	Li Ka-shing: the toll collector - Business - Business - smh.com.au
		From time to time, Li has not shrunk from capitalising on stockmarket fads, as with his float of internet service provider tom.com when Asia had its belated version of the American tech-stock boom, and Cheung Kong Life Sciences, a biotech firm that still doesn't seem to know what to do with the money it raised.
		With these hallmark deals, Li Ka-shing was top of the heap in Hong Kong - emphasised by his employment of a British blueblood, Simon Murray, as one of his first chief executives at Hutchison Whampoa, and the scuttling of British flagships HSBC and Jardine Matheson to offshore corporate registries as the handover to China approached.
		Li's close relationship with Hong Kong's political power was emphasised by the involvement of Tung Chee-hwa, the shipping tycoon who later became the first Chinese-appointed chief executive to replace colonial governors in 1997, as a minor investor in the $US2 billion Oriental Plaza development in Beijing's prime retail district, Wanfujing, in the mid-1990s.
