HONG KONG (Reuters) -The chairman of defaulted Chinese developer Kaisa Group returned to mainland China from Hong Kong for the first time in almost a decade to get regulatory approval for an offshore debt restructuring, two sources familiar with the matter said. Chairman Kwok Ying Shing travelled to the southern city of Shenzhen, where Kaisa is based, for talks with officials about two months ago and is still there, one of the industry sources close to the company said. "It is a critical step for the restructuring," the person said, referring to Kwok meeting regulators as the company faces a liquidation petition in a Hong Kong court on Monday.
