NATIONAL AUSTRALIA: Snubbed by Customers in Survey
--------------------------------------------------
A customer satisfaction survey conducted by Nielsen has provided
the first concrete proof that the currency trading scandal that
hit the National Australia Bank in January has indeed hurt its
image, as thousands of people responded that they no longer want
NAB as their bank, reports The Australian.

According to Nielsen's Financial Institution Customer Monitor
released Friday, NAB was the only major bank whose customer
satisfaction fell in the March quarter survey period, slipping
from 78.6 to 77.6 percent. The survey, which asked 6500 bank
customers if they intended to change their main financial
institution (MFI), also revealed that only 2.6 percent of
customers wishing to switch institutions said they would prefer
NAB.

"The NAB's dealing room losses hit the bank's retail customer
base from three directions -- satisfaction of existing customers
dropped, (more) customers planning to leave and a slump in NAB
as choice of next bank," Nielsen says.

NAB revealed in January that unauthorized transactions by four
currency traders led to $180 million in pre-tax losses, which
was later doubled to $360 million. The scandal has forced NAB's
bank's chief executive and chairman and many other senior staff
to quit their posts.


QANTAS AIRWAYS: Scraps Planned Terminals' Sale
----------------------------------------------
Following its decision to scrap the planned sale of its major
Sydney terminal, Australian carrier Qantas Airways has also
chosen to abandon plans to sell its Melbourne and Perth airport
terminals, which, together with the Sydney terminal, could have
brought in $1 billion to the airline's coffers, relates the
Sydney Morning Herald.

According to a Qantas spokesman, however, the airline's backing
out of the planned sales will not affect its $6 billion aircraft
purchase program.

In a bid to make its operations more flexible, Qantas had
studied selling the three terminals as a way of converting fixed
costs into variable costs. The airline, which is holding the
terminals on long-term leases, is burdened with fixed annual
rents that cannot be varied with the level of business.

Qantas had hoped to replace these costs with costs based on
passenger numbers by selling the leases back to the airports or
to other parties, a move that could cut the airline's terminal
costs in situations like the SARS outbreak in 2003, when
passenger numbers fell 25 percent.

Australia is the only major airline market in which domestic
carriers own terminals.


VILLAGE ROADSHOW: Investor Complains About Buyback
--------------------------------------------------
One of Village Roadshow's smallest investors has filed a
complaint with the Australian Securities and Investments
Commission against the ordinary share buyback of the film and
entertainment group, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.

In its filing with the Australian securities watchdog, German
investor Boswell Filmgesellschaft claimed Village Roadshow
should not be spending money on buybacks since there are
uncertainties surrounding the group's balance sheet.

Boswell's complaint centers on section 257A of the Corporations
Act, which stipulates that "a company may buy back its own
shares if: (a) the buyback does not materially prejudice the
company's ability to pay its creditors; and (b) the company
follows the procedures laid down in this division".

For his part, Village managing director Graham Burke said on
Friday it seemed strange that an investor with only 2000 shares
was "spending a fortune on legal fees and claim they have no
association with any other shareholding".

The buyback, worth $43 million, will be financed by debt and
comes on top of the $170 million the company has spent in recent
months buying back 56 percent of its non-voting preference
shares.

PERTAMINA: To Finalize Sale of Two VLCCs This Week
--------------------------------------------------
The sale of Indonesian state oil company Pertamina's two Very
Large Crude Carriers (VLCC) to Norway's Frontline LTD for more
than US$190 million will be finalized this week, reports Dow
Jones, citing Pertamina president-director Ariffi Nawawi.

Frontline LTD was chosen out of 60 prospective firms that
responded to a tender Pertamina issued in May this year to sell
the giant tankers.

Mr. Ariffi said the firm is selling VLCCs because they are not
into the tanker business and it is "more efficient chartering
than owning tankers."


PERTAMINA: Pertamina Denies Corruption Allegations
--------------------------------------------------
State oil and gas company PT Pertamina denied on Sunday
accusations that it had treated a number of legislators to Hong
Kong and South Korea tours to cajole them into approving the
planned sale of two giant oil tankers, relates The Jakarta Post.

According to Pertamina spokesman Hanung Budya Yukyanta, the
legislators were indeed touring the two countries, but for the
purpose of getting information from South Korean shipbuilder
Hyundai Heavy Industries, which is building two Very Large Crude
Carriers (VLCC). The spokesman added that the trips were funded
by the state and not by Pertamina.

"The visit, which started on June 13 is part of transparency in
the process to invest in the two VLCCs. It is part of the
implementation of good corporate governance," Hanung said in the
press statement.

Under former Pertamina president Baihaki Hakim, Pertamina
decided to buy two VLCCs for a total of US$130 million in 2002.
He had said that with the two tankers, Pertamina would save fuel
transportation costs by up to US$7 million a year. Furthermore,
it would provide Pertamina a stronger bargaining position in
dealing with tanker owners, who often force Pertamina to pay
steep leasing fees.

However, citing cash flow problems, the new management under
president director Ariff Nawawi, has decided to sell the two
tankers, a decision that has sparked suspicions that the new
management had hidden motives behind the planned sale, including
their alleged desire to continue enjoying kickbacks from tanker
owners.

ASHIKAGA BANK: Posts Widened Annual Losses
------------------------------------------
Ashikaga Bank has reported a net loss of JPY783bln (US$7.1bln)
in the year to last March as its liabilities outweighed its
capital by JPY679 billion, far exceeding the estimated negative
net worth figure of JPY102.3 billion given upon its
nationalization in November, the Financial Times reports.

A more meticulous assessment of Ashikaga Bank's troubled
borrowers is being fingered as the reason for the widened loss,
as it forced the bank to increase loan-loss reserves
substantially. The widened loss has also led to warnings that
the bank will need to set aside more reserves than expected
against non-performing loans.

The dominant lender in Tochigi prefecture also sees that because
of its high levels of bad debts, it will still have a negative
net worth of JPYY580 billion even if the government plan to sell
it back to the private sector in three years pushes through.

At the time of its nationalization, Ashikaga's bad debts stood
at JPY544 billion. It has since climbed by JPY190.7 billion to
JPY735 billion. Furthermore, its ratio of non-performing loans
has risen at the end of March to 20.31 percent from 13.93
percent.

Ashikaga also announced a three-year rehabilitation plan which
calls for reducing personnel by 30 percent and net profits of
JPY40.5 billion in the year to March 2007. By that time, the
bank also intends to have already trimmed down the ratio of its
non-performing loans to 6 percent.


FUJITSU LIMITED: S&P Upgrades Credit Rating
-------------------------------------------
U.S. credit-rating agency Standard & Poor's said Friday it has
revised upward the outlook of its BB-plus long-term corporate
credit rating on Fujitsu Ltd to stable from negative, Kyodo News
relates.

A recovery in the company's profitability and cash flow,
supported by progress in business restructuring in its
electronic devices and platform operations is reflected in the
revised rating, S & P said.


KYUSHU INDUSTRIAL: Incurs JPY1.1B Loss
--------------------------------------
Troubled bus operator Kyushu Industrial Transportation Co
reported on Friday that in the business year that ended March
31, it has incurred a net loss of JPY1.1 billion, Kyodo News
reports.

However, the company said it registered a pretax profit of
JPY200 million, 46.5% more than projected in its revival plan.

This is the first time Kyushu Industrial Transportation
announced an earnings report since the state-backed Industrial
Revitalization Corp of Japan decided to rescue the bus firm in
April 2003.


MITSUBISHI MOTORS: Police Raid Ex-Head's Home
---------------------------------------------
Police on Monday raided the home of the former president of
Mitsubishi Motors Corp., who was arrested last week along with
five other executives on suspicion of hiding auto defects.

According to a Dow Jones report, the home of former Mitsubishi
Motors Corp. (7211.TO) president Katsuhiko Kawasoe in Nagoya,
central Japan, was searched by police for further evidence that
would pin him on charges of professional negligence that has
resulted in a fatal accident involving a Mitsubishi truck in
Yamaguchi Prefecture, western Japan, in 2002.


MITSUBISHI MOTORS: Reviewing Revival Plan
-----------------------------------------
Less than a month after announcing its business revival plan,
troubled automaker Mitsubishi Motors Corp. (MMC) has begun
reviewing its plan, as the company has observed consumers have
been shying away from buying its cars following controversial
revelations about the company, relates Kyodo News, citing
sources within the company.

Company sources said that the review could include a downward
revision of sales targets in Japan, which may be announced after
MMC's general meeting on June 29.


MITSUBISHI MOTORS: No Cuts In Domestic Sales Target
---------------------------------------------------
Despite the severity of its domestic sales conditions, troubled
automaker Mitsubishi Motors Corp. (7211.TO) said Monday it has
no plans of cutting its sales target for Japan, contrary to a
Nihon Keizai report over the weekend, relates Dow Jones.

The MMC statement was in response to the local business daily's
report that its domestic sales target for the current fiscal
year will be reduced from 300,000 vehicles to 220,000, and that
the ailing automaker will also slash 11,000 jobs from the end of
the fiscal year through March 2007.

An MMC spokesman denied the reported job and sales target cuts,
but suggested the firm may need to take further restructuring
steps to revive its fortunes.

Mitsubishi Motor's domestic sales fell 56% in May from a year
earlier after the firm's image took a beating from a series of
recalls at Mitsubishi Fuso Truck & Bus Corp, which was spun off
from Mitsubishi Motors last year. The automaker's image was
further tainted after its admission earlier this month that it
had secretly fixed 26 types of defects in its vehicles without
recalling them, despite being required by law to do so. To top
everything off, former president Katsuhiko Kawasoe was arrested
Thursday for his alleged failure to report a clutch defect
believed to have caused an accident that killed a 39-year-old
driver in 2002.


MITSUBISHI MOTORS: Faces Fine For Cover-up
------------------------------------------
Mitsubishi Motors Corp. (MMC) could face a fine of up to
JPY200,000 after Japan's transport ministry asked the Tokyo
District Court to fine the troubled automaker for its failure to
recall trucks to fix a clutch defect that led to the death of a
39-year-old driver in Yamaguchi, western Japan, in 2002, AFX-
ASIA reveals.

The JPY200,000 yen maximum fine was the penalty in force in
early 1996, which the ministry alleges was the time the carmaker
already knew that the defect could cause serious accidents but
failed to take any action.

Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus, spun off from Mitsubishi Motors
in 2003, recalled 180,000 units only last month to repair the
defective clutch system.


UFJ BANK: Mulls Pay Cuts For All Employees
------------------------------------------
In its bid to increase financial resources for the disposal of
bad loans, UFJ Bank is studying an option to slash the wages of
all its personnel, Kyodo News relates, citing a report by local
daily Asahi Shimbun.

A core unit of UFJ Holdings Inc., UFJ bank is set to discuss the
matter in its upcoming talks with its labor union. Earlier, the
bank has already decided to slash summer bonuses for employees
by 20 percent.


UFJ GROUP: To Slash Executives' Pay by 50%
------------------------------------------
To reflect their responsibility for incurring a JPY400 billion
net loss for the UFJ Group in fiscal 2003, the top executives of
the banking group are in for a 50 percent cut in their pay from
July through September, reveals Bloomberg, citing a report by
Nikkei English News.

Without citing sources, Nikkei reported that the pay cut will
affect all executives above the corporate officer level at UFJ
Holdings, UFJ Bank and UFJ Trust Bank. It added that directors'
compensation will also be cut by as much as 30 percent after
September.

The UFJ Group, which would elect a new management team after the
shareholders' meeting June 25, also won't pay common stock
dividends in fiscal 2003, Nikkei reported. UFJ is Japan's
fourth-largest lender by assets.


UFJ HOLDINGS: Sumitomo Finalizing Units' Purchase
-------------------------------------------------
Negotiations for the acquisition by Sumitomo Trust & Banking Co.
(8307.TO) of two asset management subsidiaries of UFJ Holdings
are already in its final stage, revealed Dow Jones Saturday,
quoting Kyodo News.

The purchase amount for UFJ Partners Asset Management Co. and
UFJ Asset Management Co., which will be decided by July, could
reach tens of billions of yen, Kyodo News quotes an Asahi
Shimbun report as saying.

According to the local business daily, Sumitomo and UFJ have
studied the option of transferring business rights of UFJ
Partners and UFJ Asset Management to STB Asset Management Co., a
Sumitomo Trust subsidiary. The transfer, the Asahi report said,
would turn STB Asset into an asset management company with a
total of almost Y2 trillion in operating assets.

The Sumitomo Trust unit will sell investment trust products
through a branch network of UFJ Bank, a core unit of UFJ
Holdings Inc., the local daily said.

If the sale is successful, it is expected to strengthen Sumitomo
Trust's operations, while UFJ would be able to raise money
needed to speed up its bad-loan cleanup.

HYNIX SEMICONDUCTOR: Signs Nonmemory Sale Deal With Citigroup
-------------------------------------------------------------
In a statement, Korean memory-chip maker Hynix Semiconductor
Inc. announced it has inked a KRW954.3 billion (US$820.3
million) business-transfer agreement for its system integrated
circuit business with System Semiconductor Ltd., a newly formed

CVC Asia Pacific Ltd., reports The Korea Herald.

The sale, which was approved by Hynix's creditor banks earlier
this month, will be voted on by the company's shareholders in a
meeting set for July.

Proceeds from the sale will help the Icheon, South Korea-
based Hynix to cut its KRW4.2 trillion debt and keep up with
larger memory-chip producers Samsung Electronics Co. and Micron
Technology Inc. on spending. Analysts also said the cash raised
from the sale will also help Hynix finance a new chip plant in
China.

BAYAN TELECOMMUNICATIONS: Projects 12% Increase In Revenues  
-----------------------------------------------------------
Data services growth is seen to boost Bayan Telecommunications
Inc.'s (BayanTel) revenue this year by 12 percent to about
PhP5.7 billion, according to The Philippine Star on Monday.

BayanTel chief finance officer Gary Olivar said that the telco's
projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA) in 2004 would reach PhP2.5 billion.

"So far, we have exceeded our net revenue and EBITDA targets.
Data services now contributes close to 40 percent of the
business," Mr. Olivar said.

In the first quarter, BayanTel's subscribers increased by 25
percent or 254,000, compared to the 208,000 subscribers it
reported during the same period last year.

BayanTel's provincial markets drive the sustained growth in its
fixed line services. At present, BayanTel is the leading
provider of fixed-line services in Bicol and Eastern Visayas
(Leyte and Samar) and has a significant market share in the
Visayas and Mindanao.

BayanTel, which is under court receivership, is currently
working on a debt-restructuring program involving US$477 million
in loans.


NATIONAL POWER: PhP500Bln Debt To Be Paid Through New Taxes
-----------------------------------------------------------
The national government is compelled to raise at least PhP50
billion annually through imposition of new tax measures as it
absorbs the entire PhP500 billion debt portfolio of National
Power Corp. (Napocor), ABS-CBN News reports.

According to the finance department on Friday, the absorption of
the debt portfolio is a 150-percent increase over the amount
mandated by law. Because of this, new taxes must be imposed to
pay for the maturing obligations of Napocor in order to realize
its commitment to balance the budget by 2009.

Under the Electric Power Industry Reform Act (EPIRA), the
government is obligated to absorb PhP200 billion of Napocor's
debts, but the firm's debt load has ballooned the past three
years since the law was passed, Finance Secretary Juanita
Amatong said. Ms. Amatong added that the bulk of proceeds from
new proposed taxes the government wants to levy would be set
aside to pay off Napocor's obligations.

"The power sector is the biggest problem," Ms. Amatong said. "We
will assume [the debt] all at once, and we can only pay it
through tax measures."

During an economic manager's meeting on Thursday at the Bangko
Sentral ng Pilipinas (Philippine Central Bank), a proposal to
shift the tax computation was brought up. The plan calls for the
Department of Finance (DOF) to impose a uniform 10 percent tax
on individual and corporate taxpayers' gross income instead of
the current practice of levying net income.

The plan threatens to hike the Philippines' corporate income tax
rate, one of the highest in the Asia-Pacific region, and could
dampen foreign investor confidence in the country, which already
remains at low levels, the report says.

Another mode being considered is to reduce the tax holiday
enjoyed by foreign investments as well as the proposal to levy
text messages.

According to Ms. Amatong, the blame should rest solely with the
government since it failed to provide Napocor with enough
capital to set up its power plants and transmission facilities,
the main reason why it had to resort to acquire funds through
debt.


NEGROS NAVIGATION: SEC Dares Management Show Proof or Fine Stays
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has required Negros
Navigation Co. Inc. (Nenaco) to show proof that its third-
quarter report did not contain any misrepresentation, The
Philippine Star said Monday.

The SEC had earlier levied a PHP75,000 fine on Nenaco on
suspicion the company engaged in "window-dressing." Nenaco has
appealed the fine, but the regulator won't lift the penalty
unless the company disproves its findings. The preliminary
results of the audit conducted by the SEC shows the company may
have engaged in misrepresentation, SEC general accountant
Roberto Manabat said.  

"In their third quarter report filed with the SEC, they painted
a rosy picture, but after a few months, they filed a petition
for suspension of debt payments and corporate rehabilitation,"
notes Mr. Manabat in an interview with The Philippine Star.

Nenaco, in a statement, refutes the SEC findings, adding it
fully discloses its financial records as required by the
relevant regulatory agencies in accordance with the highest
accounting standards.

Tsuneishi Heavy Industries, which is still owed by Nenaco for
dry-docking services and ship repairs rendered in 2002, claims
Nenaco's 3rd-quarter results do not reflect its real financial
condition.  In fact, Nenaco has many unpaid accounts with
suppliers including fuel companies and that its purchases are
placed on a cash-on-delivery basis.

Earlier Nenaco President Conrado A. Carballo submitted a letter
to SEC which states that, at the time it submitted its third-
quarter report for 2003, it was not aware of anything that needs
to be disclosed according to the SEC's Securities Regulation
Code.  Under this code, all listed corporation are compelled to
disclose any known trend, event or uncertainty that might
adversely affect their financial condition.

Mr. Manabat told The Philippine Star he will make the necessary
recommendation as to what course of action to take against
Nenaco.


PHILIPPINE AIRLINES: Targets US$880mln Debt by March 2005
---------------------------------------------------------
Philippine Airline (PAL) has earmarked US$220 million for debt
repayments this year, BusinessWorld reports.  

The paper quoted an unnamed PAL executive who said the company
hopes to bring down its debt to US$880 million by March 2005:
"We are on track with the rehab plan which is to reduce debt
gradually from its peak in 1999.  We also do prepayments at
times so we are very much with the debt reduction schedule which
means we would wipe out our obligations by 2009."

The Lucio Tan-controlled carrier borrowed US$2.2 billion from
both foreign and local creditors in 1999 as a result of an
aggressive expansion.  Since then, PAL has set aside PHP400-500
million of its operational profit to finance its obligations. At
present, PAL's total debt amounts to US$1.1 billion.


PHILIPPINE BANK: Issues Clarification To News Article
-----------------------------------------------------
Philippine Bank of Communications issues to the Philippine Stock
Exchange clarification to the news article entitled "PBCom
repays PhP3 billion loan to BSP" published in the June 11, 2004
issue of Today.  The article reported that "(t)he Philippine
Bank of Communications (PBCom) paid off some PhP3 billion in
emergency loans last week as it continued to recover deposits
lost during a massive bank run suffered late last.

According to sources, PBCom made the payment to the Bangko
Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), which, together with the Philippine
Deposit Insurance Corp., came to its assistance when the
withdrawals started.  BSP officials confirmed that the
obligation was settled last week ahead of the scheduled
repayment date.

PBCom availed of the loan in November last year and paid an
interest rate equal to the prevailing Treasury-bill rate for the
PhP3-billion loan.

In relation thereto, Philippine Bank of Communications (PBC or
the Bank), in a letter to the Exchange dated June 11, 2004,
disclosed that:

"The company would like to confirm that PBCom had prepaid the
PhP3 billion in Special Liquidity Facility from the Bangko
Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) well ahead of the scheduled repayment
date.

PBCom tapped the BSP's Special Liquidity Facility last year in
view of some withdrawals experienced as a result of unfounded
rumors of a perceived rift between the Bank's major
shareholders.  Contrary to the inaccurate reports on the rift
that appeared in various news columns then, the major
shareholders are united in their commitment to strengthen the
Bank to ensure sustained growth and profitability.  This
commitment was epitomized by the infusion of PhP3 billion in
additional capital last March 2004 bringing the Bank's capital
to over PhP9 billion and its capital adequacy ratio to around 23
percent, well above the 10 percent minimum required.

The major shareholders' unequivocal commitment and the
expression of PBCom, during the withdrawals last year, have also
strengthened depositors' confidence in the Bank.  From year-end
2003 PBCom has already grown its deposit base by PhP2.3 billion
thus enabling the Bank to repay the BSP ahead of the end-2004
repayment date.

MDX PUBLIC: Issues Clarification Of 2004 1Q Financial Statement  
---------------------------------------------------------------
As the auditor did not express any opinion on the 1st quarter
financial statements and consolidated financial statements of
MDX PCL and its subsidiary, MDX PCL, the company clarifies that:

(1) Liabilities shown in MDX's financial statements and MDX and
its subsidiaries' consolidated financial statements are higher
than its assets, together with a high level of deficit.  All
these factors cause concern about the company's continued
operation. The financial statements are, then, prepared on going
concern basis.

MDX is under implementation of Rehabilitation Plan. After
completion of the Plan, MDX will have roughly about 16.43
percent of its principal liabilities left while its paid-up
capital will increase to TBH4,756.30 million.  Furthermore, part
of its deficit will be cleared off.

(2) Financial statements of one associated company incorporated
by equity method in MDX's financial statements were not reviewed
by any other auditors.
      
The reason is that the associated company is a foreign company
which is not listed in the Stock Exchange of Thailand. So, it is
not obliged to prepare quarterly financial statements as a
listed company. Furthermore, MDX cannot participate in
management activities due to its limited shareholding.

Due to the above factors, the auditor is then unable to express
any opinion on the financial statements and consolidated
financial statements of MDX and its subsidiaries. However, MDX
has already disclosed all sufficient information in its notes of
financial statements.
        
Furthermore, the main factors that has caused the operation
result of the 1st quarter of 2004 to differ more than 20 percent
from those in 2003 is that in Q1 of 2004, MDX has higher level
of expenses. This came from recording of tax and penalty
accessed by the Revenue Department as expenses for a total
amount of TBH224 millions and loss from transfer of shares for
debt settlement according to the Rehabilitation Plan for THB64
millions.

Moreover, there are some adjustments of interest expenses using
the same amount as the receivers' orders. Thus, the increasing
of expenses that is higher than that of the revenues leads to
the increasing of loss.
      
Please be informed accordingly.
Yours sincerely,
(Songsri Kalyanamitr)
Director of Wittayu Planner Co., Ltd.
On behalf of the Plan Administrator of MDX Pcl.

Tuesday's edition of the TCR-Asia Pacific delivers a list of
indicative prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well
below par.  Prices are obtained by TCR-AP editors from a
Variety of outside sources during the prior week we think are
reliable.  Those sources may not, however, be complete or
accurate.  The Tuesday Bond Pricing table is compiled on the
Saturday prior to publication.  Prices reported are not intended
to reflect actual trades.  Prices for actual trades are probably
different.  Our objective is to share information, not make
markets in publicly traded securities. Nothing in the TCR-AP
constitutes an offer Or solicitation to buy or sell any security
of any kind.  It is likely that some entity affiliated with a
TCR editor holds some position in the issuers' public debt and
equity securities about which we report.
