Tatler ASIA'S MOST INFLUENTIAL - The Definitive List of People Shaping Asia
Introducing Asia’s Most Influential, our new vertical
Starting something new is never easy, especially with all the disruptions we have faced over the last two years. However, if there’s ever a time to highlight the people who have made and continue to make a positive change in society, it’s now.
We started Asia’s Most Influential with the aim of chronicling the people who shape the region through their positive impact. It took our editorial teams and management teams a good part of the year to come up with people who fit our criteria, research and vet their work, refine the list down to 300 names, and finally induct them into Asia’s Most Influential.
Launching today, our Flagship List features 300 of the most influential individuals in each of the markets we operate—Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Indonesia and the Philippines. These are the people pushing Asia forward, and this vertical is a place to discover, learn about, learn from and connect with the region’s most influential people.
The word “influential” means many different things. For us at Tatler, influential people means those who push for positive change and have relevance in their countries and beyond borders. From truth-seeking journalists to dynamic tech entrepreneurs and devoted philanthropists, our chosen honourees are those we ourselves aspire to be.
Our inaugural Asia’s Most Influential Flagship List spans industries and categories—19 to be exact—ranging from art to finance to sustainability. The result is a list with a diverse mix of individuals, influential in their own way. While you’ll spot familiar names—pillars of society most of whom are part of Hall of Fame—there are surprises to be found. The launch of Asia’s Most Influential is more than just releasing another list, it’s the first step in building a community committed to making Asia a place to thrive.

An acting legend, Tony Leung’s beautifully restrained, poignantly emotional performances have won him unparalleled respect
Profile
Widely acclaimed as Hong Kong’s greatest actor, Tony Leung’s stature in the Chinese-language movie world is second to none. Over a career lasting four decades, he has demonstrated huge versatility in his choice of roles, always bringing to them a pensive, soulful, restrained approach to acting, conveying intense emotion with minimal movement.
He started out as a comic actor on Hong Kong TV, breaking into films at the end of the 1980s. He is perhaps best known for his long term association with Hong Kong’s global star of arthouse filmmaking Wong Kar-wai, starring in seven of the auteur’s films, and winning best actor at the Cannes Film Festival for In the Mood for Love (2002). He has also worked with Zhang Yimou on Hero (2002) and Ang Lee on Lust, Caution (2007), and starred in epoch-making Hong Kong crime movies Hard Boiled (1992) and Infernal Affairs (2002). He recently broke into Hollywood with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021), in which he plays the protagonist’s villainous father.
Among the numerous awards he has received, he has been best actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards a record five times. Also popular as a singer, he is known as a quiet, intensely private person.
Tony Leung is married to fellow actor Carina Lau.
