这起风波源于自称来自迪拜统治家族的男子“阿里”（Sheikh Ali Rashed Ali Saeed Al Maktoum），近月开始高调现身香港。除了接受外媒访问时扬言会斥资5亿美元（6亿7600万新元）在香港开设家族办公室进行投资，3月27日更获邀请出席港府高度重视的“裕泽香江”高峰论坛担任演讲嘉宾。期间他除获香港恒生大学委任为荣誉教授，并获特首李家超亲自接见。港府在官方新闻稿中，指阿里王子是迪拜统治家族成员。
阿聯酋杜拜統治家族成員Sheikh Ali Rashed Ali Saeed Al Maktoum（簡稱「阿里王子」）計劃來港開設家族辦公室，啟動禮煞停延後，被揭發他原來是出道歌手Alira。 阿里王子家族辦公室的兩名高層，執行董事兼首席運營官程章和、副主席兼首席執行官麥懿睿，亦曾經改名，二人均擔任多間本港註冊公司董事。其中程章和曾經營多款虛擬貨幣、區塊鏈、NFT，公司曾遭美國證監會警告；麥懿睿代表內地公司中唐空鐵，建議在東九龍建設「空鐵」，不過該公司牽涉多宗案件，列入最高人民法院公示的失信公司，旗下子公司被凍結股權。

The firm is among a number of China's largest developers battered by a crisis in the country's property sector and struggling under a mountain of debt, fuelling concerns about the stability of the world's second-largest economy.
"At the request of the company, trading in the shares of the company on the stock exchange will be suspended ... pending publication of the 2023 Annual Results," Country Garden said in a Hong Kong exchange filing.
The real estate behemoth on Thursday postponed the expected release of its 2023 results, saying it "needs to collect more information to make appropriate accounting estimates and judgments".
"Due to the continuous volatility of the industry, the operating environment the group (is) confronting is becoming increasingly complex," the statement added.
Chinese property firms Modern Land, Central China Management and Ronshine China were among several other firms whose shares were also suspended in Hong Kong.
Country Garden in 2022 suffered its first full-year loss - more than 6 billion yuan (US$844 million) - since listing in 2007.
The company has defaulted on offshore payments and is facing a winding-up petition in Hong Kong.
The petition, filed in February, came weeks after Hong Kong's High Court granted a similar petition against developer Evergrande, kickstarting its offshore assets liquidation and management replacement.
Country Garden - China's seventh-largest developer in terms of sales last year - has incurred debts estimated in June at 1.36 trillion yuan (US$191 billion).
因无法理清财务和会计估算或账目审计延迟等问题而未能在香港交易所规定的3月31日最后期限前公布业绩的公司中，包括碧桂园(Country Garden Holdings)、中原建业(Central China Management)和当代置业(Modern Land (china)等知名企业。其中一些公司因审计费用未能达成共识而更换核数师。
