INTRODUCTION
 
This final Amendment No. 5 to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3, together with the exhibits hereto (this “Transaction Statement”), is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by (1) Dragon Pharmaceutical Inc., a Florida corporation (“Dragon” or the “Company”), the issuer of the common stock that is subject to the Rule 13e-3 transaction, (2)Chief Respect Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“Parent”), (3) Datong Investment Inc., a Florida corporation (“MergerSub”), and (4) Yanlin Han, an  individual, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“Mr. Han”) (collectively, the “Filing Persons”).

This Amendment amends and supplements the Transaction Statement, together with the exhibits thereto, originally filed jointly by the Filing Persons with the SEC on April 1, 2010, and as amended to date (the “Transaction Statement”). This final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) to report the results of the transaction that is subject to the Transaction Statement.

Item 15. Additional Information

 Item 15(a) is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the following information:

                On July 20, 2010, at a Special Meeting of the Company’s shareholders, the Company’s shareholders voted to approve the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into the Company pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 26, 2010, by and among the Filing Persons.

 The Merger became effective on July 22, 2010, upon acceptance of the Articles of Merger for filing by the Florida Secretary of State (the “Effective Time”).  At the Effective Time of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, and the Company continued as the surviving corporation of the Merger with Mr. Han and Chief Respect Limited as its sole shareholders.  At the Effective Time, (a) each share of the voting common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) (other than shares owned by Mr. Han  and shares held by any of the Company’s  shareholders who are entitled to and who properly exercised their appraisal rights under Florida law) was converted into the right to receive $0.82 per share in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, (b) each option to purchase shares of Common Stock outstanding under the Company’s stock option plans was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash amount (without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes) equal to (i) the excess, if any, of $0.82 over the per share exercise price of the option, multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares subject to the option immediately prior to the Effective Time.   As a result of the Merger, the Common Stock will cease to trade on  the OTCBB and TSX effective as of the close of business on or about July 22, 2010, and became eligible for delisting from such market and termination of registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Accordingly, the Company will file a Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the SEC in order to deregister its Common Stock under the Exchange Act.
