The immense popularity of the Pershing brand on the Chinese market has been reconfirmed for 2009, too.

When 38-year-old Donald Moffat logged onto his Barclays bank account yesterday morning expecting to see his account in the black he was astonished to say the least when he encountered a £100 billion deficit on his current account, enough money to bail out the banking sector three times over!
