SANAKO establishes Beijing Office in China

SANAKO has established a Beijing office to strengthen the company's presence in
the populous Chinese capital. The tactical location of the Beijing branch will
allow SANAKO's China Representative Office to focus on forging and strengthening
relations with key strategic partners.

"It's worth noting that several government ministries and key policy making
departments are located in this area. Many of China's prestigious universities
are also situated here. This location will ensure that we have a central contact
point for our key connections in the Beijing area," said Ville Lintervo, SANAKO
Vice President for Greater China, East Asia, South Asia and Oceania.

The Beijing office will be headed by Xu Zheng, recently appointed Technical
Sales Manager, with responsibility for Partnerships and Key Accounts in Beijing.

Under Xu's stewardship, staff at the new office will develop project
opportunities in the educational sector and harvest partnership prospects in new
segments and business areas. SANAKO's Beijing office opened its doors in early
October 2008.
