From a single resort in Phuket to a global hospitality brand, Banyan Group’s journey has been shaped by bold bets, tough decisions and a commitment to long-term values.
In this episode of “Managing Asia,” founders Ho Kwon Ping and Claire Chiang reflect on how they built the business, the realities of operating in a volatile industry and the principles that guided them through periods of uncertainty — including moments when the company’s survival was at risk.
They also discuss how sustainability shapes their decision-making, why they are willing to walk away from deals and how the next generation is preparing to take the business forward across Asia and beyond.
