PRESS RELEASE
MultiVision Wins HK$48.67 million Contract to Install
its Digital Video Surveillance Products and Solutions
in 10 Casinos in Macau
MultiVision Intelligent Surveillance Limited ("MultiVision"
or the "Company"), a leading provider of digital
video surveillance products and solutions, today announced
that it has secured a HK$48.67 million (S$10.92 million)
contract from Macau's Elixir Group Limited ("Elixir
Group") to provide digital video surveillance products
and solutions to 10 casinos in Macau. Elixir Group is
the systems integration arm of online trading solutions
provider, Value Convergence Holdings, which is listed
on the Growth Enterprise Market of the Stock Exchange
of Hong Kong.
THE CONTRACT
Through Elixir, MultiVision will supply digital video
surveillance products and solutions to 10 casinos operated
by Macau gaming company, Sociedade de Jogos de Macau,
S.A ("SJM"), a subsidiary of Sociedade de
Turismo e Diversoes de Macau, S.A.R.L. The project involves
the upgrade of existing analog CCTV systems at SJM's
casinos to a digital video surveillance platform, commencing
at Casino Lisboa and the SJM control center in the fourth
quarter of calendar year 2003. The project is scheduled
to complete in the first half of MultiVision's Financial
Year 2005 ending 31 March 2005.
The contract is the fourth that MultiVision has signed
with Elixir Group in the last eight months. It follows
closely on the heels of the successful conclusion of
pilot projects at the Pharaoh's Palace and the Legend
Club Casino, as well as the award of a contract to provide
MultiVision's digital video surveillance products and
solutions to the Royal Hotel Casino and Man Yuen Casino
in September 2003.
On top of this contract, MultiVision has also inked
a deal with Elixir Group to provide HK$3.73 million
(S$837,012) worth of digital video surveillance products
and solutions to two other SJM-operated casinos -- Pharaoh's
Palace and Omar III Casino. The project will be implemented
on an expanded-facilities basis for SJM's additional
surveillance requirements, when new gaming tables are
set up at the respective casinos.
"This HK$48.67 million contract to install our
products and solutions at the remaining 10 SJM casinos
is a reaffirmation of the Elixir Group's confidence
in our products and solutions, as well as our ability
to deliver and deploy our products and solutions successfully
and in a timely manner," said Mr. Dennis Li, President
and Chief Operations Officer of MultiVision.
"MultiVision is delighted to be chosen by Elixir
Group as its vendor-of-choice in the project to upgrade
SJM's existing analog CCTV systems to an end-to-end
digital video surveillance platform," Mr. Li continued.
Added Mr. Gordon Yuen, Chief Executive Officer of Elixir
Group: "MultiVision has convinced our team that
its customized digital video surveillance products and
solutions built on MPEG4 hardware compression technology
are not only highly advanced, but also meet SJM's stringent
technical requirements of high systems reliability and
redundancy."
"We expect SJM to continue expanding its gaming
facilities on the back of plans to grow its presence
in Macau over the next 18 months. These new facilities
would no doubt require the installation of advanced
digital video surveillance products and solutions. With
the appointment of Elixir Group as SJM's partner in
all its surveillance projects, we expect follow-on projects
from SJM to generate robust sales for the Group over
the next few years."
