The Australian newspaper's latest annual list of
Asia's 100 richest families shows that Mr Robert Kuok,
with $6.8 billion, is the wealthiest
MELBOURNE -- Mr Robert Kuok Hock Nien, with assets
amounting to US$4 billion (S$6.8 billion), is
Malaysia's wealthiest billionaire, according to The
Australian newspaper's annual list of Asia's 100
richest families released yesterday. He ranks 18th in
Asia, dropping from the 14th position he held last
year, based on the list compiled by the newspaper's
international business editor Geoff Hiscock.
Next in Malaysia comes Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong of Genting
Bhd with US$3.2 billion, who is ranked 22nd.
He is followed by Mr Quek Leng Chan and family of the
Hong Leong Group with US$2.5 billion (29th in Asia);
Tan Sri Vincent Tan Chee Yioun of Berjaya Group with
US$2 billion (42nd); Tan Sri Tiong Hiew King of
Rimbunan Hijau Group with US$1.6 billion (58th) and
Tan Sri Francis Yeoh Sock Ping of YTL Corp with US$1.4
billion (65th).
They are followed by Tan Sri Teh Hong Piow of Public
Bank with US$1.1 billion (73rd); Tan Sri Tajudin Ramli
of Technology Resources Industries and Malaysia
Airlines with US$1 billion (85th); Tan Sri Khoo Kay
Peng of MUI with US$1 billion (93rd) and the children
of the late Tan Sri Yahaya Ahmad of DRB-Hicom with
US$1 billion (99th).
Malaysians, who missed out this year, after being
ranked in Asia's top 100 last year are Mr Yam Teck
Seng and family of Samling Corp, who was ranked 73rd
last year; Tan Sri William Cheng of Lion Group (88th);
Mr T. Ananda Krishnan of Tanjong Plc and Binariang
(95th) and Tan Sri Rashid Hussain of Rashid Hussain
Bhd (97th).
The richest in Singapore are Mr Kwek Leng Beng and
family of City Development and Hong Leong Group, with
US$3.3 billion (21st in Asia), followed by Mr Ng
Teng-fong of Far East Organisation and Sino Land in
Singapore and Hongkong, with US$2.9 billion (27).
They are followed by Tan Sri Khoo Teck Puat of
Goodwood Hotel with US$2.4 billion (33rd); Mr Lee Seng
Wee and family of Overseas-Chinese Banking Corp with
US$1.5 billion (62nd) and Mr Wee Cho Yaw of United
Overseas Bank with US$1.2 billion (69).
The list also showed the Japanese dominating, with
Internet twins Masayoshi Son and Yasumitsu Shigeta at
the top of the table.
Another 16 Japanese billionaires figured in the first
50 names on the list. Only Hongkong, with 17 names
overall, came close.
Between them, Mr Son (US$38 billion) and Mr Shigeta
(US$30 billion) have close to US$68 billion from their
companies Softbank and Hikari Tsushin.
According to Mr Hiscock, they had eclipsed the man who
topped the list since it began in 1996 -- the Sultan
of Brunei, who now ranks third with US$24 billion.
"One big reason for his decline: the US$3.1 billion
exposure of the sultanate's key cash generator, the
Brunei Investment Agency, to the collapsed
construction group, Amedeo Development Corp,
controlled by the Sultan's brother, Prince Jefri," Mr
Hiscock said.
The other big movers on the billionaires' list are the
Indian information-technology entrepreneurs.
They include Mr Azim H. Premji, the man who turned a
small western India food company into the nation's
biggest IT player.
He is in the top 10 with US$10 billion, making him the
richest Indian.
He is in the same league as the top 10 stalwarts, like
Hongkong's Li Ka-shing (US$10 billion) and the three
Kwok brothers (Walter, Thomas and Raymond) of Sun Hung
Kai Properties (US$10 billion). -- Bernama
