But to get to the point, all these asian values lead to is bad corporate governance and a strong feeling that small shareholders are to be ignored. See here for a better report on it. I quote:
ACGA marks down Singapore for limited disclosure of director remuneration, a lack of legal remedies for investors and continuing use of discounted stock options.
However, even top-ranked Hong Kong lags way behind rival markets in the US and Europe in terms of corporate governance. Hong Kong is criticised for allowing reporting deadlines to remain well below international best practice, for inadequate continuous disclosure of price sensitive information and an “artificially designed” and weak definition of independent directors.
Long way to go!
All this to be taken with a grain of piquant salt!!!
