The Kwok family of Hong Kong ranks No. 2 on our annual ranking of Asia’s wealthiest business families, with a fortune of $33 billion, followed by Chearavanont family of Thailand (31.7 billion), and Hartono family of Indonesia ($31.3 billion).
Rounding out the top five is South Korea’s Lee family, which controls the formidable Samsung empire, with a combined net wealth of $26.6 billion. The Ambani family is now the richest family in Asia. Ambanis alone owns nearly 17% of the total $463 billion fortune that the top 20 richest families in Asia own.
