Singapore, 16 January 2017 - Baker Tilly TFW would like to extend its heartiest congratulations to its client, Samurai 2K Aerosol Limited, on being the first company in 2017 to successfully list on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) Catalist.

Said Ian Ong, Samurai 2K:
“We’re extremely pleased to have worked with Baker Tilly TFW as our reporting accountant and would like to extend our special thanks to Mr Joshua Ong and Ms Guo Shuqi. Their familiarity with the SGX listing rules, understanding of the paint aerosols industry and dedication contributed to our successful listing on the SGX.”
