Tom.com Strategic Partner be Decided Soon
Jan 25,2000 - 18:56:16 HKT
Cheung Kong (0001) chairman Mr Li Ka-shing said several companies have expressed their interest in becoming strategic partners of Tom.com. He said Pacific Century CyberWorks (1186) is considering the purchase of Tom.com's shares and a decision will be made soon. The shareholding to be owned by CyberWorks, however, will not exceed 10 per cent, he added.
Mr Li said Hutchison Whampoa (0013) had taken international factors into account before making the website investment. The prospective alliance between Cable & Wireless HKT (0008) and Singapore Telecommunications will not affect the business of Hutchison. As Tom.com has a wide range of businesses and income sources are rich, he anticipates that it will not suffer from losses.
