To the
Shareholders of China Technology Development Group Corporation:
You are cordially invited to
attend the 2011
Annual Meeting of Shareholders,
or the Annual Meeting,
of China Technology Development Group Corporation to be held at
our offices located at
Unit 1010-11,
10/F, West Tower,
Shun Tak Centre, 168-200
Connaught Road
Central, Hong Kong on
December 12, 2011
at
10:00
a.m., Hong Kong time.
The matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting are set forth
and described in the Notice of 2011
Annual Meeting and
proxy
statement
which are attached
hereto. We
encourage you to read
all of them carefully
before voting.
According to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's
Notice and Access rule, we are using the Internet as our primary
means of furnishing proxy materials to our shareholders this
year. Consequently, most shareholders will not receive a printed
set of our Proxy Statement and Annual Report. As an alternative
to the traditional proxy, the Company will deliver a "Notice of
Internet Availability of Proxy Materials" to shareholders (the
"Notice of Internet Availability"), provide Internet access to
the proxy materials, and provide a printed set of proxy
materials by mail upon request. We believe that the Notice and
Access proxy should expedite shareholders' receipt of proxy
materials, lower the costs of the annual meeting and minimize
impact on the environment.
Proxy Materials and Annual Report
An Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in should be installed in your Web
browser for viewing and printing our Proxy Materials and Annual
Report on Internet. To download an Adobe Acrobat Reader

request one. The materials will be sent free of charge to
shareholders who request them. Shareholders also may elect to
receive printed proxy materials for all future meetings. The
Notice provides instructions on how to request paper or email
copies via the Internet, by
telephone or by email.
Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials
The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will tell
shareholders how to access and review the information contained
in the proxy materials and how to vote their proxies via the
Internet. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials
is being mailed to shareholders on October 28, 2011.
Voting for Registered Shareholders
If your shares are registered directly in your name with our
transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, you are

Trust Company and they can vote by mail or in person.
