Y K Pao

ISBN: 988808383X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Sir Y. K. Pao (Pao Yue-kong, 1918–1991), rose from modest origins to become, by late 1979, the world’s largest private shipowner. His Hong Kong-based company World-Wide Shipping diversified into property, hotels, retail, media, telecommunications, airlines and banking — a hugely influential business empire at a time of rapid regional growth. A philanthropist with extensive international connections, Pao became an unofficial Chinese ambassador at large, forging a strong relationship with the architect of China’s reform, Deng Xiaoping, at the dawn of China’s economic transformation and during the discussions about Hong Kong’s future. Anna Pao Sohmen was at her father’s side during important events and key meetings with leaders around the world. In this affectionate yet unsentimental account, she recounts the pivotal role played by her father at a key historical juncture and the balance he struck between Chinese and British allegiance, between business and politics, and between capitalism and socialism. “Sir Y. K. Pao made many selfless contributions to China’s modernization, in diplomacy, education, and politics....He specially emphasized the need to sustain foreign investment and prevent the outflow of capital and talent regarding the return of Hong Kong to China, in order to maintain social stability....Sir Y. K. Pao indeed played a unique role during Hong Kong’s handover to China. He helped facilitate communication between the PRC and British governments in the negotiations of Hong Kong’s sovereignty by utilizing his special relationship with senior British and Chinese officials. Sir Y. K. Pao deserves to be called “the Unofficial Ambassador” between China and the United Kingdom.” — Lu Ping, former Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council of the People’s Republic of China “Only one other person outside of mainland China, Y. K. Pao, and no other political leader had bonded with Deng the way Lee (Kuan Yew) did . . . From Deng’s perspective, what made Lee and Y. K. Pao attractive was their extraordinary success in dealing with practical issues, their first-hand contacts with world leaders, their knowledge of world affairs, their grasp of long-term trends, and their readiness to face facts and speak the truth as they saw it.” — Ezra F. Vogel in Deng Xiaoping and the Transformation of China
Hong Kong Takes Flight
Author: John D. WongPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674301137
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
Commercial aviation took shape in Hong Kong as the city developed into a powerful economy. Rather than accepting air travel as an inevitability in the era of global mobility, John Wong argues that Hong Kong’s development into a regional and global airline hub was not preordained. By underscoring the shifting process through which this hub emerged, Hong Kong Takes Flight aims to describe globalization and global networks in the making. Viewing the globalization of the city through the prism of its airline industry, Wong examines how policymakers and businesses asserted themselves against international partners and competitors in a bid to accrue socioeconomic benefits, negotiated their interests in Hong Kong’s economic success, and articulated their expressions of modernity.
