EVA Air's owning family airs it's dirty laundry

Ousted head refuses to stay on as EVA Air pilot - The China Post

The son of EVA's recently deceased Chairman's second wife had been running EVA Air. While the children of the Chairman's first wife had apparently been running Evergreen Marine (parent company of EVA Air) and Evergreen Hotels.

After the Chairman passed away he declared himself the new Chairman of the entire group, by virtue of his Dad's will. Much to the surprise of the rest of the family who promptly removed him from his self promoted position (but allowed him to remain as a pilot for EVA Air, a position Chang the younger refused) and declared that the Old Man had said no such thing.

I guess the Courts in Taiwan will have to find out what the late Chairman's will actually said.

Wonder how all this infighting will affect Evergreen Marine Corporation, its hotels and EVA Air, especially as Chang the younger was seen as a visionary leader for EVA Air.
