T se Ping, also known by her Chinese name Zheng Xiangling, is a Chinese pharmaceutical billionaire. Her fortune is derived from her family's massive stake in Sino Biopharmaceutical, one of China's largest and most successful drugmakers. She is the wife of Dhanin Chearavanont, the senior chairman of Thailand's Charoen Pokphand (CP) Group, one of Asia's most powerful conglomerates. Dhanin was the founder of Sino Biopharmaceutical, and the company has been run by their children.
Tse Ping serves as an executive director and vice chairwoman of the company. Her four children—two sons and two daughters—are all senior executives at the firm. The company has a strong focus on developing and marketing treatments for liver diseases, particularly hepatitis, which is a major health concern in China. The family's combined stake in the Hong Kong-listed pharmaceutical giant is the source of their immense, multi-billion dollar fortune, making them one of the wealthiest families in the global healthcare industry.
