report MediLink's successful expansion into China which we said was our
intention when we floated on AIM in November 2008. We are delighted with the
number of agreements signed with insurance companies, especially with global
brands like AXA Winterthur and AVIVA-COFCO and we are confident these agreements
will translate into strong revenue in 2010. I am also very pleased that Lifeinc
is now making a material contribution to the group's revenue and with the maiden
contract win in Thailand, feel these initiatives are a reflection of the
Company's strategy to provide our services throughout SE Asia."

Chairman's Statement
Medilink-Global UK Limited (together with subsidiaries, the "Group") is pleased
to present the Group's unaudited first half interim results for the six month
period ended 30 June 2009.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Group recorded revenues of GBP673,000 and a loss after tax of GBP441,000 for
the six months ended 30 June 2009. Revenues have increased substantially over
the same period last year with the introduction of the Lifeinc business in
Singapore, while the core business in Malaysia has grown by 450%. The Malaysian
operating entities contributed 70% of the Group revenue but contributions from
the Singapore and China operations at 23% and 7% respectively are now making an
impact on the business. The operating loss for the period was in line with
expectations but the results were distorted by an unrealised foreign exchange
loss of GBP136,000 as a result of the weakening of the Malaysian Ringgit against
Sterling. Other factors contributing to the loss were the amortisation of
intangible assets of GBP34,000, the share of loss of the associated company in
Thailand of GBP20,000 and the high operating costs in China in tandem with the
accelerated pace of expansion. In comparison to last year the Group has incurred
additional costs in the UK this year following its admission to AIM as you would
expect for a quoted company.
PERIOD IN FOCUS
The first half of 2009 has been an exciting period for the China operations as
witnessed by the successful signing of new Third Party Administrator ("TPA")
contracts with three insurance companies. Up to date, we have secured TPA
contracts with eight insurance companies in China. In March 2009, the issued and
paid up share capital of Medilink (Beijing) TPA Services Co Ltd had been
increased from GBP88,075 to GBP304,081 in order to fund the expanding
operations.
In April 2009 the Group acquired Lifeinc Holdings, a Singapore TPA company
bringing with it an existing network of over 160 clinics and hospitals thereby
making it immediately earnings enhancing. It is hoped that the acquisition will
not only make a positive contribution to the Group's net profit but that it will
also raise Medilink's profile in a country where many pan-Asian insurance
companies have their headquarters.
Operations in Malaysia remained profitable during the period and we are in the
process of implementing the ECCS (Electronic Claims Clearance System) in
Singapore and expect to phase out the dated existing system by the end of the
year.
The customisation of the ECCS for Thailand market shall be completed before the
end of the third quarter of 2009 and 237 Electronic Data Capture (EDC) terminals
have been deployed in various cities throughout Thailand.
PROSPECTS
While the Group is actively seeking to formalise strategic alliances with
established TPA's in other regions and countries, its main focus is to
consolidate its position and concentrate in expanding its revenues through
offering its range of services to insurance companies and corporate clients via
the use of "ECCS" and the "EDC" healthcare provider network in its existing
territories with a particular emphasis on China, Singapore and Thailand. With
the positive progress achieved from our market development activities in China
as well as in Singapore and Thailand, the Directors believe that the Group's
second half 2009 financial performance will improve significantly.

Notes to the Financial Information
Period ended 30 June 2009
1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. The
principal accounting policies used in preparing the interim results are those
the group expects to apply in its financial statements for the year ended 31
December 2009 and are unchanged from those disclosed in the group's Report and
Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2008 except for the impact
of the Standards and Interpretations described below:
* Revised IFRS 8 Operating Segments - effective for annual periods beginning or
after 1 January 2009. IFRS 8 is a disclosure standard that has resulted in a
re-designation of the Group's reportable segments, but has no impact on the
reported results or financial position of the Group.
* IAS 1 (revised 2007) Presentation of Financial Statements - effective for annual
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009. IAS 1 (revised 2007) presents
transactions with owners in detail and non-owner changes in equity as a single
line in the statement of changes in equity. The standard introduces a Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income which presents all items of
unrecognised income and expense and is linked to the Consolidated Income
Statement. In addition, the Consolidated Balance Sheet has been renamed to
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the Consolidated Cash
Flow Statement has been renamed to Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows.
The Interim Results have not been audited by the Company's auditors. The
comparatives for the period ended 31 December 2008 are not the Company's full
statutory accounts for that period. A copy of the statutory accounts for that
period, which were prepared under IFRS, have been delivered to the Registrar of
Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was unqualified.
Whilst the financial information included in this Interim Financial information
has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of
IFRS, it does not include sufficient information to comply with IFRS.
The financial information set out in this announcement was approved by the board
on 28 September 2009.
2 Basic and diluted loss per ordinary share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity
holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in
issue during the period. In accordance with IAS 33 and where the Group has
reported a loss for the period the shares are not diluted.
