Does anybody know where I can get the small Chinese silver bullion coins?

I see that hundreds of thousands of the silver 3 yuan pandas have been minted. They have about 1/4 ounce of silver in them, and are attractive. I'd like to buy a few hundred as both to collect and to use as gifts. Does anybody know where I can get them?
I live in Asia, so I can buy in Asia. Or, of course, I can buy in America.

There was also a 3 Yuan silver Panda issued in 1997 to commemorate the World Wildlife Fund. Mintage was 75,000 and these usually sell for $35-$45 dollars. I can't think of any other 3 Yuan 1/4 oz. silver Pandas, so if you see hundreds of thousands of 3 Yuan Pandas for sale than you are looking at copies that probably aren't silver. Here is a photo of the 1997 World Wildlife Coin:

Thank you for the great explanation. We were going to have one of our employees search through Hong Kong for these coins. Now we know not to bother her.
And Ajaan, with the raw rua, Krung Thep Mahanakorn is wonderful. Great place to walk; great place to live. Unless my 20-year old daughter, who still lives in the states, decides to get married, I don't think I'll ever go back there.
Just Having Fun,
and lots of it in Bangkok (aka Krung Thep Maha nakorn)
