LONDON (AFP) - The mammoth European battle for ABN Amro stretched to Asia yesterday, as Britain's Barclays won financial firepower from China and Singapore to strengthen its takeover bid for the Dutch bank.

Barclays, the third-biggest British bank, said it had sweetened its offer by including a cash element as part of a revised informal bid worth about 67.5 billion euros (93.3 billion dollars) for ABN Amro.

Its previous proposal had been an all-shares bid worth about 65 billion euros.
