Dear Sir/Madam,

United States Executive Order 13224 ("Executive Order")

Further to my letter of 11 September 2003, I am writing to inform you that the US Government has designated additional names under the Executive Order. The list of additional names can be found in the website of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Treasury (www.ustreas.gov/offices/eotffc/ofac/sanctions/terrorism.html) under the respective headings of "Names of Individuals Designated on 23 September 2003", "Name of Entity Designated on 14 October 2003", "Name of Individual Designated on 16 October 2003"and "Names of Those Listed on 24 October 2003".

The US Government has also added aliases to some existing designated foreign terrorist organizations listed under Details of Specially Designated Global Terrorist [SDGT] Entities. The designated foreign terrorist organizations and their newly added aliases are also set out in Annex.

You should review your records carefully to see whether you have had, or currently have, accounts, transactions or dealings with the names identified in the list. If such review reveals any suspicious accounts, transactions or dealings, you should promptly notify the Joint Financial Intelligence Unit.

As the designated individuals and entities under the Executive Order may be updated by the US Government from time to time, you are reminded to browse the website of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Treasury regularly for the latest information.

Should you have any enquiries, please contact Mr. William Hsieh at 2867 4529 or Miss Connie Cheng at 2867 4815.





Yours sincerely,

(Ros K.T. Lam)
for Commissioner of Insurance

Encl.
