<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 14pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>Portfolio Review</B></DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Market review:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Taiwan Stock Exchange Index (&#147;TAIEX&#148;) declined by 7% in U.S. dollar
terms in August mainly due to: (1)&nbsp;disappointing second quarter 2005 corporate
earnings, (2)&nbsp;the threat that increased oil prices and rising interest rates
may dampen US consumption prospects, and (3)&nbsp;fear of slowing Personal Computer
(&#147;PC&#148;) demand after Dell&#146;s warnings of PC inventory issues. Both foreign
investors and local mutual funds were net sellers, with net selling amounting
to NT$8.7&nbsp;billion and NT$13.5&nbsp;billion, respectively. Proprietary traders also
remained net sellers with net selling amounting to NT$ 5.6&nbsp;billion. On the
economic front, the leading indicator in July declined to 106.9, -0.7% compared
to the previous month. The Consumer Price Index (&#147;CPI&#148;) in August was 3.6%, an
increase of 2.1% compared to the previous month, mainly caused by higher food
prices due to the typhoon impact. M2 Money (a measure of total money supply
that includes circulating cash, savings and other time deposits) supply growth
was 6.5% in July, with year to date growth rate of 6.1%, which is considered
moderate for the equity market. In terms of sector performance, most major
sectors declined, including technology (-5.7%), financials (-5.3%), shipping
(-5.2%) and construction (-3.2%). Defensive sectors such as steel (&#043;5.3%) and
plastics (&#043;1.1%) were outperformers during the month as funds shifted into
those sectors.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Fund Performance Review:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Fund underperformed its benchmark by 0.4% in August. Despite an
underweight position, the banking sector contributed positively to performance.
However, overweight positions in handset and Integrated Circuit (&#147;IC&#148;) design
sectors contributed to the Fund&#146;s overall negative performance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Investment Strategy:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Due to slowing demand from China and increasing supply from new capacities,
cyclical sectors have likely reached their cyclical peaks and margins may
contract and earnings may decline in the coming few quarters. We therefore
plan to underweight the industrial cyclical sectors, such as steel,
petrochemical, paper and textile. On the other hand, we plan to overweight the
technology sector due to the following factors: (1)&nbsp;technology seasonal
momentum remains on track, with expected 25% to 30% earnings growth in the
second half of 2005 as compared to the first half of 2005, (2)&nbsp;technology
product demand still remains strong, and (3)&nbsp;the positive market impact of
abundant liquidity in Taiwan. In addition, some other factors appear positive
for the technology sector, including rising utilization rates in most
semiconductor companies, strong demand for notebook PCs and handsets and the
upcoming peak season for consumer electronics products. Therefore, we expect
that the share prices of technology companies should continue to outperform in
the coming two months. Due to the factors mentioned above, we believe Taiwan&#146;s
stock market has a 5% to 8% upside potential before the end of 2005. We also
plan to underweight financial shares due to the slow progress of financial
reform and slowing growth of loan demand (7.3% in July). Our future focus will
be technology stocks with good value and expected stable earnings growth in the
third and fourth quarters of 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">*Returns for the Fund are historical total returns that reflect changes in net asset value
per share during each period and assume that dividends and capital gains, if any, were
reinvested. Returns for the Taiwan Stock Exchange Index (&#147;TAIEX&#148;) are not total returns and
reflect only changes in share price but do not assume that cash dividends, if any, were
reinvested, and thus are not strictly comparable to the Fund returns. Past performance is not
indicative of future results of the Fund. Returns are annualized, except for periods of less
than one year, which are not annualized.
