    Prepayments include advances to suppliers and prepaid income tax.

     

    Before accepting any new customer, the Group assesses the potential customer’s credit quality and defined credit limits by customer. Limits attributed to customers are reviewed once a year. The aging analysis of trade receivables is as follows:

     

       As at December 31, 
       2017  2016 
     Current  1,791,936   1,496,397

        11,860,798   24,763,795 

     

    The Group allows an average credit period of 90 -120 days to its trade customers. For the overdue trade receivable, the Company provided a bad debt allowance amounting to $nil and $331,196 during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The provision for doubtful debts is recorded using a provision account unless the Group is satisfied that recovery is remote, in which case the unrecovered loss is written off against trade receivables and the provision for doubtful debts directly. The Group does not hold any collateral over these balances.

     

    The movement in the provision for doubtful debts during the year is as follows:

     

       2017  2016 
     As at Janaury 1  1,280,330   1,028,439 
     Provision provided in the year  -   331,196
