2.We note your disclosure that the September 2023 financial projections reflect
certain changes, such as “the changing economic and business outlook in Mainland
China” as well as “global competition, geopolitics, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate
hikes, [and] the overall market economy.” Please revise to clearly describe how these
factors changed since the March 2023 projections, quantifying where applicable. Further,
update any risks in the Risk Factors section characterized as potential if you have
experienced these risks. Finally, if applicable, revise your MD&A section to identify any
known trend information that is reasonably likely to have a material effect on your results
of operations or financial condition.
3.We note your revisions in response to prior comment 8. Please revise the September 2023
projections section to discuss the basis for, and limitations of, the projections and
assumptions contained therein. Non-exclusive examples of disclosure that should be
updated are:
•Revise to provide the basis for assumptions 1, 2, 3 and 4, quantifying where
applicable, and discuss the factors or contingencies that would affect such growth
from ultimately materializing;
•Revise to discuss in greater detail your planned camping RVs business, quantifying
where applicable, and clarify the reason(s) why the launch of the camping RV
business was postponed;
•Clarify the status of the potential projects with local governments and MKD Taiwan's
current contracts or agreements, if any, with those local governments; and
•Revise to clarify the number of sales and/or leases of camping RVs as of the date of
the prospectus.
Going concern and Capital Resources, page 123
4.We note that you removed disclosure related to your bank borrowings and outstanding
payments, which was added in response to a prior comment. Please advise or revise.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information, page 140
5.Please correct the disclosures that indicate Cetus Capital's unaudited condensed balance
sheet as of June 30, 2023 and unaudited condensed statement of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 2023 are included in the filing, since they are not in the
filing. Alternatively, you may indicate the interim financial statements are included in
Cetus Capital's Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023.
6.We note your revisions on page 141 in response to prior comment 11, but certain
disclosures, elsewhere in the filing, appear to continue to indicate that you have assumed
MKD BVI owns all the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of MKD Taiwan

immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination or that MKD Taiwan is or
will be wholly-owned (e.g., the third page of the letter to the Stockholders of Cetus
Capital, page 14, page 77 and page F-96). Please ensure all disclosures in the filing are
accurate and consistent. Also, since the Taiwan Reorganization resulted in the
shareholders of MKD Taiwan exchanging their shares of MKD Taiwan for shares of
MKD BVI, it appears to us you should not refer to this transaction being accounted for as
a "reverse recapitalization."
7.We note the financial statements presented in the columns labeled “MKD” appear to be
those of MKD Taiwan. Please revise your column headings accordingly.
Note 3 - Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,
page 145
8.We note your disclosures under B(2) related to the pro forma balance sheet and under
B(2) related to the pro form statement of operations state the adjustments reflect the
Taiwan Reorganization through the contribution of 62.36% of the share capital in MKD
Taiwan to Cetus Capital, which is inconsistent with other disclosures throughout the filing
that indicate MKD BVI will own a controlling interest of MKD Taiwan at the Closing and
MKD BVI and Cetus Capital are expected to separately merge with PubCo. Please revise
your disclosures to resolve this inconsistency and revise the related pro forma
adjustments, if applicable.
9.We note your response to prior comment 11 and the revisions to the pro forma financial
statements, including adjustment 2 under the pro forma balance sheet and adjustment 2
under the pro forma statements of income. Please revise your disclosures to address the
following:
•Provide separate adjustments to the pro forma balance sheet and pro forma statements
of operations to reflect the elimination of the non-controlling interest recorded in
MKD Taiwan's historical financial statements related to the existing non-controlling
interest in MKD Jiaxing since that non-controlling interest will be acquired by MKD
BVI and disclose the terms of the acquisition of that non-controlling interest by MKD
BVI.
•Provide separate adjustments to the pro forma balance sheet and pro forma statements
of operations to reflect the new non-controlling interest that will be required to be
recorded to present the 37.64% non-controlling interest in MKD Taiwan that will not
be owned by MKD BVI and disclose how each adjustment was calculated and
determined. In this regard, it is not clear to us how the pro forma balance sheet
adjustments were determined, since it appears adjustment (2) reduces the amounts of
each equity line item in MKD Taiwan’s historical balance sheet by 37.64%, and it is
not clear to us where or how the new non-controlling interest is recorded. It is also
not clear to us how the annual and interim pro forma statements of operations
adjustments were determined, including why the adjustment in the annual period
increased the pro forma net loss by 37% or why the adjustment in the interim period

decreased the pro forma net loss by 66%. Explain to us why you believe your
accounting is appropriate and cite the specific authoritative accounting literature you
relied on to support your conclusion.
10.Based on the assumptions underlying the interim pro forma statement of operations for the
six months ended June 30, 2023, it appears you should provide a pro forma adjustment to
eliminate the income earned by Cetus Capital from the assets held in the trust account
under both redemption scenarios since the pro forma statements of income assume such
assets were released from the trust account as of January 1, 2022 and would not have
earned income during the interim period. Please revise.
