Interview: Tom Cheung Ling-fung, chief executive of Hui Xian Reit

Tom Cheung Ling-fung, chief executive of Hui Xian Real Estate Investment Trust, was among the first Hong Kong executives to relocate to the mainland in the early 1990s, and he's seen first-hand some of the dramatic changes the economy has undergone in the past two decades.
