, which are listed under Annex III to the Basic Law. 61 We are subject to various laws and regulations in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and the other countries in which we operate, including those relating to video game distribution and classification, internet content, consumer protection, labor laws, prevention of money laundering and financing of criminal activity and terrorism, privacy and data protection, foreign exchange controls and competition laws, among others, all of which are continuously evolving and developing. It is also likely that as our business grows and evolves to other countries, including Japan, PRC, Brazil, U.A.E and United Kingdom, and we will become subject to laws and regulations in additional jurisdictions. The scope and interpretation of the laws and regulations that are or may be applicable to us are often unclear and may conflict. Additional laws in these and other areas affecting our business are likely to be enacted in the future, which could
