Ng Swee Hong (1935 - September 16, 2006) was a Malaysian Chinese businessman who founded Pacific Andes company. Ng Swee Hong moved to Singapore in 1963 where he amalgamated interests that ranged from trading rice and other commodities and chartering out cargo vessels to running a shrimp and fish business in Taiwan. He also dabbled in local real estate. However, a series of corporate bankruptcies in Singapore sent the stock and real estate markets crashing in the early 1980s, and the Ng family found itself wiped out with close to $30 million in debt. The Ngs sold everything in the family and moved to Hong Kong in 1985. They soon activated the shell of Pacific Andes. In its early life the company imported fish from India, Pakistan and South America and sold it to Taiwan. This was the germ of what became its global fishing business. Pacific Andes took on exporting shrimp to the U.S. and U.K. from Taiwan and China. The company grew into a large fishing conglomerate and raised several issues and were monitored by various governments. 〔(BBC: The Alphabet Boats - Illegal longline fishing )〕〔()〕 Ng remained as chairman until his death in 16 September 2006. == Notes == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ng Swee Hong」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
