from last 10q CHECK THE LINK,then read this: On February 13, 2012, Sitoa Global, Inc., announced that it entered into a partnership agreement with BCLN
Golf, Ltd (http://www.bclngolf.com/).
Under the new agreement, Sitoa will receive monthly hosting fees and a revenue share in return for the
developing and hosting of a marketplace for online sales of BCLN s golf apparel as well as other golf related
products from US and European golf specialty companies.
Currently, BCLN is the 3rd largest golf apparel designer and retailer in Hong Kong and Mainland China with
its products being only sold in pro shops located in golf courses throughout both countries
.

In 2011, analysts estimate that the Chinese golf industry generated revenues of over 3 billion yuan (US$500
million) and project it to grow at over 15% per year over the next five years
.
The BCLN marketplace is expected to launch in late April 2012 and represents the fourth marketplace that
Sitoa will be directly hosting and managing.
Furthermore, on February 8, 2012, Sitoa announced it entered into a strategic partnership with
ShopShip2PH
. ShopShip2PH is specifically designed for Overseas Foreign Workers from the Philippines
that are living overseas for employment.
Under the partnership, Sitoa will receive monthly hosting fees and revenue share in return for its Focused
Social Marketplace platform being utilized to launch an e-commerce marketplace that permits products to be
purchased online and then shipped directly to the Philippines.
The marketplace will feature competitively priced products, compared to what Philippine based specialty
importers can attain them for, that are available outside the Philippines.
The site is expected to launch by April 1st, 2012 and has an initial commitments for 1,100 products including
merchandises from product partners; Fragrancenet.com, Troika (Germany), Philippi (Germany) and Palm
Beach Jewelry. What s more, the product lineup for the marketplace is targeted to be over 3,000 by yearend
.
Similarly, through Sitoa s partnership with the 2nd largest shipping company in the Philippines, LBC Express
(www.lbcexpress.com), LBC will market the ShopShip2PH website to its 2 million Overseas Foreign Worker
customers as well as permit them to use membership points to redeem for products bought online through
ShopShip2PH.
It should be noted that analysts estimate that approximately 11 percent of the Philippines population or
between 8.6 million and 11 million Overseas Foreign Workers are living outside the Philippines resulting in
an estimated yearly economic impact of approximately $19 billion in remittances sent back to the Philippines
from abroad.
