David Webb, a renowned investor and activist, discusses his journey and contributions to Hong Kong's corporate governance and transparency. He talks about his background as a schoolboy investor, how he got to Hong Kong and about how he built his nonprofit platform, webb-site.com, which provides extensive databases and news analysis. Webb emphasized the need for reforms, including abolishing stamp duty, implementing a class action system, and improving corporate governance. He criticizes the government's over-regulation and central planning, advocating for a return to Hong Kong's laissez-faire economy. Webb also discusses the challenges of maintaining his website post-illness and the importance of public data transparency. The discussion is introduced by FCC president Lee Williamson and moderated by veteran journalist Philip Bowring.
