Lew Mon-hung, BBS (, born November 1948), nicknamed "Dream Bear" derived from his name in Chinese,〔 is a Hong Kong businessman who is the former deputy chairman and executive director of Pearl Oriental Oil Limited. As a pro-Beijing businessman, he was deputy to the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference from 2008 to 2013 and was an outspoken politician and a high-profile supporter of Leung Chun-ying during the Hong Kong Chief Executive election, 2012. The relationship of the two soured after the election and he turned against Leung. == Biography == Lew was born in Taishan, Guangdong in 1948. In 1973, he smuggled to Hong Hong Kong by swimming and took a job at a stainless steel factory and became its head. In 1976, he joined a Japanese futures contract company as a broker. He rose to the chief advisor for the C.A. Pacific Forex Limited (CAPFL). He later turned into energy industry and became the executive director of the Smart Rich Energy Finance (Holdings) Limited. In 2009, he became the deputy chairman and executive director of Pearl Oriental Oil Limited. Lew was a part-time member of the Central Policy Unit from 2006 to 2008 and Commission on Strategic Development from 2009 to 2012. He was appointed as a National committee member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference representing Hong Kong, serving in that post from 2008 until 2013, when he lost his seat.〔 From 2011, he was also member of the Election Committee through the Religious Sub-sector. Lew was initially considered a high-profile supporter of Leung Chun-ying〔 early in the 2012 Hong Kong Chief Executive Election. However, after Leung was elected, Lew made a series of allegations against Leung, including that Leung had failed to honour his promise to nominate Lew as the vice-chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and that Leung had reneged on appointing Lew to the Executive Council. Lew was arrested by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) on 25 February 2013 on charges of perverting the course of justice when he was alleged of sending letter to Leung, asking for stop ICAC into investigating him.〔〔〔Siu, Beatrice (22 August 2013).

''The Standard''〕 In October 2013, Lew was once again arrested, and was charged with conspiracy to defraud and money laundering along with two executives of Pearl Oriental Oil and a third person.〔Luk, Eddie (8 October 2013).
