About Chao Teng-hsiung
Chao Teng-hsiung started Farglory Land, one of Taiwan's largest real estate developers, in 1978 and is still its largest shareholder.
Farglory Land is the flagship unit of Farglory Group, whose interests include financial and retail services, air-cargo logistics and hospitality.
Chao also controls Farglory FTZ Investment Holding, Farglory Life Insurance and Farglory Hotel.
Eldest son Wen-Chia, also known as Frank, took over as Farglory Land chairman in 2014 amid a corruption scandal involving Chao.
