| Abstract | Jardines, the Princely Hong, has been synonymous with colonial Hong Kong from its drug-running beginnings. Today, along with the other big three - Swire, Wharf and Hutchison - it owns a goodly portion of Greater China Incorporated. The author traces the rise of the four business empires and speculates on the fortunes of the still-very-British Jardines and Swire after the handover. |
