1. ConGen Munich contact Josef Priller, of Sitec's sales
department, regarding the questions outlined in reftel. Priller
provided the following answers:

a) Sitec's customers: Sitec's typical customers are commercial
aircraft manufacturers located worldwide.

b) Ties to China: Sitec has no direct business relationship with
firms in China. Since May 2001 Sitec has been a subsidiary of
Accuron Technologies, a Singapore-based conglomerate. Since 1995
Accuron has run an aerospace component operation in China in the
Export Processing Zone of the Suzhou Industrial Park, which produces
airfoils, engine mounts, and case modules. However, Sitec and
Accuron's operation in China do not trade parts with each other.

c) U.S. export controls: Sitec management understands the
restrictions of the U.S. Munitions List.


2. Post found no indication that Sitec is acting in a manner
inconsistent with U.S. export controls, or was not forthcoming in
its answers to our questions.


3. This report has been coordinated with Embassy Berlin.
