Bonso Electronics Announces Shareholder Meeting and Internet Availability of Proxy Materials
October 25 2007 - 8:30AM
PR Newswire (US)
TORTOLA, British Virgin Islands, Oct. 25
/Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bonso Electronics International
Inc. (NASDAQ:BNSO) today announced that the Annual General Meeting
of Shareholders for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, will be
held at Room 510, Milan of The Venetian Macao-Resort-Hotel, Taipa
Island, Macao, China at 1:00 p.m., Macao time, on November 29,
2007. The record date for shareholders entitled to vote at the
Annual General Meeting will be October 19, 2007. Bonso will be
following an approach similar to the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission's new rules for making proxy materials available over
the Internet. Bonso believes that this approach will allow it to
reduce the number of printed copies of its proxy materials this
year by more than 90%, both lowering the cost and reducing the
environmental impact of producing and delivering these materials.
"The Internet presents the fairest and most direct mechanism for
the dissemination of all information -- investor information is no
different," said Anthony So, Chairman of Bonso Electronics
International, Inc. "Providing our proxy materials over the
Internet, with printed materials on request only, increases the
transparency of our business, reduces what we introduce into the
waste stream, and simultaneously pares down the needless expense of
paper filings. Everyone wins.' Under the approach that Bonso is
following, instead of delivering a printed set of proxy materials
to each stockholder, Bonso will deliver a "Notice of Internet
Availability of Proxy Materials" to stockholders, provide Internet
access to the proxy materials for stockholders, and provide a
printed set of proxy materials by mail to any stockholder who
requests them. Bonso's annual report on Form 20-F has been filed
with the SEC, and may be viewed on Bonso's website at
http://www.bonso.com/investor . Bonso's proxy statement will be
filed with the SEC under cover of Form 6-K, and will be available
for viewing on Bonso's website at http://www.bonso.com/investor .
Bonso's stockholders may obtain hard copies of Bonso's proxy
materials free of charge by following the instructions provided in
the "Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials". About
