Tim Hughes puts the boot into the highs and lows of the online travel business (with an Australasian/Asian bias) with some blogging about consuming and loving travel thrown in.

China pays up
Fresh from news about China Heating Up we see that Ctrip has committed to pay 30% of this years earnings as dividends. That is a large upfront committment for a you Internet company. Could be further proof that the China online general and online travel markets are maturing. Or maybe there are a bunch of investors that want money out of a relatively thinly traded stock.

make you happy dividend time MR
China is the new Russia of the 90's. some people will make a lot of money and others will loose more.
China and the stocks people play is a form of gambling rather than investment.
Being a party to a new float involving a certain hospitality company in China which is owned by a certain RED party, and watching from the outer as all the ticks are placed in the boxes for the up and coming Float, i cant but think this russian trojan horse has but moved south and had a laquer makeover.
A sprinkling of foreigners with a touch of USA involvement and a playing of financials = big float and instant riches in the land of chairman MAO where not all people are equal...... especially after the float.
