Family and Food: Pillars of Asian Business

For families throughout Asia, meals are a central event. It is also likely that more business deals are concluded in dining rooms than boardrooms. This program examines the importance of family and food to Asian business sensibilities. The program looks at Dr. Geoffrey Yeh and his children, who run Hsin Chong, one of Hong Kong’s biggest construction firms; and Dato’ Hamdan Mohamad, a major shareholder and chief executive of Ranhill, Malaysia’s biggest engineering consulting firm and designers of the tallest building in the world. (27 minutes)
