and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and
•State your election under Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act.
3.We note that a majority of your executive officers and/or directors have significant ties to
China. Please provide prominent disclosure about the legal and operational risks
associated with a majority of your directors and/or officers having significant ties to
China. Your disclosure should make clear whether these risks could result in a material
change in your or the target company’s post-combination operations and/or the value of
the securities you are registering or could significantly limit or completely hinder your
ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such
securities to significantly decline or be worthless. Your disclosure should address how
recent statements and regulatory actions by China’s government, such as those related to
the use of variable interest entities and data security or antimonopoly concerns, have or
may impact the company’s ability to conduct its business, accept foreign investments, or
list on a U.S. or other foreign exchange. Please disclose the location of your auditor’s
headquarters and whether and how the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, as
amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, and related regulations will affect
your company.
4.Please disclose the risks that the majority of your directors and/or officers having
significant ties to China poses to investors. In particular, describe the significant
regulatory, liquidity, and enforcement risks with cross-references to the more detailed
discussion of these risks in the prospectus. For example, specifically discuss risks arising
from the legal system in China, including risks and uncertainties regarding the
enforcement of laws and that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little
advance notice; and the risk that the Chinese government may intervene or influence your
search for a target company or completion of your initial business combination at any
time, which could result in a material change in your operations and/or the value of the
securities you are registering.
5.Disclose each permission or approval that you or your officers and/or directors are
required to obtain from Chinese authorities to search for a target company. State whether
your directors and/or officers are covered by permissions requirements from the China
Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC), Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC)
or any other governmental agency, and state affirmatively whether you have received all
requisite permissions or approvals and whether any permissions or approvals have been
denied. Please also describe the consequences to you and your investors if your officers
and/or directors (i) do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, (ii)
inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii)
applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and you are required to obtain such
permissions or approvals in the future.
6.Please address specifically any PRC regulations concerning mergers and acquisitions by
foreign investors that your initial business combination transaction may be subject to,
including PRC regulatory reviews, which may impact your ability to complete a business

combination. Also address any impact PRC law or regulation may have on the cash
flows associated with the business combination, including shareholder redemption rights.
7.Please revise to disclose in the introduction to your Business section that the location of
the sponsor and the majority of your executive officers and/or directors having significant
ties to China may make you a less attractive partner to a non China-based target company,
which may therefore limit the pool of acquisition candidates.
8.We note that all of your officers and directors appear to be located outside of the United
States. Please create a separate Enforceability of Civil Liabilities section for the
discussion of the enforcement risks related to civil liabilities due to your officers and
directors being located in Cambodia, China, or other locations. Please identify each
officer and/or director located in Cambodia, China, or other locations and disclose that it
will be more difficult to enforce liabilities and enforce judgments on those individuals.
For example, revise to discuss more specifically the limitations on investors being able to
effect service of process and enforce civil liabilities in Cambodia, China, or other
locations; lack of reciprocity and treaties; and cost and time constraints. Also, please
disclose these risks in a separate risk factor, which should contain disclosures consistent
with the separate section.
Item 1A. Risk Factors, page 7
9.Please revise to highlight the risk that conflicts of interest may arise between your
directors and officers and you. In this regard, we note your disclosure on page 8 that
management expects to devote only a limited amount of time to your affairs.
10.Please revise to highlight any risks associated with reporting requirements and compliance
obligations under the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and other applicable
securities laws and regulations.
11.Given the Chinese government’s significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of
your directors’ and/or officers’ search for a target company, please revise to highlight
separately the risk that the Chinese government may intervene or influence your
operations at any time, which could result in a material change in your search and/or the
value of the securities you are registering.
12.In light of recent events indicating greater oversight by the Cyberspace Administration of
China (CAC) over data security, please revise your disclosure to explain how this
oversight impacts your officers and directors and to what extent you believe that you are
compliant with the regulations or policies that have been issued by the CAC to date.
Item 2. Financial Information, page 11
13.Please revise to provide, as applicable, your plan of operation for the remainder of the
fiscal year or your plan of operation for the remainder of the fiscal year and for the first
six months of the next fiscal year. See Item 101(a)(3) of Regulation S-K.

14.Please revise to briefly discuss the company's results of operations and liquidity and
capital resources. For example, clarify, if true, that the company recognized no revenue
for the period through February 28, 2023 and discuss whether management expects the
company to recognize any revenue during the next 12 months. Additionally, discuss
material cash requirements and identify the anticipated sources of funds needed to satisfy
such cash requirements. For example, describe the material terms of the amounts due to a
related company, including the principal amount, interest rate, and maturity date. See
Item 303 of Regulation S-K.
Item 5. Directors and Executive Officers, page 13
15.Please revise to provide all of the information required by Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K.

dates and duration of employment. Additionally, for each director, please revise to briefly
discuss the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led to the conclusion
that such person should serve as a director.
16.Please revise to clearly identify Mr. Zhaosu as a promoter. See Item 401(g) of Regulation
S-K.

conflict of interest with this company.
