[edit] Wealthiest

Is he the wealthiest person in Hong Kong? That would be worth mentioning. --Jiang

[edit] Two quotes

Two Quotes: Li founded Hutchison Whampoa and... and That company would eventually acquire Hutchison Whampoa Limited in... . Founded or acquired, which one is it? 213.235.195.136 06:20, 29 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Acquire, he first founded the company now known as Cheung Kong Holdings, and then he acquired Hutchison Whampoa through Cheung Kong; I think Cheung Kong is also the first Chinese firm to acquire a Foreign 'Hong' in Hong Kong. --richeyxx13:05, 31 Dec 2005 (CST)

[edit] Major cleanup

Major cleanup: tried to bring the whole article together stylistically; removed all the (extensive) poor grammar that I could find; rewrote the last section; added links to Li's two major companies. --Shannonr 05:41, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Subjectivity

Was this written by his PR staff? The man has accomplished a lot but maybe it could be stated in a more objective manner. I won't chang it myself, as I am not well aquainted with the man, but I felt it was worth bringing up. Shouta 05:05, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Agreed, the whole article reads like a high school students homework essay.

[edit] The wealthiest man in Asia

The statement of the discussion heading is presently made in the article. However, the Forbes Magazine article which in the next sentence is refered to as recognizing Shing as the tenth wealthiest man in the world has two other Asians higher on the list: Lakshmi Mittal of India in fifth place (living in the UK though) and Prince Alwaleed of Saudi Arabia in spot number eight. I will thus remove the statement. /Dcastor 20:45, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My model other than my Dad

A hero ever in China, who has become a model other than my Dad. I will learn whatever I need to take from his experience, trying my whole life to take 1percent of his wealth. It sounds impossible at the moment, but it will come ture hopelly in future. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.195.136.7 (talk) 02:23, 31 January 2007 (UTC).
