Thank you, Kelvin. For the second quarter of 2018, China's GDP grew at 6.7%, slightly below the 6.8% of the fourth quarter of 2018. However, China factory output growth in June began to a two year low and the prospect of trade war with the United States has created some bit of uncertainty. According the data reported by the China Association Automobile Manufacturers CAAM in a second quarter 2018, sales of commercial vehicles, excluding gasoline power and electriced vehicles increased by 10.3%. The 12 month unit sales grew by 12.1% so that’s by 15.3% increase in heavy-duty trucks sales. The bus market decrease by 3.1% with the significant declines in both heavy-duty and medium-duty bus sales. The life of EV bus sales negatively affected by this followed by internal combustion engine. Our net revenue for the second quarter of 2018 improved by 3.2% to RMB12.2 billion, or US$635.5 dollars million compare to RMB4.1 billion in a second quarter of 2017. The total number of engine sold by GYMCL during the second quarter of 2018 increased by 11.1% to 100,675 unit compared with 90,638 units in the same quarter last year. Our higher engine unit sales in the second quarter of 2018 were generated by increased truck sales across the board led by high and medium-duty engine sales and increases several off-road markets including Agricultural, industrial engine and [indiscernible] gen-set. Our off-road unit engine sales has been a growing fast for our engine sales. For the first six months of 2018, our engine sales grew slightly with increasing in medium and heavy-duty truck engine and industrial engine. Net revenue was RMB8.5 billion or US$1.2 billion dollars compared with RMB8.6 billion in the same period last year.

Thank you, Weng Ming. The comparative figure for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017 were restate the due to the adoption of IFRS 15 from January 1, 2008. And revenue from contracts with customer by a full respective application. The financial impact on the adoption of IFRS 15 is [distracted] (Ph) and attached at the end of the press release. Now let me review the second quarter results for 2018. Our net revenue for the second quarter of 2018 increased by 3.2% to RMB42 billion, US$635.5 million compared with RMB4.1 billion in the second quarter of 2017. The total number of engines sold by GYMCL during the second quarter of 2018 was 100,675 unit compared with 90,638 in the same quarter last year an increase of 11.1%. The increase was mainly due to the increase in engine sales to the truck and forklift segment, particularly the agriculture application and was partially offset by the decrease in the [power] (Ph) segment. In addition, Company sales in the power generation and the industry equipment applications increase as compared with the same quarter last year.

Thank you sir. Ladies and gentlemen we will now begin the question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions]. We have the first question from the line of David Raso. Please ask your question.

Thank you for the time. I was just curious, how you are seeing the development of the tariff situation, and how it's impacting your order book? The truck market obviously the weakness we are starting to see there, we have been waiting for that now for like six to seven months. So that was sort of due to the harder comparisons. But I think curious if you could parcel out how much of the incremental weakness of rate on truck do you think actually is related to some concerns about a broader slow down and tariffs? And maybe also take that conversation over to the off-highway markets which is especially in agriculture still seen strong for you but be curious to hear your perspective on the tariff impact on off-highway markets as well?

Okay. Hi David this is Weng Ming here. The tariff would not affect us directly, simply because we did not sell to America, we just sell our engines to America. It's mainly for domestic consumption and with about 50% this quarter to regions in Southeast Asia, Middle East and Latin America and [African nation] (Ph). So we do have a direct impact probably, but and also result of most our raw materials components locally as well. Now however, if the economy of the China is expected than there will definitely the indirect impact on our business. You know as I said now, while we are still expect the heavy-duty truck markets to slowdown. We haven't seen up to now at this point and time a nice little impact with our business yet. So certainly it’s very difficult to quantify the uncertainty that announced rounding the economy.

On-highway market, so the on-highway market before we discuss off-highway, again I know the expectations to start the year was on-highway was going to be down. But have you seen in the last three months, maybe ask more directly, your forecast for on-highway truck three months ago versus today for the full-year how has that changed?

At the beginning of year, we expected the heavy-duty truck markets too slow for this year. But I mean it still continue to grow. So we expect - the last year I think the whole market was up about 1.1 million unit of vehicles. This year for the first six months of the business growth there. So expect that the second half to start to slowdown. But overall for the full-year it will probably be above the same level as last year, that is our assumption. And for the off-highly market which I mentioned earlier, we saw really very sales in India, not only in the industrial engines, but also in [indiscernible] application as well as marine and power generation segment as well. So our off-market segments that we grew quite strongly in the second quarter.

So the off-highway markets are not showing any sentiment concern about the Chinese economy in the order books [indiscernible] healthy profile there?

Yes, you are right.

And my last question, the commitment the government has to National VI, has there been any wavering in that at all, are we still which appears to be committed to an urban roll out in summer of 20 and at the country side roll out in summer of 21, is that still the base case?

Yes.

And if so, how do we think about the cost increases trying to think through a potential partial or full kind of pre-buy?

Okay. Now I think the government is pretty committed and in fact we will be sure at the right - not too long ago. With just the gas engine for us July, 2019 followed by the heavy truck in the rest of it. So obviously I think the cost for this National VI engine is sort of higher than National V or IV that we had. So yes we had sort of [indiscernible]. Okay.

Thank you very much.
