The plasma oscillations of the two-dimensional electron-hole system in the presence of a strong perpendicular magnetic field are studied. Only the intra-Landau level excitations are taken into account when the electrons and holes are situated on their lowest Landau levels, the filling factor $v^2$ being less than 1. The ground state of the two-dimensional e-h system is supposed to be the electron-hole liquid. The dispersion relations for the optical and acoustical plasmon modes were obtained. The influence of the supplementary in-plane electric field acting side by side with the strong perpendicular magnetic field is discussed.
