The Chief Executive of ALIBABA, Daniel Zhang, who took over the leadership of the Internet giant from Jack Ma, asserts that despite the political unrest in Hong Kong, the city has a “bright future” and he described Hong Kong as “one of the world’s most important financial centres.” Indeed, the listing by ALIBABA will provide Hong Kong with a much-needed boost.
ALIBABA has grown from an online marketplace into an e-commerce giant with commercial interest ranging from financial services to artificial intelligence, among others.
