Gigi Chao Sze-tsung (right) and her civil partner Sean Eav (left) – we honestly thought at first that the one on the left was her father!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One of Hong Kong\u2019s richest men has offered a reward of nearly \u00a340 million to the man who can woo his lesbian daughter, reports the Daily Telegraph<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cecil Chao Sze-tsung, a property magnate, announced the HK$500 million bounty this week after reports that his daughter Gigi Chao, 33, a University of Manchester graduate, entered a civil partnership in France with Sean Yeung, her girlfriend of seven years, who also uses the name Sean Eav, on April 4.<\/p>\n

The Facebook profile of Miss Chao, an architecture graduate, reads: \u201cHelicopter pilot. Social entrepreneur. Creator of expressions in colour and emotion.\u201d It also describes her as an executive director at her father\u2019s Hong Kong-based property firm, Cheuk Nang.<\/p>\n

Miss Chao has yet to comment on her father\u2019s offer but her Facebook and Twitter accounts have been bombarded by people keen to become her friend. \u201cNo longer accepting Facebook friend requests \u2026 sorry,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy father took a hands-off approach in parenting,\u201d Miss Chao said of her father in a 2007 interview for HK Magazine. \u201cI see him as a friend more than a father. My parents never pressure me with high expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Chao made headlines in 2003 when his Rolls-Royce caught fire while he and his girlfriend were inside. The tycoon has never married and once claimed to have had \u201cintimate relations\u201d with about 10,000 women.<\/p>\n

Miss Chao is one of three daughters born to Mr Chao by three different women.<\/p>\n

“I don’t mind whether he is rich or poor. The important thing is that he is generous and kind-hearted,” Mr Chao told the South China Morning Post, describing reports about his daughter’s civil partnership as “false”.<\/p>\n

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice said today:<\/p>\n

“An emotionally distant father, having loose relationships with women other than his daughter’s mother, is a classic theme in lesbian lifestories. According to reports, Miss Chao’s father has sadly not been the sort of fatherly male role model who would inspire his daughter’s emotional confidence in men as a group.<\/p>\n

“There are many testimonies of people who have walked away from the homosexual lifestyle and been released from same-sex attraction through the power of Jesus Christ.\u00a0 As the Bible says: ‘Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.’ (Psalm 37:4)\u00a0 But that person has to want to change, or if you prefer, the Lord has to place that desire on their heart, and they must fix their hopes in the Saviour of mankind.<\/p>\n

“So there is no question that it is do-able, but it is something that even \u00a340,000,000 cannot buy.”<\/p>\n

PRAY: For Gigi Chao, and for her father.\u00a0 May he turn from his philandering and she turn from her lesbianism by the grace of God and through the saving, healing power of the Lord Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
