GREENTOWN CHINA: S&P Cuts Corp. Credit Rating to B-; Outlook Neg.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its long-term
corporate credit rating on China-based property developer
Greentown China Holdings Ltd. to 'B-' from 'B'. The outlook is
negative. "At the same time, we lowered the issue rating on the
company's outstanding senior unsecured notes to 'CCC+' from 'B-'.
We also lowered the Greater China credit scale rating on
Greentown to 'cnB-' from 'cnB+' and that on the outstanding
senior unsecured notes to 'cnCCC+' from 'cnB'," S&P said.

"We lowered the rating because we expect Greentown's liquidity to
remain weak for the next 12 months due to the company's
significant short-term debt, substantial construction costs, and
weak property sales. We believe Greentown's recent sales of a
part of its land bank highlights the pressure on the company's
liquidity. Weakening prices stemming from a property market
downturn in China will likely weaken Greentown's profitability in
the next one to two years. We also expect the company's capital
structure to remain highly leveraged during this time due to the
significant funding required to support its large-scale
construction," S&P said.

"Greentown's contract sales are likely to remain weak in the next
six to 12 months, in our view," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Christopher Lee. "The company has high concentration in
cities with purchase restrictions and is focused on the high-end
residential property market, which is more affected by the
government's policy tightening and subdued investment demand."

"We expect Greentown to continue to sell its projects to boost
liquidity in 2012. Over the past two months, the company has RMB4
billion from five such sales. Nevertheless, the timing and
valuation of such sales could be highly uncertain, especially
when Greentown might need funds the most. The company's financial
risk profile will likely remain highly leveraged, in our opinion,
despite a significant increase in revenue in 2011-2012 due to
presales in earlier years," S&P said.

Greentown's good reputation in product quality, firm market
position for the rating, and large land bank at favorable
locations temper these weaknesses.

"Greentown's liquidity is 'weak', as defined in our criteria. Its
liquidity sources will be insufficient to cover uses in 2012. The
company has about RMB12 billion-RMB 14 billion in short-term
debts due in 2012, including trust financing. In addition, we
estimate RMB16 billion-RMB 17 billion in construction costs in
2012. Greentown may cut its construction expense to some degree
if sales remain weak, but this will have a limited benefit for
liquidity, in our assessment," S&P said.

"The negative outlook reflects our expectations that Greentown's
financial performance will remain weak due to its significant
short-term debt maturities and weak sales," said Mr. Lee. Given
Greentown's exposure to the high-end property market, the
company's property sales are likely to soften in 2012 due
to government policies to rein in investment demand.

"We may lower the rating if Greentown cannot meet its short-term
financial or operational obligations. Conversely, we could revise
the outlook to stable if the company's financial performance
stabilizes and its liquidity position improves," S&P said.


WINSAY COKING: Fitch Says Allegations Won't Affect Liquidity
------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings says that allegations made by Jonestown Research
against Winsway Coking Coal Holdings Limited (Winsway,
'BB'/Stable) do not immediately affect the company's liquidity or
broader credit profile.

Fitch notes that allegations by short sellers on Chinese
companies in the past, whether proven or otherwise, have resulted
in at least a temporary curtailment in access to capital markets.
The impact of allegations such as these are discussed in detail
in Fitch's commentary of 29 September 2011 entitled
"Whistleblowing Short Sellers a Double-Edged Sword".

Winsway has begun refuting the allegations made by Jonestown
Research, which relate to the valuation of inventory and related
party transactions.  Fitch however believes that Winsway does not
need to access capital markets in the near term as it has
sufficient liquidity.  As of June 30, 2011, Winsway had HKD5.76
billion cash at hand while the current portion of loans was
HKD572 million.  This balance, along with cash generated from
operations, should be sufficient to meet capex needs and the
proposed acquisition of a 60% stake in Grand Cache Coal Co. Ltd.

ALCON BIOSCIENCES: CRISIL Puts 'CRISIL B+' Rating on INR21MM Loan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL B+/Stable/CRISIL A4' ratings to
the bank facilities of Alcon Biosciences Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                         Ratings
   ----------                         -------
   INR21.0 Million Rupee Term Loan    CRISIL B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR105.0 Million Line of Credit    CRISIL B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR20.0 Million Letter of Credit   CRISIL A4 (Assigned)
   INR2.5 Million Bank Guarantee      CRISIL A4 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect the company's average financial risk profile
constrained by the high gearing of one of its group companies,
Swati Spentose Pvt Ltd, wherein corporate guarantee has been
provided by Alcon. The rating further highlights Alcon's working-
capital-intensive operations and modest scale of operations.
These rating weaknesses are partially offset by the extensive
experience of Alcon's promoters in the pharmaceuticals industry.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that Alcon will continue to benefit over the
medium term from its established relationships with its customers
and suppliers, resulting in healthy growth in its revenues. The
outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the company registers
significant growth in its revenues while it maintains its
profitability. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to
'Negative' if Alcon reports a reduced operating margin, or sharp
increase in its gearing because of large debt-funded capital
expenditure or increase in the working capital intensity of its
operations.

                      About Alcon Biosciences

Alcon was set up in 1998 by the late Mr. N P Jajodia and his son
Mr. Vishal Jajodia. The promoters had purchased a running plant
in a distress sale from Saraswat Bank. Prior to this, Mr. N P
Jajodia traded in bulk drugs since 1970 under the name of Lark.
Alcon manufactures and trades in active pharmaceutical
ingredients at its plant in Vapi (Gujarat). It caters primarily
to the anesthetic, veterinary, anti-allopathy, and other
therauptic segments.

Alcon reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR6.5 million on net
sales of INR380.3 million for 2010-11 (refers to financial year,
April 1 to March 31), against a PAT of INR2.0 million on net
sales of INR212.2 million for 2009-10.


AMBICA STEELS: Fitch Holds Rating on Two Bank Facilities at Low-B
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has revised India-based Ambica Steels Limited's
Outlook to Positive from Stable.  Its National Long-Term rating
has been affirmed at 'Fitch BB+(ind)'.

The Outlook revision reflects ASL's improved financial
performance in FY11 (end-March 2011) and H1FY12.  Despite a
decline in sales volume by 7.37% yoy to 45,967 tonnes in FY11,
revenues increased by 21% yoy to INR3,998.88m due to stronger
revenue per tonne for its products, supported by a high value-
added product mix.  The blended net revenue per tonne increased
by 30% yoy to INR86,134 in FY11.

EBITDA margin also improved marginally to 6.8% in FY11 (FY10:
6.6%), as increased input costs were passed on to its customers.
This along with a slight reduction in debt level to INR814.43m in
FY11 from INR816.33m in FY10 led to financial leverage (total
adjusted net debt/operating EBITDA) improving to 2.98x from
3.75x, which further improved to 1.95x (annualised) at 30
September 2011.  ASL's exports also increased to INR1,211m in
FY11 and was close to its previous exports peak of INR1,265m,
after declining by 70% yoy in FY10 due to the economic slowdown
and destocking by various steel majors.

The ratings are underpinned by ASL's experienced founders
(promoters) and a diversified customer base.  The ratings also
factor in the highly working capital intensive nature of ASL's
business and the volatility in input costs.

ASL is implementing INR276m capex to enhance the capacity of its
bright steel bar plant to 24,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) from the
existing 7,200tpa by setting up a combined peeling line and
automating various operations.  The project has been delayed from
October 2011 to July 2012 due to the delays on the part of
equipment supplier.  Some facilities are expected to be completed
by end-March 2012.  The project has achieved financial closure
and is being funded by a debt to equity ratio of 3:1. Post
completion of the capex, Fitch expects ASL's revenue and
profitability to improve due to a better product mix comprising
high-value added products.

Positive rating actions may result from a significant improvement
in the ASL's profitability resulting in financial leverage
sustaining below 3.5x from FY12 onwards.  Conversely, a decline
in profitability and financial leverage exceeding 3.5x may result
in the revision of Outlook back to Stable.

ASL is a closely held company engaged in the manufacturing of
stainless steel products like ingots, billets, bright bars, round
bars and flats.  In H1FY12, it recorded net revenue of
INR2,508.9m with an EBITDA margin of 7%.

ASL's bank facilities have also been affirmed as follows:

  -- INR344.58 million term loans (enhanced from INR286.1m):
     affirmed at 'Fitch BB+(ind)'

  -- INR650.05 million fund-based working capital limits
     (enhanced from INR500m): affirmed at 'Fitch BB+(ind)'

  -- INR1,249.95 million non-fund based working capital limits
     (enhanced from INR1,000m): affirmed at 'Fitch A4+(ind)'


CORE CHEMICALS: CRISIL Rates INR70MM Loan at 'CRISIL BB'
--------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL BB/Stable/CRISIL A4+' ratings to
the bank facilities of Core Chemicals (Mumbai) Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                        Ratings
   ----------                        -------
   INR70 Million Cash Credit         CRISIL BB/Stable (Assigned)
   INR20 Million Bill Discounting    CRISIL A4+ (Assigned)
   INR5 Million Letter of Credit     CRISIL A4+ (Assigned)

The ratings reflect the benefits that CCMPL derives from its
promoters' extensive experience in the agricultural (agro)
chemicals industry and its established relationships with its
customers and suppliers, and the company's moderate financial
risk profile marked by moderate gearing and debt protection
measures. These ratings strengths are partially offset by CCMPL's
exposure to inherent risks in the pesticides formulation
industry, susceptibility to volatility in raw material prices,
and working-capital-intensive operations.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that CCMPL will continue to benefit over the
medium term from its promoters' industry experience and its
established customer and supplier relationships. The outlook may
be revised to 'Positive' if the company substantially improves
its scale of operations and profitability margins or if its
capital structure improves significantly, most likely because of
equity infusion by the promoteINR Conversely, the outlook may be
revised to 'Negative' if CCMPL reports a sharp decline in its
profitability most likely on account of volatility in raw
material prices, or deterioration in its financial risk profile
driven by debt funding of larger-than-expected working capital
requirements.

                       About Core Chemicals

Incorporated in 1998, CCMPL is promoted by Mr. Nandu Gupta; it
manufactures specialty surfactants, agro emulsifiers, and
adjuvants for the pesticides formulation industry. The company
has one manufacturing unit at Badlapur in Mumbai (Maharashtra)
with capacity of around 13,000 tonnes per annum. In addition,
CCMPL has a centralised research and development facility at
Vasai (Maharashtra) which is equipped with the latest third-
generation instruments.

CCMPL reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR9.7 million on net
sales of INR439.8 million for 2010-11 (refers to financial year,
April 1 to March 31), as against a PAT of INR7.6 million on net
sales of INR334.9 million for 2009-10.


CTRLS Datacenters: High Financial Leverages Cue Fitch BB- Rating
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed India-based CtrlS Datacenters
Limited's National Long-Term rating at 'Fitch BB-(ind)'.  The
Outlook is Stable.  CtrlS's INR2,663m term loan facilities have
been affirmed at 'Fitch BB-(ind)'.

The ratings continue to reflect CtrlS's high financial leverage
(debt/EBITDA: 21.61x in FY11 (end-March 2011), FY10: 13.10x), due
to its ongoing capex programme to set up datacenters in Delhi and
Mumbai (national project).  However, Fitch expects the leverage
to fall from current levels with the completion of the project.
Some comfort is drawn from the fact that the company has already
tied up customers for 50% of the Mumbai datacenter and is in
final stages of tying up the remaining space.

The ratings also reflect CtrlS's equity requirement of INR500m
for project completion, as the debt has already been completely
drawn.  While the Mumbai datacenter was completed in December
2011, the Delhi datacenter is scheduled to be completed in
Q2FY13.

Negative rating action may result from any delay in raising
equity for the ongoing capex and an inability to achieve
projected utilisation levels and EBITDA margins leading to the
debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) falling below 1.15x on a
sustained basis.  Conversely, achievement of expected utilisation
levels, which would lead to a cash flow visibility for achieving
a DSCR of above 1.5x and a debt/EBITDA of below 4x on a sustained
basis, would result in positive rating action.

Established in 2007, CtrlS operates a 26,010 sq.ft. capacity of
tier IV datacenter space, located in Hyderabad.  In FY11, it
reported an operating income of INR302m (FY10: INR183m), an
operating EBITDA of INR56m (INR29m) and a net income of INR9m
(INR7m).  At FYE11, the company had book debt of INR1,210m (FY10:
INR380m).  The scope of the national project has been reduced to
41,791 sq.ft. of Tier IV datacenter space across Delhi and Mumbai
from 76,546 sq.ft. across four cities (Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore
and Chennai), based on demand seen by management.  This has led
to a reduction in the project cost to INR2.39bn from INR3.99bn
and in the project debt to INR1.31bn from INR2.5bn.  The project
debt repayment will start only in FY12-FY13.


ECONOMY RUBBER: CRISIL Rates INR16.4MM Loan at 'CRISIL B'
---------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL B/Stable/CRISIL A4' ratings to
the bank facilities of Economy Rubber Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                        Ratings
   ----------                        -------
   INR16.4 Million Cash Credit       CRISIL B/Stable (Assigned)
   INR40 Million Letter of Credit    CRISIL A4 (Assigned)
   INR0.6 Million Bank Guarantee     CRISIL A4 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect ERPL's modest scale of operations and modest
financial risk profile marked by modest networth level and
subdued debt protection indicators, and susceptibility to
volatility in prices of synthetic rubber and foreign exchange
rates. These rating weaknesses are partially offset by ERPL's
promoters' extensive experience in the rubber trading industry
and established relationships with customeINR

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that ERPL will benefit over the medium term from
its promoters' extensive industry experience and established
relationships with customeINR The outlook may be revised to
'Positive' if ERPL reports higher-than-expected revenues and
profitability, while improving its capital structure and debt
protection indicatoINR Conversely, the outlook may be revised to
'Negative' in case of deterioration in the company's revenues and
operating margins, adversely impacting its financial risk
profile.

EPARI SADASHIV: CRISIL Places 'CRISIL BB' Rating on INR150MM Loan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL BB/Stable' rating to the long-
term bank facilities of Epari Sadashiv Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                        Ratings
   ----------                        -------
   INR150 Million Cash Credit        CRISIL BB/Stable (Assigned)
   INR160 Mil. Proposed Long-Term    CRISIL BB/Stable (Assigned)
   Bank Loan Facility

The rating reflects the extensive experience of ESPL's promoters'
in the jewellery industry and established market position in the
jewellery retail segment in Bhubaneswar. These rating strengths
are partially offset by ESPL's modest financial risk profile,
marked by moderate debt protection metrics, high total outside
liabilities to tangible net worth and a small net worth, and
susceptibility to intense competition in a fragmented industry
and to volatility in gold prices.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that ESPL will continue to benefit over the
medium term from its promoter's extensive industry experience and
established market position. The outlook may be revised to
'Positive' in case of more-than-expected growth in revenues and
profitability coupled with better working capital management,
resulting in an improved financial risk profile. Conversely, the
outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the company undertakes
large debt-funded capital expenditure over and above expected
affecting its capital structure, or its cash accruals deteriorate
sharply due to decline in operating margins or subdued sales.

                       About Epari Sadashiv

Established in 2005 by Mr. Epari Sridhar, ESPL sells gold and
diamond jewellery in Orissa. The promoter's family is into
jewellery business for nearly 8 decades. The company has two

ESPL reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR15.9 million on net
sales of INR790.4 million for 2010-11 (refers to financial year,

sales of INR696.4 million for 2009-10.


EXCELLENT MOULDERS: Fitch Puts 'BB-" Rating on INR60MM Facility
---------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned India's Excellent Moulders a National
Long-Term rating of 'Fitch BB-(ind)'.  The Outlook is stable.

The ratings reflect Excellent's moderate financial and credit
profiles, as reflected in its declining EBITDA margins of 7.78%
(FY08 (end-March 2011): 9.84%), moderate net financial leverage
(net debt/EBITDA) of 3.1x and low EBITDA interest coverage of
2.2x in FY11.  The decline in margins is due to the increasing
proportion of trading volumes in total revenues (over 50% for
FY11).  The ratings also reflect the unlimited partnership nature
of the organization, making it responsible for the liabilities of
its partners.

The ratings also factor in the partners' experience of over three
decades in the business of plastic moulding.

Positive rating guidelines include net leverage of below 3x on a
sustained basis.  Negative rating guidelines include net leverage
of above 6x on a sustained basis.

Established in 1979, Excellent Moulders is a partnership firm
engaged in the manufacturing of plastic fan parts and other
plastic packaging articles for cosmetic products and food items.
The firm is also engaged in the trading of electrical fans
manufactured by Polar Industries Limited since April 2010.
Excellent reported revenue of INR508m for FY11 (FY10: INR347.9m).

Fitch has also assigned ratings to Excellent's bank facilities as
follows:

  -- INR60m fund based limits: 'Fitch BB-(ind)'
  -- INR95m non-fund based limits: 'Fitch A4+(ind)'


HEAVY METAL: CRISIL Puts 'CRISIL B+' Rating on INR60MM Cash Loan

the bank facilities of Heavy Metal Pipe Centre.

   INR60 Million Cash Credit         CRISIL B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR10 Million Bank Guarantee      CRISIL A4 (Assigned)
   INR60 Million Letter of Credit    CRISIL A4 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect HMPC's weak financial risk profile, marked by
high ratio of total outside liabilities to tangible net worth,
and weak debt protection metrics, and large working capital
requirements. These rating weaknesses are partially offset by the
extensive industry experience of HMPC's partneINR.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that HMPC will continue to benefit over the
medium term from its partner's extensive industry experience. The
outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the firm significantly
improves its capital structure either by equity infusion or cash
accruals. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if
HMPC's financial risk profile deteriorates, most likely because
of increased debt-funded working capital, or if the firm achieves
lower-than-expected revenues and profitability.

                         About Heavy Metal

HMPC, a partnership firm based in Mumbai (Maharashtra), trades
various types of pipes and tubes, including carbon steel seamless
pipes, alloy steel pipes, and stainless steel seamless pipes. The
firm is owned and managed by Mr. Dakshesh Shah and his family

HMPC reported profit of INR4.0 million on net sales of INR342.2
million for 2010-11 (refers to financial year, April 1 to March
31), as against a reported profit of INR6.6 million on net sales
of INR334.1 million for 2009-10.


IMPERIAL GRANITES: CRISIL Puts CRISIL C Rating on INR40MM Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL C/CRISIL A4' ratings to the bank
facilities of Imperial Granites Private Limited (IGPL; part of
the Gem group). The ratings reflect IGPL's weak liquidity, which
has resulted in company delaying in servicing its unrated debt.

   Facilities                              Ratings
   ----------                              -------
   INR40 Million Cash Credit               CRISIL C (Assigned)

   INR38.5 Mil. Foreign Bill Discounting   CRISIL A4 (Assigned)
   INR10 Million Bank Guarantee            CRISIL A4 (Assigned)

The Gem group also has working-capital-intensive operations. The
rating also factor in the susceptibility of the group's operating
margin to volatility in foreign exchange rates. These rating
weaknesses are partially offset by the Gem group's moderate
financial risk profile, marked by a comfortable gearing and
moderate debt protection measures, promoters' extensive
experience in the granite industry with an established market
position.

For arriving at the ratings, CRISIL has combined the business and
financial risk profiles of IGPL, Gem Granites (GG), Gem Granites
Private Limited (GGPL), Imperial Tiles Pvt Ltd (ITPL), and Stone
Wonders (India) Ltd (SWIL), collectively referred to as the Gem
group. The consolidated approach is because all the entities are
engaged in a similar line of business, are managed by the same
promoters, and have fungible cash flows among them.

                          About the Group

GG, part of the Gem group, was set up in 1971 as a partnership
firm by Mr. R Veeramani and his family members, Mr. S R
Asaithambi, Mr. R Sekar, and Mr. S R Kumar. GG is the flagship
entity of the Gem group and is engaged in quarrying and export of
rough granite blocks, polished slabs, and monuments. The firm
operates out of its own quarries, which are located across India
and is a 100 per cent export-oriented unit deriving around 85 per
cent of its revenues from exports to around 60 countries and the
remaining 15 per cent from the domestic market. The promoters
subsequently set up a number of other entities, including GGPL,
IGPL, ITPL and SWIL that are also engaged in quarrying and
processing of granites and monuments. The promoters have other
business interests in sugar, textiles, and real estate.

The Gem group reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR70 million
on net sales of INR2.0 billion for 2010-11 (refers to financial
year, April 1 to March 31), as against a PAT of INR50.4 million
on net sales of INR2.2 billion for 2009-10.


IMPERIAL TILES: Delay in Loan Payment Cues CRISIL Junk Ratings

   INR5 Million Bank Guarantee            CRISIL D (Assigned)
   INR10 Million Letter of Credit         CRISIL D (Assigned)

The rating reflects instances of delay by ITPL in servicing its
debt; the delays have been caused by the group's weak liquidity.

The Gem group also has working-capital-intensive operations. The
rating also factor in the susceptibility of the group's operating
margin to volatility in foreign exchange rates. These rating
weaknesses are partially offset by the Gem group's moderate
financial risk profile, marked by a comfortable gearing and
moderate debt protection measures, promoters' extensive
experience in the granite industry with an established market

   INR170 Million Long-Term Loan     CRISIL BB+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR10 Million Letter of Credit    CRISIL A4+ (Assigned)

The ratings reflect the industry experience of LOPL's promoters
in the printing industry and its healthy operating efficiencies.
These rating strengths are partially offset by LOPL's moderate
scale of operations in a highly fragmented industry and highly
leveraged capital structure

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that LOPL will continue to benefit over the
medium term from its established track record in the printing
industry. The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the company
records considerable increase in revenues, while maintaining its
profitability, resulting in improvement in its financial risk
profile. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if
the company records lower-than-expected revenues and
profitability or undertakes greater-than-expected debt-funded
capital expenditure programme, resulting in deterioration in its
financial risk profile.

                        About Lovely Offset

partnership firm and private limited company in 1999 and 2006
respectively, Lovely derives its revenues from printing of

CRISIL has assigned its 'CRISIL C/CRISIL A4' ratings to the bank

The ratings reflect SWIL's weak liquidity, which has resulted in
company delaying its debt repayments in the past.

The ratings reflect VGPL's aggressive capital structure and
bunching up of fresh capacities. The ratings also factor in the
impending slowdown in the real estate sector. These rating
weaknesses are partially offset by VGPL's above-average debt
protection metrics and its strategic location.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that VGPL will benefit over the medium term from
its above-average debt protection metrics and strategic location.
The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the company improves
its capital structure more than CRISIL's expectations, leading to
improvement in its overall financial risk profile. Conversely,
the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' in case of higher-than-
expected debt-funded capital expenditure plan or significant
decline in operating margin, resulting in weakening in its debt
protection metrics.

                       About Vita Granito

Incorporated in 2006, VGPL is based in Morbi (Gujarat) and
manufactures vitrified tiles. The company has installed capacity
to manufacture 9000 boxes per day (around 42,000 tonnes per

PT ARPENI PRATAMA: Has U.S. Chapter 15 Approval
-----------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that PT Arpeni Pratama Ocean Line Tbk. won the signature
of a bankruptcy judge in New York on an order last week
recognizing a court in Indonesia as having the company's
principal insolvency proceeding.

                    About PT Arpeni Pratama

PT Arpeni Pratama Ocean Line Tbk -- http://www.apol.co.id/-- is
Indonesia's leading diversified shipping company, owning and
operating the largest fleet of Indonesian flagged dry bulk
vessels.  Arpeni operates a fleet of general-purpose specialist,
such as their tweendecker MV Alas, which is designed to transport
dry cargoes such as plywood and agricultural products.  As of
June 30, 2011, Arpeni operated 77 wholly-owned vessels and two
vessels under long term charters.

Arpeni filed for bankruptcy protection on Dec. 12, 2011, in the
U.S. to block a group of dissident note holders from torpedoing
its debt restructuring in Indonesia.  Fida Unidjaja, as PT
Arpeni's foreign representative, estimated $500 million to
$1 billion in assets and liabilities in the Chapter 15 petition
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-15691) for the company.  Judge Allan
L. Gropper oversees the Chapter 15 case.  Fida Unidjaja is
represented by Pedro A. Jimenez, Esq., and Ross Barr, Esq., at
Jones Day.

Arpeni sought U.S. court recognition of its proceeding before
the Commercial Court at the Central Jakarta District Court
as a foreign main proceeding.  PT Bank Central Asia Tbk., an
unsecured lender, commenced the Jakarta proceeding on Aug. 5,
2011, which Arpeni voluntarily joined.  On Aug. 24, 2011, the
Jakarta Court issued a temporary suspension of debt payment
decision, effectively staying actions on claims against the
Foreign Debtor for an initial period of 45 days.

Throughout the proceeding, Arpeni remained in possession of and
continued its business while it restructured its debt.

On Dec. 9, 2009, Arpeni announced an informal payment moratorium
with certain of its creditors pursuant to which Arpeni ceased
making payments of interest or principal.

The trustee under the indenture with respect to the U.S. Notes on
Sept. 6, 2011, had accelerated the U.S. Notes and demanded
performance by the Debtor of its obligations as guarantor under
the U.S. Notes Indenture.

In the Jakarta proceeding, the Debtor sought and obtained
approval of a composition plan from the requisite percentage of
its creditors participating in the plan pursuant to Indonesian
bankruptcy law.  In particular, the Composition Plan was approved
by approximately 95% of the Debtor's secured creditors and 80% of
the Debtor's unsecured creditors, in each case present and voting
at a hearing before the Indonesian Court on Nov. 1, 2011 and
holding claims that had been verified for inclusion in the
Foreign Proceeding.  As provided in the Composition Plan as
embodied in the Settlement Agreement, on Nov. 18, 2011, Arpeni
launched an exchange offer and tender offer.

JLOC XXX: Fitch Junks Rating on Three TBI Note Classes
------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded JLOC XXX Trust's trust beneficiary
interests (TBIs) due April 2014.  The transaction is a Japanese
multi-borrower type CMBS securitisation.  The rating actions are
as follows:

  -- JPY20.9bn* Class A TBIs downgraded to 'BBsf' from 'BBBsf';
     Outlook Stable

  -- JPY3.7bn* Class B TBIs downgraded to 'CCCsf' from 'BBsf';
     Recovery Estimate of 70%

  -- JPY16.6bn* Class C TBIs downgraded to 'CCsf' from 'CCCsf';
     Recovery Estimate 65%

  -- JPY20bn* Class D TBIs downgraded to 'Csf' from 'CCsf';
     Recovery Estimate 5%

*as of January 18, 2012

The downgrades reflect Fitch's downward revision on the expected
recovery amount from one of two defaulted underlying loans.  The
servicer is implementing workouts through property sales in
accordance with its business plan.  To date, the workout on one
defaulted loan has progressed steadily, while the workout on the
other, backed by hotel properties, has been slow and 16 hotels
remain in the portfolio.  According to the latest business plan
for the latter loan as of end-December 2011, the servicer may
reduce the targeted sales values on seven of the 16 hotels in the
near term, reflecting stagnant sales activity throughout 2011.
As a result Fitch has revised down its valuation on seven hotels,
resulting in today's downgrade.

Under the structure of the transaction, the TBIs' principal is
repaid on a sequential basis in accordance with allocated TBI
principal amounts.  These principal amounts are set on a loan-by-
loan basis, when the underlying loan is repaid with proceeds from
property sales.  To date, four underlying loans have been paid in
full, and proceeds have been applied to the repayment of multiple
TBI classes in accordance with the allocated amount of the
underlying loans.

This transaction was originally a securitisation of five TMK
(Tokutei Mokuteki Kaisha) specified bonds and a senior portion
TBI of a satellite trust, backed by a specified bond, and
ultimately backed by a total of 125 properties located throughout
Japan.  The transaction is currently backed by 20 properties and
sales proceeds.

-------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
approved Nortel Networks' motion to enter into certain agreements
to facilitate the wind-down of Nortel Networks Japan (aka Nortel
Networks Kabushiki Kaisha).

According to the Debtors, "Historically, NN Japan engaged in the
sale and marketing of Nortel telecommunications equipment in
Japan; however, it has ceased all active operations and is in the
process of preparing a voluntary solvent liquidation of its
assets. After accounting for all of its liabilities, obligations,
and liquidation costs, NN Japan anticipates that it will have a
significant surplus cash balance, which it is willing to
repatriate to NNI."

$900 million stalking horse bid by Google Inc. at an auction.
The deal closed in July 2011.

Nortel Networks has filed a proposed plan of liquidation in the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court.  The Plan generally provides for full
payment on secured claims with other distributions going in
accordance with the priorities in bankruptcy law.


OLYMPUS CORP: Avoids Delisting from Tokyo Bourse; Fined
-------------------------------------------------------
Hiroko Tabuchi at The New York Times reports that the Tokyo Stock
Exchange said Friday that it would allow Olympus to remain listed
after paying a small fine for its false accounting.

The TSE said that the fraud at Olympus had been "the sole work of
a number of participants" and that their actions "had no direct
relation to the core business," according to the report.  The
exchange "cannot deem that investor judgment was considerably
distorted to the extent of warranting delisting," the bourse
said.

According to the report, Olympus will be fined JPY10 million, or
US$130,000, the maximum penalty set by the exchange.  The company
will also be placed on a "security on alert" list and will be
required to report to the Tokyo exchange, over a period of three
years, ways that it is improving its corporate governance, the
report relays.

The news agency relates that Olympus said it "solemnly accepted"
the Tokyo exchange's decision and promised to improve its
commitment to corporate governance.  "We understand that this
decision is based on the view that there is a strong need for us
to improve our internal supervision," it said.

                    Securities Investment Scandal

The Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific reported on Nov. 9,
2011, that Block & Leviton LLP, a Boston-based law firm
representing investors seeking to recover money lost due to
investment fraud, said it is investigating possible securities
fraud claims involving Olympus Corp.

On Oct. 14, 2011, Olympus's Board of Directors fired the
Company's then-President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael
Woodford, after Mr. Woodford attempted to force an inquiry into
Olympus's acquisition of British medical device maker Gyrus in
2008.  At issue were the $687.0 million in advisory fees paid to
a relatively obscure financial firm in relation to the
acquisition.  The fees were approximately one-third of the
$2.0 billion acquisition price, which is almost 30 times higher
than normal.

On Nov. 8, 2011, the Company admitted to an accounting cover-up,
stating that the advisory fees paid in connection with the Gyrus
deal and other acquisitions were used to hide steep investment
losses that began in approximately 1990.  Speaking at a press
conference, the Company's President, Shuichi Takayama, confessed
that "[w]e have conducted extremely improper accounting" and that
"[o]ur previous statements were in error."

The Company's admission, released just prior to the opening of
trading on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, where Olympus's common stock
is traded, sent shares spiraling downward by 29% over the prior
day's close to JPY734 (or $9.40).  The Company's American
Depository Receipts also plummeted on the news, losing 31%
compared to the prior day's close of $13.72.  Since mid-October
when Mr. Woodward's allegations first surfaced, the Company's
stock has lost approximately 70% of its market value.

Amidst the growing accounting scandal that could be one of the
largest in corporate history, the TSE has indicated that the
Company's shares could be de-listed.  In addition, the Japanese
Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission is said to be
investigating along with the U.S. Federal Bureau of
Investigation, and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

OLYMPUS CORP: Lawyers to Ask Shareholder to Sue Firm Over Losses
----------------------------------------------------------------
According to Reuters, The Nikkei business daily said that a group
of about 30 consumer affairs lawyers will ask Olympus Corp
shareholders to sue the company and its former executives for
damages from a long-running cover-up of investment losses.

The legal team is also considering action against the scandal-hit
camera and endoscope maker's auditing firms, the daily said, and
added that the lawsuits would be filed this spring, Reuters
relays.

The Nikkei said the lawyers will launch a website to seek
shareholder plaintiffs and hold information sessions, according
to Reuters.

A key figure in the legal team, which was formed on Friday, is
Chohei Yonekawa, head of the team that represented Livedoor
shareholders pursuing damages after the Internet company's
accounting scandal, the business newspaper, as cited by Reuters,
said.

TOKYO ELECTRIC: May Allow Outside Directors to Run Management
-------------------------------------------------------------
Kyodo News reports that sources said Tokyo Electric Power Co. may
have to let outside directors oversee its management if the
beleaguered utility is effectively nationalized.

Discussions are also under way to set the size of the public
bailout for the operator of the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear
plant at around JPY1 trillion, sources told Kyodo.

The news agency says the public fund injection for TEPCO is
likely to result in the resignation of its top officials.
President Toshio Nishizawa is likely to be replaced by an
insider, while Chairman Tsunehisa Katsumata may be replaced by
someone from outside TEPCO, the sources, as cited by Kyodo, said.

By installing business management experts at TEPCO, the
government aims to keep the utility under close scrutiny as it
distributes trillions of yen in compensation to victims of the
Fukushima nuclear disaster and calculates the cost of scrapping
the ruined reactors at the plant, according to the report.

TEPCO is likely to become insolvent without a public fund
injection, Kyodo says.  Its fuel costs have also risen due to
increased thermal power generation while its nuclear reactors
remain offline, the report notes.

A state-backed entity providing financial support to TEPCO is
seeking to acquire more than two-thirds of TEPCO's shares with
voting rights by this summer, according to Kyodo.

How many shares the Nuclear Damage Liability Facilitation Fund
acquire could be a difficult issue to settle, as some TEPCO
officials are reluctant to cede full control of the company,
Kyodo notes.

                       About Tokyo Electric

Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco) is the largest electric
power company in Japan and the largest privately owned electric
utility in the world.  Tepco supplies electricity to meet the
increasingly diversified and sophisticated demands of its over
28.09 million customers in the metropolitan Tokyo, which is the
political, economic, and cultural center of Japan, and eight
surrounding prefectures.

Bloomberg News said the utility is battling radiation leaks at
the Fukushima Dai-Ichi power plant north of Tokyo after a
March 11 earthquake and tsunami knocked out its cooling systems,
causing the biggest atomic accident in 25 years.  More than
50,000 households were forced to evacuate and Bank of America
Corp.'s Merrill Lynch estimates TEPCO may face compensation
claims of as much as JPY11 trillion (US$135 billion).

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific on
Aug. 11, 2011, Moody's Japan K.K. confirmed the ratings of Tokyo
Electric Power Co.  The ratings confirmed include its senior
secured rating of Ba2, long-term issuer rating of B1, and
Corporate Family Rating of Ba3.  The ratings outlook is negative.


* Fitch Downgrades 30 Japanese CMBS Trances in 4th Quarter 2011
---------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings said that 30 Japanese CMBS tranches were downgraded
in Q411, while 79 were affirmed and five were upgraded.  All 12
Fitch-rated Japanese RMBS tranches reviewed during the quarter
were affirmed.

Of the 30 downgrades in Q411, 18 involved downgrades from 'CCCsf'
or lower ratings due to the progress of workouts.

"The amount generated from property sales -- the main workout
strategy initiated by servicers -- increased substantially
compared with Q311, resulting in continued principal repayments,"
said Naoki Saito, Director in Fitch's Japanese Structured Finance
team.  "However, even if sales values are in line with Fitch's
expectations, property sales may increase the possibility of
principal loss on lowly rated tranches, which can lead to
negative rating actions, since such tranches are typically more
vulnerable to small deviations of sale prices from Fitch values."

Fitch expects investment-grade CMBS tranches to experience
increases in credit enhancement as workouts progress, because
almost all transactions apply a sequential payment waterfall for
recoveries from defaulted loans.

In Q411, Fitch determined that a distressed debt exchange (DDE)
had occurred on class D-1 through class I of L-JAC Three Trust.
The DDE resulted from the restructuring of the transaction which
involved a maturity extension from the original final maturity
and a reduction in coupon for the lower rated classes.  The
ratings
on the affected classes were downgraded to 'Dsf' and were
simultaneously withdrawn due to a lack of investor interest.  The
ratings on the class A to C trust beneficiary interest (TBIs) of
the transaction were affirmed and these TBIs were paid in full
shortly thereafter.

Other than L-JAC Three Trust, two Japanese CMBS transactions were
paid in full in Q411 via refinancing of the underlying loans or
sale of collateral properties.

Fitch affirmed its ratings on 12 tranches from five Japanese RMBS
transactions reviewed in the quarter.  Outlooks were revised to
Negative from Stable on two tranches in one transaction, Hallmark
Trust Series 2008-1, to reflect the worse than expected default
performance to date and the susceptibility of the rated BIs to
any future asset performance deterioration.  The Outlook on one
tranche from HN Trust was revised to Positive from Stable to
reflect Fitch's expectation that its credit enhancement level
will continue to grow and asset performance will remain within
expectations.

HYUNDAI MOTOR: Moody's Raises Standalone Rating to Baa3 From Ba1
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has revised to positive from stable the
outlook of the Baa2 issuer and senior unsecured bond ratings for
Hyundai Motor Company and its guaranteed subsidiaries Hyundai
Motor Manufacturing Czech s.r.o, Hyundai Capital America and
Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama LLC.

Moody's has also revised the outlook of the Baa2 issuer and
senior unsecured bond ratings for Kia Motors Corp to positive
from stable, and upgraded its standalone rating to Baa3 from Ba1.

Ratings Rationale

"The rating action on HMC primarily reflects its stronger-than-
expected sales performance in 2011 and our expectation that HMC's
financial profile will improve to a level over the next 12 -- 18
months that is strong for the Baa2 rating," says Chris Park, a
Moody's Vice President/Senior Credit Officer.

"The rating action on Kia is based on the upgrade of its
standalone rating to Baa3 from Ba1 as a result of its improved
business and financial profile, as well as rating uplift from the
support that its parent HMC is likely to provide in a distressed
scenario," adds Park.

Despite sizeable acquisition costs for Hyundai Engineering &
Construction, Moody's estimates that HMC's financial profile
improved further in 2011, with ex-finance adjusted debt/EBITDA
declining to about 1.4x from 1.7x a year earlier. This result was
because of strong auto sales as well as continued ASP increases.

Furthermore, although its unit sales growth should moderate to a
mid-single-digit percentage in 2012 from 12% in 2011 due to its
conservative capacity expansion strategy, its robust earnings and
contained capex should allow it to generate large positive free
cash flow, which should, in turn, be used to either reduce debt
or build up liquidity.

In this regard, Moody's expects its ex-finance adjusted
debt/EBITDA to move towards 1x and retained cash flow (RCF)/debt
to increase above 70% over the next 1-2 years. Such ratios are
strong for the Baa2 rating, even after incorporating its
contingent liabilities towards affiliates and finance
subsidiaries.

The upgrade of Kia's standalone rating is a reflection of a rapid
improvement in its financial and business profiles. As the
fastest-growing automobile manufacturer globally for consecutive
three yeARSsince 2009, Kia has demonstrated its ability to
strengthen the company's competitiveness on a sustained basis.

Moody's expects the gap in the business profiles between HMC and
Kia to narrow further over the next 2-3 years, as they make
further progress in operating integration and Kia's cost
competitiveness continues to improve.

Similar to HMC, Kia's debt/EBITDA and RCF/debt are likely to
strengthen to 1x and above 80% over the next 1-2 years, which
should solidly position the company at the Baa3 standalone
rating.

The rating on HMC could be upgraded if the group continues to
demonstrate its ability to improve its competitive position and
financial profile. This development could be evidenced by ex-
finance RCF/debt above 60-70%, debt/EBITDA below 1-1.3x and
positive free cash flow on a sustained basis.

The rating outlook on HMC could return to stable if its operating
cash flow deteriorates as a result of worse-than-anticipated
market conditions, or if it fails to perform in line with the
market and contain its working capital deficit. Downward rating
pressure may arise from a significant materialization of HMC's
contingent liabilities. This development could be evidenced by
ex-finance RCF/ debt declining below 60% and debt/EBITDA rising
above 1.3x.

Kia's rating would be upgraded if HMC's rating is upgraded and,
at the same time, Kia maintains its current robust business and
financial profile.

Kia's rating outlook would return to stable if HMC's rating
outlook returns to stable. Although unlikely over the next 1-2
years, a material deterioration of Kia's business and financial
profiles could also trigger such a rating action

The principal methodology used in rating HMC and Kia was Moody's
Rating Methodology for Global Automotive Industry, published in
June 2011.

HMC, headquartered in Seoul, is the world's fifth largest and
Korea's dominant automotive maker. Together with its subsidiary,
Kia, HMC sold approximately 6.7 million auto units in 2011.

CRAFAR FARMS: Government to Issue Decision on Possible Buyout
-------------------------------------------------------------
Andrea Fox at Waikato Times reports that New Zealanders can
expect a verdict from the New Zealand government on whether it
will allow Chinese company Shanghai Pengxin to buy the in-
receivership Crafar dairy farming empire.

After nine long months, the government agency Overseas Investment
Office (OIO) delivered its recommendation on the firm's possible
sale to Shanghai Pengxin, according to Waikato Times.

The report notes that Lands Minister Maurice Williamson and
Associate Finance Minister Jonathan Coleman are in charged with
making that decision on the possible deal, which is conditional
on OIO consent.

If the government allows the Chinese company to buy the farms, it
will mark a cultural turning point in New Zealand's history, say
legal experts, Waikato Times says.

Waikato Times adds that though German and Swiss investors have
been permitted by the OIO to buy large tracts of land and
forestry in recent months, China's hunger for a safe supply of
protein for its huge population and efforts by Chinese companies
to buy dairying capability on both sides of the Tasman has
unnerved Kiwis.

                       About Crafar Farms

Crafar Farms, New Zealand's largest family owned dairy business,
runs about 20,000 milking cows, and carries about 10,000 of other
stock.  The company employed 200 staff.

Crafar Farms was placed in receivership in October 2009, by its
lenders Westpac Banking Corp., Rabobank Groep, and PGG Wrightson
Finance.  The banks, owed around NZ$200 million, put KordaMentha
partners Michael Stiassny and Brendon Gibson in as receivers
after Crafar Farms breached covenants on its loans.

The latest report on the four Crafar companies in receivership
-- Plateau Farms, Ferry View Farms, Hillside and Taharua -- said
their bank debt in October was NZ$256 million, according to
BusinessDay.co.nz.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific on
April 27, 2010, The New Zealand Herald said 16 farms in the
Crafar Farms group have been placed onto the open market for sale
by Crafar's receivers through Bayleys Real Estate.  Bayley's said
the receivership sale is the single largest receivership sale of
farms in New Zealand history.  The 16 farms employ nearly 200
staff and managers and cover 8,000 hectares.  They are located in
the Waikato, near Benneydale in the King Country, Reporoa,
Atiamuri, Waverley, Hawera and Bulls.


MEGAUPLOAD LIMITED: Founder Seeks Bail in NZ Court Hearing
----------------------------------------------------------
Chris Bourke at Bloomberg News reports that Megaupload.com's
founder reappeared in a New Zealand court Monday after the file-
sharing Web site was shut by the U.S. government as part of an
alleged $175 million copyright infringement conspiracy.

Kim Dotcom, 38, the website founder who legally changed his name
from Kim Schmitz, and three other men are appearing in North
Shore District Court in Albany, a suburb of Auckland, seeking
bail, a court spokeswoman, who declined to give her name per
court policy, told Bloomberg.

Bloomberg, citing a New Zealand police statement, relates that
the four men were arrested on Jan. 20 on U.S. charges of criminal
copyright infringement and money laundering.  Three others remain
at large, the U.S. Department of Justice said in a Jan. 19
statement obtained by Bloomberg.

According to Bloomberg, the arrests occurred as the U.S. Congress
considers anti-piracy legislation supported by the movie and
music industries that prompted a backlash from companies
including Google Inc., the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation Inc.
and Web consumers.  Opponents said the Stop Online Piracy Act in
the House and the Protect IP Act in the Senate would promote
censorship, disrupt the Web's architecture, and harm their
ability to innovate, Bloomberg relays.

The Megaupload conspiracy was led by Dotcom, a resident of Hong
Kong and New Zealand, and a dual citizen of Finland and Germany,
who founded Megaupload Ltd., Bloomberg reports citing the
indictment.  Police also arrested a Dutch citizen who lives in
New Zealand and two German nationals, Bloomberg adds.

Megaupload.com is a file-sharing website.


RMB TRUSTEE: Fitch Affirms Rating on NZD19.6 Million at 'B-sf'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the notes issued by RMB Trustee
Limited in its capacity as issuer of Rated Mortgage RML 2006-2
Trust, due December 2050, as follows:

  -- NZD19.6m floating rate notes affirmed at 'B-sf'; Outlook
     Negative

The affirmation reflects satisfactory performance in the
underlying notes from a securitisation program established by
Propertyfinance Securities Limited.  The underlying portfolio of
non-conforming residential mortgages has performed in line with
Fitch's expectations with stable 90+ day arrears in the second
half of 2011.

"Although performance of the underlying mortgages have shown
stable signs in 90+ day arrears throughout 2011, risks persist
over the level of non-performing loans that remain under
enforcement," said Spencer Wilson, Associate Director in Fitch's
Structured Finance team.

The Negative Outlook reflects Fitch's view that the underlying
assets remain susceptible to a downturn in an already fragile
domestic economy.


RMB TRUSTEE: Fitch Affirms Rating on NZD18.9-Mil. Notes at 'Bsf'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Ratings has affirmed the notes issued by RMB Trustee Limited in
its capacity as issuer of Rated Mortgage CM 2006-1 Trust, due
December 2050, as follows:

  -- NZD18.5m floating rate notes affirmed at 'Bsf'; Outlook
     Negative

The affirmation reflects satisfactory performance in the
underlying notes from a securitisation program established by
Propertyfinance Securities Limited.

"The number of non-performing loans in the underlying transaction
will continue to apply stress to existing cash flows, while
rising concentration remains a key rating driver and will remain
so for the foreseeable future," says Spencer Wilson, Associate
Director in Fitch's Structured Finance team.

The Negative Outlook reflects the potential adverse impact of
those loans pending foreclosure, while the underlying portfolio
remains vulnerable to further deterioration as a result of
weakening economic conditions.


SOUTH CANTERBURY: Name Suppression Lifted for Third Defendant
-------------------------------------------------------------
Fairfax NZ News reports that name suppression has been lifted for
a third defendant facing charges over the collapse of South
Canterbury Finance.

According to the report, lawyer Stephen Rennie, acting for Lachie
John McLeod, said his client was no longer seeking name
suppression and was disappointed the Serious Fraud Office had
included him in the charges which he would defend.

Mr. McLeod, who resigned as chief executive officer of SCF in
2009, is facing a number of charges over the failed finance
company, Fairfax NZ discloses.

On January 20, the report relates, former SCF chief financial
officer Graeme Brown and Timaru chartered accountant Terry Hutton
went to the Timaru District Court to have their name suppression
revoked.

Fairfax NZ News reported on January 21 that South Canterbury
Finance chief financial officer Graeme Brown and Timaru chartered
accountant Terry Hutton, two of the South Canterbury Finance five
facing fraud charges, went to the court Friday to have their name
suppression revoked.

The news agency relates that Judge Joanna Maze on January 16
granted interim name suppression to all five men until they
appear in the Timaru District Court on February 13 in "the
interests of preserving rights to a fair trial".

On Friday, Judge Maze lifted the order relating to Brown and
Hutton at their request.  The Serious Fraud Office did not oppose
it being lifted, Fairfax NZ relates.

Name suppression continues for two other defendants, the report
adds.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia on Dec. 9,
2011, the Serious Fraud Office confirmed that it has laid charges
following its investigation into South Canterbury Finance
Limited.  SFO Chief Executive Adam Feeley said that, following a
14-month investigation into a variety of transactions involving
SCF, the SFO had laid 21 charges against five individuals
involved with the company's affairs.

According to Fairfax NZ, the charges include entering the Crown
Guarantee Scheme by deception in 2008 (which cost
NZ$1.58 billion), omitting to disclose a related party loan of
NZ$64.185 million from SCF to Southbury Group and Woolpak
Holdings, failing to disclose related party loans of
NZ$19.1 million from SCF to Shark Wholesalers, and, in 2008 and
2009, breaching the crown guarantee by lending NZ$39 million to
Quadrant Holding Limited.

                     About South Canterbury

Based in New Zealand, South Canterbury Finance Limited
(NZE:SCFHA) -- http://www.scf.co.nz/-- is engaged in the
provision of financial services.  The Company's principal
activities are borrowing funds from public and institutional
investors and on lending those funds to the business, plant and
equipment, property, rural and consumer sectors.  It typically
advances funds by means of hire purchase, floor plans, leasing of

loan insurance.

On Aug. 31, 2010, Trustees Executors Limited, as trustee for
South Canterbury Finance charging group, appointed Kerryn Downey
and William Black of McGrathNicol as receivers of the charging
group's secured assets.

"As Trustee, we have had South Canterbury Finance under
heightened surveillance since 2008.  As part of that, SCF was
granted a Trustee waiver in February 2010 to allow it time to
recapitalize.  Unfortunately, the Company's Directors have
advised us that they have not been successful with respect to a
recapitalization and requested us to appoint a receiver.  At this
point we, as Trustee, agree that it is the best interests of
debenture, deposit and bond holders to do that," said Yogesh
Mody, Southern Regional Manager for Trustees Executors Limited.

The New Zealand government said it would repay South Canterbury's
35,000 depositors and stockholders NZ$1.6 billion under the crown
retail deposit guarantee scheme.


STRATEGIC FINANCE: Investors to Learn Outcome of FMA's Probe
------------------------------------------------------------
Anne Gibson at The New Zealand Herald reports that about 13,000
investors who lost more than NZ$400 million in Strategic Finance
are soon to hear the outcome of the state watchdog's
investigations.

Auckland-headquartered Strategic Finance, in receivership and
liquidation, is in the sights of the Financial Markets Authority
which could shortly announce what action it might take against
those behind the Princes Wharf-based business, the Herald says.

The report relates that options range from laying charges against
those associated with Strategic -- as with Hanover, South
Canterbury Finance and others -- or ceasing its involvement
without taking any action.

For some months, the Herald notes, the company, once headed by
former All Black captain Jock Hobbs, has been on the authority's
list of finance company collapse investigations.  Last year, the
authority said its Strategic probe was continuing and the company
appeared on a list of 14 which has now been reduced to 12 with
ongoing investigations, the report says.

The most recent update from receivers John Fisk --
john.fisk@nz.pwc.com -- and Colin McCloy --
colin.mccloy@nz.pwc.com -- of PricewaterhouseCoopers reveals
"considerable uncertainties relating to the recoverability of
certain property loans which will have an impact on the final
recoveries that we will be able to achieve for secured debenture
investors".

Two years ago, the Herald recalls, PwC pegged the Strategic
disaster at NZ$452 million, showing how about 10,000 secured
debenture investors were owed NZ$367.8 million, 950 subordinated
note holders NZ$21.8 million and 65 unsecured depositors
NZ$1.5 million but interest payable on stock, deposits and notes
stood in early 2010 at NZ$54.7 million and Strategic had other
liabilities of NZ$6.2 million.

The PwC receivers are due to issue an update next month, the
Herald adds.

CEYLEASE FINANCIAL: Fitch Keeps National LT Rating at 'BB+'
----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings Lanka has maintained Ceylease Financial Services
Ltd's 'BB+(lka)' National Long-Term rating on Rating Watch
Evolving (RWE).

Ceylease was placed on RWE in July 2011 following Merchant Bank
of Sri Lanka Plc's announcement in May 2011 that the Central Bank
of Sri Lanka has provided "in principle approval" for the
issuance of a specialised banking license to MBSL subject to its
amalgamation with Ceylease and other entities of the Bank of
Ceylon (BoC; AA+(lka)'/Stable) group.  BOC owns a 55% stake in
Ceylease and a 72% stake in MBSL.

The RWE reflects the uncertainty surrounding the final details of
the intended merger, the profile of the merged entity, and the
resulting shareholding of state-owned BOC in the merged entity.

Fitch will resolve the RWE once the above details of the merged
entity become more definitive.  Retention of the merged entity
within the BOC group as well as an increase in BOC's effective
shareholding and future linkage with BoC group may lead to a
rating upgrade.  Conversely, a decrease in BOC's effective
shareholding through, for example, a divestment of the merged
entity and disassociation with the BOC franchise may lead to a
downgrade.

CFSL's total assets amounted to LKR1.7bn at end-September 2011.
The company operates via two outlets.

* FIJI: Moody's Assigns 'B1' Long Term Issuer Ratings
-----------------------------------------------------
This release represents Moody's Investors Service's summary
credit opinion on the Government of Fiji, includes certain
regulatory disclosures regarding its ratings. This release does
not constitute any change in Moody's ratings or rating rationale
for Fiji.

Moody's current ratings on the Government of Fiji are:

Long Term Issuer (domestic and foreign currency) ratings of B1

Senior Unsecured (domestic and foreign currency) ratings of B1

Ratings Rationale

Fiji's B1 government bond ratings reflect a low level of economic
resiliency, low government financial strength, and a high
susceptibility to event risk. Some of Fiji's statistical
indicators--notably external debt ratios--compare favorably with
countries in the same rating range. However, the ratings are
constrained by these other factors. Low economic resiliency is
indicated by very low GDP per capita and the small size of the
economy. Low institutional strength reflects weak scores in the
World Bank's indices of governance and rule of law. The Reserve
Bank's independence has recently been compromised.

The government's financial strength is assessed as low because of
the high ratios of government debt and interest payments to
government revenue. These are partially mitigated by two factors:
(1) most government debt is held by the Fiji National Provident
Fund, which will continue to invest in government securities over
the medium term; (2) the proportion of debt denominated in
foreign currency is relatively small, meaning that the government
is not subject to exchange-rate risk or to adverse conditions in
global financial markets.

Fiji is subject to political event risk. After the overthrow of
the government in 2000, government finances deteriorated as did
the level of investment in the economy. Real GDP growth and
investment activity has similarly declined and subsequently
stagnated following the December 2006 coup.

The negative outlook was maintained following the downgrade of
the sovereign rating to B1 in April 2009 due to expectations of a
continued deterioration in the balance of payments. Following a
large devaluation of the Fijian dollar and the imposition of
strict exchange controls, foreign exchange reserves rebounded as
tourist arrivals and export shipments recovered. However, growth
remains lackluster and has had an adverse effect on the
trajectory of government debt, justifying the maintenance of the
negative outlook.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Sovereign Bond
Ratings published in September 2008.

Tuesday's edition of the TCR-AP 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 Friday 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-AP editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR-AP. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com

Friday's edition of the TCR-AP features a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on the
latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication.  At first glance, this list may look like the
definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical
cost net of depreciation may understate the true value of a
firm's assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance
sheet for liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at
which equity securities trade in public market are determined by
more than a balance sheet solvency test.
