EXHIBIT 10.6

                        INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT

This Agreement is entered into by and between:

1.   FINTEL Group Ltd, a Hongkong corporation, located at Suite 308, Hang Bong
     Centre, 28 Shanghai Street, Kowloon, Hongkong, (herein referred to as
     "FINTEL"); and

2.    Mr. Sam Chong Keen, a Singaporean Citizen, Passport No. S0141198E residing
      at 18 Angullia Park, #02-02 Angullia Mansions, Singapore 239973, herein
      referred to as "EXECUTIVE".

WHEREAS:

FINTEL agrees to employ the services of EXECUTIVE and EXECUTIVE accepts to
provide his services to FINTEL, under the following terms and conditions.

3.   TERM: The term of this agreement is one (1) years, starting November 1st,
     2004 through October 30th, 2005;

4.    DUTIES: The services provided by EXECUTIVE will be as follows: (a)
      locating potential clients (b) handling the negotiation (c) concluding the
      transaction (d) servicing the clients' needs and (e) ensuring the
      performance of the obligations of client and FINTEL. Additional duties
      might be required as agreed by both parties. EXECUTIVE will devote the
      best efforts in and to the faithful performance of the duties assigned by
      FINTEL.

5.   COMPENSATION:
     In consideration of the services to be rendered by EXECUTIVE as assigned by
     FINTEL, FINTEL shall pay an annual compensation and benefits based on the
     net income generated by EXECUTIVE per each client, not withstanding the
     termination of this contract, as follows:

     a)   Cash payment is calculated at 33.33% of the net income received by
          FINTEL as a result of EXECUTIVE's services. The payments will be made
          according to the schedule of payments actually received by FINTEL;

     b)   In addition, EXECUTIVE will be issued an option to purchase FINTEL
          restricted common shares at the closing price of FINTEL on the date of
          issuance, which is around the date of closing the deal. The amount of
          shares will equal to the amount in US dollar of the total value of
          consideration in the transaction. For example, if EXECUTIVE closes a 2
          million USD deal and the market price of FINTEL on the date of
          issuance is $0.20, he will be awarded a total of 2 million shares at
          the exercise price of $0.20 a share;

     c)   The option shall satisfy a vesting period before it can be exercised.
          The vesting period for the first one third of options is one year from
          date of issuance, two years for the second one third of options and
          three years for the third one third options. The option will be valid
          for a 3 year period from the end of respective vesting period. Should
          the client ends the service contract with Fintel before the vesting
          period is over, the remaining unvested options will be cancelled. For
          example, if the client ends the service contract in the second year,
          the remaining two third of the options will be cancelled. Should the
          client ends the service contract in the fourth year, no options will
          be cancelled regardless the options are exercised;

     d)   EXECUTIVE will be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable
          expenses incurred by him in connection with the performance of his
          duties, upon presentation of expense reports according to FINTEL's
          corporate regulation regarding expenses.

     e)   EXECUTIVE will be entitled to participate and receive extra benefits
          as other FINTEL employees in a similar executive position, and in
          accordance with the benefit plans or programs set forth by the Board
          of Directors in the past, now or in the future.

6.  TERMINATION: FINTEL or EXECUTIVE may terminate this Agreement unilaterally
    by giving advance notice to the other party 60 days in advance. EXECUTIVE
    shall be entitled to all accrued compensation and benefits prorated to the
    date of termination.

    employment, he will not, directly or indirectly, have any ownership interest
    of five percent or more in a corporation, firm, trust, association or other
    entity which is in competition with FINTEL

EXHIBIT 10.7

                        INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT

This Agreement is entered into by and between:

1.   FINTEL Group Ltd, a Hong Kong corporation, located at Suite 308, Hang Bong
     Centre, 28 Shanghai Street, Kowloon, Hongkong, or its designated affiliates
     (herein referred to as "FINTEL"); and

2.   Info Media Company, a Hong Kong company, located at 14-I, 127 King's Road,
     Hong Kong, herein referred to as "CONTRACTOR".

WHEREAS:

FINTEL agrees to employ the services of CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR accepts to
provide his services to FINTEL, under the following terms and conditions.

3.   TERM: The term of this agreement is one (1) years, starting January 1st,
     2005 through December 31st, 2005;

4.   DUTIES: The services provided by CONTRACTOR will be as follows: (a)
     locating potential clients (b) handling the negotiation (c) concluding the
     transaction (d) servicing the clients' needs and (e) ensuring the
     performance of the obligations of client and FINTEL. Additional duties
     might be required as agreed by both parties. CONTRACTOR will devote the
     best efforts in and to the faithful performance of the duties assigned by
     FINTEL.

5.   COMPENSATION:
     In consideration of the services to be rendered by CONTRACTOR as assigned
     by FINTEL, FINTEL shall pay an annual compensation and benefits based on
     the net income generated by CONTRACTOR per each client, not withstanding
     the termination of this contract, as follows:

     a)   Cash payment is calculated at 33.33% of the net income received by
          FINTEL as a result of CONTRACTOR's services. The payments will be made
          according to the schedule of payments actually received by FINTEL;

     b)   In addition, CONTRACTOR will be issued an option to purchase FINTEL
          restricted common shares on the same date as the issuance of shares
          per completion of the deal. The amount of option shares will equal to
          the total shares issued for the deal multiplied by the average share
          price of 30 trading days before completion (in USD) or the closing
          price on the date of completion, whichever is higher. For example, if
          CONTRACTOR signed a deal to issue two million shares and the average
          price of 30 trading days before completion is 0.21 and the price on
          the date of completion is 0.19, CONTRACTOR will be awarded a total of
          0.42 million option shares at the exercise price of $0.21 a share,
          which is higher of the average closing price of 30 trading days and
          the closing price on the date of completion;

     c)   The option shall satisfy a vesting period before it can be exercised.
          The vesting period for the first one third of options is one year from
          date of issuance, two years for the second one third of options and
          three years for the third one third options. The option will be valid
          for a 3 year period from the end of respective vesting period. Should
          the client ends the service contract with Fintel before the vesting
          period is over, the remaining unvested options will be cancelled. For
          example, if the client ends the service contract in the second year,
          the remaining two third of the options will be cancelled. Should the
          client ends the service contract in the fourth year, no options will
          be cancelled regardless the options are exercised;

     d)   CONTRACTOR will be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable
          expenses incurred by him in connection with the performance of his
          duties, upon presentation of expense reports according to FINTEL's
          corporate regulation regarding expenses.
