is a good book.
And
an important one.
For
decades, entrepreneurs have been eulogised in the popular press. At
a time when real heroes are hard to find, it is the entrepreneur,
the dynamic go-getting risk taker, who has become the hero of free
enterprise. At the cutting edge of the British entrepreneurial community
are the Asian businesses featured in this book. It is a fascinating
tale. It takes in businesses from manufacturing to finance, from food
to hotels, from pharmaceuticals to fashion. It includes first and
second generation achievers. It provides the definitive guide to who’s
who in the Asian business world.
This
book illustrates the triumphs and challenges facing these individuals,
how disasters were overcome and how they fought against the odds to
be outstanding role models for anyone interested in business or making
money. We tell a story of grit and determination to succeed, we draw
out the lessons so anyone whether budding or existing entrepreneurs,
Asian or not can learn from these amazing individuals.
