Capital Alliance Group Inc. Unveils Reorganization Plans to Unlock Shareholder Value
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Jan. 22, 2007) -
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO US NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE US
Capital Alliance Group Inc. (the "Company or CAG") (TSX VENTURE:CPT) is pleased to announce its corporate re-organization plan designed to unlock shareholder value through the simplification of the Company's corporate structure. This process will reposition the company with the sole focus of serving the Chinese education market.
CAG is currently comprised of:
i) a 78% ownership share in CIBT School of Business and Technology Corp. ("CIBT"), a leading Chinese education company;
(ii) Irix Design Group Inc, a media and communications company; and
(iii) Black Gardenia Inc., a media and Internet job search company.
As China continues to experience significant growth and its government and citizens increasingly focus on education, the Company has decided to focus its efforts on this market, with CIBT well positioned to exploit the Chinese education market given its track record of success and credibility built over a decade of operating in China.
After extensive review and discussion with investment professionals in the United States and Canada, as well as with strategic and significant shareholders of the Company and professional advisor's of both CAG and CIBT, management has proposed the following re-organization plan to its Board of Directors:
1) The Company will, through an exempt take over bid, make an offer to all CIBT minority shareholders to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of CIBT. The payment under the offer will consist solely of CAG shares, the specific ratio yet to be determined. If the offer is accepted by the holders of at least 90% of the CIBT shares not already held by CAG, CIBT will become a wholly owned subsidiary of CAG.
2) CAG will combine with CIBT to form one entity, and change its name to CIBT Education Group Inc. (hereinafter "CIBT Group").
3) The Company will sell-off all non-education related holdings over time so that the post combined entity will become a "pure-play" education venture with a sole focus on China's education sector.
4) All existing corporate finance activities with BMO Capital Markets Corp of New York will continue to proceed as planned.
5) Upon successful completion of planned corporate finance activities, CIBT Group (the post re-organization entity) will be well positioned to seek other senior exchange listings and to expand its market presence into the United States through our working relationship with our investment bankers.
The objective of this corporate re-organization is for Capital Alliance to unlock value CIBT has created over the years in China's booming economy while providing CIBT shareholders a form of liquidity by receiving CAG shares. Currently, CIBT is a private entity owned by CAG and investors do not have the ability to invest directly into CIBT other than through the parent company. This corporate re-organization will provide investors who are seeking investment opportunities in a company with a focus on China's education sector the ability to buy shares from the open market. In addition to unlocking shareholder value, directing all potential investors to one entity instead of two will also streamline operating costs for both companies by eliminating one level of corporate ownership. Additionally, the reorganization will result in greater management focus and allow the company to utilize its resources more efficiently.
Subject to receiving formal approval from the Board of Directors of CAG and CIBT, the Company plans to commence this re-organization and several other corporate finance related activities immediately. Further details will be available in upcoming Company announcements to follow shortly. We thank our shareholders for their support over the years and we look forward to executing this exciting initiative in early 2007.
CAG also reports that the current normal course issuer bid has been suspended.
Capital Alliance Group Inc.
Toby Chu, President & C.E.O.

After recently completing a joint venture with Bertelsmann Publishing Group for trade book distribution, we are looking forward to concluding our agreements with Lingo Media and launching this joint venture," said Xiaoqun Yu, director and vice-general manager of Liaoning Publishing Group. Michael Kraft, president and chief executive officer of Lingo Media, added, "We are excited to be partnering up with a publishing powerhouse like LPG, a partner who provides Lingo Media with additional access to the China market through their national distribution network."

We believe this is the first step in an exciting new direction for SE Global and its stockholders," commented Toby Chu, chairman and chief executive officer of SE Global Equities Corp.
"We look forward to completing this initial transaction and commencing with our merger and acquisition plans in China and North America immediately following the merger," commented Dr. Bruno Wu, executive chairman of Sun Media Investment Holdings Ltd.

Capital Alliance's SE Global outlines Sun Media deal
2005-01-10 17:23 ET - News Release
Mr. Toby Chu reports
CAPITAL ALLIANCE GROUP PROVIDES FOLLOW-UP ON SUN MEDIA INVESTMENT HOLDINGS
Capital Alliance Group Inc. subsidiary SE Global Equities Corp. has released supplemental corporate information provided by Sun Media Investment Holdings Ltd. on its recent announcement, which was reported in Stockwatch on Jan. 7, 2005.
Introduction to Sun Media Investment Holdings
Sun Media Investment Holdings (SMIH) is a media investment company that was founded between 1998 and 1999 by the popular Chinese TV program host Yang Lan and her husband Dr. Bruno Wu. Currently, SMIH invests in six key areas of media: television, publishing, sports marketing, education, advertising and financial news. SMIH has direct interests in 11 media companies, through which it holds shares in more than 30 media operations, which it believes control no less than 60 media brands in nine countries and 15 cities.
SMIH's top investments
One of SMIH's flagship investments is in Asia Multi-Media Technology Services Holdings Ltd. (AMT). AMT brings together multimedia content and network assets with experienced management to capture value and market share in China's growing multimedia industry sector. AMT has ownership of an advanced fibre optic network including a 34,880-kilometre two-core national IP fibre optic network servicing 440 cities in China and providing access to premium multimedia content assets and alliances, which it will deliver through its network to businesses, organizations and local service providers. SMIH believes AMT's fibre optic network is one of the longest in length in China and it has an appraised net tangible asset value of approximately $268-million (U.S.).
Through SMIH's content suppliers, AMT has access to a variety of multimedia content spanning such focus topics as business, sports, health care and gaming. By combining exclusive content with its proprietary network assets, AMT believes it has the synergies and competitive advantages to secure a competitive niche as one of China's premium content multimedia providers. AMT also plans to establish strategic partners, which it expects will include China's financial institutions, banks and insurance companies for setting up a national disaster backup storage network.
SMIH together with Lenovo, one of China's largest IT companies, has formed a joint venture named Sun 365 Multimedia Holdings Ltd. to develop broadband multimedia content and applications in China. Sun 365's media content will be added to AMT's pipeline of content offerings.
SMIH has also begun to penetrate the North American market with its media content through its Hong Kong-based subsidiary, The Observer Star Global Publishing Holdings Ltd., and its Chinese-language premium business newspaper, The Observer Star. Since its launch on Aug. 30, 2004, SMIH believes The Observer Star has established itself as a reliable source of business information and insight on businesses in China.

The man responsible for that attack was executed on Wednesday. The court said his actions had been "especially cruel".
Bunk beds
In the latest incident - the fourth in two months - a man, believed to be alone, broke into the school and stabbed the victims to death as they slept.
"It happened in the boys' dormitory. It happened around midnight," a teacher told the French news agency, AFP.
A government officials said those killed were all in the lower beds of bunk beds.
