Biography

Malaysian investor Kie Chie Wong, who has lived in Australia since the 1980s, gets the bulk of his wealth from a minority stake in Fortescue Metals Group.

A longtime backer of billionaire Andrew Forrest, Wong once held a 26.5% stake in Fortescue, for which he paid about $1 million in 2003.

Wong was part of a Malaysian consortium, which bought an Australian realtor in 1988.

He reportedly hails from a Sarawak timber family in Malaysia.

Wong and his wife, Ann Pin Lim, also own a farm south of Sydney.
