Item 5.        Other Events

        The AES Corporation ("AES") has offered to remove the $14.50 per
share cap on the value to be received by Class A shareholders of AES
China Generating Co. Ltd ("AES ChiGen") pursuant to the previously
announced amalgamation transaction involving AES ChiGen and a sub-
sidiary of AES by removing the possibility of a downward adjustment to
the 0.2900 exchange ratio in the event that the price for AES's common
stock trades above $50 per share. The actual number of shares of AES
Common Stock to be received by Class A shareholders of AES ChiGen will
be 0.2900 of a share of AES Common Stock for each share of AES ChiGen
Class A Common Stock, provided that the average closing price of AES
Common Stock on the NYSE is at least $45.00 during the measuring period.
The measuring period begins 18 trading days and ends 3 trading days
before the AES ChiGen special meeting. The date for the Special Meeting
has not yet been set. An amended amalgamation agreement, reflecting
the increased offer, will be presented in the near future to the Special
Committee of Class A Directors and the entire Board of Directors of AES
ChiGen for their consideration.
