Once the preserve of those not stylish enough for retail or slick enough for office, industrial real estate specialists lead Mingtiandi’s round-up of people moves this week as a GLP veteran teams up with a Li & Fung director to help the warehouse giant set up shop in Vietnam.

There’s also a new chairman at the parent company of developer China Resources Land and Hongkong Land appoints a new non-executive director from an Indonesian affiliate.

kent yang SLPKent Yang is now a Founding Partner at SEA Logistic Partners (SLP), an industrial property development and operation platform backed by GLP. Yang, who formerly served as President for China at GLP, set up the Ho Chi Minh City-based venture earlier this year, at around the same time that the company formerly known as Global Logistic Properties was backing the HK$7.2 billion privatisation of Hong Kong sourcing and distribution giant Li & Fung.

Cheung, who is a Li & Fung board member, takes on his responsibilities with the logistics real estate start-up while continuing to fulfill his role as Managing Partner at Taipei-based family office C2 Capital. Cheung, who holds JD and MBA degrees from Harvard University, is also co-founder and co-chairman of sportswear-maker JAMM Active and an Independent Non-Executive Director at New Focus Auto Tech Holdings, as well as serving on the boards of New Focus Auto Tech Holdings and Yucheng Technologies.

On 28 July, the comrades in charge of China Resources Group announced that Wang Xiangming has been appointed as the new chairman of the state-owned mainland conglomerate, replacing Fu Yuning, who is retiring.
