Tycoon keeps an eye on things

Lee Shau-kee, founder of Henderson Land Development, is happy staying with his grandchildren amid the Covid-19 virus but is keeping an eye on company affairs.

Lee Shau-kee has been retired since May 28 last year, with his sons Peter Lee Ka-kit and Martin Lee Ka-shing taking over as co-chairmen of Henderson Land Development.

"Lee Shau-kee is in very good health and plays with his grandchildren every day," youngest son Martin Lee said yesterday at the annual general meeting for Henderson Land Development.

Lee Shau-kee has enjoyed more time with his grandchildren due to the coronavirus pandemic, Martin Lee said, adding his father also asks about the company often.

The cochair said he usually consults his father on important matters.
