Identities of pangolin dinner attendees named

The identity of a Hong Kong businessman who attended a dinner event in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region in 2015 at which pangolin meat was served has been confirmed.

The organizing committee of a Hong Kong entrepreneurs' investment mission to Guangxi released a statement via local media, saying Calvin Lee Ka-wo's personal actions have nothing to do with the mission.

Lee Ka-wo is the son of a former chairman of a watch company. His post on Sina Weibo was published on July 15, 2015, including photos and text reading: "Bureau Chief Li and Secretary Huang invited us to the office in Guangxi to cook pangolin. It was my first time eating it and it tasted great."
