HONG KONG, Sept. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Euro Tech Holdings Company Limited (Nasdaq: CLWT) today announced that although the continuously poor market price of the company's shares is not reflective of the true value contained in the company's business units, to address this issue, the company has recently engaged legal advisors to prepare a reverse stock split plan to be approved by the board of directors.
