The petitions were dismissed because the petitioner failed to comply with r.46(2) by not taking all reasonable steps to bring the Statutory Demands to the debtors' attention: after failing to effect personal service at Hong Kong addresses the petitioner knew of related PRC guarantors and a 2009 restructuring such that simple inquiries (letters/faxes/phone calls) to PRC premises or to the liquidators could reasonably have been made and might have led to personal service; the petitioner did not establish those steps would have been futile.
