Smart-tek Solutions, Inc. Appoints Licensee for Its RTAC-PM Bird Flu Containment System for Hong Kong and Singapore


CORTE MADERA, Calif., April 5, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Smart-tek Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:STTK) and its subsidiary, Smart-tek Communications, Inc. announced today it has appointed Charles Thomas Consultants Limited as its exclusive licensee for Hong Kong and Singapore.

"These are truly exciting times for Smart-tek and its shareholders," said Perry Law, President of Smart-tek Communications. "We are delighted to have entered into a licensing agreement with the firm of Charles Thomas Consultants Limited to market our avian flu containment solution in Hong Kong and Singapore. We are using the same strategy that we have used in China, which has been very successful as evidenced by the purchase order recently received by SES investments (China) Limited. We are confident that our new licensee, along with our technical abilities, will be able to generate a substantial level of interest in Hong Kong and Singapore."

"We are very pleased to have entered into a licensing agreement with Smart-tek Solutions to introduce their bird flu containment solution to officials in Hong Kong and Singapore," said Christopher Wong, Managing Director of Charles Thomas Consultants Limited. "Even though these regions are currently bird flu free, there is a tremendous level of interest to maintain that status and government officials are always looking for solutions to better protect their food chain against the devastating H5N1 virus."

"We feel our system can be very beneficial to the people of Hong Kong and Singapore when used as part of a comprehensive bird flu containment strategy," said Law. "It is our understanding that government officials in Hong Kong and Singapore would be interested in seeing if our system can be applied in different areas of the poultry processing cycle. What's particularly beneficial about our system is that it is designed to be flexible and to accommodate different needs of different governments. Therefore, we believe our system will be able to accommodate the requirements of this market."

"As we have previously announced, we are in advanced stages of preparing a demonstration in both Hong Kong and Singapore," said Law.

The system, "RTAC-PM," was designed for the livestock industry and is targeted specifically for the poultry industry with user defined alerts that may assist governmental agencies to monitor poultry movement. The RTAC-PM system incorporates leading edge technology and is customized around customers' requirements with the flexibility to adapt to various types of OEM products.
