HF: I would like to thank IDJ for sending to me a newspaper article about K.P. Chao which regrettably I was unable to use in this article as the script was too small for me to read.
HF: Chao Kuang Piu (24th November 1920 – 12th March 2021) was a Hong Kong based Chinese industrialist, sometimes referred to as Hong Kong’s ”Wool Magnate” given his involvement in Hong Kong’s garment industry. He was one of the co-founders of Dragonair, Hong Kong’s first Chinese-owned airline, which was subsequently acquired by Cathay Pacific.
