Two weeks ago, oxdeming tapped Simcere as a Far East way to get into drugs:

[L]ow valuation; great beneficiary of health reform in China; government strong support; cost-effectiveness in rolling out innovative medicine; leading performer in Chinese pharm sector.

In a pitch from two days ago, mrindependent elaborates:

Simcere Pharmaceutical is a rapidly growing generic pharmaceuticals company located in China. The company has tripled its revenues in the last 5 years and seems poised for future growth. Price has dropped recently due to combination of a China stock market pullback and a recent earnings miss. As a result, this extremely attractive company is available for just 1.44 times book value and 15 times estimated 2009 earnings. The balance sheet is sold with approximately $0.70 per share in net cash.
