Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, we carried out an evaluation, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, Based on the foregoing evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023, based on the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (2013 Framework).

Based on this evaluation under the 2013 Framework, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective March 31, 2023 due to the following material weaknesses:

● We did not have sufficient personnel with appropriate levels of accounting knowledge and experience to address complex U.S.

GAAP accounting issues and to prepare and review financial statements and related disclosures under U.S.

Specifically, our control did not operate effectively to ensure the appropriate and timely analysis of and accounting for unusual and non-routine transactions and certain financial statement accounts;

● We are lacking adequate policies and procedures in internal audit function to ensure that our policies and procedures have been carried out as planned;

● We had deficiencies in our IT general controls regarding to the Logical Access Security, Change Management, IT Operations and Cybersecurity of our financial system and key application system, etc.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard AS 2201, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

During the year ended March 31, 2023, we are in the progress of improving our system security environment and conducting regular backup plans and penetration testing to ensure network and information security.

We also kept refining the operational and financial system for our businesses to warn of risks and support management’s ability to make significant decisions.

We are also developing a comprehensive system which could combine interactive information between our Automobile Transaction and Related Services and Online Ride-hailing Platform Services.

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance

The Nomination and Compensation

Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company does not have a policy or practice regarding evaluating Total Shareholder Return as

part of its determination of compensation decisions for the named executive officers.

The Nomination and Compensation Committee takes

various factors into account in determining the competitiveness of its executive compensation.

Over the past two fiscal years the Nomination

and Compensation Committee has recognized the significant time and effort required by the executive officer to manage the Company’s

liquidity by raising capital while reducing operating expenses and cash used in operations, secure and maintain the Company’s listing

on the Nasdaq Market.

All information provided

above under the “Pay Versus Performance Information” heading will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing

incorporation language in any such filing.
