        ASIA PACIFIC WIRE & CABLE ANNOUNCES A DELAY IN THE RELEASE OF ITS
           FINANCIAL RESULTS PENDING COMPLETION OF ITS 2004 FINANCIAL
                                   STATEMENTS

NEW YORK, NY - JULY 1, 2005 - Asia Pacific Wire & Cable Corporation Limited (OTC
Bulletin Board: AWRCF) (the "Company") announced today that it will be unable to
timely file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") its Annual
Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2004. Under the applicable
rules of the SEC, the Form 20-F is required to be filed on or before June 30,
2005.

     The Company's board of directors, including its audit committee, and its
management, are currently in the process of completing an internal
investigation, the focus of which includes:

     1.  Certain related party transactions among Pacific Electric Wire and
         Cable Company Limited, the former majority shareholder of the Company,
         and certain of its subsidiaries, and the Company.

     2.  Certain inter-company loans between the Company and certain of its
         subsidiaries and affiliates.

     3.  Certain unauthorized payments from APWC and certain of its subsidiaries
         to several of its former directors and officers.

     4.  The adequacy of effective internal controls and procedures of the
         Company.

     In April, 2005, the Company announced that gross revenues for 2004 were
just below $300 million, and represented a 41% increase in total revenue over
2003. It further announced that the provision of $2 million in its nine month
financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2004 was for doubtful
accounts and that additional reserves to be taken for the fourth quarter 2004
would be in the $1 million to $2 million range. Based upon its continuing
internal investigation, the Company believes that a write off may be required
also to resolve certain other accounting issues, including an impairment of
goodwill. Due to the impact of those adjustments, and the significant impact on
the Company of the 2004 increase in the price of copper, its principal raw
material, the Company believes its 2004 net income will be determined to be
materially lower than its 2003 net income.

     Ernst & Young, the Company's independent auditors, has informed the Company
that it will complete its audit of the financial statements for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2004


<PAGE>

after the Board of Directors has had an opportunity to make determinations based
on the internal investigation and to have these determinations reflected, if
necessary, in the 2004 financial statements. The Company will work diligently to
complete the internal investigation and file the Form 20-F as promptly as
practicable. In the event that the Company is unable to file its Form 20-F with
the SEC within the 30 day grace period permitted under the rules of the OTC
Bulletin Board, the Company's shares may be subject to delisting from the OTC
Bulletin Board and thereafter be traded in the Pink Sheets to the extent a
market is available.
