Corporate Overview
The Company has identified the global tourism market as its first investment target. As it currently exists, the tourism industry is fragmented into various geographic regions. We believe that approaching this industry from a global perspective is an emerging market with tremendous growth potential. We plan to set up and/or acquire offices in various regions of the world and through them, develop the local tourism industry and expand our local tourism market. Ultimately, we plan to unify and manage our regional offices and to market our global services through the internet.
We have set up three subsidiaries, Airchn Travel Global, Inc. in Seattle, Washington ("ATGI") and Airchn Travel (Canada) Inc., in Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada ("ATCI") and Airchn Travel (Beijing) Inc. in Beijing, China ("ATBI"). Our Beijing office has been closed as of September 30, 2021 due to lack of business and to reduce operating costs.
We are engaged in services such as airline and cruise ticketing, customized and packaged tours, travel blogs, travel magazines, sales of travel related merchandise, group hotel reservations, business travel arrangements, conference travel arrangements, car rental and admission ticket sale for local tourist attractions.
We will continue to explore other business growth opportunities, regardless of industry, in order to diversify our business operations and investments.
On January 17, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware to change its name from News of China, Inc. to W&E Source Corp. In connection the name change, our listing symbol also changed from "NWCH" to "WESC." In addition, the Company also increased its total authorized shares to 500,000,000 to anticipate future financing through the issuance of our equity or convertible debt to finance our business.
COVID-19
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was first detected in Wuhan, China, and has since spread to other regions, including Europe and North America. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared that the rapidly spreading COVID-19 outbreak was a global pandemic ("COVID-19 pandemic"). In response to the pandemic, many governments around the world have implemented, and continue to implement, a variety of measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, including travel restrictions and bans, instructions to residents to practice social distancing, quarantine advisories, shelter-in-place orders and required closures of non-essential businesses. These government mandates have forced many of the companies on whom our business relies, including hotels and other accommodation providers and airlines, to seek government support in order to continue operating, to curtail drastically their service offerings or to cease operations entirely. Further, these measures have materially adversely affected, and may further adversely affect, consumer sentiment and discretionary spending patterns, economies and financial markets, and our customers. The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic conditions and government orders have resulted in a material decrease in consumer spending and an unprecedented decline in travel activities and consumer demand for related services. Our financial results and prospects are almost entirely dependent on the sale of such travel-related services. Our results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 have been significantly and negatively impacted, with a material decline in gross travel bookings and total revenues as compared to the corresponding period in 2020. We expect to continue to see severely reduced new travel reservation bookings as compared to 2020 levels for the foreseeable future, which will have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Due to the uncertain and rapidly evolving nature of current conditions around the world, we are unable to predict accurately the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business going forward. With the continued spread of COVID-19 in the United States and various other countries, we expect the pandemic and its effects to continue to have a significant adverse impact on our business for the duration of the pandemic, during any resurgences of the pandemic and during the subsequent economic recovery, which could be an extended period of time.

Revenues
We had no revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, mainly due to the decrease in our travel business arrangement income caused by the covid-19 pandemic globally.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 decreased by $1,567 or 14%, compared with the same period in 2020. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in legal fees and filing fees.
Net loss
We had net losses of $12,065 and $26,468 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease of $14,403 or 54%, and had an accumulated deficit of $1,267,906 since the inception of our business as at September 30, 2021. The decrease in net loss is mainly attributable to a decrease of general and administrative expenses and the imputed interest expense incurred in connection with the advance share issuance during the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our financial condition at the end of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021 are summarized as follows:

Our CEO, Hong Ba, has committed to providing our working capital requirements for the next 12 months.
Management believes that the Company will be able to raise sufficient capital to meet our working capital requirements for the next 12 month period. Management is currently seeking financing opportunities to meet our estimated funding requirements for the next 12 months primarily through private placements of our equity securities.
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon the continued financial support from our shareholders, our ability to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.
