GETTING THE DAUGHTERS of a number of Hong Kong’s business elite together for any photo shoot was a concept easier from the conception compared to the execution. But after months of e-mails and call calls, amid the juggling of job, travel and family commitments, the date found its way to early June at one of city’s most chic cafes from the up-and-coming Western district.
Then came the last-minute schedule changes: One rushed from the construction site in China, then dashed off early to deliver an address; another was required to leave before diary for an urgent meeting; along with a third was due during the office by 5 p.m., though it was Friday. These are not ladies of leisure.
But over dessert and later champagne, amid oohs and ahs at jewelry and clothes, the ladies swapped stories about their lives and work, which run from services (Winnie Chiu heads Dorsett Hospitality, portion of father David Chiu’s China Consortium International; Stanley ho daughter, daughter of casino magnate Stanley Ho, is involved in the family’s hotel business as well as holding down the CEO job at Poly Auction Macau) to property (Gigi Chao is vice chairman on the family’s Cheuk Nang Holdings) and from shipping (Sabrina Chao chairs family-owned Wah Kwong Maritime Transport) to tippling (Lili Ma, daughter of Ping A coverage Chairman and CEO Peter Ma, is director of Mayfair Fine Wines). Yen Kuok, youngest offspring of Malaysian-Chinese tycoon Robert Kuok, has website Guiltless, which sells secondhand luxury goods.
As is often the case among Asia’s prominent commercial clans, an online of ties connects the audience: Chiu, 36, and Sabrina Chao, 42, are sisters-in-law; Gigi Chao, 37, and Sabrina Chao are cousins; Sabrina Ho Chiu Yeng, 25, is besties with Chiu’s youngest sister and has known Yen Kuok, 26, since childhood; and Ma, 34, is friends with another of Chiu’s sisters.
