History
Hong Kong Tin Limited was registered in 1927 in England to acquire mines or rubber interests anywhere in the world, but it carried out tin ore mining in Selangor, West Malaysia. Harrisons and Crosfield and Harrisons Malaysian Plantations Berhad (CLC/B/112-080) acted as agents and secretaries until 1983. In 1982 the company was re-registered as a PLC (public limited company).
In 1984/5 Hong Kong Tin PLC became a subsidiary of Hong Kong Tin Corporation (Malaysia) Berhad (a Malaysian registered public investment holding and management company), which was known as YTL Corporation Berhad from 1988. From 1985 Hong Kong Tin's mining activities were dormant and it acted only as a management consultancy.
