IAG NOV 2019年11月 亞博匯 90 2019 POWER 50 CONTINUING a family tradition dating back to 1965 when his grandfather, Lim Goh Tong, first founded Genting Group, 35-year- old Lim Keong Hui now finds himself well on his way to assuming the mantle of company leader, just as his father Lim Kok Thay did in 2003. The succession plan kicked into gear in January when the younger Lim was appointed Deputy CEO of Malaysian-listed Genting Bhd, Genting Malaysia Bhd and Genting Plantations Bhd. In March, he took on the same role at Genting Hong Kong, Genting Group’s casino cruise ship arm and joint venture partner in Philippines IR Resorts World Manila. That leaves only Genting Singapore, operator of Resorts World Sentosa, as the last remaining subsidiary over which Lim Keong Hui is yet to hold any sway. Nevertheless, he is being ushered into the upper echelons of the family business at a hectic time, with Genting Berhad currently developing the US$4 billion Resorts World Las Vegas while overseeing developments across its vast global empire. Genting Malaysia is in the midst of a US$2.3 billion capital reinvestment program at its flagship Malaysian IR, Resorts World Genting, aimed at boosting both local and international visitation while it is also embroiled in complicated dealings in the United States relating to the acquisition of a 49% stake in loss-making New York casino Resorts World Catskills via the family trust. At least Lim has known of his future plans for some time now, having first joined the company more than a decade ago and sitting on the parent company board since 2003. 現年 35歲的林拱輝延續自1965年其祖父林梧桐創立雲頂集團起的家族傳統，與 其父親林國泰於2003年時一樣，已經在為承繼公司領導大位舖路。 這個接班大計於1月正式啟動，當時林拱輝被委任為在馬來西亞上市的雲 頂有限公司、雲頂馬來西亞有限公司及雲頂種植有限公司的副行政總裁，並於 三月坐上雲頂集團的娛樂場和遊輪分支雲頂香港，以及合組菲律賓綜合度假村 馬尼拉雲頂世界營運商的合夥公司的相同職位。 這讓營運新加坡雲頂世界的雲頂新加坡成為雲頂系中唯一一間林拱輝未 有插手其中的子公司。可是，他現已在短時間被領進家族生意的高層，現在雲頂 有限公司就正發展價值40億美元的拉斯維加斯雲頂世界，而林拱輝亦需要負責 公司那覆蓋全球的龐大王國的發展。 單單雲頂馬來西亞本身，就正在對其旗艦綜合度假村項目—位於馬來西 亞的馬來西亞雲頂世界—進行花費達23億美元的資產再投資計劃。該計劃的目 的，是為了增加本地及國際訪客數字。同時，該公司亦正透過其家族基金，在美 國進行一項複雜的磋商，以收購位於紐約那正在虧蝕的娛樂場度假村Resorts World Catskills的49%股份。 但最少林拱輝對於其未來計劃都已經知悉了一段時間。他在超過十年前 就已經加入公司，並從2003年起就已經在母公司的董事會中出任職位。 CLAIMS TO FAME • In line to eventually take over control of Genting Group from father Lim Kok Thay • Elevated to leadership positions in three Genting companies in 2019 名成事跡 • 根據承繼順位最終將從其父林國泰手上取得雲頂集團控制權 • 於2019年在三間雲頂系公司中升任領導職務 32 DEPUTY CEO & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Genting Berhad DEPUTY CEO & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Genting Malaysia DEPUTY CEO & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Genting Hong Kong 副行政總裁兼執行董事 雲頂有限公司 副行政總裁兼執行董事 雲頂馬來西亞有限公司 副行政總裁兼執行董事 雲頂香港有限公司 LIM KEONG HUI 林拱輝 POWER SCORE 權能指數 : 910 POSITION LAST YEAR 去年排名 : NONE 無
