Forbes: Daughter of real estate tycoon becomes China's top rich
BEIJING, Oct. 8 (Xinhua) -- The 26-year-old Yang Huiyan, daughter of a property developer, has topped this year's Forbes list of the richest people in China with a net worth of 16 billion U.S. dollars.
Yang also becomes the richest woman in Asia, the magazine said in a statement on Monday.
Yang is one of the three daughters of Yang Guoqiang, a co-founder of the Country Garden Holdings Company Limited, and she acquired her father's shareholding of the Guangdong-based property development firm in 2005.
The debut of the company at the Hong Kong stock market this year has made billionaires of Yang and four others, said the magazine.
Another developer Hui Wing Mau took the second place of China's top rich with a net worth of 7.3 billion U.S. dollars and Guo Guangchang, chairman of a manufacturing, retailing and real estate company ranked the third.
