Unaudited  Interim Results 
 
 
For the six months ended 30 June 2009 
 
 
 
 
Chairman's statement 
I am pleased to announce the interim results of Asia Resources Plc ("Asia 
Resources"), for the six months ended 30 June 2009. 
The unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2009 show a 
profit before taxation of MYR 2,693,000 and a profit after taxation of MYR 
1,546,000 (2008 : MYR 2,028,000). The basic and diluted earnings per share were 
1.03sen (2008 : 1.35sen). The balance sheet shows net assets of MYR 58,245,000 
(2008 : MYR 55,267,000). 
The Group's subsidiary, LS Gold Bullion Sdn. Bhd. ("LSJ" formerly known as Lin 
Shoon Jewellers Sdn Bhd) has seen sales growth of 20%, partly as a result of the 
rise in gold prices but predominately from higher physical gold volumes. Gross 
profit has been maintained in the face of depressed processing margin, which we 
believe have bottomed out. The board has identified opportunities for enhancing 
margin with the creation of a bespoke, branded product. 
Group cash generated from operations has increased from MYR 1,047,000 in 2008 to 
MYR 4,501,000 in 2009 and cash from operating activities is now positive at MYR 
2,073,000 (2008 negative MYR 2,010,000). In the six months ended 30.06.2009 LSJ 
has invested just under MYR 6 million in new plant and machinery for the 
manufacture of higher margin gold products to support the Group strategy of 
margin enhancement. 
The Company is currently investigating projects that will assist in sourcing 
more raw product and  continues to seek investment opportunities in the gold and 
related industries.

  Notes to the Half-yearly Interim Financial Statements 
 
 
1.      Basis of 
preparation 
This condensed set of financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2009 
is unaudited and does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 
434 of the Companies Act 2006. They have been prepared using accounting bases 
and policies consistent with those used in the preparation of the financial 
statements of the Company and the Group for the year ended 31 December 2008 and 
those to be used in the year ending 31 December 2009. The financial statements 
for the year ended 31 December 2008 have been delivered to the Registrar of 
Companies and the auditors' report on those financial statements was (i) 
unqualified (ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the 
auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report, and 
(iii) did not contain a statement under section 237(2) or (3) of the Companies 
Act 1985. 
 
 
Information required by AIM rule 26 is available in the investor relations 
section of Asia Resources' website at www.asiaresourcesplc.co.uk. The Company's 
shares are traded on AIM, a market operated by the London Stock Exchange. 
 
 
This half-yearly financial report was approved by the Board of Directors on 30 
September 2009. 
 
 
2.       Accounting policies 
These condensed consolidated half-yearly financial statements for the half-year 
ended 30 June 2009 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim 
Financing Reporting, as adopted by the European Union. These condensed 
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual 
financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2008 which have been 
prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. 
 
 
Change in accounting policies 
In the current financial year, the Group will adopt International Financial 
Reporting Standard 8 "Operating segments" (IFRS 8) for the first time. As IFRS 8 
is a disclosure standard, there is no impact of that change in accounting policy 
on the results, or financial position in, the interim financial statements. Full 
details of the change will be disclosed in our annual report for the year ended 
31 December 2009. 
 
 3.  Business segments 
A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing 
products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different 
from those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in 
providing products, or services, within a particular economic environment that 
are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments 
operating in other economic environments. The group only has one operating and, 
in the directors' opinion, business segmental analysis is therefore not 
required. 
 
 
Business segments - the purchase and reprocessing of scrap gold and the 
reselling of the resulting bullion. There is ancillary trading in other precious 
metals and stones and craftsmanship but these are not considered significant. 
 
 
Geographical segments - one geographical segment, being Malaysia. 
 
 
 
 
4.  Tax Charges 
The half year tax charge is accrued based on the estimated average annual income 
tax rate of 26 per cent (12 months ended 31 December 2008: 26 per cent)

8.  Prior year adjustment 
During 2007, the Group entered into a sale agreement to dispose of TNK Trading 
(m) Sdn. Bhd ("TNK")., which had carried out all of the Group's money lending 
operations. The disposal was completed on 10 May 2007 and resulted in a 
receivable of MYR 676,000 for the unpaid consideration. The consideration was 
never received by the Group and TNK did not trade from 2007 to 2009. In 2009 the 
Group applied to the High Court of Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia and the court 
directed that the original sale of shares be nullified. The Group has therefore 
reinstated TNK as a subsidiary by means of a prior year adjustment to the 2007 
accounts. The prior year adjustment has resulted in an increase in payables of 
MYR 2.1 million and a corresponding decrease in retained earnings.
