Mr Quek and a long-time business partner had entered into a deal with Taiwanese businessman Lee Heng-lung to acquire the bulk of the latter's claimed 60 per cent stake in holding company Pacific Distribution Investment (PDI), whose main asset is Pacific Sogo Department Stores, which has a total of 12 stores in Taiwan and mainland China.
