THESE CONTRACTS ARE PENDING, NOT YET SIGNED!

Apr 5, 2006 7:00:00 AM
VANCOUVER, WA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 04/05/06 -- Advanced ID Corporation (OTC BB: AIDO) announced today progress on the application of DataTRAC(TM) UHF/RFID for Taiwan. According to Dr. Chin Te Cheng, Section Chief of Tainan City Animal Disease Control Center, "Taiwan recently established the mandate and requirement for bird flu containment for the country. Taiwan has not confirmed any cases to date of bird flu contamination, but is proactively preparing for the possibility to ensure the health of its people. Our group is working with Advanced ID in the preparation of identification for the country's poultry population. The country of Taiwan has slaughtered more than 30 million chickens to date and wants to alleviate the threat of mass culling of the chicken population. We have already partnered with Advanced ID on an identification program for pigs and cattle. In 2000, Taiwan had to slaughter 14 million pigs as a result of an outbreak of hoof and mouth disease, and therefore is actively working on a bird flu identification program with Advanced ID Corporation to prevent the past from repeating itself." Dr. Cheng confirms that Advanced ID is finalizing the $13 million poultry tracking program budget and the Taiwan Government will review the budget shortly.
According to Dan Finch, President & CEO of Advanced ID, "We are pleased that our technology and the DataTRAC(TM) system is earning critical review and application. We are currently in discussions with multiple countries, regulatory leaders and industry stakeholders. We are confident that our application will be helpful and provide a cost effective means to support optimal traceability of poultry."
