Joseph Lau Net Worth


In 2001, Lau met a woman many years his junior, Yvonne Lui, and the couple had a daughter (born 2003) and a son (born 2010). During the second marriage, Lau also carried on a relationship with Chan Hoi-wan and the pair had a daughter (born 2008) and a son (born 2012). That same year, Lau and former public works chief Ao Man-long were involved in a bribery and money laundering case, in which both were accused and a trial was set for 2012-13. In January 2013, it was announced that the trial would be delayed (a second time) after Lau’s attorney reported that Lau was ill. The trial reportedly went forward in mid-2013 without the accused Joseph Lau during initial proceedings. In 2014, Joseph Lau stepped down as chairman and CEO of Chinese Estates Holdings of Hong Kong after he was found guilty of bribery and money laundering charges in March of 2014.
