OUE subsidiary ordered to pay $1.23m after losing lawsuit

The company is moving to appeal the court decision.

A ruling from the Intermediate People’s Court of Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province was passed in favor of individual claimant David Lin who filed a suit against OUE Lippo Healthcare’s downstream Chinese subsidiary, Wuxi New District Phoenix Hospital Co. Ltd., ordering the hospital to pay $1.23m (RMB6m) to Lin.

According to OUE’s press release, Lin claims that he granted Wuxi a loan on March 2012 and is expecting due compensation of the outstanding balance including default interest under an entrusted loan arrangement.

Lin had filed a suit on August against Wuxi and another Chinese OUE subsidiary, Shanghai Yilin Medical Management Consulting before the Shanghai Pudong New District Courts.

Lin similarly claims that he injected capital into Shanghai Yilin in exchange for a 71% stake.

OUE adds that they are moving to appeal the case.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
