Who is behind paying for the legal expenses of the retail investors in the PCCW privitisation case?
The court will announce its decision on PCCW privatisation next Monday. Media has been wondering who the secret persons are in paying for the lawyers representing the minority shareholders. It has been estimated that the legal cost for two day court case can easily be a few million hong kong dollar, given the high caliber of the legal teams involved.
The secret persons probably have some personal grudge on Richard Li? According to Apple Daily, the secret person and the minority shareholders are linked by Long Hair Leung Kwok Hung. Furthermore, it reveals that one of the secret persons is Mr. Chong Wing Cheung, a mentor of “Ah Lek” Chan Pak Cheung. And on radio tonight, some people thought that the boss of the Emperor Group, Yeung Sau Sing, may be one of the secret persons. Maybe the Isabella Leong-Richard Li saga still pisses Mr. Yeung off.
